Just got back from seeing it and I’d say the RT audience score and B+ CS is about right. 
 

Overall  it was decent but not nearly as good as Ragnarok. The last act was the best part. 

 

This is rare, too...that the third act actually "works" for people!!  😅  What a bizarre endeavor...  

 

When this gets solidified I think it'll be closer to the $130s than the $150s... which means I'll say one more TOLDJA!  😁

I mean, Minions is even dropping 55%. So, yeah, thinking 60%+ drop. Heck JWD dropped just about 60% on it's second weekend with a super inflated Father's Day Sunday and Juneteenth holiday the following Monday. And, then it still recovered well enough after that. I'm sure Thor will have nice weekday numbers though... Before the inevitable big drop next weekend. Summer weekday numbers were great last week and should be super strong again this week... For everything, including TLT.

Even with 41M+ today? I'd think that would almost lock it for 140M+ OW? Or, do you mean it'll be close to 139M than 150M so it would need to do 145M+ to not be closer to the 130Ms?

Is it? The last four MCU movies have been most praised for their third acts.

Yeah duh

[filmnerdjamie]

Why do I get the feeling this is headed for a Snyder level drop next weekend?

Tbh for me TA is the only good Avengers movie thus far. They have had some good solo entries since, though.

[marveldcfox]

Watched it last night. It was a fun movie, but served no purpose in the grander scheme of things.

[ringedmortality]

I recently re-watched phase 1 and it's shocking how good Iron Man - Captain America look. Especially compared to the rest of the MCU. Even The Avengers looks colorful and cartoony, which is something.

If there was a huge 100+mil opw competition maybe but there isn't. I'm giving it the same drop as Doctor Strange 2.

Phase 1 doesn't have the lows of any phase after it but nor does it have the highs of any phase after it. It's the milquetoast phase.

TIL that IW+AEG was 6 years after the MCU peaked 🤣🤣🤣

All audience RT score 74% same as Eternals now

I mean for example yes it was Infinity Saga, but first few solo MCU movies were solely building towards The Avengers.

 

They had in mind what they need to do down the line, but their main focus was Avengers.

 

Here in Phase 4 i feel currently they are thinking what they need to do many years later, and doubt so many different things which are different to each other.

 

Only place where i felt we are really in MCU we know was Shang Chi post credit scene.

Verified score is heading towards the 70's (81 now)

Was this lucky to get a B+?

According to DL, yep

 

Quote

Comscore/Screen Engine PostTrak exits for general audiences are still sitting at 3 1/2 stars with a 77% positive, not far from Eternals’ 75%. If you take Sony’s Spider-Man: No Way Home out of the equation, which got an A+ from audiences, that’s three Bs in a row from Disney/MCU, going back to November’s ,Eternals (B).
