Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 June should be exciting, something will be bound to suprise, either Promtheus, Snow White, Brave and maybe Ted.NahSome early words on some of those films suck. This could be the worse summer for quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totem Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 The Avengers making a whole bunch of money does not compensate for all of these disappointments.It does a bit though. TA + a bunch of bombs is still better then lets say Thor + a bunch of bombs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hiccup Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 In order for June to be a success Snow White needs to top 50M opening weekend, Prometheus and Madagascar 3 need to top 55M and 45M opening weekend, Rock of Ages and That's My Boy need to both open over 30M, Brave needs to get over 60M and Abraham Lincoln needs to get over 20M, and finally Tyler Perry and Ted needs to open over 25M and 30M.

MovieMan89 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 (edited) Nah Some early words on some of those films suck. This could be the worse summer for quality. If SWATH, Prometheus, and Brave suck then I officially give up trying to predict a movie's quality based on trailers ever again.

lab276 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 It does a bit though. TA + a bunch of bombs is still better then lets say Thor + a bunch of bombs.But this May will end up behind last year's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackspider Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 The Avengers making a whole bunch of money does not compensate for all of these disappointments.There's always going to be disapointments. The WOM on both Dark Shadows and Battleship were pretty weak. If they were better films, they would do better numbers. Pretty simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZattMurdock Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 NahSome early words on some of those films suck. This could be the worse summer for quality.Wrong. So wrong about worse summer for quality. Ridiculous wrong.The Avengers.Prometheus.The Amazing Spider-Man.The Dark Knight Rises.With three of them breaking the $1B barrier and a superb Alien prequel? This has everything to become the most epic summer blockbuster year of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 But this May will end up behind last year's.Who cares?Do you think everyone wants Battleship and Dark Shadows to do well just to beat some record. As long as good movies are making money and crap ones don't make much I'm happy. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWATH will suck terribly. You're on the money about the other two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 Geez, Battleshit has a $210m budget. I give up. $200m budgets are the new $100m budgets of a decade ago. Unbelievable how crazy the spending has become in recent years. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
