I'm really not understand BOM's PP VS. PP2 showdown. WHYY?!

Easier to track just how much the sequel has increased it's not a "showdown" per se.

[DAJK]

There are barely any preview shows. 7pm is IMAX and Large Formats only, normal screens are midnight.

We aren't getting any Thursday showings here. I'm looking through theatres in British Colombia, and the only ones I'm finding are in Vancouver so far.

POLTERGEIST opens in 3,240 theaters this weekend. #Poltergeist

Lol all the butthurt bat boys are going to cry when Avengers 2 freight trains it way past TDKR.

 

Who's going to be butthurt?  I think most expected AOU to pass TDKR...the fact that it will turtle it's way past it is the surprise.

[baumer]

I wouldn't be surprised if BvS finishes with not much more than MoS, it looks terrible. 

 

How does it look terrible?  It's not even finished filming yet.

[Lordmandeep]

I be more concerned if batman vs superman looks good as we know hack sunder is a con artists with trailers

[baumer]

Poltergeist is showing only at 10 pm in Toronto and surrounding area.  Thursday numbers are going to be soft.

Presumably they mean from the trailer. Oh and the fact that Zack Snyder is directing

That's a teaser trailer that shows nothing.

[John Marston]

Batman vs Superman will be huge and Snydee is not a " hack".

I agree, I'm just explaining Ozy's logic

Current rottentomatoes:

 

Tomorrowland - 52%

Poltergeist - 50%

 

 

Poltergeist finishing higher would be worthy of the phrase "an upset for the ages"

Thats not how the showdowns have ever worked. I think that's why every is so confused. 

 

And I think its kind of obvious how much the increase was when the 2nd movie beat the first in one weekend.

How are previews looking. Are either Tomorrowland or Poltergeist looking at anything significant or its all too small to even be reported.
