lab276 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I don't want to hear it BKB. This is a tragedy. Don't start your shit.He's not, that's the point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sims Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 And I'll tell ya: You know how I said this would get a WWW Thread if this was under 170M??? Well, if this happens, I'm withdrawing that from consideration out of just common courtesy.. This is terrible foliks, just terrible.. Wow, how magnanimous of you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 AS for security measures, apparently, the shooter entered the theater through the emergency exit backdoor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 If this affects BO, it won't just be DKR, it will be every movie.Definitely. People will just feel weird about going to the cinema this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 People are panicky and understandably irrational after things like this. Suddenly there's a huge stigma associated with being in a crowded theater this weekend.I know. But look at what people are saying. It's like they are living in a bubble. https://twitter.com/#!/search/realtime/%23TDKR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZattMurdock Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 If this affects BO, it won't just be DKR, it will be every movie.Exact. I'm done. I've paid for three movie tickets next weekend but I'm out. Nothing is worthy of running this kind of risk. We need a change in the security of not only America, but all shopping malls. I expect this to have a precedent on how people can get inside shopping malls and movie theaters from now on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloneWars Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Good on ya. This is a terrible thing, and discussing the negative effect on the movie from a victorious stand-point would be despicable.If this never happened and it were to open under 170, I'd be in full agreement with you that it failed. But now...I'd be suprised if it did more than DH2, to be honest...I have to agree. This is isn't the right time or place for BKB to be claiming a victory, especially under these circumstances. I am depressed at the new. Edited July 20, 2012 by CloneWars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddevil18 Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Not that much... but under DH2 is a definite possibility now.....True. But if Friday ends up at 80 million, I can see a 2.0 multiplier, so it could very well be under TDK... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitik Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 People are panicky and understandably irrational after things like this. Suddenly there's a huge stigma associated with being in a crowded theater this weekend.Its not just that. People go to the movies to escape reality and to HAVE A GOOD TIME. There's surely a lot of folks who won't be able to enjoy themselves sitting in a movie theater this weekend. You can't have fun and enjoy yourself if the first thing you think of is a massacre when you walk into a theater. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I seriously don't understand why people should avoid cinemas in mass. If you're afraid to go to a theatre, because one lunatic's killing spree then you better never ever leave your house. Who's to say that a crazy person won't shoot you in a shopping mall? Or a drunk driver going off the road and hit you. Are you telling me that you can prepare for events like this? No. It can happen anywhere and anytime unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedarpoint1111 Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 You still awake?Trying to sleep, but like I said. I can't just shut off my brain. I need to be up in 4 hours. =S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloneWars Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 He's not, that's the point.Good. I saw his follow-up post. I am not in a good mood now after all this news. BKB's rants would just make me go crazy on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like they are living in a bubble.https://twitter.com/.../realtime/#TDKRIt's still the middle of the night. People who stay up that late usually don't watch the news and mainly stick to their group for on-line discussion, so it's harder to get the word out until the morning...

CloneWars Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Um, you do recognize I said out of common courtesy, right??? Jesus, between you and Jack, you guys need to log off and get some air.. I'm sorry. I misread your post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 It does kind of damper my plan of what I planned to do this weekend. I wanted to see Beasts of the Southern Wild on Sunday. Kind of iffy about it now. But I want to do it because I am not afraid, I'm angry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
