I don't understand you. At least we share the love for JLaw and MoS, I guess. 

 

You forgot our common love for D porn and admiration for Roland Emmerich, Zack Snyder and Micael Bay, the D Porn kings.

 

Maybe I ll come around on BvS, who knows.

 

There s still stuff I enjoyed in it but I dunno, It didn't work for me.

So Avenger did 18 million in previews and if BvS does 18 mill itll be a disaster?

BvS also started playing at 6PM and the tracking has indicated above Ultron numbers so I would say yes. Not because it's actually a disaster but because it's $10M under what most expected.

Emmerich will unite us again this Summer

Bay is a above those silly space movies

 

Lol, he can barely make a decent Transformers movie and you think he's too good for Star Wars? Lmao.

 

It would be the prequels all over again except he'd add poop jokes and American flags.

Yes, I think it's a fair assumption. The Avengers isn't really good comparison like many have said here in the past. It was released four years ago with a very different landscape. I'm sticking with my original prediction of $21m, and I actually think that's the low end, it could do more.

Yes, way more frontloaded.

But THE RT RATING CHANGES EVERYTHING!!!

Not the RT rating. Four years and a completely different landscape in the other hand does. @Telemachos himself said this some weeks ago. In the light of the negative buzz / reviews, it might be a win though. Still expecting higher than that.

I disagree with this statement.

Everybody thought doing a modern Transformers movie was a bad idea.

Bay made the Transformers cool I am sorry, ask the kids of today, they d tell you.

D porn always brings in the money.

San Andreas had THE ROCK. ID2 will underperform but it will still make big cash for FOX.

Even with Twitter and various social media sites affecting the speed at which WOM travels, I think this is essentially bulletproof for OW.  Nothing will stop people from having interest in this the first three days, it's just that big of a draw with that much scope in terms of fanbase (ranging from fanboy to causal).  I think 160 is the floor with somewhere around 190 being the ceiling. 

 

I think the real fallout (if it really is a terrible film) will obviously be in the multiplier and the way the rest of the DC universe is perceived from here on out, and whether the general public starts seeing it as a cheap version of whatever Marvel's releasing.  Any who should be a fun weekend.  I'm catching it tomorrow and hoping I don't hate it.

[Dementeleus]

Yeah, under 25m in previews wouldn't be good for BVS. 

[somebody85]

Predicting that the reactions out of the gate will be "not as bad as the reviews are saying. pretty good! to awesome!" 

I don't think you'll get a better feel on how the GA will feel about this until tomorrow night or Saturday.
