Tom Cruise and Stephen King have more money than God and I believe Cruise primarily works with Paramount. Why the hell would either of them care about hyping up The Flash? Maybe....just MAYBE.... they saw the movie and liked it? Why is that so hard for some people to believe? This thread is garbage.

RT% means nothing for this. Point blank. People know full well what to expect at this point and if it delivers for overseas audiences that's all that's going to matter. I did not love the last couple of them though. I really would like this to be more like 'Fast Five' because that was a very well done action movie that was not winking at the audience. That was just a movie with cool stunts and was like "here, this is cool, watch this" without the director trolling. Obviously the very first The Fast and the Furious movie is my all time favorite but they'll never get back to that level. Too low stakes and they never have a writer that's interested in that witty type of dialogue. You think Ayer penned most of the script? It's obviously the best script of these.

GOTG vol. 3 is more proof that if the movies are good people will show up. The opening weekend was a bit muted by their standards but WOM has now kicked in. And that's how it should be. Obviously there were people who were interested but didn't want to get burned again by another bad movie. Personally, I never doubted James Gunn.

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3 WEEKEND THREAD
Johnny Tran replied to Eric Prime's topic in Numbers and Data
The Batman did close to $800M in a limited 45-day release before heading to Max. I would not rule out the major characters from doing big numbers. The other stuff looks risky. -

$123M weekend/? -
What was the original question? Joker had like 11 Oscar nominations to go along with multiple awards nominations and wins across awards season. It won 2 Oscars. It also won the Golden Lion. Just because some bloggers didn't review it well doesn't mean it wasn't one of the most highly acclaimed comic book movies ever.

This is corny. A lot of people's first impressions were that the movie is fantastic so now people are coming out of the woodwork wanting to be contrarians and get their hot take off about how "it's not as good as they said!!" and nitpick about things that happen in every CBM. Hilarious, yet sad and pathetic stuff.

THE SUPER MARIO BROS MOVIE WEEKEND THREAD
Johnny Tran replied to Eric Prime's topic in Numbers and Data
Happy to see this come to fruition. I felt Mario could do very very well and once I saw the trailer, it blew me away. What a ride since then. -

I was not aware that 8-year olds are factored into the audience score -
THE SUPER MARIO BROS MOVIE WEEKEND THREAD
Johnny Tran replied to Eric Prime's topic in Numbers and Data
The numbers say otherwise. The audience scores say otherwise. Sometimes critics miss and that's okay. Again, they are human beings with opinions and for whatever reason they didn't get this movie. Every other metric out there says that they are the outliers. -
THE SUPER MARIO BROS MOVIE WEEKEND THREAD
Johnny Tran replied to Eric Prime's topic in Numbers and Data
I don't harp on critics often, they are just people with opinions, some critics are very well-educated people with a wealth of knowledge but sometimes the majority of critics just get it wrong and that's exactly what happened here. Last night's performance showed that nobody cares about their opinion on this. -
By the way, if these CBM flops do force studios to get a little more creative and we see more straight action movies like Top Gun: Maverick then I am all for it.. Most comic book movies are using a very tired formula. I only get interested now if it's a comic book movie that is aspiring to be another genre (see: The Batman )
