    Yes, Paranormal Activity sucks

    From the stories of people I thought it was any good, but not I realized and confirmed my first belief that it was lame....

    Pretty good for 11k production....

      It grossed around 70mil so far... So when you calculate the ROI, you get a big number So it probably is...

          I just saw a news story about it, $15k to make the movie, done in less than a week with no script and its taken over $80MM in the box office after 1MM people voted online for Paramount to take it from limited screenings to nationwide. Wow.

                  Coming down the pipe is a pretty damn revolutionary zombie flick that was made for under 100 bucks if I recall. Had film festivals up in arms and a super fucking high buzz.

                  There is a whole new breed of film makers that can really thank Kevin Smith for breaking that barrier. Hollywood is really paying attention to the indies out there with a camera and a story. They do not understand the concept of huge budgets, and huge to them is in the thousands not the hundreds of thousands or millions.

                  Pretty sure you could hand someone like Smith or any of these new people 500 million and a contract, they would send you film after film that makes money several times a year and it would barely touch the damn interest. They only spend the money if you force them.

                    Is it better or worse than Blair Witch Project? Not that BWP was any good, I'm just asking.

                          After watching this movie watch the official trailer you will notice it contains just about every action scene from the entire movie.. what you don't see in the trailer is the time passing and clock changing that is about it I swear!

                                    That move looks like a ten year old kid made it. it sucked.
                                    What the fuck, can't anyone hold a camera steady? Made me sick looking a that crap.

                                      Peeps talking about the ring, I hope you are refering to the jap one and not the shitty remake.

                                        What's that video of the kids that got 1 treat and were rewarded with another one in like 10 minutes if they sat there and didn't eat it? Anyways, basically if you're the type of impatient person to just gobble the treat and take off then yeah you probably won't like this movie, otherwise you might enjoy it a lot.

                                          I as well thought the movie was pretty stupid.

                                          I really wanted to be scared too.. for some reason horror flicks just don't do it for me. Not even trying to be a badass, as I would looove to be genuinely scared by a film. Is it my mind set that ruins horror movies for me? Maybe its the atmosphere of the movie theater that kills horror movies for me.

                                            yeah they even took elements from blair witch... the girl cops an attitude at one point, starts crying another time, same routine..

                                            not a bad flick overall once you realize its gonna be a steady cam situation most of the time..

                                            but the ROI is incredible.. was expecting to see someone do this after the success of the blair witch... Cloverfield tried but their budget was too big.

                                              Surely can't be any worse that Cloverfield, can it ???

                                              What a way to waste that fucking movie. How can you enjoy something if you can't see what the fucks happening and feel like shit watching it ? You can't...

                                                  I just saw a news story about it, $15k to make the movie, done in less than a week with no script and its taken over $80MM in the box office after 1MM people voted online for Paramount to take it from limited screenings to nationwide. Wow.
                                                  WG
                                                  so how do the studios justify showing this movie at the same price as others???

                                                  this is why i feel no shame when it comes to watching bootlegged movies.

                                                    I have my doubts that it only cost $15,000.

                                                    - the guy renovated his house for the movie
                                                    - the camera he used is listed for $15,000 alone
                                                    - even if he got a used camera, it does not include equipment

                                                      I don't think you are gonna count software and equipment, if anything, people most likely donated their time and skills for the production. where as you will pay an editor to do the work, you won't be paying for this software.

                                                      same thing goes with the actors, if its not a SAG movie, they don't have to pay normal acting rates to anyone so once again ppl can donate their time. people will act just for the credit and a free meal.

                                                        Depends the 100 dollar budget on that zombie film that after shock media is talking about actually cost 70 bucks. STORY
                                                        Anyways they used places like facebook and stuff to ask for help. Told people that they need shit like effects and stuff but to bring your own equipment. They didnt pay any actors and again used who could show up for free. The budget was spent on a crowbar, some tapes, and coffee and tea (basic type not Starbucks).
                                                        The movie did get crazy attention at Cannes.

                                                                    I was creeped out for a couple of days after seeing it.

They barely make shit on ticket sales anyways. Most of their cash comes from selling overpriced snack foods and soda.

                                                                                            this is why i feel no shame when it comes to watching bootlegged movies.
                                                                                            Why would you equate production cost with quality?

                                                                                            Also, when you pay for a movie ticket, you're taking a gamble on the finished product. It's easy enough for anyone to find out if its their kind of movie, with all of the media and reviews available these days.

                                                                                            Put money in the pockets of the filmmakers, whether you like an individual movie or not. I'm sure you probably see a movie you like once in a while.

The theatrical ending ended with her killing the bf on cam and then jumping at the cam looking possessed. There's a third ending which has only been screened once where she kills the bf off cam, walks back upstairs and slits her throat on cam.

                                                                                                  "I bet I could come up with 11k, get my semi-attractive girlfriend to act with me in it and make 70 million dollars"

                                                                                                  When you think about the alternative being an amateur porn tape that maybe you could get 200 for, its a nice thought.
                                                                                                  - As soon as I think up a good sig it's going here.
