Wonder when actual reviews will be out, they can’t keep with those tweets forever

Personally I’ve never read anything about standing ovations at test screenings but I’m not gonna argue about that point. With respects the other points, who really cares? So what if they said the movie was received really well? They said that about Batman also, no one called this the best superhero movie ever so you guys should stop with that garbage already, you’re just as bad as so called scoopers and leakers saying stuff that was never said, it’s just so annoying already. 

You posted just yesterday about how Stephen King said he loves this movie, even though he doesn’t usually care for superhero movies, and made a snarky jab towards the people who think WB is paying for this movie’s buzz. That was how this conversation started. Again, I wasn’t even the one who made the initial comment about WB’s desperation. I didn’t even claim that King was paid to praise this. 

 

For the record, here is the comment I made on April 25th regarding this movie’s potential word of mouth. 

Anyway, I think I’m just going to leave this thread. This isn’t worth it.

My post was an obvious joke stemming from everyone making fun of the Cruise situation before. I’ll make sure to add an /s next time so it’s more obvious.

I’m well aware it was a joke. You’ve made it very clear that you’re hyped for this. You made that joke, and then another poster accused WB of being desperate, and I chimed in with my two cents. That was it. 
 

If that annoyed you, it wasn’t my intention. For what it’s worth, I wouldn’t have said what I said if I know you guys would react this way. I’m sorry.

Alright @grim22 @WittyUsername We're done with this little spat. If you want to fight, you can do it through PMs. But we're finished with this in here.

I don’t need an apologize tbh, you’re entitled to your opinion and if someone is annoying me in general I just try to skip over their posts or ignore them. My posts before were more in general towards many people in this thread and that I’ve seen online on twitter.

 

I can just already see how this is going to play out when the movie comes out. But I lived through BvS so I can’t imagine this will be worse. 
 

Also, the only real issue I have is people saying how this has been touted as the best comic book ever when that isn’t the case. Sure people have been saying it’s really good and fun and may be the best DCEU movie ever but what does that really mean when so many of these movies have been hated by critics and audiences .

Yeah, they definitely need at least 82-84% on RT now or these last few weeks will backfire.

[keysersoze123]

We will know if Marketing has backfired or not on Tuesday. Let us wait and see.

Shazam sales incoming.

 

 

But realistically I don’t expect big things. We’ll see. 

[thajdikt]

I expect sales to be huge tbh

I guess cause there’s a Batman in this movie sales could be decent but I’d be surprised if they were huge. Hope I’m wrong though.

This thread is going to get nasty.  I'm personally staying out of it. 

[21C]

I think opening weekend will land somewhere between JL 2017 and The Batman.

Yeah I'm already planning to do this because of spoilers and also this.

[cax16]

If I had to guess opening weekend numbers before presales start I’d expect somewhere in the range of 75-90m and maybe if wom is really good it could push 100m. 

[excel1]

$100m would be a big win here obviously.

[Ohana]

2 Batmans, Supergirl, Flash, Wonder Woman + various cameos, Snyderverse + Reboot & 1 year of building hype.
This should easily clear 100M.

[Maggie]

I pray for good movie and great reviews. Some good people have their reputation on the line (Stephen King, Cruise, Jaden Smith....😁

Stopping by here one more time just to say that after these early reviews for Indy 5, I think they made a mistake moving this up a week. If I were them, I’d be more concerned about Spider-Verse than Indiana Jones at this point, especially since they’re both multiverse movies.
