[QUOTE="CleverNickName, post: 8980154, member: 50987"] On Reddit, there is a group of people who are very upset about how well this movie is performing, and they are holding up [I]John Wick 4[/I] as some kind of benchmark for box office success. They say things like "it's not doing as good as [I]John Wick[/I] so it's pretty much a flop." They're weirdly insistent, too: if [I]D&D:HAT[/I] outperforms [I]JW4[/I] on opening weekend, they will say "well it won't outperform the [I]total[/I] box office so it flopped." And if it does, they will say "well it won't outperform [I]worldwide[/I] sales, so it flopped." And if it does they'll probably say "well it didn't outperform sales [I]in Cambodia, for the week of April 11, for matinee audiences[/I], so it flopped." For whatever reason, I get the feeling they [I]need [/I]this movie to flop, and are using JW4 to "prove" that it already has. I didn't really care much about [I]John Wick Chapter 4[/I]; I don't watch a lot of sequels (much less sequels of sequels of sequels). But now, I'd truly like to see [I]D&D:HAT[/I] outperform [I]JW4 [/I]over the next few days in all categories...only so I could watch those loudmouths on Reddit eat crow. Oh Internet, you rascal.
