Rotten is bad, imo. 60 is bad too, you’r ethe first person I’ve seen suggest otherwise. 65 I guess you could describe as being on the low end of medium, but... that’s less than 2 out of 3 critics giving it a fresh review. It’s only “decent” compared to expectations of 20-40 (where 75% of the recent movies in that universe had landed).

Godzilla Pulse doesn’t look great, but can’t compare Mon to Mon for obvious reasons. Can compare end of Mon numbers to last week end of Sun numbers, but I’d say just wait for Tues. -

This means that in-release vs in-release comps from 2014 should be reasonable, and presale vs presale comps. Presale vs in-release, not so much. -
“Critics are getting tired of these live action remakes” is a pretty different claim than “critics are biased against Disney.” I doubt many people who agree with the former (of which I am one) think that that has anything to do with how critics treat: MCU Star Wars Pixar WDAS Disney non-remake live action You’re conflating a plausible narrow claim with a different, much broader, wrong one (imo).

There’s no right and wrong, but audience is much closer to the average opinion because there are considerable more of them. There’s not some written on stone tablets objectively correct assessment of the movie, but if you want to know “if I picked somebody at random are they likely to like the movie” — as a statistical matter — audience is clearly much more valuable than critic.

17 PT 5/26/19 (End of Sun) 1 51.2% Aladdin 2 12.6% John Wick:Chapter 3 - Parabellum 3 12% Avengers: Endgame 4 7.3% Pokémon Detective Pikachu 5 3.2% Booksmart Not sure how things will move on the holiday Mon, but a bit surprised to see Endgame within striking distance of Wick today. Overall not much movement. Think we’ll see Zilla show up Tuesday. -

Dark Phoenix is releasing into a dead continuity, with a bunch of characters that X-men fans know will be rebooted in a handful of years. If it does small numbers I don’t think anyone will be too surprised about it. -
Huge % of people saw Incredibles and thought “I want a sequel.” Then half a dozen years later happen to be think about it out of the blue and think,”damn, how cool would a sequel be.” Not a lot of people watch TLK and think “wow, I hope they remake this in CGI in 25 years.” I’m not saying it’ll do bad, but I think there is a very wide range this far out. Gimme some reviews and some Ps and we can narrow things a bit more, but you can never remove that much uncertainty until the OW is happening. Last several years are absolutely rife with movies doing way more or way less than this board though a week before debut.
