Cause no one has said BvS style legs. I don't think anyone has said below a 2 multi.

And it's still reasonable. We just don't have solid data points and it's all open to interpretation right now. Over 200 openers are still pretty uncharted territory.

It's all about which set of data you base your predictions on. There's enough evidence to support either belief.

I think I can see where you could call this the MCUs Empire Strikes Back. Not in terms of quality, but more in that in the long term how well this movie works, is dependant on part 2. I can at least commend it for being a complete story. My feelings may change if I go out and watch it again. Some of the set pieces are nice, Thanos is a great character. The ending is pretty good. I want to see part 2. So it's done it's job well enough.

It's so weird. It's a film that somehow works despite itself. I don't know that I can call it a good movie. It's almost like a reverse CW, it's pieces somehow make a better whole than they should. Also, yeah, that ending was most obvious ending possible. I did like Wong going "your problem now, peace."

Well...I have much to think About. I'm not sure I can call it a good movie...

I was making a joke. Because TLJ wasn't available to pre-order on Amazon.

Which is fucking sad. They could have a viable business strategy that will net them more money long term. But they'll crash and burn, and Theaters will start introducing their own models afterwards, probably charging 15-20 dollars a month.

Baumer...you're scaring me now.

btw. If I'm banned this weekend, it's all @Porthos's fault. He mind tricked me. So ban him too.

At least you can still like posts in the weekend thread. Also, I am sorry you were threadbanned.

Seems to me, if they treated Moviepass more as free movie passes put out by theaters (where it excludes new releases) they could at least argue that these aren't seats the theaters showing 2/3+ week old movies are selling on their own, so it's an incentive to get more people in and buy concessions. Then with moviepass you put out special deals on concession items, enticing the customers to bring in these coupons to buy large popcorn, or what not. Now I admit I don't know much about the business of running theaters, but this seems a far better strategy than Moviepass acting all big to theaters claiming they bring in so much business, then severely limiting the amount the customer can actually go to the theater.

It was just 5 minutes ago, after it forced an update, so...dunno.

I have a million snarky comments I'd love to respond with. So I'll pick this one:

I just opened my app, and a screen popped up going "Once! You can only see it once!" (Well, I may be paraphrasing their legal-ez)

Yup. This is going to be a glorious implosion.

This reminds me about when I thought I received unjust warning points. I was upset, then just moved on.

It's telling me I am not permitted to see the same movie more than once in theaters.

Aw Moviepass. At least the good news is, you're helping to create a template on how not to do this, so in ten years, we can get a better deal.

Work it's desktop. Home it's my phone. Mostly because I forgot my password and those are pretty much set up to just remember my password already.

"You can only use on movies screening between 6 and 8am"

Don't think I've met one who wasn't a complete moron.

TLJ had like the worst presales on Amazon, it isn't making any records on home video.
