DAJK Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'm gonna see it on Saturday, do I need to have watched the first one or can I not bother? If you just read a short plot synopsis you should e good. But watching the first movie shouldn't be a chore It's not a bad little film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Saw this yesterday. The first is better but this is not really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catlover Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Saw this yesterday. The first is better but this is not really bad. Great! As long as it's entertaining. I loved the first one despite the mixed reviews. Gonna see this tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kowhite Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 This kinda drag a bit. Had some wtf moments. Haven't read the books so some stuff confused me. Ok but how's it compare to the first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Ok but how's it compare to the first? The first is better. It has a better and more exciting ending as well. I think 2nd books are usual victims of the 'drag' syndrome. The 'journey' in the second film has scenes that are kinda repetitive. I don't know how much has been changed though since I haven't read the book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Nice! Glad it's been steadily rising since that (admittedly unsettling for me) 38%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalesofToday Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 RT at 60% - now fresh: http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/maze_runner_the_scorch_trials/ For now. Take a screenshot, it may not last. But man, I really hope it isn't as bad as the early reviews say it is. I can handle a little cheesiness in a film and something that is short on story so long as the action is entertaining. God knows I've forgiven a lot of flaws in other films that critics have panned.

alisson23 Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 This means almost nothing but it is already fourth place with 4% of sales at movietickets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalesofToday Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 This means almost nothing but it is already fourth place with 4% of sales at movietickets I'm not familiar with the accuracy/correlation of movietickets sales tracking with overall box office but I guess that's good. How did other films do in the past at this point assuming a $40-$50m tracking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
