Wow, incredible for WONDR. {nm} -JPV- Jun 10, 06:14

MUMY4 down to 17% on RT with 183 reviews and only a 46% Audience score. What a disaster to launch the Dark U. {nm} tomcat90 Jun 10, 06:18

Critics hating it is one thing... but the audience? Yikes. {nm} -JPV- Jun 10, 07:13

Mummy is another baywatch, a commercial disaster {nm} JonH Jun 10, 07:24

And Baywatch had a 65% audience score {nm} tomcat90 Jun 10, 08:00

D cinemascore for itcnt. we see so many of these uncommercial horror films go wide and die. will they ever learn or islander Jun 10, 07:49

I don't think it's greed. It's a good model and they really believe in this film. {nm} Moviesnob Jun 10, 07:58

they had no one in their whole studio who thought "you know im not sure people will like this"? {nm} islander Jun 10, 08:01

The witch was a c-. They had a good Idea how this would play out to mainstream audiences. {nm} Moviesnob Jun 10, 08:06

I don't think they are trying to sucker people it's just not a movie for everyone. It's niche. But sometimes the upside for niche Moviesnob Jun 10, 08:17

good points of course. but does making many moviegoers mad (and lets face it, a D means some people came out of that theater pissed ;) to islander Jun 10, 08:29

Well, most folks don't know studios and if you look at this and the witch and it follows, the good word of mouth is driving more than the Moviesnob Jun 10, 08:41

CinemaScore: MUMY4 B-, ITCNT D- {nm} -JPV- Jun 10, 08:12

Sorry, didn't see it posted and was D instead of D- for ITCNT. Apologies, not that it's a big difference, lol. {nm} -JPV- Jun 10, 08:13
