I want to believe that Pizzaman deliberately wrote the character that way when he was feeling apoplectic

I think he'll get offers if Mag 7 does break out. I do think he's still burnt from the experience of King Arthur hence why he hasn't directed one in a while.

 

Cyborg would be a good choice although I wouldn't be surprised if it's dropped in favour of a Wonder Woman sequel or Booster Gold

 

At this point, it wouldn't surprise me if WB drops Cyborg in favor of a MOS sequel or something.

Hail Pizzaman.

LOL I love everything that came out of Pratt's little twitter Q&A, including this and his Question from James Gunn. Really fun.

Sounds AWESOME!! lol

 

I like Fuqua. I think Tears of the Sun is really underrated. It's one of the few movies where Willis actually seemed like he gave a damn about being in it. 

 

Mag7 looks good to me as well

[filmlover]

I still remember seeing Training Day in the theater and my friend going "damn" whenever we saw random full frontal from Eva Mendes. lol.

It is 79% on RT.  Most seem to be saying it is fun but not groundbreaking.  Some are enthusiastic, some less.

Consensus is shaping to be mixed-to-positive. Which was pretty much expected IMO.

It's probably gonna end up fresh on RT, so I'd say mixed-to-positive is right.

Collider, THR, The Playlist and The Wrap gave it negative reviews, but the rest are positive.

Variety was also negative.

Yeah, but I'm pissed at USA today.  They wrote clips from three negatives and only one positive and said it was panned even though the ratio is the opposite (far more fresh than rotten).  USA Today did not itself review the movie.

Yeah, that annoyed me as well. You can say it's mixed, sure, but the way they presented it makes it sound like a Ben-Hur level pan. 

I feel like some of these media outlets just go for the most sensational headline to attract clicks, and could care less if it's representative. Oh well, that's the nature of click-bait media I guess.

Sony has plenty of pull quotes they can use from the positive reviews so I doubt they're worried. 

 

At the moment I'm thinking Mag 7 will do $50-55m OW but I wouldn't be surprised if it gets close to $60m.
