voldothegr8 08/04/17 3:16:39 PM #6:	What success, it fared pretty fucking bad for a kid flick. These articles are acting like this is the first time a review embargo has happened, far from it. Also, usually it's only the movies that studios know will get panned that get these embargos. --- Oda break tracker 2017- 6 (2) Super Mario Maker Profile: 1237-0000-0073-02FE <cite>voldothegr8 posted [p:884183560] in Media blam...

Cotton_Eye_Joe 08/05/17 10:28:47 PM #10:	This is completely idiotic. If you excited for the fucking Emoji Movie I don't think reviews were going to sway you from seeing it. I could understand something like The Mummy which a lot of people were expecting to be decent but not for something everybody expected to be trash. "What other wide release with a score under 8 percent has opened north of $20 million? I don't think there is one," I can think of two. Both from Sony.
