Errr.. At least TJ has Deadpool 2 and Ready Player One in his future. Oh wait IMDb says he role in Deadpool 2 is (rumored) Cue to the fourth wall jokes in Deadpool: Deadpool: Calm down Colossus, I'll get Xavier's money back with interest. Colossus: This is not possible Wade, how did you manage to waste $50 million in one weekend? Weasel: Its easier than you think...

Let's just look past the awful premise, and the awful scores... The first thing that jumps out to me whenever I see a commercial for it, I can't get over how cheap it looks... like a bad straight to discount DVD knockoff.
Like there was an M&M's commercial right after one of these, and the M&M's are animated much much better.

And suddenly, drinking champagne out of a Formula 1 driver's sweaty race boot isn't the dumbest thing Patrick Stewart's done this year.

I was secretly hoping it would somehow be a critical and commercial success with a billion in the box office and a 100% score on rotten tomatoes. 0% is the second best thing

Honestly, the more I read up about how bad it is, with a ton of product placement and a premise clearly ripped from other animated films, I'm starting to wonder if this entire thing was a blatant cash-grab with no real intent to make a decent product.

This shit was a bomb on paper and behold it's just as disappointing in the box office.

I just keep getting angrier and angrier that this flaming turd robbed us of Genndy Tartakovsky's Popeye.

The Emoji Movie: not only is it so terrible that it's ok to be on your phone through the whole movie, you'll probably get the full experience of the movie by doing that anyway!

Does this mean that Sony will continue their stranglehold on the Spider-Man movie rights?

I find it funny Reddit is begging people not to watch this film...if it's a success, I've really lost all hope in the normal consumer. If it fails, it might make Sony re-evaluate its entire game plan. And if that includes scrapping/changing Venom, I'm all for it being a failure.

I'm guessing the opening weekend is going to be solid but nothing special, but it'll have a massive second weekend drop and bomb internationally.

Given recent history it would not shock me if this is successful.

Doesn't even come out in Australia until mid-September, suffice to say it's not going to be a success here if there's already been almost two months of negative opinions about it.
