You're basing it off of nothing and passing your opinion as a fact. Don't even try it. If you're so sure Ant-Man will hit 200m lets make a bet shall we?

I'm basing it of the Marvel brand and the confidence.

And WOM, that's important too. If its good, it will help carry this thing.

One mixed trailer is not enough to say it won't.

The concept just isn't appealing to the GA, that is the problem Edited June 8, 2015 by Ethan Hunt

I'm thinking about 45/120M

I'm right there at 50/140.

[MrFanaticGuy34]

This.

I second that.

Like I said you're basing it off of nothing. Brand helps, but doesn't guarantee. I've heard nothing, but comments like "that looks stupid" for Antman.

Don't give me that crap about "basing it off for nothing".

 Box Office.com's first long range forecast had GOTG opening at $68 million. Ant-man doesn't quite have the buzz today that GOTG had 6 weeks before it opened.

You're the one giving crap. You're basing a prediction for a movie off of the brand name only. There's no data to back you up, it's your opinion, not a fact. Deal with it.

[John Marston]

Ant Man will do fine. 180m domestic and 500m worldwide. Maybe even more. The second trailer was well received. 

[La Binoche]

I enjoyed Spy but it wasn't 95%-on-RT good. I didn't find it that much better than The Heat, which got a 65%. Maybe it's because critics love Paul Feig for continuing to tell stories about women and for turning someone who looks like Melissa McCarthy into a movie star? Which is fine by me. 

 

But I'm not surprised the #s were what they were: pretty good but nothing special.

(This is getting ridiculous...)

You know what, fine. If you want to prove us wrong with your "so called logics", fine I'll accept that. But don't ruin the anticipation for other people.

Would you give it a positive review?

Not you. Lol.

Oi vey. I give up, not worth it.

95% on RT doesn't mean it's 9.5/10 quality. It just means almost all critics liked it rather than disliking it. If you like it & RT is fresh then you're in agreement with RT. It's really as simple as that (not that agreeing/disagreeing with RT matters).

[La Binoche]

Yes, I know how RT works. I know that even though I didn't love it, I would still give it a Fresh rating, like 95% of the critics.

So this weekend I've watched It Follows, Ex Machina (the only 1 of the 4 that I've seen before), Tropic Thunder, and just now finished Mockingjay Part 1. Wow, Mockingjay Part was a big letdown. Talk about a waste of a movie. The first half hour was dreadful, until Woody Harrelson showed up and Katniss gave her speech at the hospital site, but after that it never built on any momentum it had and just kind of meandered it's way to the finish.

 

Not that they're listening, but I would strongly urge the studios to reconsider their plans for Allegiant Part 1 and Infinity Wars Part 1 and whatever other split movies they have coming up. Nobody want to watch just part of a movie. Give us a complete story.

[Black Hawk]

What time is it now in the US(EST)? 21:39?

[Wrath]

Yes, it was when you posted that.
