 WOW. Editor of an indie film and possibly best editing oscar? You've hit the big leagues kid! @Telemachos

 

Next come the 100m predictions, expectations, the actual release, and then rage, disappointment, and being called a flop.

There’s a chance it does end up on Netflix, actually.  

Tele will get Netflix its first Oscar.

To us, you'll never be a flop, cause you're da bomb.

I credit James Cameron and Entourage with 7% of Aquaman's success. 

 

Tangential to Baumer's comments on Bay and Transformers a few pages back I agree a little but I hope he moves on permanently. 13 hours is one of my favorite movies to rewatch and I want to see what he can do with other things.

If Bay mainly focuses on the action in Six Underground and lets Reynolds, Reese and Wernick be funny as they are, it should work. If Bay tries to tell Reynolds how to be funny, it’s gonna suck.

You do realize that before this super hero craze hit, there were several origin CBM that did like $300M. I’m sure their studios didn’t see them as box office failures as they all got sequels. I’m sure you’ve heard of Batman Begins, right? And Captain America The First Avenger?

 

Its a great thing that the Internet when those films came out isn’t like it is today because those films would be considered bombs/flops by your standards and who knows if we get sequels to them because of overreactions that are unnecessary. 

An alternate reality without the superhero craze? Yes, please!

I think both of those cases were unrealistic expectations rather than a movie underperforming.  Disney probably isn’t all that upset with how Poppins is performing, it’ll be a profitable hit.

People always ignore the fact that the second movie in a Star Wars trilogy always drops 30-35% from the first one and TLJ had another juggernaut playing at the same time.

 

Besides, Poppins is already holding way better than the last Rob Marshall directed musical featuring Emily Blunt and Meryl Streep that Disney released at Christmastime

The thing is, some years from now those two options will apply to the same person.

Once it gets the BOFFY nom, the Oscar voters will have to listen.
