Good to know. I'll remember that come the weekend of November 4th. Those who spewed shit were called out on it. However creating something that hasn't happened in a thread is just as immature as someone who is spewing shit. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know. I'll remember that come the weekend of November 4th. I haven't seen ANYONE around here doing that. ANYONE. Not even BKB from all people. Fighting imaginary enemies make you people look insane. And not in a cute Suicide Squad like insane. Just sad insane, just like @Rey's extra. It's doing GREAT, and I'm a supporter of the film. Some people hate it and it's fine. That doesn't mean that they are 'TEH ENEMY SAYING THE WOM IS TOXIC', when no one is saying that. The WOM isn't toxic. Be the cool kind of weird, please.

Now it's $300M? lol.. hard to admit WB/DC has a winner I guess. Well once the film opened to $133.6M, $200M and $250M were wiped off the table so the next big target is $300M. Its not goal post moving when the OW of a film is ginormous. The same things were done when Deadpool opened up. Some of you are so hell bent on making this a DC vs Marvel thing, when its simply not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Napoleon Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 God Snyder has a ton of fans. It's ok to dislike Him, but don't pretend the whole World agrees with you. And also, if you hate Him, don't watch His movies. Nobody is forcing you. This kind of obsession isn't healthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A minimum 2.0 multi was expected. But, I'm still not saying even $300M+ DOM is a lock until the we see how it holds this coming weekend. Also, anyone claiming this wasn't a winner in terms of at least breaking even or making good mint for WB is full of shit. BUT, those that believe it could've been MUCH bigger, just like BvS, if it wasn't so divisive are spot on. BatSupes and SS had a hell of a lot of novelty going for them, great marketing campaigns are essentially non-sequels... That usually signifies a better a multi.

And they don't seem to understand how incredibly childish they look when doing it that it's just utterly sad. Stop sucking the joy out of things. Suicide Squad is a blast and same goes for its box office run so far. Have fun and grab a cookie, maybe a cup of coffee too. You hate the film and it's been civil, I love the film and I'm being civil, stop creating NON-EXISTENT animosity, folks. Please @Baumer loves Dory, @CJohn and mods, say something.

I'm being cautious about crossing $300m, but even getting close to that would be a win imho. The film has successfully made the GA care about some unknown DC characters and I feel that I like them more than anything the DCEU did so far. This film is a win in my book, if it gets a 2.2+ multiplier, I'd be already VERY happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 MODERATION: Take your Marvel vs DC bullshit to another place. This is a thread to discuss the daily numbers and sure, if you want to compare to Marvel movies you can, but don't use that as an excuse to rag on DC movies (the opposite also applies; everyone can rag on Fantastic Four 2015 tho, fuck that movie). The ban hammer was already dropped today. Don't make it drop again. Don't poison the well. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few people are actually saying WOM is toxic. But anyway, it is impossible to prove that right now. It is just nonsense created by the anti-DC members. Everyone needs to chill for a bit and at least wait for today's number. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Ive already admitted I engaged in that bad WOM debacle that occurred because of its Friday to Saturday drop but I'm not letting that blind me from its other drops. Its having good drops. Lets see how it goes the rest of its run. Our lives don't depend on how this film performs one way or the other but my god some folks are acting like it does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the WOM is toxic at all, and I've read this whole thread and didn't find anyone saying that at all on this thread or the one that I created for Monday's. I think YOU think it's toxic and you want comic book movies to die, but you're not having it, Portugal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brainiac5 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 (edited) @iJackSparrow When you realize SS is running near day to day with Gotg with a 40+mil lead then you'll see where I'm coming from. Now when it drops below by only a 1mil or 2mil day to day then your conversation is valid.Even then SS still has a 40+mil gap to compensate.

The bolded part, it's EXACTLY what I'm saying. People would disagree a lot less often around here if they actually at least READ what others saying, not just went on defensive mode against people saying the EXACT SAME THING they are saying.
