Texas Roadhouse, Outback Steakhouse, and Longhorn Steakhouse have really good steak.

 

I think you should aim your sights higher for a true quality steak.

Too many other Christian movies over the next 5 weeks. Young Messiah, Miracles from Heaven and Gods not dead 2. Getting ahead of competition by releasing early.

I guess they wanted to be away from the influx of other Christian-themed movies (The Young Messiah, Miracles from Heaven, and- gulp- God's Not Dead 2) opening around that time.

Don't forget about Passion 2: Electric Bugaloo.....the break dancing version of the Crucifixion story

Oh and btw....TDKR still sucks.

 

Compared to BB, TDK I happen to agree, it sucks. It's pretty obvious the story wasn't nearly as good as the previous installments.

I'd watch that.

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.

 

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

where did I say anything about pleasing everyone? I said it should be able to please all kinds of people.

Baumer, I didn't mention Deadpool in my post, I wasn't referring to Deadpool and I didn't even post about Deadpool in days.

So, WTF you are talking about? I was only questioning grey ghost's notion that non-fan opinions are somehow invalid because they are not into the character, which is realllllllly close to "they just don't get it" argument.

Have you not been ripping Deadpool in previous posts?  Or am I thinking of someone else, @Goffe

Seems like a terrible drop from last weekend for deadpool. Not to say it's run is bad or anything, bc its been amazing!!

[#ED]

So I said Deadpool sucks, the immediate general response is, "Well TDKR sucked"...

 

Great job fellas. Remind me to bump the TDKR review thread in a few weeks.

I don't get it.  How is it terrible drop?  The actual Friday number is 33 million.  Of course there was a rush factor to it.  That's what outstanding marketing does to your film, gets people wanting to see it OW.

My last post about Deadpool was like 3 days ago and that was because you tagged me.

2-3 weeks before might have been better.  Would've had a better chance to get a decent "Passion" type bump.

This site's infatuation with Nolan mildly creeps me out from time to time. I can't imagine what his reaction would be if he ever came to visit this site. He'd probably laugh and say, "all of you need to get a job." lol.

It's a classic typical BOF response.

What's wrong with saying TDKR sucked when @WrathOfHan made the comparison a few pages back? It's just an opinion man that some of us share. We know plenty of people disagree.
