Did bad word of mouth spread last week because of it?

That's the only way I see it changing things.

I think this opening is soft because they bet the bank on Ultron, and didn't focus on the fun of the Avengers in the advertising. They want too far down the DC/serious path, imo.

  - I feel like most people are going to be having this conversation by 2017. "Wanna go see the Marvel movie?" "Oh God, is there already another one?" -- nm - David May 3, 10:46 14
