I still can't stop grinning over seeing dark blue WB studio logos (Nolan ), on top of Will Arnett saying "DC...the house that Batman built." The former is just one of those little touches that an audience probably isn't gonna think about.

 

One of a handful of moments where it was only the adults in a nearly sold out theater were laughing lol.

Youre being smart. 

 

I mean films like Xxx3, Warcraft etc making big money there. 

I dunno. I heard that the Scream movies made more than $.05 ww, which might mean the whole world has bad taste.

Nice try.

You want to compare a cultural phenomenon and iconic movie like Scream to xXx: The Return of Xander Cage and Warcraft?

TBH, I don't really care about any of these movies.

 

But I do think that Scream has dropped in popularity quite rapidly since the last movie was released.

Scream 4's BOM weekend thread was legendary. The meltdowns were for the ages.

[CasualName99]

Both BVS and SS, each with an RT of 27% more or less,  grossed over 300m domestically, yet BVS grossed less than 100m in China. So I would say China has the best taste in the world.

And Pets over Zootopia? Can't imagine that.

CJohn what are your thoughts on Keanu and The Stone Age saving Lionsgate?

[WrathOfHan]

Updated RT audience scores:

 

John Wick: 93%

Batman: 89%

Fifty Shades: 67%

 

John Wick hasn't changed since Friday

I still wanna see how that plan of 6 or 7 Power Rangers sequels is gonna work out for them.

So LB went up from $52M OW to a $54M OW, which it went from no chance of $200M to a 5% chance.

My faith is restored!

The highest grossing Pixar movie was Dory at $40M, so....

So what has that got to do with China having bad taste? 

 

You shouldn't have chimed in if you didn't have a point to make.

Heartbreaking. I remember RS tracking came in at $27m when everyone was expecting at least $30m, then it did $19m. 

[Krissykins]

Lego Batman $51m

Fifty Shades Darker $46m

John Wick 2 $28.5m

Most were predicting 40M+ OWs.

It'll likely have a $53M-$54M with a $22.5M Saturday.

[Jake Gittes]

KFP3, Lego and SpongeBob all dropped 30-33% on Sunday so if LB follows it gets 53m give or take a couple hundred thousand. FSD looks set for 45-47, Wick should go over 29.

I also saw Fifty Shades Darker yesterday and it's soooooo bad. The thought of there being another one gives me a hernia.
