That'd still make it far and away the most acclaimed video game movie, right?

It was a bit tongue-in-cheek, especially the part you quoted, but I was serious about hearing someone describing the plot starting to bring back bad memories about aspects I really didn't like.
I was almost at a point of forgiving the bad/bland stuff I didn't remember for the good visuals I did, but it made me remember that the first movie left a sour taste in my mouth for a while.
Star wars draws many concept from East Asia culture, and Chinese audience has seen these to dead growing up. They dont need more.
And the whole Canto Blight storyline is a stink for China's taste which hurts the franchise more.
Lol like SW isn't unique enough for them to differentiate from. That, in theory, should make the movies more interesting.. not less.
That said.. lol there is no evidence for the second part of your post. The film opened at 28M which is already bad.
Me. Not believing it until it happens. I am going to end game twice minimum.
Yup, unless I'm eyeballing the reviews completely wrong and it ends up getting 40% or something lol.
I always think he's gonna punch her in the back of the head no matter how many times I watch it loop
Maybe someone who lives in China can explain it better than me. I live in a country with some similarities in taste with China and that is the general consensus of Star Wars in my knowledge. Of course this is all anecdotal.
I keep seeing this gif in both Resetera and BOT lol
I would love to hear from people who live in China TBH, but I kinda have a feeling it's just gunna be a shrug, which is.. fair enough lol.
At least as of right now, there's really nothing in Avatar 2's vicinity that could hurt its legs. Disney has a hold on the following Wednesday (Dec. 23rd), but I could see them moving whatever they had planned there because Avatar is now their thing and they don't want to hurt it.
Booked my 3rd viewing for tomorrow at 6pm. Probably the last time I'll see it in theaters unless I just suddenly feel the urge to watch it again before it leaves theaters. But I HAVE to watch this again with another full crowd.

That's the worst possible thing you could have said to me.. I'm actually offended
More than likely. It will be pass Titanic after this weekend and be around $2.2 billion.
I think he's cranky cuz he had to wait. Though I can understand, if I couldn't see EP9 for a week I'd go mad
Don't you dare wait a week. Be a true fan. Unlike Slayven and Endgame
What's the predicted drop for 2nd weekend right now?
boxofficemojo is saying around 55%
"Records continue to fall as Disney's Avengers: Endgame makes ready for its sophomore frame. After having already topped $452 million domestically (#17 all-time) and $1.664 billion worldwide (#6 all-time), the film enters its second weekend looking to top Star Wars: The Force Awakens's $149.2 million second weekend and add that record to its list of achievements. Beyond that, the film will top $600 million domestically this weekend and has a shot at outperforming 2012's The Avengers, which brought in $623.4 million after 154 days in release — Endgame is looking to do push past that number in just ten.
As already mentioned, Star Wars: The Force Awakens currently holds the record for the largest second weekend of all-time with $149.2 million. While Avengers: Endgame destroyed Force Awakens's opening weekend by more than $100 million, Force Awakens dipped just -40% in its sophomore frame. Don't look for Endgame to follow suit, but given the sheer size of Endgame's debut, the second weekend record is certainly in jeopardy. Second on the list of largest second weekends is Avengers: Infinity War with $114.7 million, which dropped -55.5% in its second weekend and is clearly a much better comp for Endgame."

I don't know how to embed tweets so will have to share a meme instead. The tweet is real.
