Wait, something just occured to me. GotG is currently tracking at $80 million for its opening, & box office numbers tend to be $10-$20 million higher. Unless that boost was already accounted for, the opening is gonna be insane.

An August opening of 100 mil+? No way, man

I don't like being smug, but many people laughed at my prediction and I really don't like being laughed at.

So, I have this big self satisfying grin on my face.

Got my Tickets for opening night at the Arclight. Going to enjoy my movie with beer and dolby atmos baby.

 

[Neoxon]

I've already got my IMAX tickets for Thursday at 7pm, & I'll more than likely see the movie again.

 

[Dalek]

I see that it is down to 96% on rotten tomatoes because of one guy.

Winter Soldier already proved that Marvel can release a movie whenever they damn well please & still print money. If GotG is as big as these projections make it out to be......my god.

I have the printout that I can redeem for the ticket, so I should be good to go right?

I don't know if I will watch it again in theaters, I want to but i have to prepare for going back to college.

The print-out should suffice. My college is an hour away, so I'm in no big rush to prepare.

What? No way man. I mean, Winter Soldier came out in April, right? How'd they do?

Captain America: The Winter Soldier made $10.2 million in Thursday night showings, more than double the midnight gross of its predecessor.[139][140] It set an April single-day[141] ($36.9 million)[142] and April opening-weekend record ($95.0 million).

...Sweet mary mother of god.

I'm on board for $85 mil. That's a healthy increase over Bourne Ultimatum. I don't see it cracking 100 mil since Winter Soldier didn't. That being said...

i've been slacking off on studying big time.

 

[lmpaler]

My daughter and I will be seeing this Saturday. She is 6, but she wants to see it. Hopefully it keeps her entertained, I am sure I will be watching it from what I hear

Does someone have all the nay-sayer quotes ready to go for crow-eating thread?

 

[Neoxon]

We'll serve the crow at the "Summer 2014 Box Office Bomb" thread. I've already got my Chris Pratt meme.

 

[Dragonborn]

I'm really glad to see the movie doing so well. Back when it was announced, so many people jumped on Marvel, yet look at it now. This can only mean good things for other, more obscure properties. If done right, they can make money and Marvel will be more willing to take risks, which is great.

That thread looks so fucking stupid in retrospect

Is "Shut up, Kyle" one of them?

I hope the cinema is empty at 2:50, I wanna see this in peace

He's got a good point about Reilly though. It better utilize him to the fullest. No one should be "internetted" for wanting that.

Jesus.

 

[Flatline]

Bought the tickets. I'm ready. Cannot wait.

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

Is the annihilation sale on comixology a good bargain? What about the material itself?

 

[PopeReal]

I don't think anyone should, it was just a question.

And I think that point may well turn out true, I will find out later this week. But that gripe alone isn't worth a negative review, if the rest of the movie is "bloated" as he claims then fair enough.

 

[SargerusBR]

I want to believe!

Universal has Namor? :lol

Watch Lionsgate make mad cash with Man-Thing though. MCU 2.0 right there.

Those rights might actually be back at Marvel too because there was a Man-Thing namedrop on Agents of SHIELD.

Plus his wife was in Iron Man 3.

In some form...still have no idea why they used her in that role?

Been a while i didn't do that

I think Annihilation + Annihilation Conquest for $39.99?

 

[overcast]

So, does somebody have a great wallpaper for my laptop?

 

[Dabanton]

Any UK gaffers Cineworld has just opened their box office for this. I just booked 2 perfect middle seats for a friday 3D performance.

 

[Quick]

It is now thread official. I'll add more member reviews once more people have seen it.

 

[Jables Swan]

Needs more:

The film is terribly overstuffed and many of the jokes get drowned out by the special effects.

 

[Symphonic]

Needs more:

What does that even mean

Just reserved my tickets to the 7 PM Thursday Night showing, let's doooo this!

 

[Mengy]

SWEET. I now have my tickets for Thursday night at 7 PM in a Big D theater!






Now I only have to wait three more days.....

 

[number11]

Has it been confirmed if there's one or two after/mid credit scenes yet?

 

[the_firewithin]

damn where can i find this 1920x1080

 

[PhoncipleBone]

I think Annihilation + Annihilation Conquest for $39.99?

Is that just the limited series for each, or the entire run including all the other lead up series? If it includes all the other series that were part of the storylines, then BUY BUY BUY! Sweet christ, that is a good price for all that. If it is only the 6 issues series for each, then the price is not as good obviously.

I think it is cut from a larger fan poster.

 

[BigJonsson]

I used Marvel Unlimited to read Annihalation, Conquest and Guardians of the Galaxy........much cheaper than buying the trades

 

[SykoTech]

Ah, I remember back in 2011 when Ultimate Marvel 3 got leaked and nobody knew what the hell a Rocket Raccoon or Guardian of the Galaxy was.

Come a long way.

 

[Pop]

Got my tickets for the Thursday 10pm showing. Soooo hyped for this, my pants get tighter just thinking about it.

 

[BobTheFork]

"It was a fun space flick"

That's ALL we really wanted. Well, me anyways
