A Marvel Fanboy Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 Why another thread ? http://forums.boxoffice.com/index.php?/topic/10862-wednesday-numbers-despicable-me-2-32m-the-lone-ranger-12m/ I thought one thread will do for the extended weekend.

ChD Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 CHD is a minion hater..that does not mean that DM is not a well received movie I'm not a hater, but I don't love them either, like most people do. But reviews in the review section and RT highly suggest that the average is B, don't you think? Just because you're a minion lover, doesn't mean you have the right to redirect the truth against me by saying that I don't like them. I'm entitled to my opinion.

RyneOh1040 Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) The average score for it is B-/B ... I don't see how that is well received. RT score at 80% which also suggests around B. I would say that a 250 million gross after a 56 million OW suggests well received. That along with a 32 million OD for an animated film sequel. I don't think treating a RT score like a test grade is very accurate either. I guarantee this gets an A cinemascore so that's a flawed way of looking at it. With the general audience and families this film was well received there's really no denying that. Edited July 3, 2013 by RyneOh1040 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm entitled to my opinion.Every single post you've made about DM2 is about how it sucks that it's making so much money. That's the definition of a "hater" right there. Regardless you are wrong about how DM was received. Take a look at DVD sales, the long legs it had, RT critics or the 7.6/10 it gets from audiences on IMDB. Not to mention the fact it plays on tv ALL the time. Feel free to voice your opinion, I encourage that, but don't let it blind you to make absurd predictions (80-90m 5-day) when there's no evidence to back that claim up. It's blind hatred and it's coloring your judgement. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many animated movies, good or bad, drop more than 50% on their second weekend. Ah, right... none. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted July 3, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) It's a kids movie. Kids don't know dime about movies. Word of Mouth for animated movies means nothing. How many animated movies, good or bad, drop more than 50% on their second weekend. Ah, right... none. Cars 2 fell 60.3%. And, arguably, kids have the most unbiased point of view when it comes to movies because they aren't spoiled by cynicism and elitism like many adults are. They like what they like, not because someone else tells them they should or shouldn't... but just because they like it, and it entertains them. That's all a movie should ever be.

It's blind hatred and it's coloring your judgement. There was no evidence for 150M either. You all predicted like BKB predicted Avengers and now you take pride for it. It could've been the same deal as it was for Star Trek 2 where people predicted 100M OW. I bet back then you were one of the few to blame to ones who predicted on the wrong side, right? There was no evidence for it to open to 150M either, so it's the same thing as me predicting 80-90M 5Day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every animated movie gets near a 5 multiplier either. Edited July 3, 2013 by RyneOh1040 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
