New Weekend Thread..Shazam 6.3 Little 5.3 Hell 4.9...NO FLAME WARS PLEASE!

Recommended Posts

okay everyone we are going to open a new weekend thread because the last one had way too many reports and complaints in it. Can we please drop the childish and immature and completely unnecessary comparisons between captain Marvel and Wonder woman and so on and so on? You can go ahead and say that Shazam is underperforming, you can go ahead and say the captain Marvel is doing really really well. But just enough with the comparisons and the snide remarks and so on. Unfortunately the members of this site have all proven that none of us can see me to compare DC and Marvel without losing our freaking minds from time to time.

 

So let's start fresh and talk about the weekend numbers.

 

moderators will be watching and handing out sweatbands and possible suspensions if you guys cannot behave.

 

Thank you.

The Endgame thread and maybe the PikaPika thread will be nightmares for mods.

I think Pika-Pika thread will be absolute nightmare. 

 

I have exam during that time, I will miss it. 😔😔😔

No offense, but is a whole new thread really necessary? All this does is brush these actions under the rug, and doesn't give any of the perpretrators of these flame wars any repercussions.

 

Simply locking the thread for a few minutes, look to find the inciting posts/trolls, and then threadban the people who started this (Matthew and LordNox were definitely some of the people who started this mess). It might be harder, but at least the people who deserve repercussions would get it.

Maybe a new thread is not exactly what the forums deserves right now but it's the one that we need.

Still doesn't answer why you just decided to start a completely new thread instead of just locking it 20-40 minutes, throw out threadbans/suspensions, and then start things fresh again. This isn't a highly-anticipated weekend thread where this could be somewhat justified. The #1 movie right now is a second weekend holdover that's looking to make less than 25M.

I’m trying to have a nice day out with family and the many many reports are ruining it. Expect a lot of points and bans when the mods reconvene later today.

I’ve always held that mods are far too lenient on trolls and those who subtly wants to stir the pot and skirt the lines. 

 

I agree with CoolEric. These people who start and carry such useless conversations needs harsh actions.

bcs it takes a lot of work? Why should they suffer through that, it were a lot of posts that belong into the fan war thread

 

And probably a good lesson for when e.g. the Endgame crazyness starts?

^^^This. It’s the only real way to stop this mess before it gets worse.

Ugly drops for everything except Captain Marvel. Only gonna make it more easy for theaters to drop movies or reduce showtimes for everything in two weeks when Endgame arrives to show us the absolute maximum a movie can make on a single weekend.

Again, it's not that busy of a weekend. A thread lock would more than suffice, and if needed, people can just go to the specific movie threads.
