So people are just pretending this wasn't said or what? This was in response to someone asking for Saturday estimates. First post on page 116.

The trailers don't even mention or show enchantress, and now suddenly she's being featured in the commercials. Lol!

 

Suicide Squad is gonna be one of those movies that prove that people who assemble trailers have gotten so good at their job that they can now absolutely sell anything. Not trying to be mean to SS, but the trailers did a hell of a job to power this opening.

So great marketing is enough to give you a great opening day, but if the movie is shit, word travels very fast nowadays.

I doubt SS gonna drop that hard
BvS with a B Cinemascore dropped 38% if I remember correctly, so with B+ it can't be WoM worse than BvS.

Excel has inside sources like I have 10 million dollars.

Sure.

Honestly we need BKB to come in and give us a parking lot update to confirm this collapse of not.

Considering what they left out of the trailers, even the marketing team probably knew that they had a stinker on their hands.

SS is already dropping harder than BvS in France, Portugal, Brazil, Russia and South Korea.

Lol, this is going to have BvS legs after all.

 

That's what I was basing my calculations on when I made what looked-to-be ill-fated Casino bets.

 

Thing is, even with good WOM, this should have been thought of as being frontloaded due to DC fans rushing out to see it.  This is the third film in the new DC cinematic universe after all.  The mixed WOM is just showing that this might indeed play out like BvS instead of something like CW.

Excel has zero insider information. I feel bad that you fell for that post.

They do:
 

Spoiler

 

 

 

They just completely misrepresent her role (I assumed this whole time was she part of the Suicide Squad). lmao.

On the bright side, we may have our first $200-299M film of 2016.

 

With these initial drops I can hardly see it getting to $300M, so I guess that's almost guaranteed at this point.

Yeah, but it also opened higher than BvS

I am like 75% sure BvS increase here from his OD (Thursday) to Friday and Saturday was around the same as Friday (Sunday was death because all movies die on Easter Sunday). 

[DealWithIt]

I see. Carry on with the doom and gloom.

 

unless he's actually right in the end

SS was brought to life by social media, now its gonna die by social media.
