Big weekend bump unlikely Yeah it's not just that, Baumer seems to think in numbers and ignore everything else. Iron Man 3 was the first Marvel Studios after The Avengers and contrary to what the hardcores from flame wars shenanigans like to imply, loved by the critics AND public. It had excellent buzz and s film that appealed to everyone. It was bound to be huge. This isn't that, and I'd be sincerely surprised if BvS weekend is bigger than F7. But I made my case and I will wait til the weekend numbers to comment on the subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re-reading my post, I see I could have made it more obvious. I was curious to hear the opinions on God's Not Dead as well. Some religious young guy standing up to an atheist professor in college. Even ignoring the religious nonsense, from a film making perspective its terrible as well. Bland acting and some stock characters and stupid stereotypes. The lone Muslim character in the movie beats his child, according to the film the reason people are atheists is because they hate god (lol no). I've seen it once, and have no desire to see it again. If God's not dead, he would kill himself after watching this movie. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like watching 2 minutes of Fox News. Edited March 31, 2016 by lancelot123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 The crumbling continues. Also, Iron Man 3 was not loved by the public. At all. Legs were pretty bad. I love it, tho. And it worked really well with kids. That is why the weekends were so good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll do it for the lulz, unless they look down on frivolous clubs. Fun trivia: If BvS were to have the worst second-weekend drop ever (83.6%, beating Jane Got a Gun), it would make roughly $27.2 million. That's still more than GND2 is projected to make this weekend.

POTUS 2020 Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I think GND2 will underperform expectations. First one was a fluke. New cast and story after Easter and many Christians releases. May come in 4th. Boss will take bvs down. Sound like it's not good. Which means it will do well like DH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mistake stupid online flame wars between fanbases with films not being liked. It obviously was. You're right about connecting greatly with kids/teens though.

It had a mixed reception with a more adult crowd. That is why legs were kinda shitty compared to other Marvel movies and weekdays were low. Well liked movies? The Winter Soldier and GotG, for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancelot Gold Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 If GND2 retains it's $12K per theater sales as the OW of the first one, it will make 27.8 million with the 2318 theaters it's releasing at. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are universally praised blockbusters, they have similar Flixter grades to TFA and stuff like the TDK Trilogy. A 79% between public and critics? That's solid imho. That's a well liked film. Not every film will be liked as much as the ones you've mentioned. Edited March 31, 2016 by iJackSparrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
