Really hoped War would beat Dawn. Oh well. Will still make bank

Y'all are nuts for dissing The Shape of Water trailer. It looks stunning and unlike anything I've seen in my life.

That is depressing and Apes is a better movie than Spidey 

 

Thats like your opinion man.

War of the Apes looked like more of the same. The reason people are excited about comic book movies is very simple: the Marvel and DC universes are rich in stories and characters. That's also the reason why the Avatar sequels will kill at the box office, James Cameron wouldn't announce 4 sequels without having a rich universe that he will likely explore brilliantly.

 

Cameron planned four sequels because he's planning the biggest studio robbery of all time. He's gonna ask for 2 billion up front, tell Fox he only needs a month to finish and when the studio execs finally watch the final cut, old sly Cameron will troll them with an old episode of the Smurfs. 

 

By then Cameron will be on a private island in Dubai laughing his ass off.

I think it's in theaters only.

[aabattery]

I'm so excited for the Avatar sequels. I've pulled a complete 180 on them this year. Went from "eh whatever" to @IronJimbo-lite. 

 

Give it to me, Cameron.

I thought DVD rips didnt affect BO

 

 

Oh, it definitely affects BO.

 

Expendables 3 is probably one of the most famous examples. A perfect dvd rip made its way online 2 or 3 weeks before the movie's release.

I guess it's time for me to concede that Homecoming won't be able to reach $60m anymore. Anyways, that's still a good number. 

 

Come on, it's aint over till the fat lady sings, it's only 7pm on the west coast. ... this is not you

War For The Planet of the Apes was really solid.  It improves on Dawn and makes the best movie of the series.

 

I don't think legs will be spectacular or anything though, it's a slower burn and puts the spectacle on the sideline (which I liked about it).

Ah yes.  The light is being shown to more and more people .

 

(the light, of course, meaning the second best blockbuster of the 2010s)

I don't know if I'd go back for, it's one of the better blockbusters that's for sure.

 

I may personally prefer Logan or Wonder Woman, but this was the better film of the three.

What's number one? Inception? (Which I don't feel was anywhere close to the best film of the decade. Sorry Nolan fans)

Also didn't help that wom from #2 was only luke-warm and the film didn't look like it added much, which the leak confirmed.

I thought it was better than Logan, which is really fucking hard to do for me.  But it had an even bigger emotional impact on me than that, which was surprising.  Logan already has enough dramatic weight to make grown men cry.

Yep.  Also one of my favorite movies of all time.

 

Matt Reeves' War for the Planet of the Apes (2017) is a very close second and it's hard to imagine any movie (until December at the earliest) being better than this.  It was truly fantastic.

This would mean more if you weren't 17.

Bodes really well for The Batman IMO.

 

If only Josh Brolin was playing Batman, The Batman could've been one of the best films of all time.

 

I feel like he would've been another RDJ or Christopher Reeve.

[a2k]

Hoping Apes can do 21.

5 + 16 + 17 + 13 = 51

 

WAR OD = 4.0-4.2x the previews

DAWN OD = 6.7x the previews

 

 

So already a lot more front-loading than DAWN.

DAWN did 2.87x final multi. I don't think WAR can do more than 2.7-2.8x.

 

With a 50-54 ow, 2.7-2.8x gives 135-151 dom.

 

Disappointing.
