The Production budget was $110ml , hopefully the Jan 17 worldwide release will show better figures ....

This one is very interesting interview!

The sights and sounds of ‘Better Man’: How Robbie Williams was transformed into a monkey we can believe in.

VFX supervisor Luke Millar, cinematographer Erik A. Wilson, costume designer Cappi Ireland, and supervising sound editor Will Files join the chat. Gold Derby editor-in-chief hosts this webchat.

Great find Alex. Really interesting how the different parts came together ....

In Cineplexx Slovenia they reduced the projections from two to one per day already. The slot at 17.45 PM is usually 1/3 to 1/2 full from the online reservations in Ljubljana. But other venues look rather empty. I'm not sure why it is not picking up, the promo was as good as it could get.

In the cinema I went to last week there was about 20 people in the audience. I am going again this Thursday in my home city & at the moment there are only about seven seats pre-booked for the viewing I am going to , funny thing is I looked at other films for pre-bookings in the same cinema including Mufasa & Gladiator & they have hardly any bookings . I am wondering if it's due to Christmas & people are doing other things. We will know for sure with the general release later in the month .

Yes, I was totally surprised when I looked at the pre-bookings for the other movies . As a matter of interest my nephew told me that Ireland & the UK were the best movie goers in Europe , I kinda went "really" based on what I was seeing for myself but I did not want to burst his bubble :lol:

 

 

Anther thing was that we had a 16 year old with us & his Mom was non too pleased at the violence in the Knebworth part of the movie plus all the drug taking etc & did not think it was good for young peoples mental health

 

99% positive rating is really great . I am still pretty hopeful.

no idea -if this figure is positive or a total disaster?
