Superman Returns We don't like how this movie is looking (merged)

I thought I should just point out that, as of right now, The Da Vinci Code is flopping.

http://movies.yahoo.com/mv/news/ap/20060517/114787788000.html

It has a 0% rotten at rottentomatos.

I don't know what the general public will think, but if all these critics said that Da Vinci will rule this summer and Superman will suck...well, perhaps we shouldn't take it quite so seriously until the movie is actually seen.
 
the only reason Da vinci code is getting all this press is because the book is very good..doesn't mean the general public will love it in movie form.

riiiiiiggghht...

...the general public's love for the Hulk can't compare to the general public's love for Superman. bad comparison...
 
I like to think the public loved the Tv series of the HULK..the movie wasn't that.

IMO the jury is still out..to fans..this is amazing to see..to the public..its just another superman movie.

Hey Robo, I would like to know your predictions for SR and POTC2 :)

Superman is way bigger than the Hulk Matt. Let's face reality all right. And Superman will not be as complicated and pshychological as the Hulk was. You know a Supe fan once told me that Superman punched the Hulk all the way into space. In the same way Superman will punch it's way though to 450 mi. + thus reclaiming it's spot as the #1 superhero movie of all-time. Up, Up and Away!!!

It looks like SR will rule and DVC will suck. Intersting.

I have the same feeling about POTC2. It can be disappointment.

I will agree with you, my friend.
 
SUPERMAN = One of the MOST recognized symbols in the WOLRD.

One of the MOST recognized symbols in the WOLRD = Big $$.

Everybody on the planet knows about Superman, and I think that nearly everybody will see the movie. To this day the 1978 is till known, and this film, whether good or bad, should not be any different. It's SUPERMAN, for God's sake.

Will it break Spidey's opening weekend record? I doubt it (with the escalating ticket prices). But, and especially if the new trailer is great, it WILL do well.

Like spideymusprime said, the box office intake for SR is going Up, Up, and Away!

Well, at least I have stats that support my conclusion that POTC2 could underperform. Similar sequels following super blockbusters have done the same.

I'm not sure yet about SR. He is the biggest superhero of all time. Last two movies were disgusting. It's been 25+ years since a good Superman movie.

We have no idea how this movie will do. There are no similar movies that I can compare it to say exactly how he will do.

People are just grabbing BB as their only source, but I just can't compare it to BB.

BB was the 5th Batman movie in 16 years. (since original Batman in 1989).

BB was a dark movie. After opening poorly it went all the way to $200 million.

WHY?

FANS seeing movie over, and over, and over.

If SR opens big, and fans watch this movie over, and over, and over.

We might see history here.

IT ALL DEPENDS ON THE QUALITY OF THE MOVIE.
 
i don't need stats my friend..he asked for my opinion.. you sound quite rude and pompus.

235 is way too low. Are you kidding me? Returns will open to at least 100 million on it's opening weekend thus creating lots of hype. It's a family movie and that's the kind of movie people want to see in the summer. 20 year wait for Supes fans, one of the most anticipated movies of all time and you're saying it will gross only 235. Come on.

Lets not go there..... Oscar nominations may appear for SFX...... but none of these movies PotC, Da Vinchi, X3 are going to have Accademy members looking at the acting and saying.... WOW.. I nominate him






There was some fanatasticacting by Liam and Bale in beginns






and many thought nominations would come
 
they will push this movie more as june comes around.....

personally i think the reason for not puhing it sooner is the WB has sank too much into this and is hurting fiancially
 
hey i'm no expert..

some people really need to step back here..none of us are experts..

People expect from POTC2 more than it will be. They will be disappointed and that is why this film can have no legs.

People dont expect something big from SR, but they will be sureprised.

Critics are also wrong. They said DVC will rule and now they hate it.

And they said SR will suck, but then they will like it.
 
yeah well Posideon isn't helping thier pocket books right now that for sure!
