    Last weekend almost everyone under-predicted Way of Water - this weekend, it looks to me like many folks will be over-predicting it. Of course, I would love to be wrong. :)

    Mike, thank you very much for your quality posts. They are always helpull and relevant.

    But play with us, predict a number !

  2. I don't think I saw anyone talk about this yet but am I the only one who thought that this movie was too dark ?

     

    And I'm talking about the photography, not the mood.

    I mean most scenes were a little greyish or muddy brown but they were fine. However those first scenes on Correllia and some of the space scenes were so dark I was squinting.

     

    How the fuck did they mess that up ? I saw it in 2D so I don't know if the experience was different in 3D but that was weird. Also that blue light scene with the worm queen thing from Corellia was hard to see for me.

    Like I said, it will take some talented writers to fix it.  But that's why they get paid big bucks to do it.  

    Yep. TLJ's plot leave us with a story that need to be fixed.

    And it's a Marketing nightmare. No Pun, no open ended stories, no new lovable characters, no existing OT characters alive...

     

    Well at least we still have the good things that were set up in TFA, well.... half of them since Rian Johnson thought it would be a good idead to close the other half with his amazings explanations : "there is none :redcapes:"

    How can anyone with a rudimentary understanding of the box office say that Solo is going to drop something like 30% this weekend?

    So I was looking to find a second week end with a 30% drop and I couldn't (A quiet place did 34,5% though).

    Then I thought to look at a known counter example just for the lolz.

    And omfg Avatar !

    As with most things, the reality is somewhere in the middle. It was a factor sure, buy not the primary cause.

     

    Well, yes but it could be middle greyish white or middle greyish black.

     

    I don't know if it is the primary cause but it is definitly an important one.

     

    Some of my friends were so disapointed with TLJ (even though they like RO) that they are waiting for the VOD release even though I insisted that they should give it a try.

     

    Yeah, of course my example is not a generality but nevertheless their reasons is that they did not like TLJ (they actually hated it) and don't trust Lucasfilm to make Star Wars anymore.

    I am willing to bet that you will find more people than me that thought TLJ was an atrocious film. In matter of fact, a huge chunk of Star Wars fans and casual moviegoers thought it was really poor. 

     

     

    TLJ had good photography and was visually good overall.

    But yes, the story was atrocious, the characters were all underdevelopped and their evolution was plain stupid.

    I have 100 of examples to back me up but I am fed up of talking TLJ.

     

    If people liked it good for them.
