ZattMurdock Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Is BKB IS HULK a Nolan/WB troll mole? Hahaha bullseye! I mean, the signs are all there. Reverse psychology can be clever, but this one just stand out in my eyes. His posting habits have a very odd pattern, and he seems to not have a single clue about the Marvel Universe besides the movies. You'd think someone as passionate would have a deeper connection with these characters, instead all I see is he trying to rile up Nolan fans and make TA fans look bad in the proccess. Don't mean to offend BKB, but that's truly what looks like. And even if it isn't, it's better than the truth. Can you imagine how tragic it would be for someone rooting against a movie to have your wild prediction to come true, even if it wasn't what you thought it'd happen and most of all, it was aimed to make TA fans look ridiculous expecting a $200m OW? I'm paranoid, but that doesn't mean I'm not right, haha. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cochofles Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Ok, so which film do you guys think will end TA's reign atop the box office charts in the coming weeks? I already want to see what the next big box office story will be. We had THG, then TA, now what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecstasy Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Trust me, he's not onto anything but himself.. It's pretty cut and dry and your all making it out to be more complicated then it is.. I understand how you feel about Nolan but why bring Rth into this. He's just a guy giving us numbers even if a few posters go overboard with their reverence, lol. I appreciate what he does. He doesn't have to do it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cochofles Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) I'd be shocked if MIB:3 were to do it, but if not that, then PROMETHEUS.. Hey, I hope that, if PROMETHEUS dethrones TA, it actually becomes a big box office hit and a well-loved film in its own right. I would hate if it were just remembered as 'that sci film that finally pushed TA out of the # 1 spot.". I mean, who the hell remembers Lost in Space ( detrhroned Titanic) or Dear John (dethroned Avatar)?? Edited May 17, 2012 by cochofles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Will you guys lay off BKB. He's not trolling for pete sake. He doesn't like Nolan. Jesus. When the masses rip into a film like Twilight or a film maker like Bay, that's not trolling because most of you fell the same way. So stop being hypocrites. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 (edited) Yes.. This.. I also hope the R-Rating that the movie received is worthy of being R-Rated and not given this rating just to shut the fans up over the whole PG-13 factor?? This doesn't happen. This has never happened before in the history of films. The film studio is not in charge of the MPAA. The MPAA rates the film. Not the studio. So they can't "make it R" just for the sake of it. And i'm 100% sure that the MPAA do not give a flying fuck if the fanboys are happy with a PG-13 or not. Edited May 17, 2012 by Krissykins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So stop being hypocrites.Although I do like this post, and I don't necessarily like BKB's style, I have to point out that you have done the exact same thing when someone rips into a film that you like. Remember how many times you called me a troll? No hard feelings, just saying... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already want to see what the next big box office story will be. We had THG, then TA, now what?The Dictator almost did Wednesday. 4.1m to 6.3m is a slim margin. Battleship + The Dictator could do it this weekend? At least out of the No 1 spot definitely not for total gross or records. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
