You're shitting me right? The dude's ranked 4th or 5th in pessimistic users on this movie.

I know, right?

 

But his review seems pretty ok/positive to me. He seems to have enjoyed it. 

[Blankments]

I would be hyperbolic-ally bashing on BvS, but then again, I saw Fantastic Four, and I can't honestly say it was worse than that film.

Under 170 is weak. End of story

 

Good thing it won't finish with under 170.

[DMan7]

Glad I stuck with my 160M OW / 384M DOM prediction.

[mredman]

i am baffled by some here that thinks not doing Avengers numbers is bad. What are they then expecting for JL movies 3 Billion

redfirebird's hedging on the positive side too.

 

I acknowledge it's a mess, but I enjoyed Batman/Wonder Woman and the third act as a whole to the point it's worthy of a thumbs up. The critics piling on like they did is a bit over the top, but I can definitely understand where they are coming from.

Empire 25 has added about 3-4 showings since I checked this morning. Always a good sign.

This thread is really close to making the actual BvS thread look good.

Time for viewing #2. See you guys on the other side.

@Blankie Cochran You are on the same boat as Ethan and iJack.

 

I strongly suggest a re-watch

 

I'm not paying for that.  I'll probably check out the director's cut on DVD, but the movie in theaters? Definitely not.

I liked the LEGO Batman teaser.

 

And where the hell is this "Numbers hated LEGO Movie" nonsense coming from?

Should've added a jab in there more. I know you and Tele didn't hate the LEGO Movie, but I remember my faux-meltdown over your 2014 list and Tele teasing me about LEGO for a solid six months, and well, there you go.

 

Still, I'd be surprised if you two like it more than BvS, when it's pretty fairly locked for me at this point. Although I suppose Suicide Squad could still take my top Batman movie of the calendar year spot.

He should watch the first three seasons of BTAS.

 

Then when he sees that MOTP opening credits and music it will be a religious experience.

 

Or maybe that's just me. 

 

Same, the opening credits for MOTP always got me pumped for the very reason that I was already familiar with the theme, and seeing it fully movie orchestrated was beyond epic.

I have to watch it again in RPX tomorrow.

 

I REALLY, REALLY wanted to watch it in 4DX though.

For the first 2/3rds, I was getting ready to give this thing a big thumbs down. But the 3rd act was great. I need to see it again with a better audience though. Was very distracted for a large chunk of the movie by fidgeting child next to me and adults constantly texting right around me.

IJack doesn't count. We don't even know if he actually watched the movie

Of course I watched. Now this is just insulting. I'll never watch that rotten thing again, but I even reviewed on the spoilers thread.

[Blankments]

Not gonna go into a rant, but I was alright with the first and second act (although they had issues), but the third act was just atrocious IMO. One of the worst third acts I can remember seeing in any blockbusters.

Lmao, this killed me. Even Ethan was to distance himself from iJack

Well that sucks. Thankfully my wife is one of those people who goes to find an usher to kick people out. 

 

I just pretend I don't know that lady who's snitching. 

[CJohn]

My body is in strong need of another view. Might go tomorrow in 2D in a theater close to my home.

I have the Regal unlimited ticket (looks really cool and is steel actually), will watch it in literally every format available over the next few weeks. Best purchase ever
