I’ve gotten the trailer, but almost entirely in front of Disney movies like Little Mermaid, Boogeyman, and Elemental. Does seem pretty quiet in terms of promo now, but I felt the same thing for Elemental until after Little Mermaid dropped, so I think it will be the same here after Indy comes out. Quorum’s also pretty good in terms of awareness. I’m optimistic Me irl. I’m already picturing myself seeing this on a random Wednesday, awkwardly alone in the back like a loser. Either being the only one or with like one mom and his daughter in the middle. Sad life (good to see you back in the tracking game)

It's not as awful as some people say, but there's just a lot of annoying creative choices that ruin what would have been a decent superhero flick. It also doesn't help that this is supposed to be a direct sequel to Superman 2. So telling me that Reeve!Supes and Kidder!Lois would do this stuff is anger-inducing to somebody who holds the first movie up as one of their favorite films of all time. Man of Steel is a stupid movie too (not for the reasons fanboys hate it), but at least that was its own world and interpretation, which makes things a tad more forgivable...keyword being "a tad".

Gotta love how Singer felt that the movie needed to show Lois cheating on her husband and having Clark's baby without anybody knowing. And then Clark's a Lifetime stalker Peeping Tom. There's a lot in that movie they did good enough on, but those two choices just ruin the whole experience.

Reminds me that him and Parker Posey were in Superman Returns but somehow weren't Clark and Lois? Like it's a perfect casting, they were on the literal set no less, but they were like, "nah, we'll go with these boring nobodies instead"?????

Very much on board with Brosnahan and I'm sure the dude playing Clark will do well. I will say that going back to Lex Luthor again is pretty boring. It's frustrating how we still don't have a live-action Brainiac yet, but we now have three Lex Luthors. Four if you want to include Jon Cryer as his nephew.

I mean it and Elvis are the only two big examples post-pandemic? Even NTTD arguably underperformed here in North America. Just because one or two movies overperformed doesn't mean much IMO. They're just exceptions to the rule, considering almost every other big movie has largely delivered with the 18-34 crowd in particular.

Moderation I said we were done with these pointless convos where nobody will listen to each other and I mean it. When I say "stop", you stop. Next time, anybody who continues fighting over this movie and relitigate these fights will see a threadban. Thank you.

Something I do want to bring up for both Indy and Mission: Impossible (even Oppenheimer if M37's 35-45 OW comes into fruition) is that these movies are reliant on old white guys who don't go to the movies anymore. Almost every big movie that comes out skews towards the 18-34 crowd, arthouse fare aimed at youngsters have typically been the only notable hits (Asteroid City, Past Lives), Caucasian viewer percentages have gotten smaller and smaller and smaller. A big chunk of old Gen Xers and boomers who likely went to the movies more frequently have stuck with their 4K TVs and soundbars and don't want to deal with people out there. I know from experience from my own boomer parents, who I've taken to see movies with less and less. When my mom said we're gonna skip our annual Christmas tradition of going to the theater to see a movie and instead watch something at home, that was a big sign things were changing. And obviously I don't think Indiana Jones or Oppenheimer or whatever would be massive, gigantic hits if old white guys were active at the movies, but that is something to ponder over for the rest of the year and beyond. Will certainly make the next few years of box office a lot more interesting. And I'm sure producers for stuff like James Bond or Superman or Star Wars are trying to figure out how to make these dinosaurs "hip" with today's kids.

Clancy Brown >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> your faves

Moderation Look, it's clear nobody's going to agree on whether this movie will be profitable or not. At some point, it's better to just end it and agree to disagree, okay?
