I'd say the difference is that some of the five Spidey films were actually good (I'd say two of them, others would say three) so people will give them another chance. F4 films have been crap all the way down.

I think it's very unlikely that Fox would work with Marvel/Disney in that way. There is almost no goodwill between them.
Hence F4 comics being cancelled, X-Title writers not being allowed create major new characters and merchandise contracts for both properties being terminated en masse.
I think those first two are rumors that have been debunked. Marvel cancels and restarts titles all the time, and the claim about being unable to create new X-characters was based on a misunderstanding by the person who said it, IIRC. I don't know anything about the merchandising.
A quick google will bring up many stories.

35 people reviewed the Fantastic to generate that %9
All they need is 29 positive reviews, and no more negative reviews and they're at %50
The sample is way too small to be accurate.
But then, only 233 people reviewed the Incredibles.
That seems low?
Ant-Man is at %80 from 233 reviews.
So.
That's small.
Wait?
It's not open to the public.
Hobbyist assholes can't review, only professional assholes.
"And I thought I couldn't hate Andrea from The Walking Dead any more."
So what this means that 33 reviews is 1/7th of the final accounting on this movie, so it is nearly a reasonably large sample after all.

I'm also in Nashville. The last film I saw at that $2.50 all shows discount theater was Kingsman back in June.
I wouldn't be surprised if this event doesn't just entirely close that theater all together.
However, I'm not letting one person with an illness and their actions stop me from going to the movies(not sure if that's wholly what you mean or just that theater).
I'm waiting to hear Dennis review this film. I'm guessing he still intends to go. He seemed to be the biggest champion of this film in this thread. Saying it looked better than the Marvel Studio films among other things.
I went to the first showing this morning. Not good.
Meanwhile...
Wouldn't it be awesome if it settled at 4%?
Or fantastic maybe?!?
Not the word I'd prefer though, in either case....
I'm morbidly curious to hear more. I guess it's time for somebody to make the post-release thread, if anyone gives enough a crap to bother.
Second! Can someone who likes to do these things set up the grading and discussion thread?
I'd do it myself, but (a) I'd feel hypocritical, since I have no intention of seeing it, and (b) whatever passes for the film's fanbase probably wouldn't be amused by the facetious polling options that I have in mind.
Why reward incompetence with your hard earned money?
Really? We should get a beer sometime and talk Trek.
And I've only been here for a little less than 2 years. Never made it out to Antioch for a movie. And ultimately, I'm not going to let it bother me. But going to that theater and that movie? Yeah. Something morbid about that.
I know they weren't great movies, but I still think the Tim Story movies at least deserve to be in the 40-50% range.
And yikes, that's a really low score for the new movie. I don't doubt there's probably a bit of piling on happening with the critics, but regardless it's pretty clear that the movie just doesn't seem to work on any level.
There's frivolous spending and then there's telling a movie studio "make crap and I'll pay you." The latter is part of the reason so many movies these days are so bad.
