  1. I was never wrong about The AVENGERS and I won't be for TDKR either..

    Please, as I've said, you have no idea what you're taking about, are a joke and guessed right about TA hitting $500+m but it was just blind luck (ala Kal with Avatar, assume everything you like will be huge and get something right eventually) and you have been wrong about everything TA related since its release (first Monday, thursday, second weekend, all weekdays, third weekend, etc) and will be wrong about TDKR.

    Good Tues #s all around though.

  2. I have yet to come across someone who says RoTK is one of their favorite films. And I have spoken to A LOT of people about movies.

    I always felt the LOTR movies should be viewed as a whole, and the trilogy is one of the highest regarded of all time (right next to the OT)...ROTK is an excellent movie, and rewarded (critically and financially) because of how great the 3 movies are as a whole.

  3. You're an insider, and because of that your range has always been very precise. 6-7 mill is just following a normal pattern of drops on Wednesday. If you were paying attention, you'd have a better range. I could have told you it would be between 6-7. That's a drop of 18-30%...quite the range.

    Woah, a little hostile there man. Yes, we all predicted $6-7m, but Rth checked #'s and confirmed it'll be within 6-7, not just guessed based on normal drops, etc. If we predict a 140% increase on Friday and Rth confirms is late that night, it doesn't mean he's not checking the figures, etc. Anyway, let's not piss off our best source :)

  4. Rather disappointed by this after hearing the enormous praise. It has its moments but on the whole this is really just another brainless popcorn flick. The script was high on cheese and low on wit, which is understandable for a superhero movie but to hear the comparisons to TDK is really bizarre to me. This is a decent flick but it doesn't deserve half the money it's making. I can name half a dozen superhero movies that are far superior. I will give it points for character development, though, which is refreshing for this type of movie. The visuals are also stunning.B

    While my grade is higher (A-) I do understand where you're coming from. I've seen it twice, and while it's the perfect summer action popcorn blockbuster, it does lack the substance of some of the other best in the genre. I def rank TA in my top 10 sh/comic book movies, but atm somewhere around 6-10 after TDK, SM2, BB, IM1, and V for Vendetta...it's battling with B89 and SM1 currently.
