Spoke too soon about DC >>> Marvel? Going "PC" is what's bold. {nm}

Posted by: Antibody on Feb 07, 08:32 in response to VictorY's post Meh. If the film is bold and doesn't go the PC route...

DL: GOTCS $4-5 million Thursday previews Gleemonex Feb 06, 19:40

I knew the trades were to high. My guess of an opening around Ocean 8's .42m {nm} jamesbik333 Feb 07, 04:43

Might be to high. {nm} jamesbik333 Feb 07, 04:46

yep, unfortunately {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 07:30

Get Woke Go Reasonably Profitable? {nm} notfabio Feb 07, 08:19

Nice joke, you friendly bloke, can i interest you in some artichoke? {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 08:31

We definitely need more words that rhyme with woke. {nm} notfabio Feb 07, 08:33

I'm having a stroke from going broke from doing too much coke! {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 08:43

McGregor’s woke, did serve to poke, some knuckle-dragging folk? {nm} RattyBatty Feb 07, 09:08

He sounds like a nice bloke. {nm} HurricaneKid Feb 07, 10:44

Meh. If the film is bold and doesn't go the PC route (which doesn't fit Quinn's character appeal), it will succeed off word of mouth. {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:22

If they make Quinn PC, the film will be a disaster. Literally the entie Spring box office frame hinges on this. {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:40

If? What trailers have you been watching? WB hired a female director. Quinn dumped Joker and formed a girl gang. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 08:42

None of those are PC, "Wonder Woman" had an awesome female director and the film wasn't even close to PC (and my favorite for 2017) VictorY Feb 07, 08:47

That's your opinion. A "PC" or woke Quinn, is one made with the female gaze rather than the typical male gaze. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 08:53

This is why Captain Marvel will never break $400m! {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:04

God you're something else. I never predicted it wouldn't.. I pointed out that "if" it didn't, it'd be a bad record to have. In fact: VictorY Feb 07, 09:08

How's your portfolio. clinger? Is it too woke? {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 07, 09:14

want a cookie? {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:16

Right now, we have a weird world where "Captain Marvel" has a higher Rotten critic rating than "Joker," and Joker leads in Oscar noms VictorY Feb 07, 09:21

Audiences liked CAPTAIN MARVEL more than JOKER {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:25

I thought you said Rotten's audience ratings weren't accurate? And were spiked. Hench why I focus on the critics. Did you change your mind? {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 09:27

I'm not looking at Rotten Tomatoes for anything {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:30

(Face palm) Then nevermind. We're not even talking the same thing. {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 09:31

What was Captain Marvel's Cinemascore grade? {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 07, 09:33

A vs B+ for JOKER {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:36

I'm talking about reality and actual data! {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:35

CMARV outgrossed JOKER. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 09:40

You literally spent months arguing that Captain Marvel was responsible for other films crashing... and DC was going to save the industry. {nm} HurricaneKid Feb 07, 10:47

It'll be interesting to see what kind of legs it has, it has one of the weakest February - March slates ever to go up against notfabio Feb 07, 08:47

Ah very good. Spot on. BOP's appeal for me was always the lack of competition follwoing it. BUT, that's only if the film is good and non-PC {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:49

RT score of 88%. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 08:51

That's positive, but I remind you the critics completely missed on "Joker" {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:52

Personally the ad campaign turned me off and I generally like these kind of movies? {nm} notfabio Feb 07, 08:50

The trailers are not as strong as Joker, will need huge WOM {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:51

I'm a DC fan, but not in a rush to see this one tbh. {nm} ~JPV~ Feb 07, 11:12

The marketing campaign for this was horrendous. WB/DC, would it have killed you to put out a Red Band trailer?!?!?! {nm} HurricaneKid Feb 07, 12:33
