All the reactions that mention Timothee

[Morieris]

happy for positive receptions, lol @ this joke.

[AMC Theaters Enjoyer]

Knock on wood if the reviews turn out bad (the reactions seem legit positive though and not just “it’s fun” positive), but my expectations on how this film will do just went up. There also seems to some serious hype for the film overseas too. I think north of 500M worldwide is in play here if it delivers with audiences.

 

Also good on Chalamet for having this and Dune 2 back to back. Bro’s profile is about to rise higher than it already was. WB should try to lock him in for projects post-Bob Dylan while they can.

If Disney wants to save their box office, they should make him a Disney Prince like they should have fucking done already! I'm still so bitter this hasn't happened!

If you dig deep enough, it have quite a big amount of mixed tweets, especially from more credible writers. 
 

Still, doesn’t look bad to me. It’s getting Mary Poppins Returns reception vibes, which means probably 65-ish on MC and +75% on RT 

 

Which is probably more than enough for this type of movie, based on what I read it deliver exactly what families would like to watch on holidays. It can be big even if reviews ended up being just decent instead of raves.

Battlefield Earth would get positive social embargo reactions in this day and age. Come on. I'll wait for reviews.

Starting to feel more positive about my 300M club again. I trust in Paul King! Let's hope it translates into good reviews and then good WOM.

Timothee is getting raves. That's all I care about. The rest of the movie can suck ass, but if the people love Timothee....everything's good with the world.

Like guys...I can't. I just can't. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[ChipDerby]

Timothee best actor

[keysersoze123]

I was amazed by the "mixed" reactions expected by some folks like Volde and Sneider. Thankfully king does not disappoint. Reviews also will be out next week. I am optimistic about this movie's BO prospects. Its going to dominate the holidays for sure. 

[Dephira]

I kinda had high hopes for this when I saw the trailer. It looked really good and like a crowd pleaser to me

If this can get something like 85% on RT, it would destroy everything in its path this Christmas.

[MovieMan89]

I put no stock in social reaction anymore, but that sounds great. If audience reception is on par with that, my 400 talk for months is probably happening. There’s just nothing else this holiday to stop it if this is loved. 

[MovieMan89]

Also ngl, I deserve some kind of box office medal for talking about 500+ for Barbie and Mario and 400 for Wonka months and months before any tracking or anything if all 3 end up reality lol. 

[Bob Train]

There hasn't been a GA appealing movie to get over 80% on RT and A-range cinemascore since Barbenheimer. Only thing to come close is TMNT which was handicapped by being a reboot and animation penalty. 

 

If Wonka can get both, it will put up massive numbers and be a Jumanji-esque breakout.

Most of the tweets that have gripes seem to be about very minute details, so I’m guessing it’s more nitpicky than large problems that they’ve identified 

[wildphantom]

If Erlich says it’s good then we have a winner here folks.  I was hopeful after King’s Paddington miracles, and now I’m hyped to see this. 
 

Christmas is saved. Sounds like a proper Disney movie that Disney will be crying they haven’t made.
