Or none, depending on which statistic you use.

[lupinw45]

WW gross without China is a great run.

[lupinw45]

And most people didn't think it would do more than 550.

I was hoping it wouldn't. But now that it has gone far beyond that and become another Transformers/Twilight franchise.

I wonder if you have ever read the name of this site.

If you haven't noticed by now, I don't respect movies where the only positive note one can have about them is that they made money. I don't care what the site is called.

But this is a site primarily for discussing box office?

And? Discussing the box office doesn't mean I have to respect movies for having a great box office run and nothing else. Are you guys really having that much difficulty wrapping your head around that?

New vid from Every Frame a Painting analyzing the funtional but unmemorable music in Marvel films.

 

 

 

There's an interesting follow-up by Dan Golding, which goes more into detail about temp-tracking history, and specifically Hans Zimmer influence on film scoring as a whole. While Zimmer being the first guy to incorporate synth is very wrong, it's still an interesting video nonetheless.

Did the movie touch in you inappropriately? Kill your family? Why such hostility? It's a movie that is honestly just ok at best with a nice run after it. You can turn down fanboyism, it's okay that SS is doing well, it's not the end of the world, and it doesn't mean the MCU isn't going to exist tomorrow.

 

You don't have to respect anything to give it credit. Credit is just acknowledgement it did something. It's okay, the world isn't ending because a movie you didn't like made money.

[DMan7]

People need to watch this video by James Gunn.

 

[Dementeleus]

Something to keep in mind next time you see some headline about some creative person saying DC is better than Marvel or vice versa -- a lot of the time headlines (and even the thrust of the article) is invented purely for page-clicks.

Why is it that many of you here are so quick to patronize whenever you read something you don't like? "Did the movie touch you inappropriately?" Really, did you think that was clever?

 

Anyway, the hostility very simply comes from that this is the 3rd straight movie that the DCEU has released that has been very mediocre. I want them to do better. But they're not going to be any better if their movies keep making money just like the Transformers. Hey, if you all are happy with SS and DCEU in general, more power to you but I'm not. Nothing more to it than that.

Clever enough. I'm just saying you're over reacting. You are acting like the movie has done something terrible to you personally. Besides that taste is incredibly subjective, you aren't even acting like you want them to improve, you're acting more like you're interested in tearing them down.

 

But you know, stones, glass houses, boring analogies. Nothing I'm saying you'll actually take the time to think about, instead you'll either ignore me, or come back with something that you will think is clever, all the while making assumptions to my beliefs.

Wow, what a mess they've made of that interview, like, seriously, what the hell. They just straight up lied in that article, honestly a bit disgusted by that.

I'm tearing them down because they don't seem to be interested in improving let alone accomplishing the task. The more money SS for instance makes, the more I see people wanting to cover up how panned it was by the audience as well as the critics. They shouldn't have to. Their movies are getting worse, not better. Like Gunn, I want all the movies to be good. The DCEU is going the way of the Transformers and yes, that offends me as a fan and as a movie watcher. I'm sorry you can't understand my hostility but I won't apologize for being hostile.
