This is a very simple important piece as to how it performed on opening weekend, I think. The strike ended, what, the day before release. None of the leads could do any promotion for it at all in the months leading up to the release. That’s a LOT of marketing that simply didn’t happen.

Re: The Marvels
While the marketing for these movies are vital, they released the trailer with very little fanfare or not at all. Loki didnt have any marketing too and its been praised as a good show.wease wrote:This is a very simple important piece as to how it performed on opening weekend, I think.

Re: The Marvels
And it can be both, but it's hard to tell if people are tired of superhero movies if they haven't been shown a good one in a while.BurtReynolds wrote:I hadn't seen one since Thor, until these miscreants bullied me into watching this yesterday.tree_ wrote:Wait, are you actually watching these movies?
