I wonder if I will actually profit given these numbers? I think with good word of mouth it can.

I think BoP will have legs despite the weak opening. Word of mouth has been good, even the people in the lobby of the theater I was at who weren't there to see BoP were talking about how they want to go so see it and heard that it was good

[masterofmystery]

i think so; $80 million is a good budget and i can see it having a bit of longevity (though it's gonna have a fuckload of competition valentine's weekend)

[mehtastic]

I has a 97 million dollar budget (before tax incentives, so 84.5) but luckily only Sonic next weekend as competition, and Sonic has its own, well-known, issues. So if WOM is good enough, it might do well over the long run. But right now...not looking good :(

Is it worth it to watch it just for the Black Canary?? :)

[masterofmystery]

yeah she's pretty awesome in it

[itscaelsday]

Queen!

[kashiyaek]

Chris Messina's crazy ass had me thirsting HARD.

Saw the movie last night. It was fun. But the more I think about it the more I think it wasn't great. I enjoyed it though but the end was sorta lacking. The movie didn't really flow all that well. None of the girls really had chemistry. Idk I liked it

[masterofmystery]

my issues were similar - the ending felt abrupt as hell and it felt disjointed when it came to bringing the women together. but enjoyable all the same

[soul_amazinn]

Yeah. It was like "Let's all work together!" "OK" the end.

[scriptedending]

lol, mte re: Chris Messina. not sure that I wanna know what that says about me.

[anterrabre]

I'm not going to see this but I hope it does well.
