Crowd Reports Thread

Recommended Posts

I may as well make my first post here.

 

Wonder Woman

June 26, 1:55PM

UA Washington Township 14; Sewell, NJ

About 40% full

 

Trailers:

Atomic Blonde

The Mountain Between Us

Dunkirk

(There might have been one or two others, but I can't remember. No audience reaction to anything.)

 

Movie:

Much like everyone else, I enjoyed it. Always great to support female filmmakers.  The audience didn't really react to the movie at all. A few assorted chuckles here and there at the jokes. After it was over, I heard a lot of "That was pretty good" comments as we all filed out.

Baby Driver
July 2, 1:30 PM, 45% full

 

Trailers:

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets/Stars of Hope promo

Logan Lucky (I hope that Daniel Day-Lewis's retirement from acting will be as committed as Steven Soderbergh's "retirement" from directing.)

Daddy's Home 2 (The unanimous "ohhhhh!" at the Lithgow/Ferrell kiss was the largest, collective reaction the entire room had during the two hours we were all together in the auditorium.)

The Dark Tower

 

Movie:

What, did you think I was going to be the one guy who comes out and bashes it? Nah, not this time. I had a blast with this. Played well with the crowd, too. Lots of chuckles at the gags, and pin-drop silence and attentiveness during the action scenes, especially during the third act.

This is the first-run "Renovated" Carmike to AMC theater. I do think the seats may have been changed, but I haven't been in the theater since February 10th.

 

Trailers

I was maybe a smidge or two late, but I arrived in the middle of Geostorm

Valerian

Homecoming
Last Jedi

Kingsman 2

Ragnarok

 

No reactions to anything. During the movie, plenty of people laughed and seemed to enjoy the earth-pop culture references. Once guy said "Talk about sibling rivalry!" when Gamora and Nebula interacted at a certain point.

 

I didn't stay for the credit scenes because idrc about the MCU.

Spider-Man: Homecoming in IMAX 3D

Kingsman (good vibe around it, guy behind me said that he needs to see it)

Inhumans (people laughed at the trailer, not with it. Doesn't bode well)

Black Panther (couldn't grasp the reaction, me and my friend were talking)

 

Overall, the audience seemed into it! They laughed lots, especially with the library scene during the dance ;)

You know which joke I'm referring to. The jokes landed and people laughed very hard at the end credits. AWESOME!

Movie

I really dug this. Even though some of the "Spidey is now part of the MCU" stuff does feel a bit shoehorned, I really thought it soared when being it's own thing and that the high school setting made it feel really fresh compared to every other superhero movie we've seen since the turn of the century. Tom Holland is perfect: Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield before him both made for very good Peter Parker's, but Holland nails the innocence of the character and sells his growth from ordinary teenager to superhero. He actually reminded me of (the sadly late) Anton Yelchin at times. I thought all of the teen roles were well cast really, with Jacob Batalon and Zendaya also being standouts (I hope the delightful Angourie Rice gets a bigger part in future movies too). The always great Michael Keaton has one of the better comic book movie villains in recent memory, while Marisa Tomei makes the most of her limited screentime as Aunt May (even if it's still odd to see her as the character). And Robert Downey Jr. shows up just enough to remind us that Spidey has finally become part of his universe thanks to a joint agreement between Sony and Marvel. It ultimately feels rather "small" in scope, even if that's a bonus in this day and age where every superhero movie goes for as much bang for the buck. Either way, this is easily the best Spider-Man movie since Spider-Man 2 13 years ago. B+

 

The audience was super into it, the parts that got the biggest reactions were

Spoiler

the revelation about Keaton's character

and

Spoiler

the best friend's excuse for being in the computer lab late at night being that he was "watching porn."

 

The theater was SLAMMED tonight. Spider-Man sold out every show, while The Big Sick and Baby Driver also had one sell-out each. Hopefully means the latter two are expanding to big numbers/holding on really well.

The Film:

I thought this was the best Spidey since 04. Tom Holland is fantastic as Spidey and it has a ton of fun moments. It's far from perfect but it's kind of hard to not have fun with this fun flick. 7/10.

Spider-Man: Homecoming in IMAX 3D

July 6, 7:00 PM, 75% full

AMC Colorado

It looked like a lot of people were there for SM:H showings.

 

Trailers:

 

Pitch Perfect 3 (a couple chuckles)

The Dark Tower (no reaction)

Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (laughs)

Justice League (reaction for Wonder Woman)

War For The Planet of the Apes (no reaction)

Valerian 3D (no reaction-convinced me to see this in 3D though)

Black Panther 3D (some clapping)

 

Very tame crowd. A couple of chuckles here and there, but otherwise not much reaction. Lot of people coming in and out during the movie and was kind of distracting since I was right at the walk-way level. No applause or reaction at end.

Spiderman: Homecoming

12:30 PM

NW FL

 

75% full.  My mother was far more excited than I for this, she likes the MCU more than me. There was a commercial for the Big Bang Theory spin off with Sheldon and the guy in front of me said "I'm so watching that." Live your truth, my man.

 

 

Trailers

A special version of Valerian - something with a kickass remix of Gangster's Paradise. My mother looked at me and said "That seems right up your alley."

Wish Upon - Some surprised gasps at points.

The Lego Ninjago Movie - When the bad guy said "How can I ruin your life, I wasn't even in it.", someone shouted "Oh damn." and I laughed so hard I missed the next thirty seconds.

War For the Planet Of The Apes - no reaction :/ 

Pitch Perfect 3 - a surprisingly big response.

Jumanji Welcome to the Jungle - Another big response

The Dark Tower - Interested murmurs.

 

Very engaging crowd. Thought we'd have trouble with some people who were talking loudly before previews but thankfully no issues. 

 

Spoiler

Someone at the end shouted "She LIKES him!"

When the "reveal" went down, the audience kind of laughed in disbelief and someone said "Oh shit."

 

I didn't stick around for the after credits scene because I do not care about the MCU as a whole.

Why do I forget so many trailers :(

One scene that elicited laughter from a few people in the audience is the most of a crowd reaction there was.  People walking out of the movie did seem to like it, however.  Someone mentioned how good the acting was.
