'A Prophet' Trailer

Only At The Movies! February 11

Condemned to six years in prison, Malik El Djebena, part Arab, part Corsican, cannot read or write. Arriving at the jail entirely alone, he appears younger and more fragile than the other convicts. He is 19 years old. Cornered by the leader of the Corsican gang currently ruling the prison, he is given a number of missions to carry out, toughening him up and gaining the gang leaders confidence in the process. Malik is a fast learner and rises up the prison ranks, all the while secretly devising his own plans.

Winner of the Festival de Cannes Grand Prix, A Prophet is a compelling story of power, morality and survival, from one of France's most acclaimed directors Jacques Audiard (The Beat My Heart Skipped).

majority opinion and financial success/failure means fuck all where movies are concerned - and it's mainly to do with the demographics that they appeal to. They are not reliable indicators of a movie's artistic value.

Yes as a humanist it's only right for me to stop indulging you in your mental torment. It's probably best that you cut off your access to the internet and indeed all public forums where (god forbid) you might be able to express your stupid opinions.

@Tripo1iSamson

no I'm not lmao, I'm using them as an example of why third party opinion is irrelevant you fucking pleb. If you had let my comment penetrate your thick fucking skull into your tiny self righteous brain you might've understood that.

How many movies are there in the world? Hundreds of thousands. 50 is a very, VERY small drop in the ocean. That's why "worstmovietrailers" holds absolutely no water statistically. Until you provide across the board statistics your opinion will forever be invalidated.

@T800System I bid you adieu. If tearing up your incorrect statements is going to continue to be this pointless, I don't know why I'm wasting my time. Good luck learning to think straight!

@T800System If you're going to start citing Justin Bieber's movie fans as proof that a movie cannot be "quantified" or judged in any sort of objective manner, then you should go ahead and commit suicide.

@T800System "oh, so it's okay for your to arbitrate what is a mistaken or worthless opinion?" No, but if hard data (majority opinion, website rating, financial failure) speaks more than a person's "artistic value" then I'm going to pay more attention to the raw data rather than the single outlier. Are you daft? Wait, yes, you are. Have no idea why I asked.

@T800System "The onus is on you to prove conversely that there is a correlation between bad trailers and bad movies and so far you have failed to provide any meaningful statistics." I know. Finding several websites that reference bad trailers, sometimes in bundles of 50, and looking up their financial gross and IMDB rating and seeing a blatant relation is totally not important or statistically important. You're a genius of rhetoric.

@Tripo1iSamson

"anyone arguing the artistic value of a movie with an [IMDB] rating of 1.9 is likely sorely mistaken or has a worthless perception" - oh, so it's okay for your to arbitrate what is a mistaken or worthless opinion? The irony tastes real, real sweet.

@T800System "The mere observation that there is a good movie out there with a bad trailer proves my opinion entirely." It doesn't. One movie receiving popularity but being a financial failure while having a trailer that isn't decent isn't evidence to suffice your claim that there's no statistical relationship between a movie trailer's reception, the movie's financial gross, and popular opinion. You fail a lot, but love to divert it.
