Grown men arguing about superheroes and other grown men taking time out of their day to watch said argument is where it's at in 2022

This is assuming we are all grown men

People still watch Netflix??...in 2022?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Where else am I supposed to repeatedly binge watch The Office, Parks & Rec & Schitts Creek before bed?!

Wonder if Black Adam is getting decent audience scores cos all the indifferent people that would be critical just haven't bothered. This is the first superhero film in years I haven't gone to see at the cinema on a two for one night or something at the very least.

Parks & Rec

Actually that's a lie - Stringer spoiled Morbius for me so I never ended up going to see that

Based on what I have read,seen and heard, BA's box office failings are mainly due to the quality of the movie and DC's reputation. Possibly in the following proportions:

DC's current rep:30%
Quality of the movie: 50%
Other factors: 20%
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Even though the general audience rating on all mainstream review sites to this point are at very worst respectable and at best highly positive for this movie.

It's worst rating is a 6.8/10 on IMDb. Metacritic general audience review gives it 7.3/10 and Google reviews give it an average 8.8/10 general audience score.

So you'll have to show me where you're seeing all these poor general audience reviews you keep alluding to for this movie because I've yet to see them anywhere.

All you've done is produce some links to a few critics reviews. We already know it wasn't reviewed well by critics but that isn't what we've been talking about. We're talking about general audience reaction and reviews.

You can't gauge general audience reaction to a movie by critic reviews, they're often world's apart. None of your links work btw.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've given you a mix of critic and general reviews.

IGN review was done by the senior editor of the site. He's not a movie critic.

Cinemablend review was done by the assistant managing editor of the site. He's not a movie critic.

Den of Geek review was done by an entertainment journalist. He's not a movie critic.


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Also most critics are fans of movies, that's why they write about movies for a living.

Looks like Ultron may be returning in live action at some point, possibly in Armor Wars or Vision Quest.

I have little to no interest in seeing it and find the sort of partisan attitude over movie studios kinda boring. I am not going to defend a movie just because it's DC and I like DC more than marvel.

It looked naff and its box office and critic scores vindicate my scepticism.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You did call it. I think I was a little more optimistic than you were. I think you said it wouldn’t do 500 Milly.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
What were your predictions? How many Milly String?

For Black Adam before release I said 600 Milly.

This looks good:
