It dropped to an 83 on Metacritic after 25 reviews. Apes might get better reviews in the end.

It can increase after all reviews. Not all critics have seen it yet.

Glad to see Deni make it.

We can get more high budget films that are art, maybe Deni can help Jim pull us out of this cape rut.

I'm hoping for some big money for big D, I'm going to be cheerleading this.

 

Deni, Deni, he's our man. If he can't do it, jim cameron can

Currently 93% on RT with 61 reviews.

[JohnnyGossamer]

Reviews are great. This one was going to draw a harsh eye from critics given it's arguable the most unnecessary sequel imaginable. The fact the reviews are as glowing as they are is pretty miraculous.

 

Very similar reception to...

...Snowpiercer. Which is essentially the last movie of its kind with an auteur filmmaker at the helm.

RT score dipped below 95%. Pre-sales have come to a screeching halt as a direct result.

I'd say an OW in the 40-50m range is quite possible given pre-sales.  I don't want to jump the gun and say higher, but I wouldn't be totally shocked if it breaks the October OW record.

[FantasticBeasts]

$60m OW here we go!

Denis is the man. He is coming for the blood that Arrival deserved.

[AndyK]

They cancelled the Red Carpet premier tonight, due to recent events.

 

There is going to be a low key premier tomorrow.

Not to be picky, but this only refers to MovieTickets.com online presales, right?  And War for the Planet of the Apes had the hugely publicized $4 TMobile deal on Atom this summer, so it would have had lower presales in MovieTickets.com vs Blade Runner 2049 which doesn't currently have a TMobile Atom ticket deal (unlike MLP:))...

Fandango tickets came with an offer for a limited edition Blade Runner bobblehead thing...haha, I let everyone else decide how much that may have swayed people to Fandango over movie tickets.com.

Are the reviews saying you need to watch the first before seeing 2049? My cousin has never seen it, she asking me if she needs to.

Judging by the trailers I think you kinda have to

I've seen some say it's easy to follow for anyone who hasn't seen the first but anyone who has will appreciate it the most.
