JohnnyGossamer Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Honestly, thought an erect penis was essentially an automatic NC 17. Could be mistaken... Maybe it's penetration that solidifies that rating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blaze Heatnix Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Scott Mendelson thinks this movie will get a D+ CinemaScore. He also said it was funny. I've read many critics saying the same thing ( that it has funny parts ). What's up with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 This honestly feels like it's opening next week with almost no buzz despite the reviews. Releasing it against Spider-Man/on 4th of July was probably a big mistake even if it was never gonna be more than a midlevel performer at best. Thinking making as much as Hereditary's opening weekend ($13M) in total would be considered a minor win at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So... Not that surprising for me. https://www.indiewire.com/2018/06/hereditary-director-ari-aster-short-films-1201973245/ Edited June 26, 2019 by JohnnyGossamer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember people HATED Hereditary a lot.. No way. There are some details of the gore in this movie and it is martyr level shit. This thing is probably getting a D/D- in Cinemascore.

Considering this is likely gonna get a poor response from most of the people who see it (which is looking to be not many), probably not. Although who knows, maybe that running time will scare off the people who would've hated this had the marketing been visible enough to attract them.

Probably some of the early so I movies come to mine but I think using markers as a comparison is an apt one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePhasmid Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) If Taxidermia were given a wide release, it might end up similar to this. I don't see how this film becomes more than a cult curiosity on home video. I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I'm just saying that's where it's heading.

tonytr87 Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Maybe we should all stop assuming audience reaction before the movie even comes out. Can we try that? It's utterly pointless to speculate on that part, particularly given the dubiousness of Cinemascore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanboy Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Well there is no doubt that audiences are going to give it a bad Cinemascore and that's all that really matters. A lot of critics are hesitant in describing this as a horror movie as well. It's still early but presales so far haven't been that bad when you compare them to Annabelle at the same point. Of course, this is going to be more presale heavy, but I still can't see it performing like It Comes at Night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Surprisingly, we already have tickets up at the Real Theater. They're still full price, so I hope the 'second run' theater gets it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
