We should really be done talking about this - Summary - Bad movie didn't make money
but this review was super funny, so I am linking to it. Don't want to read the whole thing? The excerpt sums it up - "Even if you’re a die-hard fan of the comics, I’m hesitant to say wait for it on Netflix. Which brings me to another point, Joey Esposito over at IGN Comics agrees this movie isn’t that good, but still thinks it’s awesome because fans are finally seeing a Green Lantern movie anyway. Are you kidding me? That’s how these studios win. When you just lie down and go, “At least I get to see some dickhead dressed up like my favorite superhero,” that’s how we end up with movies based on board games and basically anything with brand recognition, so just assume breakfast cereals are next." http://www.thesuperficial.com/green-lantern-review-06-2011 -----Original Message----- From: Van <[email protected]> To: The Unique Geek <[email protected]> Sent: Mon, Jun 20, 2011 2:48 pm Subject: [The Unique Geek] Re: Superhero box office chart omeone mentioned the fact that RottenTomatoes only gives up/down umbers, and that's a good point. When I was reading the THOR eviews, they were mostly net-positive (thus it was up around 80% ositive), but a LOT of those reviews were very borderline, just arely tilting over to positive. For GL, it was sort of the opposite. So I got the sense that a lot of the reviewers were sort of 51/49% ositive on THOR, and about 45/55% negative on GL. Not a huge ifference, but it resulted in the overall numbers being like 80% for hor and 20% for GL. --Van -- ou received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The nique Geek" group. o post to this group, send email to [email protected]. o unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. or more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/theuniquegeek?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Unique Geek" group.
