Jack Nevada Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 There are a lot of bad things about it, but overall it's no worse than say Battleship or Red Dawn. But you gave high praise to both of those movies, 9,5/10 and 8,5/10 if I recall correctly, but gave AE a 6/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is AE is no worse than those films as other people rated them. If you ask me, AE is about on par with TDKR. But I didn't feel like mentioning that because of the shit storm it causes.

4815162342 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 A 1.8 Thurs for STID is only a 30% drop from last week. Should be on track for a very healthy weekend drop. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 A 1.8 Thurs for STID is only a 30% drop from last week. Should be on track for a very healthy weekend drop. Damage is done. Its doing $225M at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) Damage is done. Its doing $225M at best. Your point? A good drop is a good drop, no matter how you slice it. It underwhelmed by a fair deal on its OW but since then it's performing rather well (since everything collapsed last weekend it can't get faulted for that). And the OS increase, especially in Asian markets, is very promising. So STID comes out a winner, just not with the gold star a good number of people expected.

baumer Posted June 7, 2013 Author Share Posted June 7, 2013 Which is worse?? John Carter or AFTER EARTH, Better Known now as AFTER FAIL?? In terms of quality, JC is twice the film AE is. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 In terms of quality, JC is twice the film AE is. History books will forever label it a failure. But for me... John Carter of Mars was great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxOfficeZ Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 (edited) I actually really liked John Carter. The problem with that film was the marketing, not the film's quality. AE on the other hand...is both a terrible film and rather lacking in marketing. Edited June 7, 2013 by BoxOfficeZ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zackzack Posted June 7, 2013 Share Posted June 7, 2013 Which is worse?? John Carter or AFTER EARTH, Better Known now as AFTER FAIL?? JOHN CARTER is not a bad film, a more entertaining Saturday night rental. Kitschy Taylor is a Masterpiece Theater Actor next to Junior Jaden. However I feel that Shyamalan is unfairly slighted. He is not in his top form it's because he is lacking in studio support. He works in scifi/fantasy genre which gets little support when it is not a comic book adaptation or sequel to a popular franchise. Remember this is the guy who did SIXTH SENSE & UNBREAKABLE. He should work with Summit or Lionsgate where they might/ would leave him alone. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
