Hmmm, I seem to recall that when Interstellar premiered, we had all these Hollywood big shots hailing it as an absolute masterpiece on Twitter, then the actual critics and audiences saw it and it turns out the movie was just OK.

This could be the same situation here.

A lot less hyperbolic than the original impressions from the first screening of Mad Max

You'll never get bad impressions from the premiere, the atmosphere of being in a room for the first showing and with all the cast etc will mean you'll enjoy it no matter what.

This will be alright to good at best, on general consensus.
>>
>>63661596
The transformers movie all make a lot of money too. Doesnt mean theyre good
>>
>>63662000

I honestly do not expect a Phantom Menace or Attack of the Clones situation here. I believe that the movie, at worst, will be better than Episode III. I am hoping that it will be great, but I don't think that it will be terrible.

why the hell are you guys putting so much weight in early reviews?

has no one learned from the dark knight rises early 10/10 reviews?

wait until it actually hits for decent impressions

>>63661975
Why would you wish for a movie to be bad and then get upset when people say it's good?
>>
>>63662317
because its being forced down our throats at every possible chance in every possible medium.
We even have redditors here shilling a 2 hour movie for days upon days on end

>>63662317
nah, if the movie is genuinely good I won't be afraid to say it, but it's fun to shitpost either way.
>>
>>63661679
Why don't people realize this is the whole point of critics?


Professional Critics are, by nature, professional gossipers and manipulators. A single disheartening review or disgruntled tweet that angers Hollywood's elites can boot them right out of a job.

Saying Star Wars sucked, after being invited to the premier, would be career suicide.


So, yeah, I'm not sure what people actually want them to say? Just don't pay attention to them and judge the film yourself.

Give it a few days and /tv/ will be shitting on this film just like every other major blockbuster from the last 10 years.

Do you guys remember the shitstorm after TDK came out? Initially everyone here praised the shit out of it, said it was great. Wait a few days and suddenly faggots on /tv/ realizes that normal people really thought TDK was good as well, and /tv/ being the contrarian faggots they are quickly turned on TDK and started finding reasons to shit on it mercilessly.

The truth is TDK was an alright film, not brilliant, but alright. The same thing will happen with Star Wars, initially people will be hype as fuck and praise it, then the dust will settle and you guys will nitpick minor flaws. The movie itself will probably be decent overall, but /tv/ always finds a reason to go against the grain.

lmao @ taking 4chan seriously in tyool two thousand and thirteen plus two

The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood.

Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.

if it's good, /tv/ will either claim it sucks or claim to have liked it all along. if it's shit, /tv/ will split itself into "told you so" and "it's underrated" camps

because that is always what fucking happens

Eh..that's a good point. But does it matter? The only $100M,green lighted films will be "safe" films like sequels and already established franchises.


I'm sure there are a lot of good stories out there. I'm sure in your head you can imagine a good movie. But eh...it's just going to be comfortable sequels or familiar franchise from here until..who knows

Reminder that everyone "loved" Star Trek Into Darkness, despite it being the worst film I've seen in years.

And remember the early reactions to Watchmen, another mediocre-as-fuck movie?
>>
>>63665166
It wasn't the worst film but it wasn't a Star Trek movie. I know everyone hates Joss Whedon in here but I feel like he would have stayed more true to the source material then JJ who doesn't really understand what Star Trek is about.
>>
>>63665166
Into Darkness was alright.
So was TDKR for that matter.
People need to stop treating any blockbuster that's less than great as a piece of shit.
>>
>>63665482
Into Darkness was a fucking travesty and it's nothing to do with not being Star Trek. I mean, the first film wasn't really a Star Trek movie, but was perfectly competent. The second was just an awful action movie, the worst one I've seen since Alice in Wonderland. The film feels constructed between action scenes and nothing makes any real sense. It's just endless dumb, pointless, vapid action.
>>
>>63665585
No, I really fucking hated Into Darkness, it's a legitimately bad film. It made me angry after watching it. Orci and Lindehof are terrible hack writers who don't understand how to write characters or construct a story.
