The Playlist - After a brutal year at the box office in 2011, with many seemingly sure-fire mvoies underperforming, the studios have been breathing a sigh of relief in 2012 so far. For each of the nine weekends of 2012, takings at U.S. theaters have been significantly higher than the equivalent weekends in previous years, and two movies -- "The Vow" and "Safe House" -- have already crossed the psychologically vital $100 million barrier, with "Dr. Seuss' The Lorax" a dead cert to join them by the end of next weekend.

The acclaimed sequel to a horror movie that was panned into the ground has been scaring up a storm on Netflix.
WASDuk's Chris Patton reviews yet another film by the Producers of Insidious and Texas Chainsaw Massacre:
"There’s always a small piece of my soul that hopes the producers of Insidious will give me something that’s a tad scary and interesting, rather than the horrible messes that were Jessabelle and Insidious 2. Alas, not so."
We did as kids but nothing every happened. Except for this one time when we were told to get a kleenex and then I got a nosebleed.

i hope so in a way. it gets new talent in there instead of the same names over and over again. The only reason budgets go up is because of names, and overall you get the same experience all the time.
New talent, new stories, new ways of going about things. that is what hollywood needs desperately right now. You say "you only have this much money" and people will find creative ways to do things.
In terms of chronicle I think they need a higher visual effects budget though.
I don't know why Project X and Chronicle are so popular.
