  1. People should really stop trying to convince others of why they are mistaken after they've already made their point as to why they didn't like the movie. I get it if the person is a troll, hasn't seen the movie, makes illogical conclusions and statements etc. but when you try to argue that they should find this type of humour funny, that's just retarded. Humour is not a one size fits all.

    Agreed and liking the movie basically hinged on liking the comedy in it because the action parts weren't nearly as exciting as the ones in winter soldier, so I can understand why people didn't like the movie even though I did.

  4. Got back from the movie tonight, we quite enjoyed it. How the heck is this movie rated worse than Superman Returns on rottentomatoes? MOS was about a trillion times more entertaining than that piece of crap!

     

    This should be quite a crowd-pleaser with good WOM.

     

    Superman Returns was more of a tribute to the original Superman movies which older critics loved, but this one was a more modern Superman and tried something a little different.  Considering how important and influential the first two are, the fact that this took a different route, 57% on RT isn't too bad.

  5. Epic deserves to be in the thread title. It's a player this weekend for sure.

     

    I think people really underestimated Epic, it's in a fantastic slot.  The last computer animated kids movie was The Croods 2 months ago,  FF6 and TH3 don't target family audiences.  It's only real competition for families is IM3 which came out 3 weeks ago.  There isn't another animated kids movie until Monsters University in a month.  All Fox had to do was give a the regular old marketing push and it's doing fine.

  6. FF6 fans rejoice, a locally owned theater near me isn't even showing Hangover 3 this weekend

  7. No one knew who Iron Man was until 2008...

     

    Yeah, also his comic sells like shit in comparison to how many people see the Iron Man movies.

     

    Batman has five solo books and they all sell above Iron Man's only solo book

     

    In April

    Batman #19 - 132K

    Batman and Robin #19 - 89K

    Detective Comics #19 - 78K

    Batman, Incorporated #10 - 56K

    Batman: The Dark Knight #19 - 53K

    Iron Man #8 - 44K (With Variant Covers)

     

    It should get a boost in May because of IM3 but seriously Iron Man has never been near as recognizable or bankable as Batman, IM1 was a huge risk

  8. I mentioned this in the weekend predictions thread, but I counted up the Saturday showtimes for the 3 big theaters around me, and I got:

     

    Hangover 3 - 53

    Fast & Furious 6 - 37

    Epic - 34 (19/15)

    STID - 51 (36/15)

    IM3 - 19 (15/4)

    Great Gatsby - 17 (12/5)

    42 - 1

     

    (2D/3D split)

     

     

    25 STiD (12/13)

    23 TH3

    20 FF6

    20 Epic (10/10)

    12 TGG (6/6)

    12 IM3 (6/6)

    1 P&G

    1 42

    1 Croods

     
    The two biggest theaters near me.  Star Trek is somehow getting the most showtimes I don't know why

    2015 will have two Pixar movies.  You'd think with all their success it would've taken them less than 20 years to start releasing more than 1 film a year.  Dreamworks has been doing it since 2004.

  10. Uh, that's the movie that killed the franchise so it had to be rebooted. ;) STID had a $200m budget, not including marketing. If it just barely passes 200 DOM, Paramount is likely looking at a loss or not much of a profit. This isn't an OS series to save it. If it's not profitable and Abrams doesn't want to make another one, Paramount could easily send the series into darkness. At least for another decade or so until a new reboot comes along.

     

    I smell a CW TV series
