TheDarkKnightOfSteel Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 6 hours ago, Gavin Feng said: many who saw midnights felt they were deceived -- not a real superhero movie, more like some kind of rom-comedy. too long with 150 mins endless talking instead of fighting. director/writers keep telling audience how to love, so narcissistic just like TENET, it's not a blockbuster people expected. They want to experience something epic, but neither of them have that. So it ain't a real Superhero movie unless it's 2 hours of two testosterone injected guys punching each other? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Feng Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 title name of chapter 16 of Mandalorian called The Rescue. It seems inevitable that the weekend belongs to The Rescue. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Feng Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Douban & Maoyan MoS - 7.1 & ~ BvS - 6.8 & 8.0 WW - 7.1 & 8.6 JL - 6.4 & 8.6 AQM - 7.6 & 9.3 Shazam - 6.3 & 7.9 WW84 - 6.7 & 8.0 so it's very close to BvS(OW*1.67 multiple) and Shazam(1.43). It looks like $35-40M lifetime after $24M opening. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cax16 Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Never imagined it would be under Shazam but here we are lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPLC Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 $35M-$40M lifetime is more than the OW you predicted last week. In addition to a disinterest in the film, the movie sucks and the reviews are bad. Another DC Comics film to forget and forgettable like sucide squads or shazam ... . Luckily Marvel and movies like Shang Chi, Eternals, and Black Widow will catch up in 2021. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooper Legion Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 I’m getting strong vibes of J:TNL from almost exactly a year ago, which went on to do fine reception/business DOM and OS-C. I feel like (non-MCU) HW sequels have been really struggling here for quite a while now, even several years pre-covid. Can’t think of one off the top of my head where the first movie did some decent business (say top 50 yearly in China) and the sequel had a higher share of HW gross for its year than the first movie did. Could just be subconsciously cherry-picking though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FK was able to increase in $ at least, but it was only 14%. I suspect that’s a bit less than HW performance in China grew from 2015 to 2018, but finding a clean source is proving annoying.
