Since I'm not going back into the Dory thread (too much MK-Ultra stuff in there)....I'll just say it here:

Let's just let him be. I don't think we need to continue this flame war.

The problem is, I don't know that Pets is going to be very strong at the BO.

Go Purge!!  Funny enough, with all the suck that was out this Summer, my Purge fandom has only grown.  One of the few movies over June/July I was looking forward to. 

[DAJK]

I've sort of noticed that out of the entirety of June, there were only 2 REALLY good movies that I really liked (Dory and Conjuring). 4that were "okay/decent" (Turtles, Central, Me Before You, Shallows) 2 that were "meh" (Warcraft and Jones) and 2 that were BAD (ID4 and NYSM2). Didn't see Popstar.

 

Not a great month tbh.

What boggles my mind is that The Purge movies don't even have great reviews from critics or users. It's weird that this is the third film to consistently do well. Usually a franchise with the ratings that The Purge has would have fallen flat on its face.

 

 

I think most fans who would watch a movie that doesn't give a crap about life also don't give a crap about ratings, lol.

Violence is so in today.

I think that's a very good hold for Dory? Not sure how this weekend's supposed to play out

[kayumanggi]

Tracking got everything wrong. Those are better numbers for the openers, but yes (excluding THE PURGE: ELECTION YEAR) they're not enough to make money for the studios.

May was terrible.

A- Cinemascore for Tarzan

Pets is going to open to at least 75.

The Purge has done a very good job of leveraging its premise into something that is fresh from a concept and marketing standpoint. The first one sold a killer (hehe) concept but failed on the execution. The second promised to show people what they wanted to see from the original movie and made it clear from the marketing. And the third one has taken advantage of the craziest election ever for a unique twist on the Purge concept. The Purge concept will eventually become stale, but for now each has been a success in marketing and differentiating itself from the previous film in the series.

[Cmasterclay]

Huh......I know that's still terrible relative to budget, but that seems alot better than I was expecting for Tarzan.
