NWH may not be a masterpiece but it's a good movie.

When movies get released, the first waive of watchers will review, spoil and rate it to those who haven't seen it. If it's bad, then number of the next waive of watchers get reduced and so on. This is irrespective of the marketing strategies. It's the reason why we check ratings before watching a movie, the reason for a thread like this.

A lot of people just want to enjoy and unwind at the theater. Give them a fairly decent movie and they will watch even with plot holes.

Ever wonder why people still watch Bollywood, even nollywood? We just want entertainment.



True...
That's why I can still watch average or even lame movies...
It's just 2 hours...even if it has mediocre plot


It's when it comes to series that I won't watch anything that isn't either a masterpiece or is very good

Goes deeper to where? What determines the success?

Dude is talking about arthouse projects


An art film (or art house film) is typically an independent film, aimed at a niche market rather than a mass market audience.[1] It is "intended to be a serious, artistic work, often experimental and not designed for mass appeal",[2] "made primarily for aesthetic reasons rather than commercial profit",[3] and contains "unconventional or highly symbolic content".[4]

If he was talking about arthouse projects, he should specify that. Oscar bait movies are judged by the awards they're nominated for and win, after all. But majority of movies are commercial at the end of the day. So making a statement like "A film is not judged by its box office performance" and then failing to specify what it's supposed to be judged by, is a moot point.

They are afraid it would flop , it's a gamble Sha. And finding the right actor won't be easy I would recommend Jared Butler as kratos bcus of his role as leonaidas in 300 but dude is too old now .. and only an idiot would recommend Dwayne Johnson grin

Who wouldn't be afraid of it flopping. It's a video game adaptation after all. And they're the most risky business in Hollywood. It's only in the last 4yrs that video game movies have been performing decently in the box office and reviews.

Presently, only streamers like Netflix and Amazon are the ones with the funds to produce a budget intensive adaptation as risky as God of War. That movie or even series will need nothing less than $180mn for production.

Nah, Disney lost the rights. Its a public domain character now. Anyone can adapt it now. Same as Pinnochio which Guillermo Del Toro is directing, set to release later this year. Same as last year's Cinderella.

No, I don't think so.
Apparently flash ran to some universe or timeline and found her. There is also a scene of the flash conversing with himself. Maybe after everything the flash will go back to his normal timeline and everything will go back to normal.
