It's funny because every time early reviews come in people think a score will go up/stabilize even though 9 times out of 10 it goes down from the initial score.

but this time it will stabilize.

Am doubling down on 400+ dom 155*2.65=411

Eh, never intended to go to a Jurassic Park movie for its story or characters. I couldn't care less about JW's stupid teens or the romance between Pratt and that high heels running lady. They are just background noise for the awesome dinosaurs

This movie needed Jessica Chastain to be running through the forest with her high heels on again in order to be certified fresh but alas

Oh boy, are you going to hate Fallen Kingdom.

wow its rotten  fuck the critics

[Hatebox]

So this is getting the reviews JW deserved. Life finds a way.

[Macleod]

Kinda funny how early reaction is already mirroring the trajectory of The Lost World...even though JW is no Jurassic Park.  In fact, yes, it would be hard for this to be worse than JW, in my opinion, too.

 

I now fully expect JW3, like JP3, to be even worse-rated but ultimately championed as a 'savage improvement' by a tiny tiny section of its audience.

By hiring then firing Trevorrow, Katelyn K. Kennedy ruined any chances that episode IX or Fallen Kingdom will be good

That’s not simply pessimistic, if you ask @Brainbug, that’s a disastrous scenario lol. 

 

Yep, because the fall (especially) DOM would be kinda unprecedented. Like always with BO, its not impossible, but i dont see it happen. It would need extremely awful WOM among the GA to do that. And while the Film surely isnt made for critics, the GA could very well embrace it - just like the first JW. Well see .

52 on Metacrit with 19 reviews

We've seen so many "sure things" from established franchises tank in the last year that I really don't have a great idea how this will do. I think the 650M intake of JW gives it a huge cushion, and FK shouldn't drop more than 50% from that. Like I said before, sort of the reference I'm using is F7 > F8. A dropoff like that takes it to about 415M DOM, which is in range of my 375M prediction. But I don't know. The GA are tricky to pin down. I'll be very fascinated watching this movie's run.

I think it felt different than the first one. It's more story focused, but lacks big action and have little to no surprises. It lacks humor as well. Kinda in the middle, where the reviews are pointing in. It's not unwatchable, but I think it might have bad legs, because has little replay value

[a2k]

Have been trying to figure out one of the many bullish ways of getting FK to 450 DOM. Seems difficult but not impossible:

JW2 20.5 + 52.5 (2.5x) + 55.6 (+06%) + 43.4 (-22%) = 172.0 (8.4x previews) ... 2.62 gives 450+

JW1 18.5 + 63.5 (3.4x) + 69.6 (+10%) + 57.2 (-18%) = 208.8 (11.3x previews) ... 3.12 for 652.3
