Bad for apes 3. Fox must be mightily pissed with how AC and Apes 3 fared this summer.

 

Logan is their shining jewel so far this year.

 

I don't think Kingsman 2 will help matters either.

We are going to have a new number one summer movie this weekend.

 

SM:H's insane word of mouth will make it increase 600 % this weekend and leapfrog past WW as the summer's # 1 smash!

Been saying for the past couple of months that Kingsman 2 will under perform big time even if it is better than original.

Here's my proposed new BO Law

 

The Panda's Law of False Certainty

If someone claims absolute certainty (0% or 100% chance) for an unknown, future BO event, then the chance of the opposite happening increases tenfold.

new Spider man could be like Harry Potter and Twilight, heavily target at young adult and ended up having a bad legs despite good reviews

A whole new generation will grow up with Tom Holland's take on Spider-Man. I think it's the wisest move the MCU could ever do with the character, if they are able to keep the quality, Holland could easily match RDJ 's Tony Stark appearances in Marvel films. Holland is getting set up to be an important part of the MCU, and I think that the future of the franchise is finally bright.

 

Awesome Tuesday bump.

To further this point, if you wouldn't literally bet your life on something happening then it's not 0% or 100% certain.  I get irritated when people throw around that terminology, as the thing I'm near certain about is there's no such thing as absolute certainty in reality.

I am proposing the Cameron Law.

If Cameron directs a film, its gonna smash people's asses. If he doesn't, you can never be sure...

All hail my unprecedented intelligence.

Well, yes. There are truly unrealistic numbers though. Like if Tele's club was Wonder Woman over Force Awakens DOM instead of Wonder Wonder over Spider-man DOM.

Is that unrealistic?  Yes.  Is it impossible, no.  You could say it's next to impossible that it won't gross over TFA DOM.  But maybe there's unprecedented hyper inflation of the US $ within the next few days which leads to WW overtaking TFA (just not in real numbers), that'd be an oddly possible scenario, I just wouldn't bank on it.

 

Hell, even past events can't be known for certain due to interpretation and the remote possibility time travel is a thing and that it (somehow) functions linearly and not in a parallel universe kind of function.

Bias can never win against data. Twomisfits is trying to convince others that shm could compete with WW third w/e if it was not fathers day. Even though wondy's fourth w/e will be higher than shm third w/e.

 

No, I called WW beating GOTG 2 this summer, EVEN AFTER her opening weekend...I started the WW bandwagon after her opening, so I'm anything but biased against her:)...heck, I called her amazing Father's Day weekend and won a Casino bet on it (ala my WW 3rd weekend beats GOTG 2 3rd weekend:)...

 

What I'm saying is that timing and circumstances help movies greatly...so comparing a Father's Day weekend hold against bad movies to a non Father's Day weekend hold against good movies is unfair at the get go, no matter how you feel about the movies... 

 

[Lordmandeep]

The goal is 503 million domestic To top the year so I think Sw8 will pass that easily.

ant man will not do avengers opening even you change their release date. same for Wondy and spiderman. As I said wondy's fourth w/e will beat spidey's third w/e. You can say release date, competition and all, give spiderman father's day and yet it will not do $40m this w/e. This is not about how I feel about movies, this is about a stupid comment you made.
