It's not disappointing, but certainly below expectations. Many analysts predicted close to SWIII and SMIII numbers.

If you actually read other peoples post, they state that the movie was a dissapointment in terms of content and story, the overall box office gross is impressive considering the positive-negative word of mouth.

Ex. Spiderman3. A HUGE disappointment in terms of content, acting, fx, story, etc. but a huge success at the boxoffice (by tricking people into thinking it would be a good movie).

That's clever marketing for ya. Anyway, SM3 wasn't that big a disappointment to me. It was my favorite, actually. I saw it once and brought my girlfriend to a second showing. She liked it too.

"I seek faith in the unfaithful just as you seek peace and atonement in a war-torn world."

"The common wit is not fair to middling."

"Laugh at me all you want, one day you'll all be kissing my feet."

"Young age is no excuse for poor taste."

"To be a prep is to be blissfully unaware of one's own mediocrity."

Certainly no disappointment like King Kong's box office. I remember people saying it was going to be the next Titanic, and then it barely grossed $50 million opening wknd. I remember my teacher telling me in my face, "I guarantee you King Kong won't make more than $50 million opening weekend." I dont know how he knew, but damn did I feel embarassed having to admit he was right.

How can a $101 milloin dollar weekend be a dissapointment - this is crazy talk ,
look lets get real here - most reviews have been positive 79% on rottentomatoes for one & 7.6 out of 10 on IMDB - I can tell you only positive word of mouth can produce these sort of numbers .

It was very disapointing but its making a lot because of the hype and the 19 year hyatis
