Tonight"s the night.
Box office analysts are watching with keen interest. After another tepid performance last weekend from an expensive non-Marvel Disney film one analyst predicted the market is ready to "really pop and over perform for Warner Bros.' Shazam!."
do you find it even the least bit Shameful that You are actually trying to Spin Shazams Tracking/box office into HOT?
after you spent 6 months trolling on AM 2s 75 Million Opening weekend?
I get that your trolling has no limits ...
But I just find it quite odd that You somehow are trying to Make Shazam's Potential 50 Million + OW/Tracking into "HOT"....
Yet you could NOT have been more clear that AM 2's 75 Million OW was Disappointing....
These are things you really need to try to think about in the future....
Yes, Trolling on AM2 brought you some short term relief....But you should have Thought about The Future and realized that DC had an upcoming Movie coming up that now has to at Least Meet the standards you set for AM2....
You spent 6 Months trolling on AM2...
Your standards are clear....according to you...
A 75 Million Opening Weekend is disappointing
A 215 Million + domestic total is disappointing
A 620 M+ World Wide total is disappointing
A 120 Million + Profit is Disappointing....
You now basically have to Pray Shazam at Least Matches these total for you to even claim Its A disappointment....
Bottom Line...
I think This thread should be titled
"Brace for Failure"
because theres no way around it...based on your past trolling, Based on The scale you used to judge other CBM's....Shazam is about to come up drastically Short of your standards...
If AM2 was a disappointment for Opening to 75 M.....Shazam's IN YOUR OWN words has to be a failure for opening over 50 M+....
Now again I want to make it clear...I'm not calling Shazam a failure
due to Shazam's Low Budget, A 50 M+ opening is respectable and Its probably going to make a decent AM2 or less sized profit
It will be a nice little hit for WB, Fans here can claim its a hit, I can say its a hit.....Really EVERYONE BUT YOU...can claim its at least profitable and A hit...
Hilariously though, due to your pathetic trolling where you completely never considered the future...You accidental set The bar TOO HIGH for Shazam...
theres just simply no way you can claim A 50 M+ OW for Shazam is anything but a failure after the trolling you did on AM2....
PS....
Its entirely Possible Shazam may not even top AM1.
AM1 and Shazam are extremely similar....Both C and D List characters and never had a previous movie ....
of course I would say Marvel Studios and AM were behind the 8 ball a little more because Ant-Man as A characters was LESS KNOWN than Shazam...but the point is....
It will be interesting to see how Shazam Performs compared to AM1...
regardless....
you really REALLY need to think about the future before you SPITE TROLL....
by trolling on AM2 you SACRIFICED the abilty to brag about Shazam.
PSS....
care to define how big the "Impact" is going to be?
I know this is a tough one for you, but can you give specifics, what are your predictions for Shazam's box office?
when you say This is coming in HOT?
surely your expecting An Opening Weekend over 75 Million right? ....I mean, again we already know you consider a 75 Million OW disappointing, so "HOT" has to be Over 75 M right?
surely you are expecting Shazam to make over 620 Million World Wide right?
PSSS
literally chuckled out loud at you saying "one analyst predicted"
meanwhile a half a dozen others are predicting the same thing....a decent 50 M ish Opening...

lol sounds like Shazam might be headed for a opening weekend similar to that "expensive non-Marvel Disney film that had a tepid performance last weekend"
Can you two buffoons contain your foreplay to just this one thread for this movie so the rest of us can discuss the movie without your brand of asshattery?
shareThey won't. I sometimes think they are two friends who just get together to annoy people on the internet. Collusion!
sharedude....BLOCK US!
we get it...You dont like listening to us.....YOU DONT HAVE TO....
Block us!
say what you want about us, But dear god, what you are doing is worse....lol do you just enjoy BITCHING?
does it make you happy to continue to say "god you guys are annoying" Over and over and Over again...
if were really that annoying, If we really are Buffoons, If you really hate reading ours post....for the love of god save yourself the trouble of ever having to see us again and Just BLOCK US....
It would be 1 thing if we were stuck on an island and you had NO CHOICE but to listen to us....but sweet jesus this is a message board where the answer is 1 click away....
either Block Us and end your suffering
Or stop fucking Bitching because you clearly Enjoy reading ours posts...
Theres no excuse, If you dont block us, That means You are Just BITCHING because you enjoy it...You dont have to listen to us, You can easily make us go away....If you dont, Then You clearly want to read our posts and Bitch....so stop fucking acting like were bothering you...
Right on bill.
shareI'm actually going to give billbrown a compliment. He is the best poster on this board. He's wrong a LOT but he provides a lot of research and he is FUNNY.
I know he hates me but...dammit I like him and if he left these boards it would be a huge loss.
And hey bill...I hope you are getting better one day at a time after losing your father. I know it's very hard and your dog is in bad shape.
Sending positive thoughts your way.
My dog died Monday night at 4:12AM...
He made it 11 days after being diagnosed with Cancer.
The Cancer Spread to his Spine,He was on heavy pain medicine, but Late Monday, He started constantly moving and trying to reposition himself every few seconds, It was clear he was in pain and couldnt get comfortable...I tried everything I could for 2 hours to help him...Then He started Crying every time he moved and I knew it was time, I took him to the emergency vet and he was put down.
I do not feel guilty or even Bad that I put him down, It was time, I couldnt let him suffer...I'm just completely Heartbroken...I loved him so much.
I've been in the same position.
You did the right thing.
It sucks, though, I know.
Been there as well ...sending positive thoughts your way. Time heals.
sharethank you,,,I got Him when I was 17 years old...I'm now coming up on 34....
I can honestly say, I didnt now I could love something as much I loved him.
He went everywhere with him, Slept with him....I just feel lost without him...
I do have another dog, Whom I love very much, He's kinda Lost right now too...
Its Horrible losing a dog....I cried so hard the night he was put down I literally missed up my sinus, I had a headache for 4 days afterwards, and my eyes wouldnt stop watering and Nose was completely stopped up...
Hahaha...bill...this is going to debut closer to 100 million. Take that to the bank. It's domestic box office will end up much bigger than either of the Ant Man films.
shareAlmost 6 million last night, bill.
You still think this is coming in at "similar" numbers to Dumbo? Dumbo did 2.4 million. Shazam more than doubled that. Still think this is just coming in at 50 million OW?
LOLOLOLOLOLOL
P.S. I fully expect you to quickly edit and delete parts of your above post.
P.S. Yes...this is going to make a LOT more than either Ant Man movie.
P.S.S. Yes this is going to open higher than 75 million.
P.S.S.S. This had a budget of only 80 million which makes it all the more a stunning success.
P.S.S.S.S. You made a lot of embarrassing statements in your above post. I should copy them this time before you do your usual delete and edit routine.
Let's better copy yours!

No need to, ranmast.
I have NEVER deleted or went back to edit a post when it became clear my prediction was going to be wrong.
Never.
Bill Brown does. He stated during Captain Marvel's opening weekend that it would beat Wonder Woman "in every way" and he said that it was "now GURANTEED to beat WW domestically".
Well...once he saw the first Monday and Tuesday grosses had already FALLEN BELOW(LOL) Wonder Woman's I started openly laughing at him and then he deleted them and changed a couple to Aquaman instead. He then said "You need to reread my posts Queen...I never said that."
Hotter than Aquaman. Yeah right! Ha, ha,ha...
shareI'm with ranmast on this one. It's better to copy you and hold you to account as you're notoriously more wrong than BillBrown or ANYONE else on these boards. Your many, many wrong predictions and unfulfilled wishes for Disney doom and WB bloom are legendary!
[–] QueenFanUSA (1504) 2 hours agoShazam will be very successful and your attempts at tying the success to Ant-Man woefully smacks of uber-trolling for no reason. What did Ant-Man ever do to you?

I DIDN'T tie it to Ant-man...billbrown did and I was responding to him.
Read before you comment.
[–] QueenFanUSA (1506) a minute agoDo you feel BillBrown is trolling Shazam or that he is trolling YOU for trolling on Ant-Man when it came to Captain Marvel?
I didn't tie it to Ant-man...billbrown did and I was responding to that.
You truly are an idiot that thinks they are clever, aren't you?
The only person bringing up Ant-man is Bill Brown and(now strangely)...you.
I didn't "troll" Captain Marvel with Ant-man, either. I said it may do the same numbers. I said it ONCE and bill glommed onto it and has never let it go.
Why yes, I do know I am quite the clever one.
[–] QueenFanUSA (1507) 13 minutes agoYes you DID troll Captain Marvel. Let's go to the video-tape:

I didn't "troll" Captain Marvel with Ant-man, either. I said it may do the same numbers. I said it ONCE and bill glommed onto it and has never let it go.
That was the ONLY time I brought up Ant-Man and I readily admitted I was wrong during Captain Marvel's opening weekend. I also admitted I was way off on WOrldwide box office. I was right in it not matching WW domestically, though.
And geeee...why was I comparing CM to Wonder Woman in the first place? Is it not obvious?
I also admitted I was way off on WOrldwide box office. I was right in it not matching WW domestically, though.
^^
queen, have you seen Captain Marvels Hold this weekend?
Its heading for a 15 Million 30% hold for a 375 Million total...
WW's domestic total is now well within reach...Its either going to get within 5 Million of it or Pass it...
Also, as I have pointed out to billbrown(who is the person fixated on Ant-man...not me),...Shazam's bar for success and profitability is considerably lower as it's budget is only $80 or $90 million depending on the source.
Ant man 2's budget?
162 million.
^^^
queen this isnt about numbers...
this is about you trolling yourself into a corner...
The reason why I bring up AM2 is...you didnt know what Shazam's budget was when you were trolling on AM2...
You were trolling because you thought 75 Million was a Low Number...You absolutely expected Shazam to open higher than that, thats why you trolled On AM2s 75 M
Now that you can see Shazam isnt going to get close to AM2's 75 M OW...Your trying to bring Numbers/budgets into it...
the facts are You SET THE BAR by trolling...
You claimed ANY Marvel Movie should Open over 75 Million....that it should be expected.....But now your completely moving the bar because a DC film isnt getting close to that 75 Million(after you guaranteed a 75 Million opening)
If you want to desperately fall back on Shazams budget and claim its going to make a small profit, I guess thats fine, but the problem you have is...thats clearly not what you expected,predicted or guaranteed...
Like with Captain Marvel...YOU Made a Thread making your expectations CLEAR...
You expected CM to at best open to 102 M and Probably open to AM2 75 Million Numbers....these were your words, your expectations
once you put that out there, theres no spinning it...
you did the same thing here with Shazam...You made a thread titled "brace for Impact" where you claimed Hype was HOTTER than Aquaman , which clearly means you were at least expecting Shazam to top Aquamans 67 Million OW....
Then You get even more specific and guaranteed Shazam will top AM2s 75 Million OW...
I'm sorry but you cant now fall back on "well Its going to make a small profit because of the small budget" that is not what you predicted or expected...
"You didn't know Sazam's budget then "
No...but I knew AM2's budget.
That was the whole point!
If it had a 80 million dollar budget I would have said 75 million opening was fine.
queen....I'm sorry but you are coming off completely delusional....
Its over....There is no chance Shazam is coming anywhere close to a 75 Million OW....
The projections are in...Yes they could adjust...but were talking maybe 5% either way....
Projections have Shazam at 49 Million right now....
at the absolute MOST were talking they might fall 5% or go up 5%....at best Shazam is looking at a 55 Million OW....
The level of Delusion you are showing by holding out that a 75 Million Opening weekend is Possible is Literally SCARY,ODD and Most of all just SAD....
at this point there is no comparing AM2 and Shazam....Shazam is literally not even in The ball park...
I'm sorry, I know you got really excited that last few days and made some really Premature and Awful predictions...
In the span of 2 days you went from guaranteeing Shazam would open over 68 M....to Guaranteeing to would open way higher than 75 M...to Then in a truly epic fail claiming it would get Near 100 Million...
there is literally no reason for you to hold on to these fantasies...you cant WISH another 50 Million dollars into existence...I'm sorry Shazam is coming in no where close to where you expected...
stop delusionally saying and thinking "the weekend isnt over"....The Projections are in, It will come in within 5% of those projections.
lol theres no spinning this, Not when you guaranteed 75 to 100 Million and It comes in HALF of what you expected...
you remember when SOLO came out, and within 5 mins of projections, I messaged you and said, I was wrong you were right...
thats because The results were so drastically Less than I expected, There was no spinning it or defending it...
I simply took the loss and accepted it....thats where you are right now...
Shazam is coming in so Drastically Lower than you expected, You cant defend or spin it....just accept it...The movie will still turn a small profit and be a decent hit...But its no where near what you expected or predicted...
It's not me saying Ant-man was a commercial "disaster", but it IS me saying that Captain Marvel was supposed to be a MAJOR film with Marvel's first Female solo film and her critical role in Endgame. Factoring that in...yes...it would unquestionably have been deemed a major disappointment if it had only done Ant-man numbers.
shareAlso, as I have pointed out to billbrown(who is the person fixated on Ant-man...not me),...Shazam's bar for success and profitability is considerably lower as it's budget is only $80 or $90 million depending on the source.
Ant man 2's budget?
162 million.
Almost 6 million last night, bill.
You still think this is coming in at "similar" numbers to Dumbo? Dumbo did 2.4 million. Shazam more than doubled that. Still think this is just coming in at 50 million OW?
^^^
the thing that astonishes about you Most queen...
Is you never learn from Past Mistakes....how you continue to make the same mistakes TIME and TIME again and never learn stuns me...
This is at least the 6th time You PREMATURELY reacted based on early Mid night numbers...
You did it with Tomb Raider,Pacific Rim 2, and Many others...
lol here you see The Mid night numbers, and once again Prematurely jump the gun...
lol Queen, Shazam is coming right were projections had it, Between 47 and 51 M....Literally within 5% of Dumbo...
Shazam is Stunningly not even going to top AM1....
Queen Learn from Past Mistakes....Stop JUMPING The gun when you see Mid Night Numbers...
PS
Good Call On quoting that "one Box Office Analyst" that predicted Shazam to "really pop and over perform"
maybe next time you'll save yourself the embarrassment and just go with The half Dozen who correctly predicted Shazam to open between 47 to 53 Million...
PSS
Yes this is going to open higher than 75 million

You just had to make it worse for yourself....
lol Shazam heading for a 47 to 51M opening Weekend, after you guarantee it to top 75 M....
Epic fail...
This had a budget of only 80 million which makes it all the more a stunning success.
^^^^
not when you Predict it to have a 75 Million + opening weekend and claim for
6 months AM2s 75 M, 215 M+ domestic and 620 M WW totals were Disappointing...
Sorry but you trolled yourself into a corner where Shazam can ONLY be A complete FAILURE to YOU...
Shazam is set to open 25 Million dollars less than you expected....and its not even going to Match AM1 let alone AM2...
sorry, Shazam may very well make a small profit....but according to your standards you set...Its a complete failure to YOU
You made a lot of embarrassing statements in your above post. I should copy them this time before you do your usual delete and edit routine.
^^^
can you point to 1 time or 1 statement I've ever edited?
you say this a lot...but the facts are I've truly never done was you are accusing me of doing...
can you provide proof of 1 single time I've ever edited a post?
bill...you don't understand that you just undermined your whole rant by conceding Shazam's "lower budget".
BINGO!
A 75 million opening for Shazam! is a much more acceptable result because it COST SO MUCH LESS than AM2.
In fact it cost HALF AS MUCH.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
how about a 47 to 51 million opening weekend?
lol
Shazam is Heading nowhere near that 75 Million You guaranteed earlier in the thread...
in fact Shazam isnt even going to match AM1's 57 Million...forget AM2s 75 Million....
lol talk about Brace for Impact huh?
Jeez, Somehow DC wasnt even able to Match Marvels WEAKEST and LEAST Success movie/character in AM1....
that can not be The RED HOT Hype you were expecting after Aquaman?
I mean, BOTH of your Predictions failed Spectacularly here...
first you claim Shazam is coming In Hotter than Aquaman which clearly means you were predicting Shazam to at least top Aquaman's 67 Million OW...
then You PREMATURELY react to Shazam's mid night numbers and disastrously guaranteed Shazam will top 75 Million + on OW....
Man at this point, Shazam has to be considered a complete failure to you...
You were disappointed by AM2's numbers....lol Shazam isnt even going to do AM1 numbers...
How was it? Coming Hot? adjusting up up up? Closer to 100M? Really? Wow you are giving Nostradamus a run for his money...

shareIt did adjust up, up, up...and now wait for the actuals in an hour or two. They'll be adjusted up again.
And just watch this movie's legs over the coming days and weeks. What matters in the end is it's total gross.
The actuals are out and nothing is up, but your failure.
If what matters is the total gross, why are you so horny over the OW, bah, who cares... up, up, up....
