This thread is for guessing and discussion of what you believe the final RT score will be around and why.
This thread is not for the discussion of RT itself! Go to this thread for that http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=355359&page=4
I think the reaction will be strong and as good as Iron Man. I'm think late 80s-early 90s. Yeah, I'm going safe with my prediction haha.

I think it will get a 90-92%. I don't see it getting IM1's 94%, but I think it will score high! Plus, early buzz from test screenings is solid. I think critics will enter the screening expecting it to be good, and they'll like it much like IM1. I don't think critics will have any stigma toward it, like they have for other films.

I dare not speculate because I look at the Green Lantern tomatometer thread and how foolish some of those people looked speculating success on a movie they haven't seen.
However, I think it will get a friendlier reception due to the subject matter. This is the only superhero film that comes to mind that is also a period piece, and critics tend to be suckers for period pieces in general. A character-driven WWII period film (with superheroes!) I think will be able to avoid any genre fatigue superhero films sometimes fall victim to. Especially if Joe Johnston sticks to his formula and harkens back to classic film techniques. Critics tend to forgive a lot of flaws if you appeal to their nostalgia.
I guess I did speculate after all. Oh well.

I didn't want to bring this subject up in this thread because it would derail it, but I believe there's something deeper going on.
There's this stupid talk in the media and many websites that people are getting tired of Superhero movies, such as the one on yahoo. Sites are trying the spin the earning of the superhero movies into people being tired of Superhero movies. I honestly think that's BS and have a conspiracy theory that rival movie studios are paying media to put out stories like that. It makes sense considering that this isn't the first year with multiple superhero movies and just because one of them hasn't made Iron Man money doesn't mean the genre's going to fade away, especially with next year on the horizon.
The fact of people getting tired of Superhero movies is a myth. Just because Thor didn't earn as much as Iron Man doesn't make it a failure. If it appeals to a demographic, they won't care what genre it is if they think it's good and entertaining.
Tony Stark

GL was just a bad movie, it had nothing to do with getting tired of the superhero genre.
I really don't know what Cap is going to end up at, but I'm hoping it will be in the 80's. Nothing would please me more than to see Cap be successful commercially and financially. The previews have looked fantastic, but after the last two crappy Transformer movies, I know not to be fooled by trailers that look good. However I trust that Joe Jonston will be more sensible and mature than Michael Bay's 12 year old potty humor, while still making a fun and enjoyable film ala Rocketeer.

I'm not a big conspiracy theorist, but I must admit, this did cross my mind when I saw these recent articles. It more so seemed to come after the failure of Green Lantern. Thor made something like 430 million world wide, so that's actually a big success not a failure. Just because it didn't make 200 million domestically, doesn't make it a failure.
But the thought crossed my mind that this might have been a WB plant, to smear rival studios movies, just to make GL look better, because in the midst of it's failure, they announced plans for a sequel, although no dates or who would be attached. Just seemed odd.

Agreed. People want to blame the genre because we had no 300 mil grossing comic films this year, but this was not a year suited for it to happen. Thor was a tough sell (but succeeded...just not on an IM level), X-Men had 2 poor outings and only once I think had a 300 mil grosser, and GL sucked. GL bombing is a result of the quality, not anything else. I agree, if a movie looks good, people will see it. This is why I expect Cap to do well. It looks good and likely will have good WOM. If these happen, it will do well. IM1 well, no...but like people in the industry don't seem to get....IM was an anamoly. He wasn't an example of B-listers making A-list money. That was a freak accident.
Plus, like you said...all the comic films next year are very high profile and will do well. This whole "fatigue" thing is stupid, yet people spew it like all the people who religiously watch MSNBC and FoxNews repeat whatever they tell the people to believe.

Also, it has to be a plant. After reading those stories, I asked myself, "When did Iron Man become the minimum bar for box office success?". Yes, he's a B-list superhero that became an A-list superhero, but every B-list hero or below shouldn't be compared to Iron Man in terms of success. That's why I really believe it's a plant. I mean, did anyone say that about Wolverine when that movie didn't gross as much as Iron Man?

There are many reasons GL failed. Thor had many of the same problems in generating an audience GL did, but Thor was a better movie, had better marketing, had reviews weeks in advance (no embargo), and a better release date than GL did. GL having bad buzz on top of a bad release date sealed its fate. Cap's release date isn't great, either...at least for an opening. But, where Cap has an advantage of GL is less competition in weeks following release. Cap can make a lot of that lost OW money back, if WOM is good.

Agreed. IM1 is one of a select few who crossed the 300 mil domestic barrier. Heck, Batman Begins failed to reach that mark! Do we all call that a failure? I think Cap will make more than BB did, WW. But, the funny thing is, no one will argue BB being a failure, but if Cap onl makes 400 or just falls short of 400, I bet you a poster tries making the argument Cap is a failure.
But, it is all useless. I think Cap gets a sequel opening weekend of May, 2014. No matter what anyone here says.

I agree with Parker, and Spider-Fan. It is just internet dribble trying to create attention. Sadly some on the internet will sheep with it and nod their heads, but in the end that's like saying "Blockbusters are saturating the summer market" Yea some one can say that, but that does not stop them from always dominating the summer market. Superhero is a genre, and to me really most never tire of genre people watch action movies every year for the past 35 years almost, and some complain but its not some conspiricy theory of people getting tired of it.
A good movie is a good movie, period. Sometimes good movies will get un-noticed at first and so on, not all of them succeed, but that does not spell doom for the genre at all. I'm sure Cap will do great, and even if not, I'm sure a bunch of comic films next year and the next year will. Superheros have been strong in the comic book world for almost 80 years, there is no slowing down on that or complaining of that. So it is the same with film.
But alas this is the Internet, where some just want to doom and gloom everything.
But Capt looks great, it has my ticket.

I doubt very many would, but I do know some people so susceptible to "news story" opinions they read on the internet (and in particular, so easily swayed by the little blurbs they read off the Yahoo homepage) that they would read that article and then later say to me, "You know, superhero movies aren't that popular anymore" or allow something like that to change affect their reaction to a trailer, "oh, Captain America, another superhero movie? Why, it's not going to make ANY money."
But I think CA will land around the 70-80%. I can't say any better because Joe freaking Johnston directed Jurassic Park III so, no.

I have a feeling this movie will be making a ton of money just based completely on the fact that it's a great moral tale about highly patriotic figure. It's a story that can resonate with a TON of people. The whole point made in the trailer about Steve being a good man even with so much power will be a theme that will draw in a lot of dad's who will bring their sons to show them a good moral story tied to American values.
On the other hand it's looking like a high quality superhero movie in general...which the GA normally eat up anyways.
But the patriotic and strong moral themes will be enough to get even more people in the seats than you'd normally get for a new superhero movie franchise, regardless of whether or not it gets great reviews. And with good to great reviews and WOM...this movie is going to explode. I'd expect IM numbers easy if this is a legitimately great movie.
The Lizard
07-07-2011, 10:48 AM
There will no doubt be certain movie critics who feel required to bash Captain America simply because of its perceived patriotism and the word "America" in the title.
That being said, I'm hoping that the fact that the film seems to have a lot of heart and humanity in it will give it a leg up with those critics who don't normally like loud superhero action flicks.
I'm thinking 75 - 80% Tomatometer.

"Independence Day" was one of the highest grossing international films of all time. That movie borders on jingoism. I think the negative effect any patriotic elements of the films will have internationally are WAAAAY overblown.

You mean the guy that worked on Raiders of the Lost Ark and Star Wars, designing both Boba Fett and Yoda? And directed October Sky and The Rocketeer, two great period pieces?
lol why so sensitive?
Plus if you're going to be selective why leave out 'Hidalgo', 'Jurassic Park 3' and of course the much adored (whoops) 'Wolfman'?
Nice try stockpiling a career with misc info btw you sly dog you :cwink:

^You seem like a bit of a troll. There is a nastiness about your posts and I for one don't care for it.
Hell I'm not a big JJ fan either but I know trollish behavior when I see it.

Hidalgo, and Jurassic Park 3 were awesome. JP3 I thought was way better than The Lost World. Wolfman was not Joe Johnston's fault at all. That movie was a mess from the beginning.

I don't think 90+ is that big of a stretch... it seems the consensus is that it's "as good or better than" Iron Man (94%)

What consensus? I haven't seen/heard anything from anyone who's seen it.

40% based on 6 reviews so far, I'm hoping it will settle somewhere around 70%

The reviews aren't coming in as fast as I'd like with the embargo lifted. Not to mention I expect to see that RT score rise into Fresh status.

33%, bet it's up to 80% by midnight. Any takers?
Hurm...
07-20-2011, 11:44 AM
I wouldn't say 80% but i can see it landing in the 60-75% range. I think it will be fresh for sure, just the positive reviews have not been posted yet.

WOW, i was NOT expecting the film to have this low of a score so far. Granted its very early and it can and will change but still.....Thor and X-men both started out in the high 90% range.

@kguilou
For some reason rottentomatoes doesn't want to post all of the positive reviews. It'll eventually turn itself around hopefully.

What's this? TROLLING! Don't do it :whatever:
Anyways, it is up to 54%. We have a whole 12 reviews. This means little so far.

Yeah I'm still pretty sure it will go up to at least 80 percent

No, I posted earlier that it would reach 80% by the end of the day. I was just happy it was rising. I am a huge fan and want this movie to succeed. I want a Cap/Winter Soldier movie right after IM3 and THOR2.

My mistake. I thought you were coming in here to point out how people predicting good reviews are wrong based on the whole 13 reviews RT posted (though the film has overwhelmingly positive reviews so far).

Sounds like the consensus is the movie is a by the numbers action movie, but that's kind of what I'd expect from a director like Joe Johnston. He's not exactly known for taking huge risks as a director. The blurbs for the negative reviews seem to harp on it being part of Marvel's Avengers leadup, which isn't a bad thing.
RedSkull

fantastic summary of the reviews Amazingfantasy15 (cool user name too). That's a good way to say it.
Im sure on imdb it'll get at least a 7 if anyone gives a crap about those ratings

After the embargo you'd think there would be a rush to get the reviews up.
I just saw Entertaiment Weeky (http://www.ew.com/ew/article/1,,20483133_20483538,00.html)gave it a grade of: B
The write up is also very favorable.

Wow, what a wild Tomatometer ride this movie is getting. I honestly have no clue where it's gonna end up at this point. Right about now, I'm just gonna say 67-70%.
RedSkull
07-20-2011, 04:47 PM
Im still counting on it going up at least as high as 80
Sarafinawells
07-20-2011, 04:51 PM
lol @ 90% guesses
taking into account who the director is, track record for said director, and estimates
62%... and that's being generous

You realize there are only 21 reviews right?
That would be like me saying I was right about Thor getting 95%, yeah it had that for a little while but that was only from minimal reviews.

Well, I hope it gets at least 76%, because everyone seems to think Superman Returns is the worst film ever and that's what it got.
Dr. Sid Jawtug
07-28-2011, 02:53 PM
It's up to 77%, after worldwide release I expect it to climb near 80%.

the climb is slow but I hope it exceeds 80

It's need the next 70+ reviews to all be +. I don't think there's that many left outstanding in total. Maybe another 50-60.

85 will totally satisfy me. I'd be estatic at 90. I wish metacritic scores would go up, as they're more accurate.
