LIFE deserved a better fate at the boxoffice. Criminally underrated. That ending was just WTF. Frankly, I liked it more than AC, which I liked as well.
As for this, it might be a good movie but Fassbender has zero box-office draw so unless the marketing is out of this world, this won't do well like at all.
I have yet to see this, but this is definitely his most commercial movie so maybe he curbed his natural instincts on this one. I say good because it is doing well. An out and out Edgar movie would have been well...extremely niche. Previous BO performance of his movies are there to see.
since you are curious why don't you find yourself? Being a mod, I am sure you will find it sooner. Start in all the TF threads. Same with alien covenant. Now, ofcourse, if I am wrong about a movie either critically and boxoffice then I admit it. But obviously you folks don't notice that because you choose not to. I had opened a club here in which i said AC will gross WAY below Split and Get Out and even have lower opening weekend than those but some idiot closed it down because it hurt him to the core as to how dare I make such a prediction. A few threads of mine have been closed in recent times which is kinda shitty of you mods to do so but whatever.
I have been saying for ages that 2017 is not the year for sequels irrespective of quality.
I won't be shocked one bit if apes 3 is the lowest grossing in the franchise and Kingsman 2 underperforms big time.
star wars could also suffer but i think there are enough sw lunatics to keep that afloat. Also, it will be the last time we will see Carrie fisher (god rest her soul) so that will help.
The thing is that the creator of the comics said "fuck you" to gdt like a man after gdt announced his departure without even telling the creator. Good. He is overrated filmmaker. Except Pan's Labrynth nothing in his filmography can be said a classic oTr iconic movie. Blade 2 is a guilty pleasure and Pacific Rim is fun. Rest are all garbage.
That being said, I don't think this will be any good.
This is going to be really really bad. I am 101% sure. Feel for the director. 1st english language film and a big budget studio one at that. 85 mins...LMAO...this is just like when Tom Rothman was at fox..he would churn out these 80-95 mins long action/adventure/sci-fi/fantasy films that sucked balls barring a cool set piece here and there.
Watch it on the big screen. It will lose half of its awesomeness on home video. Save your money for this rather than something which will make money anyways like Spiderman Homecoming.
Did John Carter also receive similar tweets back in the day?
If yes, I am not certain this will crack 50% yet on RT. This needs ATLEAST 70% with a certified tomato to get some butts in the seat. Pacific Rim RT will be good...else doomed. We have yet to hear opinion of hardcore star wars/marvel/dc fanboys/fangirls/critics.
