Whenever I see that these movies are successful I'm always wondering who's seeing them? Myself and a few friends all attend movies regularly and none of us even know anyone who saw the second one in theaters. Like I'm sure people are going, it's just weird.
I went to see the second one purely because I wanted to see the pretty CGI world, I didn't expect too much from the plot. No disappointment there.
I may yet do the same with the third one. I'm also not expecting too much from the plot there. I just want to see cool CGI and fancy world-building. It's entertaining in its own way and best seen on the big screen.
It's not the people who see it once out of curiosity that cause these huge numbers.
It's the people who see it three times in one week.
Oh yeah never doing that with any movie lol
I saw Titanic three times in theaters. With three different girls.
