X3:#1 Anticpated Movie

Whether that lasts after the news and character pics are released is another. Interest will stay high when there's a black out and people are salivating for news.

 

I think Lightning's earlier theory may indeed be working. Them not giving out much at all is creating even more anticipation than giving out a ton of stuff like Superman.

 

very cool.

 

Cool to hear. I don't understand why people want Superman and Ghost Rider to fail. I want all of them to be good ánd to do well at the BO.

 

As noted several times X3 is a sequel, it creates it's own buzz mostly because people have already seen it's predecessors(not to mention that X2 had a cliff hanger of sorts) and anxiously await the next installment(s). The same cannot be said for SR. The only ones anxiously awaiting the movie are fanboys and old movie goers. They have to get the word out and stir up some curiosity for a property that has been away from the silver screen for almost 20 years.

My point is X3 may not need the official clips and things because it wouldnt hurt it one way or the other. People are gonna go see a sequel to a movie they liked even with bad "critical" reviews.

 

No offense but it's kinda hard to take that list seriously when several of the movies on it arent even in production or going to be.

 

We'll see. Wait until tomorrow. After Superman Returns previews -- then we shall see.

Also, picking one website is high unreliable.

 

Anticipation has nothing to do with production.

 

I dont think they will fail. Even if the final result is that the mainstream audiences dont like SR, they will only decide this after going to see it.... It's Superman! The originator of the big screen comic hero success. I was just saying that they need an active promotional style. They have to get the word out that Superman has returned. Othewise, believe it or not, there are a lot of people who won't know, and would've potentially went to see it. The box office does not want that, they don't want to miss out on one red dime!

 

Rocky VI is on that list? I'd like to meet the people who are actually anticipating that film.

 

sly's mom and all her kinfolk!

 

How about Google, Firefox, Mozilla, and all the others. Not to mention AOL, Earthlink searches.


And to say that you want Superman NOT to do as good as X-Men 3 -- come on. I could care less who does better -- part of me wants X3 to be a slap in the face to Fox. However, we've discussed this ad nausem.

Superman is a much wider and caterable product than X-Men could ever hope to be. Any kid can grasp what's going on in Superman -- X-Men is more cerebral and may not be appreciated. Also, as I said, after tomorrow's Superman teaser trailer hits, I think you're going to see something very interesting begin.

Alot of people still don't know that Superman is being made. Once they find out, they will be there, in throves, lines and lines of people -- all ages. Think, X-Men doesn't cater to that older middle-aged male and female crowd as much as Superman can. People who were young with Superman The Movie came out will go and see this. Trust me, if you are banking on Superman doing worse than X3, then go cry and prepare to be dissappointed. I just don't see that happening at all.

Also, as someone said, that list is so outdated and incorrect.

Iron Man's been dropped.

Batman Year One's techincally already been made.

Rocky IV hasn't even hit production and still has a chance of never being made.

Fast and the Furious 3 hasn't started.

And Brokeback Mountain is in December of 2005, not 2006.

So yeah, reliability all the way there.

 

I think they are the same person who voted bush.

 

Deep down, I have the hope that the film does better too. My reasons? Simply because as soon as Singer jumped and went on to Superman, it seems that everyone felt this film was doomed. This is happening still. All the "Ratner's a hack" and "the writers are hacks" and "the production is rushed so it will suck".....Deep down, I want this film to prove people wrong, to prove that despite all the roadblocks and problems the film had getting off the ground, those who made it and those who were in it managed to pull it off.

 

When will people get the clue that Singer NEVER JUMPED SHIP! Fox FIRED him. Rothman and Singer did not get along. Singer wanted to the X-film now! Rothman wanted to delay and was dicking Singer around -- Singer had to be escorted off the Fox Studio lot, and then allowed back in to work on Fox's "House" pilot.

Seriously, get the facts straight.

 

X3 will lose it's pole position in a matter of days. Superman Returns AKA Red Sun will leap to No.1 after the trailer premieres this week.

 

That's not entirely true Bosef. There was a lot more to that situation than what you alluded to above. Bryan had already made certain alliances prior to leaving.
