It's THE BEST.  I know it's heresy but I enjoy it even more than BTAS.

B&TB doesn't hold a candle to B:TAS imo.

My friend flat out thought Shazam was a parody movie similar to Scary Movie

It's such a good introduction to the lesser corners of the DC Universe while completely embracing the Silver Age era of comics. Pity it got replaced by Beware the Batman which then proceeded to only run for one season

Seems like openers are flopping. Shame.

Most interesting bit there among the fun with fuzzy math is learning Aquaman was "critically acclaimed"

New Line/DC’s Shazam! is currently at this point in time looking at a $18M Friday, a 3-day of $47M and including previews a running total of $49.3M. Note late night business yesterday pushed its Thursday higher, so we might see the same again tonight, plus Saturday matinees, natch.

 

Paramount’s Pet Sematary is drawing in $9.3M today and a 3-day opening of $22M.

Still too early especially for a more kid/family focused superhero movie.

Umm, Deadline - Math is fundamental...$47M + $3.3M in early previews gets to $50.3M:)...

Aquaman was not well known among GA I think, it was the jokes people made out of the character that were famous, no ?

Entourage much ?

 

 

Aquaman was more known than 95% of all the MCU characters before their movie.

The biggest complaint I’m seeing on twitter about Pet Semetary is that the trailers gave away way too much, including the huge plot twist. Because of that, it’s less exciting and quite meh. 

[AJG]

Shazam was a nice time at the movies. Took me back to the live action family film (before they were killed off by PG13 mega franchises). 

 

Could've done with a lot more humour. It’s funny, just not any jokes I’d remember.
