What the fuck. It bombed so bad it’s already availed to rent? Hahah

I want to fuck her so bad

Hold on your vagin-ACK

I just watched it yesterday and it’s really good. Don’t know why it flopped

no third megan

His show got canceled though.

I enjoyed this and everyone I know who saw it enjoyed it.

the only people who don't like m3gan and/or m3gan 2.0 are people who haven't watched it

It is good. Monday morning quarterbacks would say the timing is wrong, releasing the movie in the middle of summer blockbuster season. But there's a world where a mid budget crowd pleasing horror movie with a recognizable main character could do very well in the Summer for anyone looking for an alternative to family friendly blockbusters.


Which ultimately leads to the criticism that this is more of a family friendly action film than a horror movie...which is fair. But it is a good movie regardless. And honestly, following the Terminator trajectory of action horror--> sci fi action for the sequel isn't a terrible idea, it just didn't work financially with this movie.

>>212871329
Just finished and we liked it even more than the first one. Maybe it didn't do well due to it being less horror and more an action flick with two robots fighting. It's ridiculous and campy, so we had quite a few laughs like with the Steven Seagal references and M3gan singing that Kate Bush song.

Yeah, the "world" was decades ago.

My friends daughter was really into the first M3gan. I imagine there's a lot of kids who were. Let them grow up a bit and drop the R rated sequel down the line, it'll do great

>>212871409
sure, but according to fiona dourif the ratings were good and he's got seven movies and another one in production

>>212871619
Problem is they over estimated how popular M3gan was, or in this case wasn’t. First was a success solely because it came out when there was nothing out and a stupid TikTok dance. Only very popular character can genre swap. Freddy, Jason, Chucky, The Terminator. It would be like genre swapping Annabell

(((They))) lost (((their))) ass on this one, but both films are still ahead in profit by $53.5 mil, plus any post release earnings via various TV / streaming deals (((they're))) going to make.

>>212871852
M3GAN will probably still get a third movie based on streaming and bluray sales.
The second movie was more than double the budget of the first, but that's still only 25 million.

They catered to the homosexuals unfortunately... Homosexuals are shallow and pedantic. They pretend they like things for social points and they do not support these things. They only support lady gaga.

>>212871677
Isn't Final Destination Bloodlines one of the highest grossing films this year with a May release? And I Know What You Did Last Sunmer reboot just came out, we'll see how that does, but I can see it doing well.

Also those Conjuring and Insidious movies have Summer releases and do great. Again, obviously it didn't work for M3gan, but it's not like it never works. Talk To Me and Longlegs also had July release dates and did way better than anyone would think. If they flopped, people would say it's because they released in Summer, but since they did well, no one brings the release date up

>>212871873
>do well with first movie
>double the budget for second one for absolutely no reason whatsoever
>it bombs
many such cases
but really, why the hell are they always like this? why do they insist on throwing money around without a need?

>>212872103
None of those movies hinge on a marquee horror character, except Longlegs, in theory
though one of the biggest complaints about that movie was that Cage wasn't in it enough
And you'd have to cross reference what they opened against, M3GAN 2 was up against F1. And most, if not all the movies you listed were from the corona years for example.
Final Destination 6 is also a nostalgia pull, that would be doing much better if it came out in January, too. Probably would've turned Nosferatu into a flop. I think also M3GAN 2 would've beaten Nosferatu if they hit at the same time, but that had no competition at all.

another flop? damn, theyre goig out of business it seems

Could it be that M3gan was actually a simulation as part of the AI Concept?

>>212871619
IT's a faggot movie for xanax addicted zoomers who watch tiktok 12 hours a day. We wanted cyberpunk Child's Play, not homosexuals talking about "serving cunt". Get fucked. Fuck you. Faggot.

>>212872880
>we wanted cyberpunk child's play
no
we wanted more M3GAN and Cady
we got it

>>212872936
Faggot pedophile. We were promisedd violent horror with the first film, then the gays, you disgusting faggots, and tiktok users discovered it, and they dropped any plans of it being a horror film in favor of that stupid fucking dance, and disco music.

Kill yourself, before I find you and do it for you.

>>212872880
This. AI aint Christian and neither was this flick.

>Robot doll singing the entire film
>Not going absolute skynet on mother fuckers and slaughtering everything that threatens her

Fag movie. Pedo bait.

>>212872880
The reason it bombed is because for some dumbass reason they made Megan "lgbt," bullshit. She literally posted in character how she 'saw them,' and wanted them to 'stay slaying.' It was pathetic.

Honestly all they had to do was keep her nonsexual to any gender and do a pinocchio storyline where the series finale was her turning real and finally being adopted and having a real family and sister. Instead we get
>I'm a faggot AI program!

>>212873031
Chucky, with Skynet programming. That's what we were supposed to get. it's in the original script. Instead, we got a fucking low budget, straight to streaming piece of shit that'll be aired on LOGO until that network is finally shut off.

Fuck these movies and everyone who enjoys them.

Yeah, it is really good. I think it was a bad release window tbqh.

>In a post-mortem interview with the podcast The Town that just released today, Jason Blum shares his surprisingly honest thoughts about the box office failure of M3GAN 2.0, which Blumhouse was at point expecting to debut with upwards of $45 million. That tracking number went further and further down as the weeks went on, with the film ultimately debuting to a fraction of those early hopes. Blum admits, “We all thought M3GAN was like Superman. We could do anything to her. We could change genres. We could put her in the summer. We could make her look different. We could turn her from a bad guy into a good guy. And we kind of classically over thought how powerful people’s engagement was really with her.”

What were they thinking?

If something fails at the BO, it is just another opportunity to shitpost about a movie they haven't seen, whether or not it is good or bad. It doesn't mean anything more than that.

>>212872974
>We were promisedd violent horror

You know the original, wildly financially successful movie was PG13 right? This is Blumslop, not Terrifyer

>>212870907 (OP)
Universal has a contract with the theatres that if their movies opens to <$50 million, they can dump it onto digital rental/"purchase" after 17 days.

It's okay, really predictable and I miss the horror tone of the first movie. This is just T2 for girls.

>>212870907 (OP)
I saw the trailer for 2 and even knowing nothing about the first movie I wondered what the fuck were they thinking.

How will this impact Violet's career? She seemed genuinely excited about this movie and is even still doing interviews about it.

>>212870907 (OP)
they fucked up making her older.
it was fresh seeing a loli killer robot, instead of the usual adult robot.

>>212877641
she'll move in with Amie and be her live-in girlfriend while Amie continues to do stunt work

>>212871329
Marketing was weak and released next to multiple big blockbusters
Studio seems to think it was the genre change that did them in though.

>>212877689
They're going to build an irl M3GAN and take their revenge on all the execs who sabotaged the movie franchise.

>>212877779
unrated version of the first movie was worse lol, they added a bit of blood, but they murdered the elevator kill.
instead of the fag trying to fight back and still getting murdered, he just sits there looking as she slashes his neck in the shittiest way, it barely does a tiny cut on his neck.

>>212878006
yeah but they also added a giant blood smear to the kid getting run over and that was hilarious

Cady was such a brat, i love her

>>212877689
When did things get so bad
I see girls pull this shit when there's literally no camera around, when the environment and circumstances are the most antithetical. I've seen girls bust suggestive poses and sexual moves as if they're filming tiktoks for invisible phones/cameras in the hospital, in the airport at 06:00 while waiting for their bags, waiting for the bus under the scorching sun, waiting in cashier lines etc.
And it's always fucking teenies, it's never young adults or zoomer sluts who do this shit. It's the little kids, often dressed like whores with mommy's approval(lives vicariously through her daughters), who do this shit.

>>212878288
I want the third one purely because they'd probably ramp up the obvious lust Cady has for M3GAN

>pedo waifu bait shit
James Wan really fell off after The Conjuring

>>212878307
They do it bc you exemplify what they wanted and you provided several times apparently: attention

>>212878316
Nah I'm happy if they're just besties. It was strangely sweet when Junkyard M3GAN was showing Cady her new room and all its toys. I don't want them to ruin it with lesbian pandering.

>>212878412
?
How mentally ill are you?

>>212878490
well given the timeline, Cady's gonna be college-aged most likely if they do make a third one, she's not going to need a babysitter as much as maybe a bodyguard if they contrive some plot about Cady inventing something that might make her a target in some way
at that point it would be adult Cady and probably adult M3GAN because they'd want to use Amie again
adult women friendship is boring, they'd need to kiss

>>212878598
Not at all, it's a you issue that you're trying to overcompensate by feigning outrage. Your own comment is self-descriptive: you keep ogling, they keep prancing around

>>212878288
2 kino 4 /tv/

>>212878641
>adult women friendship is boring
Throw a guy in the mix and you'll see the pettiest backstabbing imaginable, it's the opposite of boring. Besides they don't have to go straight to college, the Cady actress still looks 14. That being said I don't think we'll get any more movies seeing this one is a flop. I'm fine with that though, a killer loli robot having a T1 to T2 journey is enough for me.

>>212871329
I'm am adult male 39 and I loved Megan 1 for free on my pc but I dont wanna be seen watching this shit in a movie theater alone. I'm betting thats half the reason is bombed.

Nothing to be embarrassed about anon. Everyone knew who was watching that movie

I can't think of a worse idea.

>>212870907 (OP)
Does it have a lot of Violet Mcgraw in it?

>>212879387
Yes.

>>212878897
They should have leaned more on Cady's judo

>>212879387
The movie pivots a lot into the aunt, but there's a quite a few cute moments with Veevs

They should have never made a second. The 1st was an unironic decent movie that even I whought would be bad but it was ok. They should have stopped right there, take the win and go make something else.

>>212878839
It's a reasonable concern, but I got over it and watched it in theaters. Don't regret it.

>>212878897
It took me a minute it to get it too, kek. Very memorable line though.

>>212879419
What a cutie

>>212879747
This scene didn't look real at all, but they did have Amie doing it for real, so maybe they just used her for mo-cap and animated over it completely because they needed it to be super fast.
One of the biggest flaws of the movie is that M3GAN looked way more fake than in the first.

>>212879932
Ok buying the Blu-ray for the behind the scenes

>>212879998
That's from her IG, but they will hopefully have BTS stuff on the bluray.

>>212879932
>animated over it completely

that's too expensive, this is still a low-ish budget movie. The cheaper solution is to use a different stuntperson, or just speed up the frame like a kung fu movie would do (which is what they're referencing to anyway)

>>212879932
I really don't want to shitpost when I say the original M3gan was one of the most impressive special effects I've ever seen in a movie
I know it's such a small relatively unremarkable low budget feature but the fact that she's always onscreen and always feels more tangible than characters that get heavily circlejerked like Gollum or Neytiri

Whatever the fuck that magic was it's baffling that they lost it in M3gan 2.0

small wonder

>>212880119
nigga please: >>212880187

>>212880226
then they sped up the frames. Look at the webm >>212879747
at 0:11, look at the guy in the background, he's moving a bit faster than usual

>>212880187
How do I get beat up like this?

>>212880153
This is the problem, I think.
They had Amie in a green-man suit instead of regular clothes, so M3GAN's outfits were I guess potentially never actually real in the second movie.
And besides that, they clearly went overboard with the post-effect facial animations. In the first movie M3GAN's face moved like a doll's face would, in 2.0 they animated her like a cartoon character.

>>212870907 (OP)
does she show her little robo vag in this cut?

>>212878872
I'd rather imagine you dying

>>212877641
She'll be fine, everyone knows it's not her fault. The director will take the fall.

>>212870907 (OP)
they completely changed genres from a horror movie to a weird adventure movie
dafuk?

>>212880560
the first movie was not a horror movie at all

>>212871951
There's nothing homosexual in the movie, there are multiple heterosexual things
