Agreed, always better when it's mutual. Cheers
-
Never seen you post before...and never will again! Can't imagine you ever say anything that interests me with such a absurd take
-
Probably are. Projected 3M for the weekend and will get that today most likely
-
Don't forget the Stan Lee factor in this movie which will surely have a cameo and is the first since his death.
-
Fwiw this is on the list for all my comic book/comic book movie watching friends. And everyone is excited for it. I think it'll zip past 150M. The Spider-man property is also riding high off the success of the PlayStation game

Well-worded reply but I disagree. What you're often reading is a pretentious, self-centered piece focused on that critic selling themself. It colors your own response to the movie...confines your experience whether you think so or not. I enjoy movies a lot more by ignoring reviews. As authors (reviewers) focus more on their own brand rather than thinking about the experience more broadly they HOPEFULLY will naturally die out.

Can't have it both ways. If their job is not to help audiences determine if they will like a movie then their job has no mass appeal and is near pointless

China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30
Rumpot replied to A Marvel Fanboy's topic in China At The Box Office
Yeah, but that's more due to retail shopping. Theaters in malls, etc. Singles day is almost all online shopping. Agreed, will see tomorrow -
China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30
Rumpot replied to A Marvel Fanboy's topic in China At The Box Office
WOM quenched? no...This is China's big shopping day like Black Friday on steroids. Makes perfect sense ticket sales will fall without reflecting on WOM as Gavin said. https://mobile.reuters.com/article/amp/idUSKCN1NG01W?__twitter_impression=true -
Goosebumps past First Man now...and gonna pull away
-
ASIB is not going over Venom for the weekend with a lower Friday..... probably not even that close of a race
-
This is a great opening for a movie like this! Dunno why people expected CBM numbers. This is a good horror movie with a lot of nostalgia, but without that viral grab that something like IT has. You need that to really get the younger demos. The horror aspect is also not gonna satisfy what many of the Conjuring series fans look for

The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo

Wife and I enjoyed it. But it was nowhere near IT level full around here -
The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo

I like this prediction -
I said Joe Mantegna....
-
Deadline may end up wrong about ASIB>Venom
-
"Oof at Venom's drop, sequel isn't going to go well" and "Literally no one is saying Venom is dropping well" were your supposed points....anyway, I'm quite ready to move on...assume you are too
-
Let me know when you're ready to make a point. And I actually didn't like the movie
-
Hahaha. You sir, are laughable. This forum should be about factual analysis and not just a place for taking out a bad mood you're having.
-
Goosebumps probably gonna take down First Man too. True Friday not far off and gonna smash it today and tomorrow
-
Haha raise your hands if you actually though ASIB would beat Venom Saturday....it's barely above half
-
People get so rooted in their original prediction that once it's clear they are wrong the just nudge in that direction but try to stay as close to their original prediction as possible. This is why you had people on this forum and Gitesh, etc still saying 50-55M even after the 10M Thursday. Once you realize you are wrong about something you will do better forgetting your original prediction and looking at it again fresh. People are off Monday and this IS getting good WOM/buzz. 85M+ in my mind is quite likely and higher possible if it plays well with kids/matinees which it seems to be in this area at least
-
Calling Venom opening weekend over JL opening weekend.
-
You guys can't be serious about Venom losing Saturday or Sunday to ASIB. This isn't summer, kids are in school. This movie is made for them and matinees are gonna be full. Frontloaded blah blah, RT score blah blah. None of that matters. And predictions of 60M or lower are silly at this point. I'm watching both Venom and ASIB this weekend and think both will do great, but Venom has a much wider potential audience and anyone who thinks RT effects more than a fringe group of people for a movie about a gooey monster that eats people and talks about it is just plain wrong
