Dylan Dog: Dead of Night - Page 3 - Blu-ray Forum

MyBlu-rayBrotherEd · 04-27-2011, 07:12 PM

I'm always amazed at the amount of positive things said on these boards. It looks like a fun movie to me. I doubt it will do very well at the B.O. tho, as I haven't seen a single ad on TV for it. . . . . and it is opening the same weekend as Fast Five.

I've seen a ton of ads but I don't think on the network channels during prime time. Yeah with Fast Five opening and this being limited I don't see a great BO intake. Really hope BD/DVD sales can help make a lot of the money back though.

If you hope it does well then make sure you get out and support it

. It will probably only be around for one week, two tops. If it's a dud they won't do any more.

I've seen Cemetery Man. I liked that one.

While not going as wide as something like Fast Five, it's still a wide release. It's set for 1,000 theaters this weekend. Fairly wide for something that will likely bomb. If it does 2-3 Million that would be incredibly impressive. Hell, 3 Million would be fantastic for this. I'm predicting $900,000.

I have also seen a ton of ads for this, but not on network TV. They've been on cable channels.

Yeah all the ads I see are from cable to. The budget was $35 million so hopefully they can make close or over that once it's out of theaters and been on home video for awhile. That's cool it's wider then I thought but still sucks it's not playing near me but will be a day 1 buy for sure.

Yeah, the release date is pretty terrible for this flick, unfortunately. A date earlier in the year or in the late summer would have been much better.

tommyboy81 · 05-04-2011, 12:01 AM

guess there's no love for this movie. The theaters here are already taken it out.

$754,000 for the weekend. Yeah thats a cause for concern

starbinger · 05-04-2011, 12:20 AM

Good movie I thought. Watched it alone while the rest of my staff watched Fast Five

TokyoLee · 05-04-2011, 12:37 AM

I was wondering if any one saw this and how was it? I wanted to see this but they are not playing it at all where I live.

Kryptonic · 05-04-2011, 09:19 AM

I caught it over the weekend. It was a solid effort. Routh was dependable and solid as usual, but Sam Huntington was hilarious. Perfect comedic timing. It's definitely a pretty good B-movie and I enjoyed it.

TokyoLee · 05-04-2011, 01:00 PM

That sounds good,I guess I'll pick it up on blu because no theater is playing this near me at all and I wanted to see this.

Ite · 05-06-2011, 07:02 PM

I was right, it bombed! It didn't even make 1 million dollars!

JB1986 · 05-06-2011, 07:32 PM

I saw it on Monday. I personally loved it, too bad its bombing. Brandon Routh was a terrific straight man and Sam Huntington was hysterical. It was a fun, somewhat cheesy, pretty campy, B-Grade creature feature. I had a blast with it.

BeardedNinjaGuy · 05-06-2011, 08:00 PM

Saw this over the weekend, not knowing what to expect.. It wasnt terrible, dragged a tad here and there, but had some decent laughs. Effects were kinda meh, but overall it was a decent watch.
