Will be interesting to see between DP2 and this, which will underperform more.

DP2. Don’t see it topping the original

Deadpool 2 is not a very good movie and Solo, apparently, is.

We all know that has nothing to do with box office. Just look at Bland Panther. The reason Deadpool 2 underperforms will not be because it's a bad movie.

Was Deadpool a good movie to begin with?

I think people consider it so.

Solo having really solid pre-sales on what is basically Star Wars day isn't the least bit surprising honestly. It's still Star Wars which is a pre-sales heavy brand anyways, but I do find the comparison to BP odd. I think RO would have been much better even if the release dates are very different.

That's a good catch. Star Wars Day would have inflated some of the ticket sales as well. I am not sure if the pre-sales numbers after that will be reported as frequently though.

You know, this isn't hard to look up. We use multipliers and critic reviews. Both were very good. Thus, the film was probably good! That's usually how it works.

Whether clowns online disagree means next to nothing. Their opinions matters to themselves, and only themselves.

You also have to look at context. Even with good reviews no one was saying that DP was a great movie at the start but its passable and has enough fun. The same most likely is being said (in a very review by TDS).

I know it's just because the internet is a troll, but the 'want to see' is at 40% on RT.

Surprised that this is at 72% on Rotten Tomatoes. Thought it would be well worse. Audience "Want to See" is at 38%, though.

Discount Tuesday is over and it's barely moving on MT.

That is absolutely a big step down for a new SW movie in the market. For such massive fan base driven movie is bad to be behind DP2. This should have crossed DP2 by Monday itself

LMAO it’s still behind Deadpool 2 on MT. It’s less than a day away from release.

Solo is finally well ahead of DP2 at MT with a substantial margin now 42.5% to 29.8%.

Was a slog getting there and that margin isn't large enough yet. This club is very much alive. Media will go bonkers if it "only" opens in the high 90s, low 100s.

If Solo misses $100 mil 3-Day, I'd say that's more embarrassing than Justice League. (Though SW is getting pretty screwed by the trump crowd, because they're all fucking idiots)

Have I missed something? What does Trump have to do with SW?

something something star wars is now catering to the "sjw" crowd and "feminists" etc etc etc

the nostalgia rules! crowd is led almost strictly by "gamergate"/"mra" types, who think everything should be how it used to be.

these people tend to think the metoo people are doing it for attention/money, they worship elon musk and rick and morty.

(these same people usually tend to lean towards DC, which is why they also led a campaign to "bring down the RT score of Black Panther!")
