Disappointing. The combined efforts of talent like James Cameron and Tim Miller amounted to basically nothing. As generic for a terminator film as they come. The biggest problem, apart from being the exact same film with T2 and 3 , is that the new characters lack any sort of charisma, is it so fucking hard for such a production to find some charismatic actors ? Robert Patrick had more charisma in one of his fingers than all of the new actors combined. Where is a new young actress with the charisma of Linda Hamilton in this thing ? The new characters are booooring and so are the non-action scenes. The action is great but in the age of the F&F films, the superhero films e.t.c this isn’t that big of a deal. Also not having any sort of horror elements that even T2 (with the menacing Robert Patrick) had, hurts the film. I actually prefer T3 to this, at least the female terminator vs. Arnie had a small curiosity factor, this new one has nothing. It is basically a superhero film where everyone is a superhero vs. a mega villain of sorts. Not a bad time at the theater but damn I expected so much more. The franchise is over. Things like this make me feel better for never getting a The Thing true sequel, one classic and done.

Or if you have fanboys not being able to shut up for over a year about it in this forum.

Actually the only thing that I ever wrote is that people are underpredicting spider man while overpredicting TLK and frozen 2 (another film where we will have a lot of backpedaling in the near future) but the truth has never stopped people from spewing bullshit in this forum. Hell some folks were insulted because i wrote that the shining book has sold much more than what Kubrick’s movie made at the box office.

Bububut the original lion king had done this and that a few centuries ago and this was bound to explode and become the biggest movie of the 21st century. Those were the days.......

The lion king remake has had mega fanboy hype for over a year. It is the only disney remake that actually had fanboy hype. It wasn’t until the bad reviews that the hype started to decrease. Even in this box office “experts” forum people were going wild for it last summer with all sorts of crazy predictions and they were deadly serious. Of course now they sing a different tune...

People have been going crazy for this lion king thing for years in this forum writing essay after essay about why it would break every record imaginable. So yeah it is not going to “flop” but everything is compared to expectations esp. expectations from 2018. Bragging about how it will do “over a billion” is silly.

Of course there were. In fact a year ago many were predicting that it would be the n.1 movie of 2019 , the posts are still there for all to see. Naturally we will see a lot of backpedaling, it has already begun, but people were expecting this to be THE event of 2019. Now these people will defend how successful it is as if there was any chance that it wouldn’t achieve good box office results. Anyway let’s see the legs and how it will actually perform outside of the U.S.

It’s cute how you think that you are actually a serious horror fan.

Midsommar is not getting good buzz at all at the horror communities I am a part of but whatever. Crawl on the other hand seems to be enjoyed by the people that have watched it. I have no opinion in either of these films.

Sure they say that NOW....not one year ago.

Time to see how the “biggest movie of 2019” will do at the worldwide box office.

1 billion ? This was supposed to be the biggest film of 2019 !!! The posts from last year are still all there for anyone to see.

This post is gold...wow !!!😀😂

Looks , unsurprisingly, like shit but at least kind of better than the abominations that the previous movies were.

Some people seem butthurt that another MCU film will be super fresh, cool.
