Remember when these threads would get way more responses/reactions. Were I suzerain of the forum I'd be upset about that.

So in local currency Avatar could drop 30 % and in $ it would drop 45 %. Fearing this will happen in Germany, France etc.
This is why the ECB need to start ramping that IR and hard. They've made some good moves in the past few weeks, but they really need to move faster.

Them going AWOL is troubling, I just hope that they are found and actually are both given up to the proper authorities and they get themselves some help. They seem to be spiralling and this could get even darker which I don't think anyone would wish to see.

CPI today of 8.6% (HEAVILY MANIPULATED) that's 14.03% inflation in the last 2 years with worse to come. The likely real rate of compound inflation is over 25%. We eating good box office fans.

Certainly better than FK although that bar wasn't exactly high. 5/10.

just hoping dr fate it's not a copy cat of strange powers wise
I mean he looks a lot like him visually powers wise. I mean I seriously thought this was a marvel movie at first. I guess DC realised that drab colour isn't it.

And my opinion is that only looking at the 'hard numbers' and 'cold logic' is telling but half the story!
I totally agree that it doesn't tell the full story. Don't get me wrong. We're in full agreement on that. My view is that the numbers tell the part of the story that matters. (Again well aware that is my own personal view).

Going to trial over a single line in an op-ed that DOES NOT NAME HIM is shoddy at BEST.
I deal in family law and defamation will often come up, although in a very different setting. Often with the Mothers and Fathers making defamatory statements to the children. Now many of these statements never mention the name, nor the title of the subject being defamed. Not once have I ever seen any legal objection to those statements being admissible, even when provided by the children themselves. Now I've worked in the UK for the past 20 years but did a decade in the US and unless something has changed, so long as one can provide enough supporting evidence I've never seen any precedence that would again prevent a judge from at least hearing the trial.

Pierce Brosnan as Dr Fate
Dr Fate has to be a rip off of Dr Strange? I literally thought this was another MCU movie on first watch because I wasn't paying enough attention. Is that a new character?

Saw it for the 5th time today. Gets better on each viewing honestly.

Wait, this is DC? I thought this was Marvel? Brosnan isn't playing Dr. Strange and that gold fella isn't Falcon? How can DC get away with such blatant rip offs?

No. It shouldn't have even gone to trial. Any actual lawyer thinks it's insane the judge even allowed this.
What Law communities have you been hanging out in? Not sequestering the jury and having it televised, sure, have seen plenty of people questioning those decisions. Not going to trial though?!

I've always wanted to see a super hero face off against a couple of jets! Glad to see them keeping things fresh.

Authenticity? Buddy, it's their opinion! They want to compare it based on everything we've ever seen during second weekends. You want to remove all context and keep it strictly based on +/-%. Neither of you are 'wrong' and can compare it however you want.
This I totally agree on. Although I've made it clear in the past that I always prefer the hard numbers. The cold logic. I believe that for 'Box Office' cold hard facts are the most authentic method. I agree that is my opinion!
What dudlad was doing above is totally misstating the discussion!

It is always hard to revive a dead franchise; even if you have the same people involved it is hard to capture lighting in a bottle twice.
Yeah just like Top Gun... oh wait.

I don't see why the extreme Avatar/Cameron fanboys have to dump on every other movie that looks as if it might be a big hit.
No one is dumping on Top Gun. Certainly not us. In fact I'm overjoyed at just how well it's doing. What is in question is the comparisons being made by forum users and the authenticity of said comparisons. Reread the conversation and that is patently clear.

The number of active members is severaly down.
Also a lot of the old active members are on reddit/discord now so that kind of makes sense.

They aren't crazy figures. Again, I'll trust my judgement on this topic over a whole lot of others that have been dead wrong where the future of the industry was going.
It has been strange seeing so many people who claim interest in the box office almost willing the industry to die.

Moderation
Yeah, this streaming argument has gone on long enough. We’re all not going to agree with each other, so might as well stop here.
Seems more like a discussion to be honest. Isn't that the point of an online forum? To discuss (and sometimes debate) these very topics?

All I am asking for is an argument based on even simple math here instead of touting out random numbers.
You've obviously never been in an argument with Charlie. @IronJimboand I were routinely mocked for questioning his made up Endgame admissions calculations but being purple his word is law.

Avatar: The Way of Water | 16 DEC 2022 | Don't worry guys, critics like it
in Box Office Discussion
Posted · Edited by JamesCameronScholar
I share a close personal friend with Varoufakis, who I respect greatly, and we were having this exact discussion yesterday based on a conversation they were having. Basically, even YV seems to be of the opinion that some radical action must be taken and quickly. Whether that is allowing the Spain, Italy, Greece etc. to collapse and then working something else out down the line.
That or they threaten to take the entire North with them down what path? Weimar v2 on one hand, or a recession so deep it might make 1929 look like a party? In times like these hard choices will have to be made.
I just hope that these choices are made sooner rather than later, for the good of Europe, and for the box office of A2.
