riczhang Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Ha yeah true, but I more meant like how you can buy up results to be on the first page of google searches, etc That too, but I've always been sceptical about how well that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biggestgeekever Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 I can understand buying google searches or twitter trends, but a Fandango 5 spot? What would that achieve other than get people like us excited? The Fandango 5 isn't even all that accessible from the Fandango front page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Reviews did not matter they said...MOS was flying past 300 million they said... The reviews didn't matter. Film opened to nearly $130m in 3.5 days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dashrendar44 Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) Fandango 5 sounds like the Mexican rip-off response to Jackson 5. Edited June 25, 2013 by dashrendar44 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eraserhead Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 (edited) The truth is that MOS's WOM is kinda mixed. I've talked to many people who loved it, hated it or are somewhere in between. I haven't talked to many people who would put it up there with the Nolan-Batman movies or the best of the Marvel Studios movies though.

Eraserhead Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 The reviews didn't matter. Film opened to nearly $130m in 3.5 days. Reviews probably have much more of an impact post-OW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 MU should hopefully do 300M. Probably will end up being the best animated movie of this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't talked to many people who would put it up there with the Nolan-Batman movies or the best of the Marvel Studios movies though. Yeah I think it's definitely mixed. Reactions have been all over the place with everyone I've talked to. Some people I know like it better than BB and some think it's worse than SR.

wileECoyote Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 The reviews didn't matter. Film opened to nearly $130m in 3.5 days.Reviews were never going to have an effect for OW but they didn't help its legs for sure. I'd say mixed WOM and reviews are keeping moviegoers on the fence from trying this out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstasy Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 They are...but what studio wouldn't want their movie in the top 5 list with a juicy buy now button right there. Okay where are these rumors coming from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mummy had a 55% RT rating and its sequel had a massive opening weekend because the film was loved by the audience regardless of what critics had to say about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now You See Me has a rotten RT score and is having some great legs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 At this point, I'll wait for the NYSM blu ray. I hate watching movies in theaters when the screening is empty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
