[#ED]

Come on now.

What? I can post WOM too and assume Walmart sold all tickets.

I literally feel sorry for anyone who thinks this movie is anything more than mediocre.

Decent profile pic.

Shitty comment.

Man of Steel is looking to open around $8.5M in South Korea, more than doubling SR(opened 3.7M in 2006).

Do we have estimates?

 

6 M. 47% drop.

Is 3D IMAX worth it?

If you want to come out of theater with a massive headache. Yes.

I was just confirming.

 

Well at least somebody that works there can give some insight on the ticket sales. Not that it matters in the bottom line for this weekend. But the 12m does kind of pump up the demand artificially. That's just my opinion though. We'll never know how many tickets were actually sold for the event, how much Walmart paid etc. It will be interesting to see the drop for next weekend that's for sure.

Great Gatsby's number can't be right. A 60% drop from Thursday to Friday and am 87% drop for the week?!

[druv10]

Do we have estimates?

 

BO.com is projecting 47% drop for it.

Try 2D IMAX if you can. It looked amazing. Sound was way too loud though.

You just made that up to taunt the guy. But whatever.

[The Stingray]

You know it's true.

I thought you had him on ignore.

[Dipper]

I'm assuming Ray is predicting a massive increase today? 

 

Paired with a smaller decline on Sunday (Father's Day) would add up to his numbers, though how high they may be

6 M. 47% drop.

 

That's not studio estimates. We don't even have an official friday estimate, i think.

[Blankments]

The critics went in to expect another BB and they got a loud Snyder action-orgasm and instead of doing their job to look at the film on it's own decided to to compare MoS to Super 1-2 and BB. In that regards it fails big time, but if Marvel and FF6 gets a pass for their tons of stupidness and dumbness, why can't DC? Oh well, who cares about critics when the BO and WoM is on fire.

... I thought you liked the movie?

Anyone care to catch me up on what's happened  in the last 24 hours?

I saw it in 2d, but it looked to me like a film that would be poorly served by 3d.  The action is too fast and cluttered (in a good way) for 3d.

I don't get the big deal on the Walmart thing.  They bought a bunch of tickets, but didn't use all of them.  Do we discount everyone who pre-buys tickets and then doesn't end up going?  Cause otherwise, every movie has some amount of this kind of shift in it's take.

 

How is a family not going to the movies because a kid fell ill or some such the same as a middleman who just so happens to be a nation wide franchise brand buying a shitload of tickets wholesale in hopes of selling all of them to their customers, but aren't quite able to do so?

Can you post your calculations?
