Most of the reviews I’ve watched have all seemed to like it. Chris Stuckmann, John Flickinger (The Flick Pick), Dan Murrell, and IGN all gave it favorable reviews. Jeremy Jahns seemed a bit more mixed but I think overall still liked it. The common thing I’ve heard is that the effects are really pretty shoddy.

I want to see this and couldn't care less if reviews were 0/10. I will review it myself. =)

I’m seeing it regardless too but I do like to hear some positive thoughts from reviewers I enjoy watching. Going Thursday night for sure.

Maybe he has finally got his shit together.

Anyway, still looking forward to this despite the early negative reviews. It really surprises me as the trailers look great (to me).

I will see this in the theater for sure but if it really does stink, unless "Spider-Man" is in the title, this may be my last super-hero movie in the theater for awhile. Both Spider-Man: No Way Home and the new Spider-Verse movie truly delivered. Those are the only super-hero movies that did not disappoint me in the last few years.

Beware spoilers which are now all over social media. Saw a couple of screenshots from this final premiere screening online this morning that I really, REALLY wish I hadn’t.

Seeing it Thursday night. I'm probably going to try to stay off Twitter as there have been countless times fuckheads have posted screen grabs and retweeted them.

Yeah, this is where I leave this thread now as well until I see it - granted I posted some spoilers here but what I posted really isn't that big of deal for the film as a whole. Now I am actually seeing full on long, scenes of the flick and I don't like that shit.
Saw a really good scene and I'm pissed at what was revealed,

Couple more days to go. Trying to be super careful on social media so I don’t see spoilers.

Got a solo ticket for Friday night. Literally no one in my family wants to go with me - they’ve soured so hard on DC. Figured I’d at least see what the fuss is about. We did just rewatch Batman 89 so I’m excited to see Keaton in the role again.

I usually feel the same way, but I also felt the same way about Thor: Love & Thunder, The Eternals, Black Widow, Man Of Steel, Batman V Superman and Justice League. Then I went to their theater and sat there irritated and/or pissed throughout the majority of all of those feeling I had wasted the time and money when I could have just waited to stream it in my home theater. I am not one that has to see stuff on the opening weekend.

Still don't know what I want to do about this one. The reviews I am seeing are pummeling it and I don't want to have that same regret of the ones above. I can't tell you how happy I was that I stayed home for the recent Black Adam, Shazam: Fury, Ant-Man: Quantumania, and Black Panter: Wakanda.

Hmmm...what to do, what to do....
