film2kz Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 (edited) Then I disagree. I don't think it was that much different, or an abstraction from the others.that wiki link is way too confusingthis is what meta means (according to urbandictionary):A term, especially in art, used to characterize something that is characteristically self-referential.

Gopher Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 It should beat DH2 in the long run. Needs a 3.33 multiplier from this weekend to break it... with little competition in the next three weeks, that's doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 8, 2012 Author Share Posted April 8, 2012 Okay, I'm out. I haven't see a movie less deserving than this kind of success since I'm not even sure when. What a horrible film to be finding this much loot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeOshea13 Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 UGGG..33 mill for THG? That makes me want to throw up in my mouth.....alot.Seriously? The film wasn't that bad. In fact for a Hollywood franchise based on a book it was actually very good. It obviously had alot of issues (the pacing during the games fell apart) but it felt like it was aiming to be a good film not just a successful franchise.

Cochofles Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Man I remember the buzz, hype, and way outrageously unrealistic overpredictions for Scream 4. Everyone was uber-convinced that it would open with 40, 45, 50 million dollars. Then it actually opened. (Hmm, reminds me of a current fanboy favorite around here that has everyone convinced it will open to beyond amazing numbers in the summer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a joke. It's going to be the worst film to make 300 mill in my eyes....well close anyways, DMC is the worst to make 300. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just find THG to be so sad, it really is. I'm sure the books are good, but the film was terrible in so many ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A - Cinemascore, good reviews from critics and the media "siding with it" as well? Ever thought the problem may be with you rather than the film?
