Les Miserables 9: They Dreamed a Dream

[with_one_voice]

This is cinematic karma at work, really.

Though watch this be like that time Precious debuted on Metacritic at 56%.

Les Mis already has the same number of yellow reviews as Precious. LOL.

More importantly, is fists still predicting Crowe in Gold Rush?

I took him out of SAG and need to completely rework my BFCA predictions, where I think this will suffer most.

If there's any group (aside from the Globes with their love for stars & musicals) that could still fall for this, it's the BFCA.

But aren't they pretty much made up of...critics?

It has a 91 with them so of course they'll go for it.

No.

Well, yes. But no. Look at their past nominees... what critic liked Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close? These are like affiliate news stations' "entertainment" reporters.

Yeah, I mean...isn't Tom O'Neil a member of them? That pretty much says it all about their taste.

Its RT rating is 0.8 higher than Crash! Passion! It'll have more than Lincoln will! Picture winner! Oscars! Victor Hugo!

So legitimate!

Crash reminds me that Michael Peña was in two BP winners in a row.

Lights Camera Jackson and Thomas Horn are dating, right? That would explain the latter's BFCA win.

Yeah, I expect its reviews to alter how it does at either the GG or the BFCA. Except for Barks and Redmayne that is. They're out. Crowe was never in.

Jeff Wells is a member? There's hope for SLP after all!

What about that one HuffPo critic who said that Les Mis was one of the best films he had ever seen? Does Metacritic have his review? Do they? Do I need to email it? I'm going to email it. :dirk:

Also email them a transcription of fisti's diary. Perhaps that can count, and resuscitate Crowe's campaign.

A little gift for everyone engaging in this rather annoying chest thumping right now...
