Even though I'm not a MCU fanboy, I really hope this movie performs well enough for the sake of that kind of movies. We can always have good fun for different universes and there's nothing preventing them from coexisting. Good MCU movies don't depend on good DC movies and vice versa. I have to say I'm not excited to see GOTG 3. Maybe because I'm just a regular guy who usually watches most of these movies ( I haven't watched Quantumania yet and I watched Shazam 2 on video, though ), but this movie doesn't scream "WATCH ME ASAP". Maybe, just maybe I'm giving it a chance based on comments from friends and known critics, but they aren't really impressing me. Perhaps marketing for GOTG 3 could have been better. Not sure, BUT I think ( this is just a personal feeling ) this movie is trying to sell something that it won't matter. Are there stakes? Are main characters going to die? This movie can perfectly be good, but maybe even being excellent doesn't matter anymore. I think many people want to see stakes for the franchise. Will things change to stay the same? Will things truly change? The Multiverse storyline is interesting ( mostly for nostalgic stuff ) at first glance, BUT when they introduce such element, life and death really lose any kind of importance. We can literally have people dying and returning easily right after. Gamora being back is something that I'm not sold. Why? Because, she died and she returned ( her old version before meeting the Guardians ) and that can happen to anybody anytime. Maybe things might get more interesting if the Multiverse suffers serious consequences ( Phase 4 movies at least should adress it ), but I'm not sold on this movie. That being said, I really hope you guys have a lot of fun with it and I'm rooting for good movies, not matter where they come from ( Sony, DC ). We need competition and competition so far has been bad.

Based on reviews, it seems to be a great and fun movie. That's all I want. I want a solid, fun and engaging DC movie. Sure, the main actor has serious legal problems and issues he should be held accountable BUT a movie should be judged as a movie. That being said, Keaton as Batman is gonna bring lots of people back. Its box office is unpredictable, but I guess WB cares enough about reactions, which is why they're being allowed 2 months before the movie's official release. All in all, I'm not really a fanboy of the DC universe, but I'm a regular who usually watches these kind of movies. I really hope the movie is good enough to change things in WB / DC. Gunn seems to be a good choice and I hope we get more options besides Marvel. That's not to start a Marvel vs DC war, but competition is good and we can all have different things from different universes.

My hype went from 0 to 75 in less than 24 hours.

Wow, Venom being pg-13 and Kraven gets R? Interesting.

I think ViewerAnon said this movie's ending looks like The Devil Inside's ending... Now I'm very curious about it, lol.

I'm trying to be optimistic, but: The first wave of reviews for Thor 4 were very positive, with very few being mixed. We all know what happened after the movie got released.

They better know what they're doing, lol. If reviews are indeed great, allowing critics to post on RT won't hurt at all. If presales aren't that good, then good reviews won't hurt them for sure. We'll see. I also have nightmares about fan screenings. I remember how Fan4stic also had them. I still remember when Ludacris said he was proud of Michael Jordan in that movie. XD

Looks pretty much desperate. If they're going that far, then just let critics post their reviews on RT already, so they hopefully see better presales.

59% on RT. Slowly rising to the delicious red tomato! XD

Illumination // Nintendo will probably confirm a sequel sooner or later. Hopefully they don' take 3/4 years to come with it. A Donkey Kong movie with a reasonable budget would be great. Add in Kirby and then you porbably could get a Kirby movie. Zelda is interesting, but I think Illuination should play safe for now. Just come with Super Mario Bros 2, then a Donkey Kong movie and then Kirby.

F CinemaScore?

Vanilla Sky is probably the craziest example of this. 43% on RT and a D- CinemaScore. It got a 4x multiplier for its opening weekend.

No Illumination movie had a CinemaScore lower than A- This is Mario we're talking about. It'll get a great CinemaScore, despite bad critic reviews.

DP for Blue Beetle is the same one who worked on every Ari Aster movie.

245 million worldwde. Domestic and internation numbers are basically the same ( 122 million )

Great worldwide numbers for John Wick 4. Regarding this weekend drop, it lost PLF screens and it's also a long movie ( even though I didn't feel the running time ). Previous one dropped 5&% but it was helped by holidays. I guess the numbers will probably be fine for the rest of its domestic run. John Wick is a weekend movie.

Is John Wick 4 getting a release?

This movie is the true definition of "whatever". It came and it went away. Nobody cares or almost nobody cares. Not good enough to be good, not bad enough to be bad. It was just a movie. Trailers were generic, marketing was generic, cast was generic, action was generic, ending was generic, villains were generic.

Might be, based on what I read. It seems to be a tough watch for general audiences. However, would general audiences even care to watch a movie like this? I watched the trailer and the whole concept looks weird imo. I don't know if the trailer can trick people into thinking this is gonna be a "thriller". Maybe Cronenberg fanbase ( he probably has one ) is the one rushing to see it, avoiding the F CinemaScore.

Looks great, but I hope it's not the usual I'm really suspecting that to be the case, based on

Can't wait to see the CinemaScore for Bones and All.

I found Norm of the North. It has a 22% Audience Score on RT, but that's before verified score was a thing.

I enjoyed this one. It was dumb fun. Imissed this kind fo movie. I wouldn't mind a sequel.
