Runaway to Remember Me

Robert in "Remember Me"
I don't think he has ever looked more beautiful.
Every shot. Every frame.
Perfection.

I saw RM...
I liked it.
I thought Robert was good.
I'm not sure I'm someone whose opinion
would really matter when it comes to Rob.
I think everything he does is brilliant.


Remember Me doesn't seem to be doing so great
at the box office.
I'm not an expert by any means.
My son told me about this site...
RottenTomatoes.com
It measures the percentage of positive reviews.
Remember Me had only 27%
Why?
No, it wasn't epic film-making...
But it was still pretty good.
Kinda sad. But it made you think.
And it has Robert Pattinson in almost every frame.

Why didn't all the "Twi-Hards" follow Robert
into Remember Me?
If you are a fan... You go see his movies.
Even when he's not Edward Cullen.
And that's part of the problem with Robert's fans.
They call him Edward.
They only want to see Edward.
They aren't interested in him outside of Twilight.
And that's sad...
Because Rob's best acting is going to be 
in movies where he's not Edward.
And it's a shame people will miss that.


The Runaways opened in limited theaters this weekend.
Which meant I didn't see it.
Which means I have to wait until April.
How did it do?
Depends on who you ask.
RottenTomatoes.com had it at 62%
That's pretty good.

I've heard lots of good things...
But then I tend to follow people who are
fans of Kristen Stewart.
So again... not really unbiased opinions.
I know I will go see it.
I guess only time will tell with this movie.
 What I want to know is this...
Why is there a 
WAR OF THE MOVIES?
Some Kristen fans want Remember Me to do poorly
so that The Runaways can beat it...
And of course...
We have some Robert fans blasting The Runaways
and saying it will NEVER beat Remember Me.
What.The.Fuck?
How can you even compare the movies?
WHY compare the movies?
RM is PG-13
TR is R-rated
RM is a doomed love story...
TR is a rock and roll biopic.
RM had a larger budget
Bigger advertising
TR is a small indie film
I don't get it.
The only thing the movies have in common
is the fact that each has a lead from Twilight.

I want BOTH movies to do well.
It's not one or the other.
Just because Remember Me does well
doesn't make The Runaways less of a movie.
Or vice-versa

Man, the whole Robert/Kristen bullshit
is so fucking out of control.
People will fucking argue over anything...
just for the sake of arguing.


And for the record...
RottenTomatoes.com gave New Moon 28%

And so it goes.

Bye for now.
