What? Steak is good. It depends where you get it too like a grocery store like Jay C's or Kroger they have good steak. Texas Roadhouse, Outback Steakhouse, and Longhorn Steakhouse have really good steak. While a grocery store like Marsh and a restaurant like Lone Star are just eh. 

 

*shrug* I've had good steaks, but it's rarely been a food I've had a particularly craving for.

 

In fact, even the best steaks I've had haven't compared to the awesomeness that is spam musubi.

Is anyone actually thinking Deadpool wont increase more than 50% tomorrow? Its locked to do so.

I think it'll be something like 40-45%. Hard to tell since it's not like other superhero juggernauts with its R rating and this is only its second weekend.

[POTUS 2020]

God and Satan are neck and neck. Risen will have a big Sunday hold and win this one.

I remember Passion got taken out by Dawn of the dead  after a few weekends but it it came back to #1 easter weekend and beat out Hellboy.

What a competition: one was a zombie movie, the other was directed by Zack Snyder.

Deadpool is the perfect Deadpool movie.

 

But if you don't like Deadpool's irreverent and r-rated looney tunes humor, it won't matter how perfect the depiction of Deadpool is. 

 

It's like an NPR fan not enjoying Howard Stern. It's not that it's poor quality, it's that the the NPR fan isn't the target audience.

DC announced a Harley Quinn/Suicide Squad comic for release this summer yesterday. And a paperback of all of Batman and Supermans famous fights was released last month. Movies dictate comics now.

 

What sells sells.

The numbers for Deadpool throughout the week have been outstanding

A normal drop would be about 55-60%, especially coming off an inflated Sunday.

I guess if you think it will perform like 300, then it will go up by less than 30% but if it performs like American Sniper, it will go up 55-60%.

To be fair, American Sniper probably had a much stronger audience in the senior demographic (aka the Tele crowd) that would show up on a free Saturday or Sunday afternoon than something like Deadpool does.

Oh and btw....TDKR still sucks.

Some people use the same logic for animated movies. 

 

Kids liked it, so it must be good, right? wrong.

 

A good movie would please people from different demographics, not just the target audience.

Guys, Deadpool had a jump of 23% last saturday, I guess this tells you all you need to know about the saturday potential.

Didnt you re-think this? Yeah. There's no going back.

I should have saw The Witch. Deadpool was a complete waste of time. 

[RichWS]

Just got out of The Witch. Has some nice moments, but I'm fairly mixed about it. I do know it's gonna drop like a rock. The GA is not gonna dig it.

That's ridiculous.  No film is going to please everyone.  There are people who don't like Pixar films and Guardians of the Galaxy.

You and Futurist, doing your best to feebly hold on to some ridiculous thread of hope that somehow this film won't do well....I think you're a little late.

That's like saying Guns and Roses' Appetite for Destruction isn"t a good album because church ladies don't like it.

Second time I've posted something related to the God Warrior in this thread. How fitting on the weekend a Jesus and a Satanic movie both open.

Shouldn't have risen came out closer to Easter.
