Oh @Kespax so so true about the young guy’s frustrations captured so well. Good idea about taking your nephew – it will give him something to think about. My experience is that 4pm sessions usually are that quiet – as are 10.30 am and often midday – which is when I went yesterday – more people tend to think about stomachs than brains – haha.

Hi @Addy – I think when you say “fans” not ready to accept – you really mean twifans because I doubt there is a Rob fan out there that doesn’t accept any role he undertakes. Sorry I just don’t want to be bundled in with the twhards because as I said in an earlier comment – they try to lay claim to him but clearly who they love is Edward Cullen and not the man that IS Robert Pattinson. As for the article – well if it’s written by a journo I doubt I would take it seriously. I think Summit understands that the twihards love Eddie and so they have thrown it in the mix in the US to entice them to go and watch Rob. But Summit I will say this until I’m blue in the face – Twilight NEEDS Rob – Rob does NOT need Twilight.

I saw RM on Fri 10 am with a friend that indulged me and came to see LA with me. There were 5 others, all of grandparent age at that screening.
My friend gave the movie a 4 star rating and said it was fabulous. Of cause, I, being a little more biased, have put on an extra 1/2 star.
I took my 2 teenage daughters to see it on Fri night. They aren’t Rob fans. One of them has a Taylor poster up in her room, so you could say they are Twifans. There were about 30 of us at the night session at the Ritz. All girls and mostly in their late 20’s & 30s. I’m guessing Rob fans.
Both my girls loved the movie. One couldn’t talk on the way home. She just wanted to stay in the moment. The other put it as one of her fav movies of all time.
The lack of promotion in Australia has been disssapointing. The Sat Herald had a disappointing review, saying that Rob did well and he needs a better vehicle than RM to show his talents. The 3 other non Rob fans I have taken to RM have loved the movie on it’s merits alone. So I’m baffled.
I can only guess some reviewers had made up their minds about Rob based on Twilight and are critiquing RM with that in mind. Tall poppy syndrome?
If I can, I will jump at the chance to go see it again. I am already anticipating owning RM on DVD.

Okay iam going to be a horrilbe person in some peoples eyes i guess but i really do not care if breaking dawn or breaking wind as i call it!!! doesnt get made!! I agree whole heartedly with maria Twlight needs Rob not the other way round.

Thought I should report, just did coffee with the non-fan and RM is all she could talk about. *sniff*

@Maria – that’s one of the main reasons I live at RPAU. It’s not about you guys or us, it’s all about supoorting Rob and what he deserves. That’s exactly why I want to see more peeps in those cinema seats, then people can experience and recognise the outcomes of Rob’s brilliance. You really can feel how much of himself has gone into this project.

btw, they promoted RM on Sunrise this morning. Showed some clips, tiny interviews with Rob, Emilie and Pierce (separately). Nothing we haven’t seen, but it was a decent size segment.

I’m loving reading everyones reactions. @Kespax its definately a film you can’t just go to perve at rob (although i did sigh everytime he was on screen ) I love movies that stay with you and keep you thinking. RememberMe is one of those movies. Very sleepless night last night!

People have to see this movie. If you only associate rob to twilight *shudders* your opinion on him is limited, as his acting in twilight is definately limited. He has far more to offer and RM is the perfect example of this.

Well @Carmel – I started to read Roger Ebert’s review (he is a well respected movie reviewer) and had to stop reading when he said this “Tyler gets drunk one night, is thrown out of a club”. Okay this isn’t me opening up this forum for discussion about scenes – it’s just me saying – when the hell did that happen? I’ve seen the movie twice – I didn’t see him get thrown out of a club. So if this is coming from a respected movie reviewer I beg to ask – Roger did you REALLY watch the movie – or did you use cheat sheets/monarch notes or whatever they are called now to review this film.

Certain people in the media have a preconceived idea of what Rob is about because he unwittingly became a phenomenon due to Edward Cullen. Rob’s never been about mass appeal I don’t think. I really believe he wouldn’t care either way if he became famous or not – well to the extent that he has. Anyway sorry that’s obviously discussion for a different thread. My point is that the people who have given him bad reviews clearly had not left their bias at the door. So I take film reviews as a grain of salt and that’s why we don’t post a lot of them on the site. Sure we will post some positive because that’s what we are about, but the negative – enjoying a movie is a personal choice. Hell I know that because people raved about The Hangover and I still fail to find that film THAT funny.

@Vertigo – did they? Are you kidding me – I tweeted Sunrise last night and asked them to promote – haha – coincidence?????

I forgot to mention something: The NM midnight screening was naturally booked out at my local cinema when we went, but I went again the next day and that was a private screening except one other person. I’m hoping word and mouth will see RM numbers rise through the coming weeks. The film deserves better.

Another thing that was pointed out to me today – and please do not open debate on this I’m just sharing ok.

My non-fan said that it could be possible that a majority of twi fans aren’t ready to see their beloved Edward be with anyone else but Bella.

I loved Emilie in this and their chemistry was outstanding!

Hear hear @Vertigo – no debate, but I will say this because I’m co-owner and again – pls don’t debate this. There is more chemistry between Tyler and Caroline that I’ve ever seen between Eddie and Bella and yes I believe there is just as much if not better chemistry between Rob and Emilie. At least Emilie is an adult whenever they are being interviewed together because I still have not forgiven the incident that happened at Comicon last year where Rob was talked over and the childish behaviour of his costar was just unforgiveable.

Exactly Maria!

@vertigo ooooh good point.

@Maria are you u sure you just tweeted them and didnt threaten to unleash a full blown Maria wrath? *snickers*

By the way Id help you! and vertgio and LL would too

@Sare *giggles*

it’s true Sare – Maria had me fire up the torches last night.

That is exactly right Maria & Vertigo. Everything we do here is about Rob & always will be. It’s not about us. We don’t want credit for anything, all we want is to see Rob receive the recognition & support that he so truly deserves. Rob’s performance in this film is brilliant, he truly invested so much of himself in this movie & it definitely shows in his performance.

That is fantastic that Sunrise showed some clips. LOL, coincidence??? indeed Maria.

I was the same Sare the night I saw RM. I couldn’t stop thinking about it, it was all I thought about the ride home & beyond & I am still thinking about it. As I have said in my previous comments, it is a film that will stay with me forever & I truly mean that. Films like that don’t come along too often & that is one of the many many reasons why RM is so special.

Agree with you completely Vertigo re: Rob & Emilie’s chemistry. I thought they were amazing together, their relationship felt so real. Nothing fake at all, just so natural – I believed every word.

I bet Maria’s tweet went something like this “Dear Sunrise you better promote Rob in Remember Me or I am goinna unleash a whole can of whoop arse!” LMAO!!

I saw the segment too this morning on Sunrise it was their Movie Of the Week and was a great segment :). Funny when introducing it they said …”his (Robert Pattinson’s) latest project the low key Remember Me”. Well low key beause it doesn’t have the marketing and promotion behind it that the Twi Movies do but you know I am beginning to feel ok about the lack of promotion, might remove a lot of the crazies. I get such a thrill know looking at the smiles Rob has on his face at the premiere and during the press junket. No wonder he was smiling so much he knows he did good and I hope he is as proud of himself as we all are

LOL @Lise-Lou – actually i remain low key when it comes to Sunrise since I used to work with Andrew O’Keefe. My tweet actually went “@sunriseon7 how about promoting Rob Pattinson’s new film #Remember Me – can you tweet that?” So actually doing a spot on TV is more than I expected.

Awesome work Maria

LOL Maria, hence Sunrise already had the fear.

Yeah Lisa, it will be interesting to see who is left standing once BD is behind Rob. He is paving his own path and I can’t wait to see what Rob comes up with next.

Going again tonight with my older sister. Just checked the Bondi session and the 6:50 is very, VERY full. Very pleased to see.

Thanks Annie, so wonderful to hear that

@M&M do you think it will still be showing on April 10th? Thats the only time i can get to a hoyts cinema. Ohhhh it better be otherwise i will abso-freakin-lutely lose my mind!

Is that for your pass? Hoyts Distribution told me that they can be used at any of the Hoyts, Greater Union, Village or BC&C cinemas that are screening it. Hopefully it still will be, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it isn’t seeing as they often pull movies given how many come out these days. I like the goodl old days when only 1 cinema showed it and it stayed on for months and months – haha – like Star Wars that was on for something like 2 years.

Just got back from my 3rd viewing and the movie still takes my breath away even more than the first time! And yes I still bawled like a baby!

Only about 15 people there but I think maybe the promotion in Australia is a bit slow…we had the awesome segement on Sunrise this morning and my local newspaper had a lift out which gave the film a good review and an article on Rob (as well as the cover). I went to a different cinema and woohoo there was a poster up this time and went with 2 different friends who are now converted they loved the movie and thought Rob was amazing (so they can stay on my xmas card list!).

His performance is just incredible and I am completely in love with this movie. So when can we go again? LOL

Was very disappointed that Village Cinemas in Launceston were not showing this film, can you believe it??? So drove all the way to Devonport to see it, and would happily do so again. Loved it, loved it, loved it.

Hi Kaz, I am in Launceston too & am so angry & disappointed that our Village is not showing RM. I just cannot comprehend why they are NOT showing it. I have rang them several times to complain as well as emailing Village head office but they have just given me the standard excuses. Did you ring them at all? They said they may screen at a later date but I wouldn’t hold my breath. Launceston sucks, it really does. I did the same as you, drove all the way to Devonport to see the film & will definitely be making the trip again Would do so everyday if I could lol. So nice to see some more L’ton fans on here. Fingers crossed Village come to their senses & realise that YES we do want to see Rob’s films here. Why they would think we wouldn’t I will never ever know.

Hi Michelle, yes, I called them too, and got the same excuses you did. Glad I went to Devonport though – they actually have a really nice cinema there, infact, may make the trip there to see all movies in future

Yep that is so true Kez, their cinema is SO much better than ours. Saying the L’ton one is crap is being kind LOL. Only thing was the sound was a bit bad at the screening I went to which was very annoying but in fairness it is the first time that has ever happened when I have been there They were just doing it to ‘tease me’ I am sure LOL.

Maybe the Aussie media could get behind RM because of the Emily connection? She also did a fantastic job. Anything that helps.

I enjoyed RM a great deal. Can’t understand the lack of patronage at 6.50pm on a Saturday. I hope to go again and fingers crossed word of mouth and a few more positive reviews will get the crowds in. For the life of me I can’t understand those fans who only see Rob as Edward. The camera loves Rob and his true beauty and talent is a joy to behold.

AWESOME.

So just came back from the film, and mys sister cannot stop talking about it. Not only was she impressed with Robert’s performance, but she was crying by the end of it and said the film had a profound effect on her.

I’ve only seen it once, but I’m planning to see it again very soon. Completely loved it! I cried so much in the end… and when Tyler yelled at his dad

@Annie – that seems to be the general consensus and why this film needs to be promoted. It’s not only about introducing new people to Rob, but also this film deserves to be seen.

havent seen it yet am down with a bad cold and i cant get out of the house… and probably am going to see it next weekend cause during the week am too busy

here in GR i think RM is promoted well enough on the radio and on almost all greek cinema sites and most audience’s reviews are preety good(4.5*).and many non-fans were satisfied.

i want more than anything rob’s career to be promoted.he totally deserves it.

Hi Everyone,
136 comments – whoa! My local cinema is not screening until the 17th, so have been wanting to go further a field to Hoyts or Reading before then (hopefully 2morrow – school hrs for me).
I had a great feeling about this film ages ago, but with all the super comments I am really busting to go now.
Little Ashes is my fave, but just got to see How to Be on the weekend (on the DVD extras Rob is just so normal – love him for it)!

I have seen RM twice…. awesome movie… so much more than I hoped for. It has everything..romance, drama, violence, relationships and it is such a beautiful story played out by an ensemble of terrific actors. I would recommend it to anyone. Any wonder Rob is so proud of it… I think it is his greatest performance yet.
Promotion…what promotion? I have been looking out for this for weeks… the week before it started my local cinema didn’t even have it listed as coming soon and the promotional poster only went up the day before…. I am still waiting to hear their explanation. Needless to say there were 3 people at the first screening and only about 30 on Saturday night.
It is a shame that this movie won’t get the credit it deserves. Hopefully the word will spread!

hi!!!
ooh I haven’t because here in Mexico, will be out till march 26th.
But I will be there that day!!
that’s for sure!!!

good luck @LiA on marck 26th.with breathing i mean

@Anna – bed and lots of fluids for you. . Get well

I have seen It and It was amazing

LOVE THIS MOVIE
