Barnack Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 7 minutes ago, NCsoft said: but this is the first time that I'm feeling the disconnect being so evident I think that was Jurassic World opening higher than Ultron for me, the over the sea/visible part of the movie interest Iceberg is probably a rather small one ( I imagine the vast majority of people don't advertise what they want to see), correlated with reality but still a small percentage, specially outside the more popular film internet genre. I think one other aspect concerning BR, is how fast word of mouth can be now, outside the Thursday night preview, all that follow look like it can be influenced by the movie reception, it started by sunday, then saturday, now even the friday.

It's not so much stanning for The Star (now that I've also seen previews and they moved to JL's date, which is a killer), but having REALLY low expectations for Coco:)...which is probably my bitterness at Disney holding to the ridiculous Thanksgiving date for an obvious October movie...

Kinda reinforces the notion that when people aren't interested in the movies, they just won't go. It - premier movie... Kingsman, Ninjago, BR - direct sequel, spinoff, direct sequel... It's like we forgot what happened this summer to all non-premier movies that weren't supers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DealWithIt Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 36 minutes ago, YourMother said: I don't know why but I'm not excited for Thor and JL, which is weird because I'm a huge CBM fan. Two more comic book movies that are going to do well regardless of reviews. Like, I’ve been in heaven with all of the quality CBM movies we have gotten going back to the start of the Nolan Batman trilogy all the way through now, but yeah, it’s hard to get EXCITED about them anymore. Go see it, have a good time and that’s that. They never really stick with me afterwards anymore, certainly not the way I’m still thinking about BR 2049. Then you see these numbers for 2049 and it’s just disheartening. Thought provoking big budget movies are indeed a dying breed. Not even trying to go in on people who didn’t like 2049 or have no interest in seeing it. Just thoroughly disappointed that like Apes a few months ago, a movie is deemed “bleak and depressing” and it goes by the wayside and flops/disappoints at the box office. Can’t help but wonder if some of the blockbusters of the 70s through the early 90s ever even get made in this day and age. Probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being poor now - and that's not even the case anymore, in case you're aware our economy has been on the fast rise in the last few years - has zero to do with the bad decision making from a monarchy that happened in, what, the 1500s? Also, about our image in the world...... we won the European Championship, we won the Eurovision, we have hot waves of tourism every year, we're one of the very few European countries not ridden with extreme right wing and/or terrorism related controversies, we were just taken out of Moody's trash rating...... our image is actually doing better now than in years. We're not the ones who are in the brink of political and financial collapse and ridden with drug overlords, after all, are we? Our biggest problems - corruption and low classes still economically unbalanced - are not even at the top of your country's list Spoiler .................no offense mate, don't take it personally Edited October 7, 2017 by MCKillswitch123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
