Bob Violence Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) Just got back from a midnight screening.... Man alive, the "additional scenes" are terrible. The extra stuff in Looper was pointless, but at least it didn't feel like it was cut in from a different movie. The extra stuff in IM3 is integrated about as well as the Bela Lugosi footage in Plan 9 From Outer Space. Fan Bingbing appears at the last possible minute and stops the ending dead in its tracks. On top of that, the Chinese version is missing the post-credits scene. (I guess it wasn't ready in time?) So a brief summary: the Chinese version is actually missing material from the standard international version, and the material it adds is all bullshit. Great. But the rest of the movie is good! Way better than IM2. Kingsley is great and the whiny fanboys can go pound sand. The old Mandarin was just a Fu Manchu knockoff anyway. The theater was about 4/5 full, which is pretty good given that it has 377 seats (it's an IMAX screen). And the theater added a 12:15 screening at some point within the last couple of days, so that's good news too.

Sam Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 More praises for King Ben :wub:Bob, how was the crowd reaction at your showing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Violence Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 They were definitely into it. Lots of laughs, mainly at the physical comedy (which comes across better in China than the verbal humor). Occasional signs of female swooning for RDJ. Lots of "oohs" and "aahs" when the "house party" arrives . Scattered applause at the end, though the lack of a post-credits scene was severely disappointing--best reaction came from the dude in front of me, who said, in English, "this is bullshit!" But probably 4 out of 5 people left the theater during the credits anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 (edited) Awesome. You said 9 x midnight for rest of the day so are we looking at 18M? Bigger md could mean less muliplier. TF3 x~9 (summer) T3D x7~ (Apr) So around x8 for IM3 I think. Will see. Firedeep is it promising for IM3's OW to reach $50m? 5 days highly likely Edited May 1, 2013 by firedeep 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
