Just got out. Fantastic movie. Loved it. Critics can sivk ass.

Dabang3 presales in Karnataka are awful. It may not turn out to be a disaster of historic proportions like Zero, (released this weekend a year ago), since it is a sequel to 2 successful movies. Surprising considering a Kannada actor is playing the villain.

Congratulations, Marvel. Well deserved. They have built a phenomenal franchise since 2008. 😎😎😎

While TLK 2019 looks to be a mega blockbuster, it will still be a soul less cash grab. I have no interest in this rehash even though I'm a huge fan of 1994 version. Watched the original 6 times in the theater in 1994.

Screw Titanic. It is End Game time.

The same with Titanic overtaking ET after 15 years and A New Hope After 20 years. Inflation.

First rate egomaniac is more apt. 🤔🤔🤔

The drop for EG is higher at 45% and the percentage hold of Thursday vs opening Friday is worse for EG. That eliminates the day to day variations. Even with ridiculously bigger craze and better wom, EG legs are slightly worse albeit with much bigger numbers. Anyway, the drop is slightly worse than normal. The Friday to Thursday drop highlights the fact.

Nope. IW dropped 42% on May 2nd. So it is neither normal or better even though EG has bigger numbers than IW. But again EG WOM is better than IW and I was hoping for a better hold. Still the performance is incredible.

It could if it legs it out. There are no major releases till May 17th.

Yes. Despite IW having better exchange rates 67.44 vs 69.1 for EG. Further the GST rates for IW was 28% (Over rs.100) and 18% (Up to rs. 100) for IW while it is 18% and 12% for EG. So EG performance is phenomenal whichever way you look at.

Yes. With Rs. 365 Crores Nett, It would be about $ 63 M gross.

The Thursday drop was bigger than I thought it would be. Looks like now EG will stall at about Rs. 365 Crores Nett. I was hoping for Rs. 400 crore+

Phenomenal is an understatement here. 😎 Just cannot wait for AEG to brush aside the king of egomaniacs and take the crown.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.ibtimes.co.in/baahubali-2-fetches-record-rs-17-crore-tax-karnataka-government-rs-13-5-crore-bengaluru-alone-728050 "The Karnataka government levies 30 percent as entertainment tax for non-Kannada movies. Baahubali 2 has fetched over Rs 17 crore as tax to the Siddaramaiah government. However, the trade reports claim that the flick has minted over Rs 100 crore, which means the government should be getting Rs 30 crore as tax, which is leading to a lot of confusion." Bahubali 2 gross in Karnataka is no more than 60 crores. The 120 number is somebody's wet dream.

Entertainment tax in Karnataka was 30%. A 120 crores gross would have resulted in ET of about 30 crores. Either way, my ex partner was the distributor of BB. The numbers were completely bogus. I have reviewed every single DCR of BB and BB2.

Btw, I don't know about Bollywood. The box office numbers from South Indian movies claimed are completely false. For example, the paid media was claiming Bahubali 2 grossed 100 crores from Karnataka. The state announced that they had received only Rs. 17 crores as Entertainment Tax for BB2. They were wondering how come there was a discrepancy, since a Rs. 100 crore gross should have resulted in Rs. 30 crore entertainment tax. The same with KGF. All bogus numbers.

Akshay Kumar couldn't act if his life depended on it. Not very surprising.

Loved the movie. While it is not as good as Unbreakable, it is still very good. The buildup is great. McAvoy was great. I'm surprised at the negative reviews. A

Btw I loved Amber Heard in the movie. I just cannot believe I said that.

What a blast. Loved it. Real fun movie after a series of absolute stinkers from DC. Give the DC keys to James Wan. He shall resurrect their sorry asses. A

Complete waste of time. D

I liked the movie. While inferior to the original, it was still a lot of fun. Denzel is good. The action scenes are well staged. B+

My second favorite Shyamalan movie. The movie is superbly made with tense situation, great humor and excellent performances. "People break down into two groups. When they experience something lucky......," Extremely rewatcheable. Love it. A

Awesome movie. The action is spectacular. Loved it.
