Have sex

>going out to the movies at 11:20pm on Friday
what the fuck, don’t you guys work on Friday?

Isn't 10pm prime time for movies? Why is it so fucking empty in the theaters?

I hardly do anything anymore because im a 37 year old boomer but ten years ago I almost always say a movie Friday night

Excuse. Everyone keeps suggesting I should have sex. I’d like to very much.

Can someone recommend where sex can be found in the easiest way?

dis guy doesn't go out much does he. I go to the late night showing of premiers which are usually on Thursday not friday. Every Marvel movie I've gone to on a Thursday opening night (9pm/11pm/12am) showings has been packed. Even Antman 2. I have never seen so many empty seats for a late night premier.

Disney through NGOs mass buy tickers online.

Wtf?

They're still playing Alita? And why is Robert's co-worker making fun of Captain Marve?

FIRE HIM!!!

I work 8-5 m-f like a responsible adult. male

10pm is prime after dinner movie time, usually packed

Disney bought a shit ton of tickets from themselves to make it look like it had a better box office on premier night, falsely believing enough people would actually go to see the movie that it wouldn't be suspicious.

why is he 2+ hrs early???

If you watch captain marvel, a random gypsy will spawn to your bed

>Durkadurka
There's no fucking way that name is real

>walk into empty theater
>take picture
>post online saying it's for CM
Yeah I'm sure an opening weekend MCU movie is being shown only in that small ass theater. Meanwhile, several doors down it's actually full up on the bigger screens. is there really any length you guys won't go to?

I work weekdays, 9 to 5, like most people. I've gone to 11:20 PM shows on Fridays and yeah they were packed or nearly packed. I think you're confusing AM and PM. 11:20 PM at night, 40 minutes before midnight.

time is a feminist construct meant to restrain the power of the white male to construct his own reality

False alarm, guys! Empty theaters are apparently a GOOD thing

Looks like they finna bout to slaw

Empty theaters are nice for the one or two people in the otherwise empty theater. Sucks for the people who made the movie and the theater who are losing out money.

They actually started the controversy back after the very first trailer was released..

That whole "she doesn't smile" bullshit that made headlines and was caused by incel trolls?

Apparently in the movie there's a scene where a man on a motorcycle says to Brie "give me a smile hunnie" that was confirmed to not be a reshoot.

The "Brie doesn't smile" trolling was Marvel. They created the faux outrage.

My movie theater had maybe 20 people in it for a 2:30 showing.

Here is what's going on:


I'll make it very simple and clear: Captain Marvel is really worth a watch. It's just entertaining and visually impressive, exactly what it was meant to be.

Just keep this in mind that it's an origin story so don't go looking for an overstuffed complex story. It's just a fun action movie that introduces us to a new superhero Captain Marvel, played brilliantly by Brie Larson. I became an instant fan watching her in this action heroine avatar, something she manages to pull off with ease. Watch her in the action sequences and there's no way you can't be impressed. Viewers were literally cheering for some of the most heroic moments in the film. Samuel L Jackson as Nick Fury is as awesome as always, it's just that his character feels even better and refined than what we've seen. Jude Law is also quite good, and so are Ben Mendelsohn and Lashana Lynch.

But the one character that ultimately steals the show is Goose, the cat. Some of the sequences involving her are so hilarious that it was really difficult to stop laughing.

Visual effects are excellent, and the IMAX 3D viewing just elevated them. And since it's most importantly an action movie, every single action sequence it delivers is impressive, especially the train sequence. I would call it one of the major highlights of the movie. Cinematography in certain portions is really impressive. Humor, like any other MCU movie, is top notch and really manages to make you laugh.


They even used the same words!!

This whole thread is cope because the critics didn't hate it enough and it's making too much money already. OP is S E E T H I N G which is why all these screenshots are 2hrs behind the posts. OP is some CA beaner who's posting these.

Looks like a Cinemark. I love how they designed their recliner rows, it really isolates you from anyone not in your row and lets everyone only focus on the movie.

Any movie theater without stadium recliners is garbage.

what fucking theater do you go to that has showings at 2am

No. 7:00 PM, 7:30 PM, 8:00 PM and 8:30 PM are the key slots. 9:00 PM and 9:30 PM are still good, but anything after 9:45 PM is pretty much dead zones that only really popular movies are able to take advantage of. Once 10:00 PM hits, that's when staff gets chopped in half and all that's left is a skeleton crew.

I remember the Prequels being fucking jammed all day. There's no way they cleared out that fast.

Theatres don't play movies at 2:30 am you absolute retard.

This is prime time, no? 6pm to midnight is where the theaters are supposed to be the most packed?

How is this movie making $150M+ domestically for the opening weekend when virtually EVERY theater is empty, but reporting that they are selling out?

Just where IS everybody? Where is the money and sold out tickets coming from?

Attached: empty.png (1366x768, 853K)

Alita is playing at least through next Thursday, probably a week after that too. There's really no other big blockbusters coming to kick it out yet.

20 people, that's a yikes from me then

Being alone in a theater is an experience. It can be creepy at first, but then it's just your own private screening.

THIS!

4pm is empty, 6pm is empty, 8pm is empty, 10pm is empty, midnight is empty. There has NEVER been a movie in the history of the universe that has sold out a theater during those times. During the first day of release. Literally never.

The only time a movie has sold out is on 7:47pm and 32 seconds on the 17th hour of the release date in my theater and nowhere else sorry no pictures.

>subtle Yang posting

this is getting out of hand.

That’s because people actually liked the prequels and then it became a meme to hate on them . Now they are once again being seen for the pure enjoyment they really were.

Everything will be made clear next week. The mouse has a huge pull on this shit, and Opening weekend is a big deal. Disney wants the narrative that Captain Marvel "triumphed" over the bad incels, convincing the normies the movie is good and lead into positive feeling going into Endgame, and beyond.

If it underperformed this weekend, all their plans would've gone up in smoke. Their willing to risk a big drop off for the opening weekend buzz.

This.

Yeah, but those theaters aren't just "Not sold out", they're literally the exact OPPOSITE of "sold out"

They're... Sold in? Bought out? No.
What do you call it when every seat is still available?

*They're willing to risk a big drop

A lot of Captain Marvel's marketing and promotion was soliciting tickets for tree. To colleges, to American Eagle, and likely tons of other places. They probably gave out hundreds of thousands if not millions of free tickets, and Disney can likely claim that as box office even if they paid for it themselves.

yes every threater in the world is empty. just like last week disney forced all the theaters to show only CM in every threater in the world. now everyone is seeing all the movies that disney forced theaters to not show. and disney bought their own tickets to those empty theaters. because giant corporations hate money. and then they paid their direct competition to shill CM on their review site. and then they paid all the reviewers for positive reviews. and then they paid Yea Forums for me to make this post. because that's the kind of cold, impersonal, business decisions that Disney is famous for. Not making any money but paying off everyone to say they are. I bet you have a copy of "The Art of the Deal" on your nightstand.

Marvel over-booked screening rooms to reduce competition. That is why so many are empty.

tricked hard
cope harder

Yes, this. These numbers are faked

If Disney is actually buying out their own theaters out, how many are they actually buying out?

Will Saturday be empty? Sunday too? The rest of the week?

This too. My local 20-screen cinema has 22 regular showtimes. That's fucking insane when most blockbusters, even Infinity War and Star Wars tend to get more like 15 with all formats included.

>Not making any money but paying off everyone to say they are.

Captain Marvel isn’t about making money, it’s about shilling a political / social agenda.

Would Disney like to make a ton of money off the flick? Sure, but they knew going in that this man-hating feminazi flick wasn’t going to appeal to the overwhelmingly White male fanbase, (and womyn and minorities have never given a shit about capeshit) so they’re willing to take a loss as long as they can get the message out.

It's propaganda, profit doesn't facto into the equation.

You guys know that they can go to literally any other movie and claim that it's Captain Marvel right?

>Everything will be made clear next week. The mouse has a huge pull on this shit, and Opening weekend is a big deal.

Tiny Hitler makes me laugh everytime.

corporate executives have a legal, fiduciary duty to make money for the company. they can be removed for making decisions that result in a loss of money for a company. you don't know shit about business you moron.

Nah, that's modern art. This is more just taking a massive financial hit because they want to enact social changes, which benefits them in the long run.

But modern art is money laundering, when you have a piece of garbage worth tens of millions made by a living artist that's a literal who.

Any GOOD version of Cap would have some thoughtful and nuanced thing to say about any one of those signs being held up behind him.
But these people HATE nuance.
Nuance makes you an "apologist", which is a "Borderline-racist/sexist/whatever", which is just as bad as BEING a "racist/sexist/whatever".

Go ahead and prove the corporate executives of Disney _purposely_ chose politics over profit.

You can’t, Disney can simply tell the investors the movie wasn’t as successful as expected.

I'm not saying they necessarily ARE putting politics over their responsibilities, but lrn2Plausible Deniability. Cuz that's what you have when ever ad agency on earth is telling people that, "The future is woke".

Where are the pictures of PACKED theaters?

Why do so many people insist on believing that;

A. Hollywood is a meritocracy where only the smart and talented are successful.
B. Hollywood doesn’t have a political / social agenda.

Disney and the investors in Captain Marvel literally and truly believe in the SJW message the movie is promoting.

They may be disappointed that the movie didn’t make a shit load of money but they knew going in that this was likely to be the case, as they had ample evidence from the Star Wars flicks that the mostly White male fan base has no interest in being lectured by some cunty feminazi, yet the made the movie ANYWAYS.

Surely a corporation full of smart and talented people would have learned from its mistakes and made adjustments but they didn’t, in fact Disney doubled-down on the SJW feminism for Captain Marvel.

The _only_ conclusion one can reach from this, is that they don’t care if they lose money on the movie as long as the political message is promoted.

Some trannies are subtle.

>The _only_ conclusion one can reach from this, is that they don’t care if they lose money on the movie as long as the political message is promoted.

I hear that Brie Larson has signed a contract to appear in seven movies as Captain Marvel so not caring about losing money on this movie is mostly likely them trying to maintain good first impressions because if this movie flops then the future installments involving Captain Marvel will.

Why do you insist own believing that you are a significant portion of the market? Or that companies should only pander to you? Or that the agendas you hate sell better than the ones you like?

Imagine there's two people who work for the SJW agenda. But one truly believes in it on its own merits. The other makes money off it. They both promote it, spend money on it, and bolster it. The result is the same, regardless of who "truly" believes in it. Pretending to care is caring.

Stop acting like sucking /pol/'s dick gives you some incredible political insight. You get off on thinking you're one of the few who confront uncomfortable truths about society but it's just you hiding from the truth. The truth is that they want to appeal to women and minorities. The truth is that 2/21 of these movies have black or female lead, and white men still reign supreme. So all this hand wringing you're doing is pointless. But if the company appeals more and more to other groups in the future, that's the fucking point of capitalism. If there's a market, a product will be made to deliver it. That's what this country is founded on and it's how the economy is supposed to work. You're just mad that it's not working in your favor. Grow up already and get on board. You can't keep coasting on memes from /pol/ your whole life.

>Why do you insist own believing that you are a significant portion of the market?
Why are the theaters empty?

How can a movie from the most famous franchise have no viewers on a Friday night?
Most people only can about entrainment and not the politics underneath it
They see a movie is being played, they go "wanna check it out?"
It's not like they're watching interviews and all that shit before, they don't do research
How come no one just bought a ticket by chance?

Now? Just fucking put a bullet in it and put it out of its misery

I'm guessing it's because there were a lot of showings and people just went through different times of the day filling less rooms. But wouldn't that fuck up movie theaters?

Psychology.

Even if they make people believe they succeeded when they didn't they still lose money. That would be dumb. Pretty sur eif this movie doesn't at least make 700M it's going to piss off the Mouse.

Well he's a an old school leftist in the comics (grew up poor during the depression, his favorite President is Roosevelt, he participated in the Federal Art Project) but I doubt he would be a current year leftist.

They've got 6 more movies coming for this franchise

Making shit up so it looks popular at the start could trick a fuckton of people and make them even more money down the line

People who made the movie can all get fucked, however people running the theater get unfairly screwed. They don't get to control what the movies are like, they just show them and hope they're popular.

That pic you posted was from a comic where she's trying to deflect Cap confronting her because of her alcoholism, it's why Scarlet Witch is surprised by her bullshit.

In other words Carol scuks.

Boasting to get investors.
They tryhard to get this diversity shit self-sustaining.

Because women don't like capeshit, even if you turn it into #GrrrlPower propaganda. They keep tweeting about YAAS KWEEN SLAY but at the end of the day they don't go watch the movie. It's the same shit that happened with comics. They brought in a bunch of leftist writers to subvert most of their biggest characters and turn them into fags and empowered feminists to please the Tumblr audience, and as a result their sales plummeted and the CEO resigned because at the end of the day the Tumblr audience was never an audience at all.
At least with niggers you can make the argument that there is a market to tap into. Black Panther was a success because niggers are weebs at heart and they actually enjoy anime and capeshit, so there is an incentive in pandering to them.

It’s really really bad.

Fungus toe to foot fags is like force feeding bacon to Muslims. Means nothing to us but means a whole lot to them.

>The truth is that they want to appeal to women and minorities.
That’s fine, as long as they don’t alienate their core audience.
>The truth is that 2/21 of these movies have black or female lead, and white men still reign supreme.
This has to be a troll. The objection isn’t to women or minority leads, people like Blade and Alita, it’s the marxist Mary Sue characters.

Don’t assume the core audience is in the bag and start chasing new customers at their expense.

so easily lead around by the nose

It's a tax loophole

I live in Shenzhen, theaters are packed here

It's an old trick to save poor received products, distributors buys stocks of them, or in this case lots of tickets, to manipulate the selling stats in order to lure those customers who rely on them, statistically a good percentage of these people will give a positive opinion on the product; this kind of strategy is used in movie industry to recover the production costs, budget and promotion, and to make a decent cash with the home video release.

I ordered tickets online yesterday. Like 75% of the seats were taken, but when I got there it was like 50 people tops in a theater with 250 seats.
Is Disney buying up their own tickets to avoid the embarrassment?

Rent free.

Sold the tickets for food.

>be black
>be poor
>can't afford food or clothing
>Black Panther sends them to see a movie instead

Same thing for these girls.

I'm thinking it's an investment since it's said that Brie signed for 7 movies. Buying some of those tickets to make it appear good would provide payoff for the other 6 movies.

How are Chinese reacting in social media?

Feet are disgusting. So when your feet are so disgusting not even fetishists want them, it says something. Makes you wonder what her pussy situation is like.

*ignores 10% sold theaters 10 minutes before the movie pictures*

epic, shill

This isn't just a singular film they can throw away if it bombs. They NEED Captain Marvel to be, or at least be perceived as a success, since it'll be an integral part of the Avengers.

There is no fucking doubt in my mind that they would be willing to lose money on this to push it as a success, because they'll make a hundred times more back later. It's business 101.

What the hell is with this empty theaters thing. I realise that the movie lost some potential viewers with all the racism and feminism but its still marvel movie with massive marketing. How the fuck is it that no one wants to see it

They don't actually buy the seats. They just pay the journalists to generously inflate their box office opening weekend earnings reports in clickbait articles to drive hype and make people who haven't seen the movie feel like they're missing out because the movie is seemingly so popular (but in reality it's not, as evidenced by the "trolls" protesting on youtube and rotten tomatoes etc).

Off dummies that think
>well, if it made that much, then it must be alright

Are you retarded? Do you think there is a non-zero chance that endgame will make less than a billion in sales?

I think they don't like it. Lackluster or something.

Brie Larson emanates anti charisma

there's quite a bit of people out there who stay up very late on Fridays since they get off that day and have no work the next day, I don't see that as a good excuse

I'm talking about what happens after endgame, you mouthbreathing nit.

They've already confirmed that they're in the planning stages of some 20 new films. If it isn't extremely fucking obvious to you that they are planning to build the Avengers around Captain Marvel, you might be in need of some help that only professionals can provide.

I saw the 3rd resident evil movie on it's last day in the theatre. I thought they wouldn't even let me in since I was a kid but when I got in I saw I was the only one in there. Comfiest movie going experience i ever had.

>they just pay the journalists to generously inflate the box office weekend reports
investors who expect the weekend reports to be accurate but then read the quarterly reports to see that they aren't accurate WILL ALSO SELL the stock

You lot will go on and on about Disney does this and how Disney does that but clearly they don't do any of it if it has never shown up in their earnings reports because their liabilities match their assets and their net revenue doesn't fucking budge.

>Imagine actually thinking that Disney is buying up all the seats as if a fucking 100 million dollar increase in operations or whatever on the quarterly report is just going to not trigger investors

>Imagine

It's not the first time a movie has been hardcore shilled to save face. I remember being here around the time The Last Jedi was released and the damage control was off the chart. It is well known that Yea Forums is one of thee places for real dissent and the MCU is one of the sacred cows of Disney. It matters, see video.

youtube.com/watch?v=PX1fCBhuhU4

It's hilarious to watch you incel manbaby white misogynists try to damage control now that the movie is headed for $180 million domestic opening weekend (EXACTLY WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY PREDICTED.)

Ethan Van Scriver and Comicsgate and all you losers who said it was only going to make $80 million (LMAO!!) are literally committing suicide right now because women won the MCU. Where you at World Shit Bullclassers and Umbrella Man and Quarter Pounder and Chicken Flash? We women are waiting for our apology.

There are no empty theaters. Every showing from 4pm through midnight today was sold out at my local theater. 24 screens total. Even the early matinees were more than half full. Everyone is seeing this movie.

If there was an empty theater somewhere in America it was either because a bus crashed or a wedding party got canceled. I guarantee you every one of those tickets sold. Everyone is seeing this movie.

>going to a movie theater in 2019

what the hell could you even possibly be going to see? there hasn't been a good movie made in decades

t.seething tranny

People who have billions of dollars invested in Disney are the types of people who know that millions of idiots will pay to go see a movie just because they think it's successful because they don't want to miss out. They know not to trust the box office figures reported in the press because they control the fucking press.

> Why do you insist own believing that you are a significant portion of the market?

Because White males ARE the significant portion of the capeshit market, this isn’t debatable.

> Or that companies should only pander to you?

I was addressing the claim that Disney / Marvel (and Hollywood in general) are wholly concerned about making a profit but if that were the case, they wouldn’t have made a movie that’s literally designed to piss off their primary customer base, all the more so after the back-lash that resulted from the feminization of Star Wars.

> Or that the agendas you hate sell better than the ones you like?

Except everything we’re seeing says the agenda Disney is shilling with Captain Marvel _isn’t_ selling better; obviously paid off movie critics, censoring Rotten Tomatoes, empty movie theaters, YouTube manipulation to suppress negative vids, etc.

If Captain Marvel was such a success, none of this would be happening and I’ll point out that Wonder Woman managed to appeal to chicks without pissing off guys.

Yea Forums alt-right incels BTFO again

>ComScore/Screen Engine’s PostTrak shows that 23% of the audience bought their tickets more than a week ago, while Captain Marvel is drawing 55% in walk-up business. More than half of all movegoers came to Captain Marvel because it’s part of a franchise they love.

>#Fail for ultra right-wingers’ bogus and ignorant call for an #AlitaChallenge this weekend (the pic is -55% in weekend 4 with $3.2M in 5th place), which has nothing to do with their love for the James Cameron produced/Robert Rodriguez film, rather their blase social media attempt to draw business away from Captain Marvel. Not only do they fail to recognize that that Alita is a film about a lower-class uprising, sticking it to the man; but also any future money from the movie belongs to Disney. By the way some of those raising ire over Captain Marvel are the same stone-throwers that got James Gunn fired off Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. The masses clearly aren’t swayed by such ugly noise, and point in fact, most Marvel movies (Captain America: Civil War, Black Panther) have a political undertone, which is what makes them smart and great and enables the comic book studio to win over critics, in addition to delivering popcorn adrenaline.

Why do people post on twitter if they are not a celebrity or an organisation. Who reads the posts. It's not a novelty thing anymore.

Cope harder femcel

Can it really be considered a hit if Disney themselves bought all the tickets?

Disney has fucking vaults of cash. They can lose a billion here and there. What really fucks them is if they look like they're losing money, especially with things that absolutely should not be failing. That's when investors jump ship, movie crews want to work with other studios, companies reject buyouts, and so on.

even normies are getting bored of capeshit plus of course the noass disaster

Do you honestly believe that Disney bought 150 million dollars in tickets without anyone finding out?

Unless you shut down the entire theatre your costs are practically fixed from day to day (as you can adjust staffing levels upwards for the periods where lots of people show up like saturday night, sunday etc), so you might as well put sessions on the list and attempt to make money.
If one person shows up to an otherwise empty theatre that's still probably enough money to pay for the electricity for that specific showing of the movie.

Me too, back in the good old days... Also your trips never would have gone unchecked 10 years ago

>More than half of all movegoers came to Captain Marvel because it’s part of a franchise they love.

This is just a straight-up lie, as Captain Marvel has NEVER been a popular franchise even with hard-core comics fans, (let alone normies who weren't even aware of the character until the movie came out) as evidenced by the perennially shitty comic sales and Marvel's continual re-booting of the series in an attempt to drum up some kinda interest.

There's nothing inherently wrong with that, early cinema was filled with cartoon/superhero double features. The difference is going to see Flash Gordon/Donald Duck didn't cost you fifteen dollars a pop.

>How's the movie designed to piss off the primary customer base?

Have you been living under a rock?

Not everyone takes a photo of the movie they're watching like you, you huge fucking faggot.

This is getting really pathetic.

Yes, because that is their agenda. If this movie is SAID to have sold well, the other 6 films featuring Marvel will also sell well.

Usually friday is way more "cinema day" than saturday so if friday night has gone pretty much empty i'd expect saturday will be even worse.

I'm not saying it, just pointing out that "boomers" aren't the issue here.

How does that prove that Disney is buying out theaters rather then local businesses promoting themselves through movies?

Why do you post on 4channel?

Not to mention Disney setting up shell companies to “buy” tickets from Disney, which then counts that as “profit” for the parent corporation and come tax time when the shell company shows a huge loss, Disney gets a tax break writing them off as a loss.

It’s a win-win situation and they pulled the same shit with Black Panther.

Sure, but they're implying people are going to Captain Marvel because she's a such a great character.

Is that good or bad? It doesn't sound like a lot.

So people are putting up shots of empty theatres on twitter. Screens are blank with nothing else to indicate it's actually a screening of the movie in question other than their say so? Ooh, sounds real legit there.

Wow kill yourself you fuckin drone

But I cannot wrap my mind around who would read all that crap...most tweets aren't probably eveen from close friends

All the other posters are correct. Also Disney is counting on word-of-sales for lack of a better term. They think people care about box office numbers so much that if they hear a movie has sold well they will want to see it too.

You realize small towns are the ones that constantly sell out theaters? Big cities are where you should expect most empty/half-filled theaters should be.

They signed this boring bitch for 7 movies. If the first fails they are fucked. Spend 100 million buying tickets, another 100 million on feminists to write articles about how evil white men are. Boom, 5 billion the next 7 movies.

There is, and many at that despite it being screened like crazy, at weekends, and everything. Screens on 200-400+ seats with only 5-10 bought, even though it's starting in a few minutes, is normal. Even IMAX struggling to be half-full.

Absolutely subarashii.

Anybody else starting to get pro captain marvel videos in their YouTube recommended list? They seem to removed all the negative one I was watching.

>Confirmation bias

I've been following the seat reservation for the biggest theater in Oslo, the epicenter of feminism in Norway, since the opening. See And like I said there, I actually went to see it yesterday, with a whole two other people in the theater. I haven't seen anything like it before. Even Solo sold out at least 70% of the seats in this theater during the opening weekend.

>with a whole two other people in the theater

And might I add, when I booked the ticket online, there were about 15 other reservations. I wonder where all those people went, since they sure as fuck didn't watch the movie.

If you add up seats globally, that's probably half a million in inflated sales.

I'm not surprised. There's nothing else that's playing at the movie cinema. Based on what I've heard it mediocre, and every actor is good except for Brie

Humans are social creatures. Our genes are dead-set to make us wanna share experiences and stories. Communication, and the wisdom and information transfered with it, increases our chances of survival. Not just for us, but virtually all mammals on this planet. Communication means life.

My point is: Like our instincts for food, shelter or procreation, we have a strong urge for socializing, too. And like those other instincts, people who know what they're doing can very, very easily tap into our urges and manipulate us. Social Media was cleverly designed for exactly that reason, because they know that 99.99% of the "normie" dumbdumbs will fall for it and give in to their base needs to share their every opinion and thought they have about everything. Something that used to be much more privated and confined to a small group of people (like family or friends), can now VERY easily be shared with millions of people.

You.

Yes, you. The one screaming, "Brie Larson is toxic" and "Her movie is shit!" and other slurs I dare not mention. Tread lightly.

You are one. We are hundreds, thousands. Millions. You aren't just IN the minority; you ARE the minority.

I don't feel awkward or anxious going to watch Captain Marvel at least five times around others, and your words don't affect me. Many others, however, are coming out of their shells for the first time in their lives. This is the first time many are enjoying the beautiful movie that has been made for us - and it IS powerful. Incredibly so. DON'T ruin this for them. We Captain Marvel fans may have our differences, but we will not hesitate to come to the aid of our fellow fans, especially against someone who so virulently slurs that which has brought us all together.

Don't take this the wrong way. I don't hate you. I don't fear you.

I pity you.

I'm sorry that you feel this way towards us. I'm sorry that Captain Marvel and Brie are such a bane to your existence. And I'm sorry that you are missing out on such a wonderful experience. Mostly, though, I'm sorry that you feel the need to go around and publicly chastise and berate others. I'm sorry that, to ensure your own validity, you need to make others feel invalid. I'm sorry that your self-worth is so infinitesimally miniscule that you have to make others feel less-than-human, at least in your own denatured mind, just to feel whole. I am truly sorry that day-in and day-out you have to put up with your worthless, meaningless, Shakespearean tragedy of a life.

I ask you politely to cease your unnecessary cries for attention, and instead invite you to join our ranks. Stop watching porn and anime, go to cinema to watch Captain Marvel, and breathe in the splendour and the amazement of this movie, and then, maybe, just maybe, you'll see what you've been so hopelessly searching for this whole time.................

I'm sure there were some "reputable" agencies that put such numbers but later "revisited" them. But even if not, 160 is pretty much in the same "over the top" projection category.

Weren't those for the weekend? The weekend has just started.

We'll see, though lack of any hype, bad scores across the net and empty theaters saying that if even they manage to manipulate box office numbers, it will be a biggest flop ever afterward.
