Jonwo Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Sony must be seriously hoping BR2049 can do $180-200m OS as they are going to take a hit if it doesn’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJG Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Just now, Fullbuster said: I don't understand..BR2049 is hyped from everywhere but it's still a flop, there's some disconnect between critics/social networks and the real world.. This is what happens when you listen to the internet and not pay attention to the real world. Same thing happened with Power Rangers, they thought that just because some rowdy morons on twitter were talking being faux-nostalgic for Power Rangers that the brand had evolved into something that deserves a PG13 $100M blockbuster, when in reality it was still a corny kids show. Blade Runner is a cult film, nothing about it signaled that it needed a $150m sequel. The film is good but the problem here lies in the budget. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WOM is clearly bad What are you talking about? 89% on RT, 87% Audience Score, 83% PostTrak. This is not about bad WOM. It is about people in America not giving a shit about Blade Runner.

The Futurist Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 General audiences are obviously craving meditative & contemplative, 3h+, snail-paced, stylish sci-fi movies on the microship condition right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had flawless CGI, an amazing, exciting and uncliched story, and unprecedented characters. This was obviously the works of paid critics and the GA was too dumb to understand. How do u explain that almost all European critics gave it a good grade while US critics used random reasoning to give it a D- for example. or how do u explain the fact it grossed more in Europe.

I thought we defeated and banished the Warcraft fanboys from here after the film flopped for being trash. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for conspiracy theories, but almost all video game movies flop and have bad reviews. i don't think there's a ulterior motive here for warcraft's bombing in the us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 I guess if there's anything to be really disappointed about, it's that October is gonna be really weak now considering how much it was riding on Blade Runner being big. The next few weeks look bleak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

European critics tend to be more lenient for most movies in general and the fact that most movies make more OS. People just didn't like Warcraft and on top of that it wasn't really destined for big numbers, I don't see why Disney would take joy in it flopping.
