  1. Yeah it was a bad release date for Twisters. Kicking of the summer would have been great but it was probably not finished yet and people would have complained about the terrible VFX. Switching it with DM4 would have been the better move but they did not. Still  It  has overperformed massively what most of thought even a week and a half a go. It is going in to the weekend with about 120 m and based on that thursday should still do over 30 million with a strong saturday and sunday.

    I will be happy to not have to hear "Twisters is gonna be destroyed" anymore. Definitely doesn't look like it is at my nearby theaters

    Ah just last week when many of us were still saying how Universal really screwed the pooch by releasing it the week before DP and W. Have never been so happy to be wrong.  Even better that right now is proving that people want to go to the movie theaters  when there are movies they want to see. It's that simple.

    59% RT didn't do shit to Mario and 63% RT didn't do shit to Aquaman 1. Might be a scenario where critics think its meh but audiences have fun with it. 

    It's at 79% right now and  has been holding steady in the 79-85 range since the embargo dropped.  Twisters is at 77%.  Why are still talking about it likes it's gonna go rotten or be  barely fresh?

  4. The last 24 hours of this thread is exhibit A for what a insane asylum this place truly is.  Are we seeing Dark Knight level reviews here? Of Course not., And anybody that thought a Shawn Levy movie would get that level of praise is insane.  But we sure as shit are not seeing Batman and Robin or even close as some suggested. Unless this pulls a WW 1984 it's probably not going rotten and it probably stays above 70%. And by all accounts it will be a  GA crowd pleaser.   

  5. Really wish I had stuck to my guns on Twisters being a Walkup monster /Late Bloomer. I let the trackers and the eh presales reports influence me. Shawn and BO Pro both  stuck with it and they were right.  So great to see it happen. It feels like the rest of the year should be really good and we can be out of the doom and gloom theatrical is dead or dying thing for a while.
