He's not a character in this at all. It was depressing.
Yeah he's not even used as a proper plot device here. The writing was truly horrendous! -
I'm a Batman Returns stan but the way they handled Keaton's comeback and character in this felt laughably bad. Man deserved better!

Your talking as if Flash is some big property in India.
Its opening day will be more than Flash's total gross.
I do see over enthusiastic Indian DC fans on twitter/social media so thought it would be huge there lol. -
So it will end up making more than Flash there!?

Saw a clip and I'm surprised how naive people were when they thought the CGI would be fixed before release lol. WB gonna WB.
At least with Aquabro 2 it hopefully won't be a problem with Wan at helm. -

It Chapter Two definitely under performed both critically and commercially given the hype from the first.
-
Last official promo/clip was uploaded a good two weeks ago. At least the marketing isn't in your face all the time like star war.
-
Lol it's already out on VOD.
-
Had no idea there would be another screening for these more mainstream bloggers/critics. Disney needs to start their final marketing push in like 2 weeks.
-
50% rotten among top critics with 5.7 average. Damn!
-
Lol all this hype for months and these reviews. WB gonna WB!

Man another insane drop! It seems to have got a few shows from Fast X at my local theater. I bet Disney thinks they should have released it a week early in late April.

I did see few audiences going "Wut?" with that ending. So not surprised at the Cinemascore. Infinity War got the same, at least it's not as bad as Fast X lol.
-
Still think this could surprise a bit if the action/adventure part delivers. Lot of zoomers I know are catching up with the franchise now, thanks Disney+.

Liked it enough, but not as much as the first. However the animation here is insane!

I'll check it out eventually and it will be a great movie for sure, but it looks too busy for me with this many Spider-Men.
-
Lol it falls into the trap of last Rambo/Terminator films from the reviews. Where the franchises already had a decent enough ending for most of the audiences in the previous movie. At least it looks more fun than those.

I will make an argument that I think some people will find annoying but that I truly do believe in:
Even tho yes, CGI is not the most important part of a movie, it DOES play a part in how a film is sold visually to the audience. And when a movie has noticeably bad CGI in its marketing material, I do believe it can create a negative impression on the audience especially if it's for a franchise known for its varying degrees of qualities like this one.
The average movie-goer may not care about all the little details that film fans do, but like... they do have eyes. If something looks off, they will notice it. Countless marketing studies have been done on how even really irrelevant stuff in advertising that no one even notices can entice or turn off consumers, is it really that big of a stretch to think that some of the bad CGI shown in the trailers might be serving as a turn-off here? Hell, in a movie theater, when you have several trailers next to each other and The Flash stands out as having the worst CGI of them all, is it that far fetched to think it may be having an impact?
And before anyone mentions Marvel, yeah, the CGI can be bad in some of their movies. But you know what? Marvel does a ridiculously good job at hiding that in their trailers. Every single time a Flash teaser or TV Spot or trailer has released, there's always like a thousand comments or retweets pointing out several frames that "look bad" or "like a videogame", and aside from Quantumania, I can't recall that happening with any other MCU film to the same scale. And sure, the average movie-goer isn't part of those comments or quote retweets—but they have eyes and they're bound to notice the same things.
The average consumer has the extra-cynicism in that they're not invested enough to think "oh they'll fix it once it comes out in a few months", they're just gonna take it at face value.
I mean this movie has no excuse to look worse than NWH and Shang-Chi which came out at the middle of the pandemic with rushed production. -
Damn, this is selling out tix faster than Fast X at my nearest theater with just two showings. I'm going again tomorrow hopefully!

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny | June 30 2023 | Very mixed reviews out of Cannes
in Box Office Discussion

The opening sequence is great, classic Indy. But everything after it could have been a lot better. Mangold and the writers seemed to have phoned it in. The movie is literally carried by Ford and Mads.
