Is it evil of me, that I get a delicious feeling of 'shadenfruede' watching him getting hoisted on his own petard? lol!t:

Not at all. I laughed at him too. This thread is a lot more peaceful when he's not posting. Tobias and his endless debates sent this thread into ruins.

His posts almost made me convert to alcoholism.

It's funny how most of the conservative posts here regarding the BO numbers were flamed initially, yet have been proven to be the most accurate. And guess what? Those posters still get flamed.

Posters once saying that $700 WW is the absolute floor and that 900 is more realistic are now saying "600 WW what a huge success!!!"

No. Not really.

 

[TheNextNolan22]

Well...damn.

Straight edge!

I agree. Expectations were enormously high given that Nolan was producing and frankly because comic book movies had been well received lately. I mean good grief, Captain America and Thor were solid films and received great reviews. Now you take an icon like Superman, match him up with TDK creators, give it a great budget and promise dynamite action....who wouldn't expect the movie to take off?

But poor WOM and bad reviews can hurt a film. I think what we're seeing for the most part is that there is huge interest in the character. People were going to go see this movie no matter what. But poor WOM prevented some repeat business. Its not only critics who didn't like the film, a lot of fans and moviegoers felt the same way.

OMG. Common sense and perception we have no place for you here. MoS is the greatest movie everrrr, it'll make 3 billion $$ if not for the haters like RT who are obviously corrupt. The WoM is perfect anyone who disagrees is wrong, 100% of my theatre stood and applauded at my showing.

It's one of the reasons that I couldn't stay away from this thread. It was (his posts) like looking at a car wreck, where you can't take your eyes off of it, even though you know it would be better to avert your eyes!

The numbers for China have finally come in. As of June 30, MOS has made an impressive 47.22M. Compare this to the 48M TASM made in its entire China run.

Others are taking his place.

The reincarnation of Tobias?

And I'm very pleased with those China numbers. t:

Well to be fair, ASM had a crummy release date in China on the same day as TDKR.

Is it too late to predict $1 Trillion...domestic?

Hello.

 

[CConn]

Hah. You're a good mod.

 

[Princess Denise]

Beautiful.

YEP TASM made an impressive 490M OS and MOS has had a better OW in about 19 of the 46 countries that have reported. MOS will certainly bypass TASM in the Domestic total and it will be real interesting to see how it compares to TASM OS when all is said and done.

Hello.

Hey

 

[Mysteryman]

I think Wolverine comes out July 26 but I have very little interest in it.

How is Wolverine tracking?

I was not a big fan of TASM
But even I felt bad for them on that day .

I'm not being pessimistic to say that a movie to which only 56% of the critics liked had bad reviews. I'd just consider you an extreme optimist and a bit naive.

I guess you've never heard the saying before then.

I saw a ton of reviews online that were positive that weren't even counted in the RT reviews. It's not accurate.
