Mojoguy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Again in no way am I saying WB is responsible but they are a billion dollar movie stuido, let's not act like it's going to hurt their pockets to start a memorial fund.It won't. But I bet they are worried that critics would say they were only doing it for the good publicity.They need to be super careful about they handle this thing.

riczhang Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I'll have a theatre report by noon PST, if anyone's still interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 frankly it needs to drop around 50% in the 2nd weekend or its game over for TDK gross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Not really. Inception got B+ and look at its legs.Meh, I consider a B+ to be close enough to an A. My point still stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatebox Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I may not remember all the details, but my general lingering impression of those fights involves static shots that resulted in very little excitement. I'm not saying edit them like Gladiator, but do something to punch them up a bit.Well, a lot of people complained the previous two films had too many cuts in the fight sequences so I guess they couldn't please everyone. To see Batman try (and fail) so hard against this guy that he's literally screaming was exciting enough for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 People should be suing the theater for letting an army man get in.Right?Please don't tell me that was an attempt at humor, grow up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Nevada Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I dont think the Aurora shooting will have nearly as massive of an impact as the Columbine Massacre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lab276 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Meh, I consider a B+ to be close enough to an A. My point still stands. B+ is close to A, but A is most definitely worse than A+? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Apparently we are not getting any numbers today...... Hey I remember stopping at a gas station and buying a USA Today newspaper to see what the box office was for the weekend, that was the only way to get the numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 The terrible part is the guy supposedly called himself "The Joker" and the media has latched on to "The Dark Knight" or "Batman" killings headline. The whole thing is a disaster, no blockbuster in history has had something this tragic happen.Any sane person would realize this wasn't TDKR's fault, but the news programs really aren't helping. I wish they would shut up about the violence in this movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most fanboys already saw it on Friday. It is going to need great walks up next weekend to see that good of a drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jb007 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 To blame TDKR for some lunatic's action would be ludicrous. This loser decided to use this ultra hyped event to kill/hurt people to get attention. The hype/studio/TDKR have not caused this massacre. James Holmes did and nobody else.

filmscholar Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I understand the "No Numbers" for the weekend approach. WB and other studios don't want to focus on money when there is this huge of a tradegy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I dont think the Aurora shooting will have nearly as massive of an impact as the Columbine Massacre.Pretty much the same around of people were killed, but way more were injured in this shooting. I hope this finally gets theaters to increase security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 did anyone take a look at the holdovers numbers in the last Deadline update?? Ugh, This entire weekend at the box office is just fucking awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
