What would you expect the AVERAGE wow player clear in a raid for a season?

When it's arguable that this was just a really bad timing for a movie like this, what with three hurricanes and a horrible mass shooting, and people definitely weren't much in the mood to watch a pretty high concept science fiction movie, I wouldn't say that the movie bombed, but that people just didn't feel like going to the movies.Originally Posted by Slinkypoe
So it bombed at home.

31.5 M opening with a ~155 M budget. History repeats itself, the original bombed too.
I'd say it would've bombed had there been some other movie that absolutely crushed it in revenues. But there wasn't.
In any case, they'll get their money back eventually, no doubt. These opening weekend figures mean jack anyway. Also, isn't it the case that quite a few legendary movies had really horrible box offices, and ended up being legendary anyway.

2017-10-09, 10:20 AM #102DeletedLot's of reasons, the movie people will properly analyze this for us. I know I will love the movie, but the trailer gave me nothing and didn't invoke any Blade Runner moods. Also, I hate Jared Leto with a passion. Originally Posted by Sydänyö

Probably will attempt to watch it during the day somewhere since i'm off for work this week. No annoying kiddies and live commentaries.
As for the jared letho comments, no idea i like him in mr. nobody he has shown to act and if i had to dislike performances based on personalities i'm fairly certain half of the bands, artists and actors i like to watch would be scratched out, but it's an irrational way to go about things.

The movie was very well done. But it was a giant dick punch to K. In love with an AI that loves you back. Groovy. Wait, turns out she calls everyone Joe and she died. I was actually born, I have a soul! No some cunt just gave you a real memory, cause FUCK YOU K! Take good ol Deckard to his real child and die on the steps. The first movie was okay, but Deckard was a boring Noire detective. The best story would have come from the main replicant.

Detectives are usually the protagonists in cyberpunk stories because the role naturally lead them to investigate and get their hands dirty in the dark, corrupt places of the world. Originally Posted by Coombs

Yeah. It's a better film. Originally Posted by cyberglum
