I have zero interest in STRANGE, but generally I agree.

 

Odd because we all thought you'd be extremely interested in the latest Marvel motion picture

WOM is my cerebro.

And please keep Marvel out of this. 

I will if you will keep out your Marvelboyish DC films analysis

I feel like this weekend is the perfect weekend to take a road trip and stay out of this thread judging by the content so far.

I don't agree -- I think there are movies that are hugely frontloaded due to their hardcore fanbase. (DH2, for one). Now, SS is obviously pretty mixed in terms of WOM, but I wouldn't say it's absolutely toxic.

 

Tele, you still agree though that in general a movie that legs it out is way more productive for growing the base and building demand for a franchise right? That's why I used POTC 1, if you want your CBM examples the two easiest are BB & IM1 (I guess we can throw TA in there too & what it did for phase 2).

warren beatty bringing out the ghosts of dabney coleman and paul sorvino for this new picture too.

We still don't have any concrete number for SS and yet people are discussing it to no end lol.

Oh c'mon like we really need an official number to know it's bad. Even if it goes 50m+, that's still an awful drop so let's not pretend like we don't know it's not holding well. 

 

A 50M+ 2nd weekend haul would equate to around a 60% drop, which is standard fair for a CBM. You're being pessimestic.

Wait wait wait we have not one but TWO Peter Berg/Marky Mark collabs coming out in the next few months? Why

Of course, we all know you're strictly a DC stan.

You have more interest in FANTASTIC BEASTS than STRANGE?

There is no WHY. Only WHEN.

So, SS is having the same legs as BvS isn't it?

Actually that's exactly what a toxic WOM is lol @UrosepsisFace. That's basically saying that all $300m grossers are the same. Let's compare what happened with POTC 1 & MOS.

 

Are we saying MOS was killed by toxic WOM? Enough so that it made more money in home-video sales that year than Iron Man 3? Enough so to open a 166m for its sequel? Every audience aggregate gave it a good score? In this era of Hollywood, unfortunately, just about every single studio is DESPERATE for such toxic WOM, and half of the Big 6 doesn't even have a shot at any movie making such bad legs in the entirety of their tentpole's runs. I guess if we exist in a vacuum that makes a lot of sense, because then the toxic WOM won't reach any ears...

I've been asking why about Marky Mark for years and have never received a valid explanation.
