Take me down to the Empire City,

Where the spirit is mean,

And the posts are petty!

OH WON'T YOU PLEASE TAKE ME HOME

I miss the days where people would be able to debate each other - and even if things got heated, it wouldn't result in banning always. People have become so accustomed to banning and vilifying everyone here since 2017, it's ridiculous. Granted, I'm posting while on page 12...so do not know what has happened after that but will continue reading. It's just annoying that people get banned here so quickly - and banned because they do not want to accept another person's point of view. 

 

The internet is quite different than it used to be.

 

Like before 2015/2016 it was more a wild wild west place of open ideas and thoughts. You could watch 9/11 conspiracies on YouTube, and we used to have epic battles but not really take it personally. Trolling and poking fun of each other was seen as 'normal'.

 

However, a lot of people started to feel an uncontrolled internet is a massive threat to the status quo. Brexit and Trump etc.

Ever since there has been a huge corporate centralization of the internet and a lot of gatekeeping. 

Furthermore, a lot of the younger generation has been brought up with a less 'thick skin' and more that if you don’t agree with something try to get rid of it then just ignoring it.

 

These general trends have led to many websites becoming much more sanitized and moderated then before.

 

These general trends have carried forward to this website as well. 

 

I be honest before I used to engage 'in jest trolling comment' as a joke and it would be seen as 'good fun' but that is not seen as acceptable anymore here. So we move on 😊

Since we're following Minions vs Thor for #4, how did Minions have such a spectacular Wednesday last week?

 

13.568M vs TLT 9.1M

 

Total BO through same day of release:

Thor LT $179.1M

Minions $154.186M

 

Thor has a $25M lead, for now, but it's fallen behind Minions dailies already (although Thursday should be much tighter since Minions was only $10.342M, so the difference should be $2Mish, not $4Mish...)

 

PS - Minions went $46.128M after losing PLFs to Thor for its 2nd weekend.  That's my Thor mark for this weekend - worse WOM, still PLFs and tons of showings...

You talk about Thor as if it were a JW movie.

July 4th week is a big vacation period, so a lot more families having free time, inflated dailies, including Friday, so weaker Saturday increases

 

Looking at these dailies, not sure Thor vs Minions is going to be much of a battle in the end, as the little yellow guys may wind up $20M ahead

Twitter is down?  EC must have gotten angry that his tweets weren't getting much engagement.

Minions falling more than 55% from last Wednesday just looks weird.

I am currently thinking $325-335M but I think missing $300M will be justice.

Probably ending at $299,999,999

Anyway, I just saw this newer movie and I liked it a lot. It's called Star Wars: The Last Jedi. What did you guys think of it?

Best Star Wars movie ever. May be even the only good Episodic Star Wars movies.

Last week dailies were inflated due to ID.

Friday increase will be better.

Damn those thor dailies look baad.

[parkerthegreat]

Thor missing $300 mil would be a day of reckoning for Feige and co. I now want this to happen. It would take a worse multi than MoM but that doesn’t seem impossible right now.
