  1. Oh and by the way @Johnny Tran, considering one of the movies (Bohemian Rhapsody) you're defending has a director that has numerous sexual abuse scandals, including with young boys, maybe you shouldn't be so ecstatic or high and mighty about "owning the biased critics," at least when it comes to that movie. Just sayin'.
  2. Okay...the one tweet you posted was from somebody who isn't counted on RT. I am well aware fanboy sites get counted as critics. I even mentioned a few like IGN and Collider. However, the one example that you used is from a writer for a website that has no affiliation with RT. I even mentioned in my previous post "professional critics", so I already set up a goalpost for you. This Daniel guy? Ain't professional. So your basis for your "critics are bad" argument is one person who is not even certified by RT? Yeah, your argument is still garbage. But hey, if doing your stupid song and dance because some people said mean things over a dumb children's movie makes you feel better, who am I to judge?
  3. Ah yes, one single, solitary tweet from a guy who writes for SuperBroMovies, a website I've never heard of before is indicative of a majority or at least a strong amount of professional critics on how they went out of their way to hyperbolize a movie's reception or strategically downvoted a random superhero movies because of petty fanboy arguments that most professional critics and movie bloggers don't actually give a shit about. Yeah that ain't enough. Show me statements from critics or writers who work at actual professional and well-established publications. Variety, THR, EW, The Guardian, TheWrap, HuffPost, ReelViews, or even places like IGN or Collider. Then we'll talk. Because I don't really think one single tweet from a guy who writes for "SuperBroMovies" is fully indicative of your moronic and stupid argument about how critics are the devils and that people shouldn't listen to those who have had years of experience analyzing film because they said mean things about a children's movie.
  4. What an interesting argument. Tell me, do you have any evidence of critics stating that? I for one would be shocked that professional critics would say something so petty.
  5. I still don't really get a lot of the hyperbole around The Conjuring. It's a fun flick, but the whole "scariest movie in years" stuff people continue to yammer on about with this movie...I just don't get.
  6. Good to know. You clearly have such incredible intellect that I, a mere mortal, can not even fathom to argue against such godly knowledge.
  7. @Rthanos I noticed you posted 19.6M for BR's Saturday, but BOM has it at $18.8M. What gives?
  8. Y'know, for a guy who has admitted that they "don't care about critics," you seem to be a guy who is rather giddy and excited when a movie that critics didn't like (even though its RT is at 60%). Seems to me you're a guy who has an interest and cares about what critics have to say. Sad!
  9. Gotta own the libs/elite/intellectuals somehow You're only now realizing the potential of that weekend? Outside of like one or two whiffs here and there, it's been a good weekend for an opener for as long as I can remember.
  10. Ehhh. Elton's got his fans, but I feel like Queen and NWA have a bigger grasp and recognition when it comes to pop culture. His story also isn't as interesting as Mercury or any of the NWA guys. It'll probably do somewhere in the 20s, with an outside chance in the 30s, which would still be fine.
  11. I don't know which is more impressive: Bohemian Rhapsody's opening or A Star is Born only dropping 24% even with direct competition.
  12. OH FUCK I just got a tornado warning on my phone. If I die tonight, at least I know that my Disney club will die with me.

  15. Also also Even with direct competition, Legends Cooper and Gaga don't stop. Amazing.
