Empire City doesn't bother me at all and I'm baffled why anyone is bothered by him. I like that he gives out early numbers and is sort of cocky. Cocky is only bad if you are a jerk and he hasn't come off as a jerk to me.
I agree completely. As someone that mostly just reads, this site can be a bit of a circle jerk amongst the same 20 posters, it’s refreshing to see someone not sucking baumers dick. Lol.
And yeah ear I would describe him as cocky, not really rude or an asshole. Baumer is an asshole, but I also kinda like his style too.

He was overbudget on the most expensive film ever made and was late at the time, he had multiple fires under his ass and the media was loving talking aboit the "shipwreck". Whedon would have a mental breakdown if experiences just half the pressure. Also bare in mind Jim has handled more pressure than any director ever (literally).
Titanic's success was so beautiful that the executives giving him shit all got fired because they agreed to remove Jims flat fee and change it to a percentage.
Comparing Wheldon to Cameron is a sin you must repent now or you will never be at peace. Put your palms together and repeat with me.
"Forgive me Jim for I was a fool"
Lol, I would have agreed before the world witnessed Jim sell out to pimp terminator genisys......man......

I said MCU movies released last year. Jumanji obliterated GOTG, SMH and Thor Ragnarok. No, I had no idea BP obliterated Jumanji. Really? BP is a big hit?
? Lol, hard to use the term obliterated when comparing a movie that made 950MM world wide to 3 movies that made close to 850MM worldwide.
You could accurately say jumanji obliterated justice league....

Studio executives tried to make Jim change the ending of Titanic so that Jack lives, despite it being a story about the hardness of separation. They asked him to send them the scene so he made the scene really as poorly as he could and sent them it as a fuck you.
Also in one of his earlier films (Aliens or The Terminator I think), an exec called him in for a meeting and he brought a prop shotgun with him, placed in on the desk and said "I'm willing to discuss anything"...
Yikes, he actually gave in and filmed the scene as execs requested. Embarrassing.
Im actually really disappointed Jim did this, I thought he was tougher then that. Counter that with Joss Whedon refusing to film a scene where cap said avengers assemble because he always knew he wanted the hard cut before he said assemble.
Pretty crazy that whedon has more backbone thqn cameron. Sad.

They won’t cry about it, of course. But I think they’d want the movie they’ve been building up to for 10 years and have multiple sequels planned for already to be their star.
I don’t think ”IW fails to match BP’s opening weekend/total gross” is their preference when it comes to headlines and public perception.
That’s fair. However I think bp only has a chance of outcrossing domestically, and there are several clear reasons behind why that’s happened. Doesn’t have a shot we, IMO. But after this weekend, who knows. Lol.

Diversity is the Key!
If Disney wants to bring Star Wars back from the dead they might want to re-think themselves.
What a gross post.

They do. They have way more movies relating to the Avengers (characters) coming out in the next two to three years than for BP. There’s no script yet for BP 2. They need IW to be the winner.
In my opinion, of course.
You think they’ll be worried if bp makes 575MM but IW only makes 550MM. Really?

Dude, take a step back. It's okay to praise BP, but don't do it at the expense of a film that is far from a flop and when all is said and done will more than likely make more than BP both domestic and WW.
If anything you’d think he’d be celebrating tlj success given how diverse the cast is. He seems to really loves that diversity.
Chad Stevens - the whitest name on earth, diversity champion.

I loved the new ghostbusters film, what did you think of it?
Hated it. Lol. Unfortunately chose this name before the movies release .....

Yeah, it’s a nonsensical abbreviation. The point of an abbreviation is to save space, so there’s no reason to add that extra M. It’d like trying to say XX instead of 100.
Well, we do use Greek letters for math. But even then, MM is an incorrect Roman numeral notation for 1 million anyways.
See. You’ve done learned so much from googling something mad panda. I’m happy for you. What a long way you’ve come from thinking MM was millimetres and using your limited knowledge to fail in criticizing a post, to knowing so much about MM.
one thing though, it’s still used in financial reporting. All the time. Even in reviewing box office reports. So it’s not outdated at all.
Weekend Thread | Avengers 2nd Weekend - 114.774 only a 21.5% drop on Sunday
in Numbers and Data
Posted · Edited by Ghostbusters!
Ours is closer to 25%. If we do back of the envelope math for how our sales correlated to last weekend we would be on pace for almost 61MM. Which is beyond impossible, so I wouldn’t read too much into one off theatres.
That being said it is doing gangbusters today. All our shows so far today have sold out or only missed the first two rows. I’m assuming the same for the rest of the day.
