Its funny how you give every poster here good reasons to put you on the ignore list with literally every post you make lol. And its even funnier that you dont seem to understand why that is the case 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This can't be compared with JW due to father's day and the normative story of record breakers.... All it is doing is probing itself average at best - which is what most sane folks expected. Still dropping here in sync with the rest of the world. I do think FK's drop is being underplayed because pretty much everyone expected a massive drop off. That doesn't change a massive drop off from being a massive drop off though. I mean it's possible FK might have the biggest drop in admissions of any direct sequel this decade besides the dreaded Alice 2. A 370-380 total would put it around the -50% mark, right in Transformers 5 territory. Yes, it hit the high end of its OW tracking and some of us were very wrong about how bad we thought it might do, but it's not exactly looking like a great DOM performance either. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Come on guys.... @Thrylos 7 can say whatever he wants about the film. He thinks it's going to have shit legs and that the opening wasn't as good as it should have been. You can disagree with him but don't start insulting him or tell him to grow up. All opinions are welcome here even if you disagree with them. As to what you said thrylos, I didn't like the movie, at all. I do think it it will get about a 2.5X, maybe 2.6. I don't think it will get to 400 and I didn't think it would after seeing it. It's not nearly as light and fun as the first one. I'm just saying I'm not going to make a judgment call on it because of one bad Monday. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He just doesn't think it's going to have a good multiplier. He hated the movie and thus is expressing his opinion. We shouldn't jump at him because he feels differently than many of you do.

I speak from experience..... #FTSBF I give most folks wide latitude - just trying to help him see what other's find annoying. Also yes #FTSBF @MovieMan89 - I don't think the film is being underplayed so much as that the true hugeness of JW1 is not being given enough respect. It is still going to be a big drop off - to the point of almost feeling like the 80s and 90s - but the film is still going to come down on or just under the low-end of most of our reasonable expectations once the marketing kicked in. It is hard (for me) to judge how well a film does until I see marketing and I myself never felt it was more than a 400/tops film (400/1.1b being the comment I made a few weeks back.) Differing opinions I guess. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the one hand, that's an absurdly good Monday drop. On the other hand, the only other Pixar movie to hold that well on its second Monday had one of the worst third weekend drops of all (MU). Though its third weekend was right after the 4th, so not a good comp. Edited June 26, 2018 by MovieMan89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
