The trailer still seems to baffle audiences every time I see it in front of a movie. I'm banking on strong WOM to carry it. X-Men: First Class? Even a strong WOM (apparently, as I wasn't all that satisfied with the movie) didn't help there. It opened slightly better than X1, but ended up well behind it and the lowest grossing movie in the franchise.

Re: KJ's Summer Box Office Contest 2012 - NEW Well BB was a reboot that had 8 years of build-up and the franchise was ripe for rebooting after Batman & Robin. I don't feel that Spider-Man 3 was THAT bad (I liked it) and I don't think the general view on it is as negative as it was for B&R which in my opinion renders this reboot as pretty pointless. It doesn't help that the trailers don't justify the reboot too and I feel like they don't do a good job of selling the movie. The difference between the atmosphere of the previous Batman franchise was obvious when compared to BB. That's not the case here.

Re: KJ's Summer Box Office Contest 2012 - NEW Spider Man OT sucks balls.
We now have Garfield and Stone to send those movies into the never-ending depths of the bargain bin, written off as "a good try".
Or so I hope.

Re: KJ's Summer Contest 2012 - Post your Summer Predictions! I'm so tempted to go low on Prometheus. I'm dying to see it, but I believe its appeal is way more limited than the deafening Internet hype would suggest. The most recent trailer almost sells it as a straight horror movie.

Agreed, plus people might start equating it with the Alien vs. Predator movies as well.
