    I went to see this tonight but I found it quite boring. I was clock watching.

     

    The hockey guy was dreadful. Should have deleted his part and gave the lines to Megan Fox, movie wouldn't have changed. 

     

    Yeah, I found the first one watchable, but I didnt care much for this one. While it was cheesy and a bit more in the spirit of the turtles than the first, the movie was just boring... like, hella boring. And the end was basically a joke. The airplane/water scene which they pushed in the advertising was really the only decent action set piece in the whole film. The stuff before and after was a snooze fest.

  2. With the positive reviews, I can totally see this breaking out to 50M+. While I can see it opening above the original, I still see its final gross under, though not by much. While it would be great to see it increase, I imagine it will be more frontloaded this time around. It would need to increase substantially from the firsts opening weekend to go past it, unless it's just a beast, which given the great reviews, it very well could be. I could see it pulling a 45-50M OW and finishing around 120-130M. Pretty close to, but not quite where the first finished.

    I know the movie is by all accounts a major dud but every Elfman score is an event for me so I'm excited to see this in a few hours.

    I was disappointed at the lack of connection to the first film. Beyond the chopping triplet motif in the string, we basically never encounter that whole "Alice" statement that permeated the first film. And the choir is almost completely either nonexistent, or mixed so poorly it's not heard. I need to listen to it outside of the film, but from what I heard, it wasn't even close to the level of the first film.

    Everything works right the wife and I are catching both X-men and Alice tomorrow before we leave for our cruise.... starting our public child free time the right way - dinner then the movies 

    I just got out of Alice... How about you just not go and instead, go buy a drink. It will be a lot more fun and hella less painful.

    Wish I had the kind of courage it takes to admit you're actually paying to see Alice this weekend.

    This wasn't by choice. My man is working and would murder me if I saw it without him, and I have friends in town this week and they wanted to go to a movie... Little did I know it was Alice. Oh well, I talked them out of IMAX and into the cheapest seats possible. Lol so it's at least a cheap mistake.

  6. So I am in line for Alice... Fml. I hate myself. But anyway, X-Men is only showing twice tonight at the busiest theater in town, and we are an hour out from the first show and it has yet to sell out. It's at a little over 50%... Which is hella low. Alice is even worse, but it has four showing including the IMAX. But again, no one has even lined up for the IMAX show and only four of us are here for the standard 2D show... I foresee a very exciting weekend, but not in the good kind of exciting way.

  7. While CW is definitely still a success financially, it's proving to be a lot more front loaded than I think anyone expected. I think next weekend is going to be the scariest, unless

    X-Men really disappoints and it doesnt take as bad of a blow. At least its a holiday so it can make up a little ground. 400M is still a good bet and is nothing to get our panties in a twist over.

     

    Great for Birds. I really expected it to open much lower than anticipated. 

     

    Neighbors is Ted 2 all over again. lol Although I still want to see it and hope it can manage to sprout some legs.
