Schumer's an interesting case - her popularity is growing, but so is polarization. There's plenty who find her crass, unfunny, and flat out rude - especially in my area, where she has routinely treated arena staff poorly.

Re: April 20-22 Predictions
I think there are more people that hate her than like her. But she's kind of got it made and still screwing it up. She hasn't an original thought in her brain and she is doing comedy in this era where studios are throwing money at women to prove they are not run by corporate male bastards....yet she's kind of a vile horrible person.

You bring that up every time a new movie with her comes out .

Yeah, it lingers like badly burnt office popcorn.

How is that expected to you? You thought it would bomb like Sgt. Stubby. I'm surprised it showed up already. Might do 7-9 Million which would be really impressive. I do expect it to be plenty front-loaded though.
I Feel Pretty has also hit the top 5. It has 5.4% compared to Super Troopers' 8.1%. A good sign for I Feel Pretty. Will definitely beat ST2 this weekend overall.

Given the following of ST I thought fans/internet geeks would buy the tickets first and there will be much less walk-ups compared to rest of the movies. Isn't that the trend in general?

These new oversized Avengers popcorn tubs are pretty awesome - 3 flavor shakers on the outside and a pull and win game for prizes. But yikes, $14.25 is more than my movie ticket.

I wish my ticket was $14.25
How much do you pay? You in California or NY?

Re: April 20-22 Predictions
We pay the equivalent of $17 USD for an adult movie ticket here.
Though discount tickets are available to pre-purchase from workplace social clubs and other discount outlets. These are more like $10 each.
Super Troopers was quite steady at my theatre tonight. I wouldn't be surprised by a 2M preview. It could still be very frontloaded though.

She's also a huge joke thief, only reason her career wasn't destroyed from it like Carlos Mencia was liberal agenda protecting her
Yeah, that's what I was referring to when I said she hasn't an original thought in her brain. What annoys me is why don't more people know about her joke stealing? It's like people really just don't give a shit.
Most sequels to cult favorites bomb. I wonder why this will be different.
To be fair, there aren't that many sequels to cult favorites. And usually, they don't have huge budgets so it they don't do well, they still don't really "bomb". The best comp I can come up with is Clerks. Original did 3.1M on a $27K budget. 12 years later the sequel did 24M on a 5M budget.
1.35M previews is a solid number for Super Troopers. Very curious how frontloaded it will be.
