Just saw #Venom and wow people started walking out after the first hour. It really was that BAD. I would cancel my preordered tickets if I were you.

Extremely disappointed with the let down that #Venom was 😣 One of the films I was most excited for turned out to be the worst film. Hate to say that considering I am the biggest Venom fan… Looks like i’ll be taking my family to #AStarIsBorninstead

#Venom was only the best superhero movie I’ve seen in along while. It’s refreshing to see a superhero film that wasn’t bogged down by years of movies and characters. Def a worth see. Sony really gave it their all.

Pretty sure these are also fake. Gaga fans and the Venom fan who admitted he hadn’t seen the movie.

These early blogger media reviews are significantly worse than ASM2 and DOFP and even JL - movies that ended in the 40s to 50s on RT

DOFP? That movie was well received.

A good example of why a B.S. Detector is a vital piece of equipment  when crusing the internet.

TRhat final comment by a Venom fan represents all I dislike about what interent fandom has become.

Guys, I'm starting to think this movie might not be very good. 😮

When the film's fervent supporters start talking like  40% rating on RT is some great triumph, you know a film is in trouble.

[dudalb]

And the point remains; Venom had to be really good and a big hit for it to do what Sony expected it to do:launch their Spideyverse into orbit.

Even if Venom avoids being a total failure, it is very unlikely it will dp well enough to build a solid foundtation for the Spideyverse.

IMHO the Spideyverse was always questionable; it's really hard to build a franchise based upon taking supporting charecters in a franchise and giving them solo movies. SOme of Sony's ideas, like the solo Young Aunt May movie, were so ridiculous that you have to wonder if the person making the propowol had not had one too many martini's at lunch.

Honestly, are people surprised by the film’s critical reception? The trailers looked awful and the effects were horrible.

[movieboner]

Sony screwed up again. They don't know how to make superhero movies.

Venom domestic headed toward an October opening record of $60M-$65M

 

https://deadline.com/2018/10/venom-to-course-throughout-the-world-with-175m-debut-as-bradley-cooper-lady-gagas-a-star-is-born-tunes-up-for-a-long-tour-1202474768/

[Cmasterclay]

Comparing it to four not-well received, non-MCU early 2000s type one offs

 

Daredevil adjusted: 61m

Hulk adjusted: 95m

Green Lantern: 61m

The Incredible Hulk (yea yea I know it was technically MCU, but come on people) - 71m

 

When you combine that with the trailer views, tracking, and pre-sales, I think October record seems fairly safe at this point.

I’ve seen Bot twitter accounts on the last couple of pages of this thread

 

They have a witty (probably copied) tweet on every American trending topic which leads their accounts to have an obscene amount of tweets per day. Mostly harmless jokes in order to gain legitimate followers. When it comes to politics and media they tweet about it with a right wing slant to their followers, that is how they operate. 

 

Edit: for example: This account is tweeting anti-Star Is Born, Pro-Star is Born, and is also a BTS Fan Account. It Tweets on everything just gain followers

 

 

 

#Armys!!! Lady Gaga was just seen wearing this hat out in public for support of BTS!!! Let’s show how thankful we are by going to see #AStarIsBorn on Friday!!! pic.twitter.com/HYC5pvxCue

Walked into #AStarIsBorn and was disappointed. Completely filled with Neo-Nazi propaganda and Bradley Coopers character constantly muttered the phrase the “South will rise again.” Taking my 8 kids and 9 grandchildren to see #Venom instead.

All this talk about social media bots and what not is only adding to my belief that the world would be a better place if Facebook and Twitter just went away. 

 

Anyway, I look forward to seeing what the RT score for this movie ends up being.

According to Deadline young females aren't all that interested in A Star Is Born but rather older females are clamoring about it. So I guess the Venom fans thinking it's the Lady Gaga stans attacking their movie, better watch out for the minivan moms coming through

It seems to range from Catwoman/F4-level disaster to weird but unintentionally funny reviews so I don't see that translating into anything over 50% lol

Catwoman and F4 were far worse than this in terms of critical/social media reception. I see your point, though.

Gaga fans ready to join the Fanboy Wars.

Only thing that made "Spiderman"Homecoming" a good movie was Feige's and Marvel Studios direct involment. Feige kept his distance from this one,and look at what is likely to happen.
