why they declare movies successful or flops so early during their runs.

1.31K views

It seems like even before the first weekend is over, all the box office analysts have already declared the success or failure of the movie. I know personally, I don’t see a movie until the end of the run, so I don’t have to deal with huge crowds and lines and bad seats, it’s safe to say that nearly everyone I know follows suit. Doesn’t the entire run – including theater receipts, pay per view, home media sales, etc. – have to be considered for that hit or flop call is made? If not, why?

Someone gets paid to work it out and give us their opinion,they’re often very wrong and a lot of the time it seems they didn’t watch the same film the avearge user watched. Not in a sense it’s any different of a film, but more the eyes of the beholder type thing. Critics should be taken with a pinch of salt. It’s just egos all the way down, i personally have never not enjoyed any film I’ve watched, I can find value in most films.
