81.3% drop congratulations Joker 2 you broke the record for the biggest 2nd weekend drop of all time for a #1 opener 🥳 long held by FT13th of 80.4%.
Brainiac5000 on
I think we can go lower
SanderSo47 on
A 81.3% drop. And remember that WB massively overestimated the opening weekend. So beating *Gigli* (81.9%) is still possible. Nevertheless, it already has the worst second weekend drop for a comic book title.
This also pretty much kills its chances at hitting $60 million lifetime. Unbelievable.
LMAAAOOOOO they’re claiming it beat Beetlejuice Beetlejuice by only $5k that’s a fudge if I’ve ever seen one
newjackgmoney21 on
Only, update I was waiting for, lol. WB once again with the fudge. It’ll be under 7m when actuals come out.
It’ll lose all PLFs next weekend plus whatever theaters drop it. Another 70% drop next weekend.

Safe to say that the actuals will be below $7 million tomorrow. Is anyone keeping a list of all the records Folie à Deux has broken being a catastrophic disaster?

Time to Old Yeller this movie and yank it from theaters.
nicolasb51942003 on
* Received the worse Cinemascore for a comic book film and for a film that costs $200M with a D.
* It suffered the biggest second weekend drop for a number one opener and for any film from the major studios that opened in over 3000 theaters.
* It’s about to make less than freakin’ Paul Blart 2.
This film is the perfect definition of a film getting flat out rejected. It gets what it fucking deserves.
That number is already bad enough on its own, but you just know it’s going to go even lower when the actuals are revealed.

Joker looking at the Marvels (-78%) and Flash (-73%) second weekend drop:
Block-Busted on
Frankly, I don’t feel sorry for this film at all. This was such a mean-spirited film to sit through. I know that I’m practically spamming now, but to reiterate what I’ve been saying… this was BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD! It was bleak for the sake of being bleak, it was cynical for the sake of being cynical, it was mean-spirited for the sake of being mean-spirited, it was extremely pretentious, and biggest of all, it was blatantly made out of contempt towards the source material, its predecessor, fans of the first film, and so on. In fact, this film is basically **Fant4stic** with legit production values in ways that this DID have some redeeming qualities like cinematography, production values, actings, and so on. Also, that ending was just lazy and abysmal.
And I mean every word when I said that this was **Fant4stic** with legit production values. Why? Because it was also BOOOOOOOOOORIIIIIIIIIIIIIING. It was almost entirely set in a prison, asylum, or courtroom and it was almost entirely about one talking after another. And if you guys were hoping to see great musical sequences, I’m sorry, but it doesn’t have any. Most of the musical numbers are rather static with not a whole lot of dancing. In fact, I have no idea what Todd Phillips was even doing with this film because he tried to do a lot of things with this and didn’t really succeed in any of them.
So yeah, I have no idea why this is the film that needed $190 million to make. In fact, I now have even more examples that shows just how horrendous this film’s budget management truly is – and this time, I’m extending this from 2022 to 2024:

Sure, many of these films are not very good and some of them are downright train wrecks, but you could actually tell why they needed that money money to work on. I cannot find a single reason why this one needed such a huge budget.
And you might’ve heard that horror story about the implied rape scene. Unfortunately, it’s all true – and the more I think of it, the more I feel like that scene is even worse than people think. Now, I could be reading too much into this and I don’t think this was Todd Phillips’ intention, but the way it was executed felt like the film was sending a disgusting message that one of the best ways to “correct” someone is to rape that someone!
Did Phillips even think through that scene at all? Did he not stop and consider that such scene could end up sending a horrendous moral by accident? I cannot believe that I’m about to say this, but I think that scene is actually even more off-putting than THAT scene in **Wonder Woman 1984**!
Seriously, say what you will about **Megalopolis** and Francis Ford Coppola as a person, but you can at least tell that there was a legit passion behind it AND it was obviously NOT a product of contempt. I can easily picture people enjoying that in ironic fashion while I cannot say the same for this. Also, on a different note, I’ll easily watch **The Marvels** over this any day. Why? Because that film was, you know, fun and breezy – and that’s actually a legit compliment of mine.
So yeah, I cannot recommend this film even as a joke – and no, despite 54 minutes of IMAX scenes, this did NOT feel like it warranted an IMAX release AT ALL. In fact, while this is my conjecture, I told cinema employees just how bad it was (no, I made it clear that I do NOT put the blame on them) and even they felt like they wanted to get rid of this film fast and if so, I actually agree with them. In fact, can we get **The Wild Robot** back? Because that film turned out be IMAX-heavy and had a pretty big drop for an animated film because it lost all of its IMAX screenings to this piece of shit. In fact, it is time, folks. The time has come to commence #RobotChallenge, in which we boycott this vile piece of shit and support wholesome and sincere masterpiece that is **The Wild Robot** or fun and action-packed blockbuster that is **Transformers One**.
Seriously, when **Deadpool** trilogy is far, Far, FAR more wholesome and sincere than your film, then you have no excuse.
