Ozymandias Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 The theatrical release of Kingdom of Heaven was just linear and dull so it wasn't very surprising that the 45 minute extended cut made it much better. BvS is a clusterfuck thats all over the place so I don't really see how an extended cut could fix it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

department store basement Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 I haven't seen the extended cut of Almost Famous but I've heard it's much better than the original. From huge fans of the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"It's killing its competition, but it's still a HUGE disappointment!" MJ2 did have a disappointing run though. Luckily for HG, it was the final entry in the franchise rather than the big event that was supposed to open up a whole cinematic universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Moderation: Jesus, guys, you'd think this was grade school, with all the mocking of other posters going on. How about sticking to the numbers here? This thread -- and these forums -- are open to everyone, whether they hated BVS or loved it. Embrace the diversity. The numbers are what the numbers are: large in almost every way, yet nonetheless disappointing for what was expected to be one of WB's truly giant movies. Instead, it has to settle for being merely big. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weve already got two others that gone over 700m this year alone. One of which will pass 800m really soon. Another which was based on a C list CB character in a hard R action comedy with a 60m budget.

I first got into obsessing over box office figures in 2005, and $700 million was pretty damn big back then.

Expectations before the movie were/are a real thing lol. Sure, in the context of our expectations, both before the OW and after. And of course BVS is having a disappointing BO run, much like TASM, actually. But in terms of just the sheer numbers, 800m is still a lot of money. (And 50m for a second weekend is a lot of money too... it's just not enough when you're expected to be an absolutely huge tentpole). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
