Sims Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 How accurate is the 27M estimate? When we first saw it I had the impression it was just what Nikki had as an absolute minimum and that the actual number would be considerably higher since "tickets were still selling on the West Coast."

Krissykins Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Why not?That's the reason they were at the cinema at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Yes, maybe this will get out of control, but I have to try appeal to all of the good posters here to try to keep their cool. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Some of you guys must be joking.CNN stating that it is Batman Movie Massacre is not sensationalism. It is a fact.Get off your phony high horses.No, it's the 192-point font and failure to provide any useful information in the headline that constitute sensationalism.

MagnetMan Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 This has to be the worst possible thing that could happen to your movie on opening night, from a studio perspective, right?Not that it was anywhere near as tragic, what was the fallout on the "New Jack City" screenings back in the day?

It'll be refined later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 People have been waiting for the film for years, reviews were great and all signs pointed to records and then a shooting happens.I can see why some of you are getting angry but 12 people have died.

jb007 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 The fact that it's a Batman movie shouldn't work its way into the headline.Blaming somebody without proof would be sensationalism. I have been watching CNN. I did not see any sensationalism in their reporting. It would be unethical for any news agency to not report the truth.

druv10 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 It's a personal tragedy for the victims and their families , but the show must go on. We have been looking forward to this weekend for months/years.BS, people are dead and quite a few seriously wounded. I don't care how much TDKR makes at OD/OW now.

This was a massacre at a PACKED MIDNIGHT showing of probably the most anticipated movie of the year.This is not sensationalism at all, its gonna go down in history known as "The Dark Knight Massacre" or "Batman massacre" or something along those lines. They're not gonna call it "the movie massacre". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
