I NEVER said Green Lantern was a success. I said its opening weekend was good. Stop twisting what others are saying

It dropped 22% from Fri-Sat and fell 66% on it's first Monday. Far from good for a film with a 300M+ budget with marketing.

Wow...so you are projecting the hate you should be throwing toward Sony toward Spider-Man instead? That makes zero sense.

I'm projecting my hate on a reboot not needed, SM1 is one of the best superhero origin.and yet I will watch on tuesday and take my own conclusions Edited July 1, 2012 by Goffe Rises

How quickly we forget

SUNDAY AM, 6TH UPDATE: Warner Bros’ 3D Green Lantern ($21.6M Friday, dropping -21% for $17.1M Saturday, and only a $52.6M weekend) underperforms, unable to meet even the studio’s lowered expectation for North America despite the higher 3D ticket prices.

Still had a respectable though not great OW is his point. Although who really cares with its overall performance? It was a bomb overall and that's what counts. Edited July 1, 2012 by MovieMan89

It was expected to outopen Thor at the time. Calling it a "solid" OW now is revisionist history.

Perhaps. I certainly wouldn't call it a good OW. I don't think you could call it a bad OW either though. Frankly I was shocked it cracked $40m.

Given it's negative reception, a 53 OW was far from bad. Had it been a decent film, it would have performed numbers similar to Thor and Captain America. The OW really highlighted how much of a missed opportunity Green Lantern was. The interest was there, but WB/and the filmmakers really screwed up. Edited July 1, 2012 by MrPink

Thor was a WAY better movie than GL.

First of all no it wasn't, everyone expected it to bomb and bomb hardSecondly yes it had a shitty, shitty run but it opened okay. Falling hard after its opening doesn't take that away from itThird of all, who cares? Aren't there a half dozen TASM threads in which you could be having this inane conversation?

That's so true!

Wreck-It Ralph could make it 4We also could have 4 400M films, something 2011 didn't see one of

More from Nikke.

Hollywood estimated a North American weekend opening of at least the mid-$50M range with the upside as much as $60M-$65M-$70M if the fan boys went for it in 3D despite the poor reviews. The studio now can only hope for a big Father’s Day judging from strong results from past superhero films.

It takes 2 people to have a conversation. If you don't like it then don't butt in.

Putting money on 4. I think IA4 will open just big enough to crawl to the 200 mark. Kids LOVE the trailers everytime I see it in theaters and the series just doesn't seem to run out of steam. Either way, amazing year already for animation after the dreadful one that was 2011.

Nope. Ironically I think our dear Nikki is in the same situation as you right now. Edited July 1, 2012 by MovieMan89
