Does anyone really care how much money (or how little) any movie makes?
The filmmakers made the film for the audience of the series. All the negative comments will not affect whether this one was made or whether any more in the series will be made. Eventually the filmmakers will move on to a new story but will continue as long as there is a market. If you didn't like the film, why would anyone doubly waste their time (first by seeing it then taking time to rip it to shreds). Surely there must be films you'd rather rave about. If you comment positively about a film you think deserves a bigger audience, the audience is likely to find that movie and give it a chance. A negative review will not stop people from watching what they want; thankfully, most who see it and don't like it will just move on rather than boring us with what THEY think is wrong with it, which obviously is way too late to have any effect at all. When the films stop making money, they will stop making them. That is the bottom line for the production companies and no matter what anyone says they will go right on making films, so any real discussion is just so much hot air. This post is just my opinion but at least it seems much more realistic than those that whine and gripe about what the film doesn't do or doesn't have. Everyone involved with the film has their own spreadsheets to examine, and none of them factor in what anyone posts anywhere. When the day comes when you put up the millions of dollars to make a film, then complain, but when it isn't your money, nobody cares about your griping. I look forward to all positive comments and reviews about all films, but negative ones are an utter waste of time. After all, even babies can take random dumps, and nobody cares.
