This is a historic failure. Worst CinemaScore of any blockbuster, ever. Rapidly dwindling opening weekend predictions. Horrid numbers in international markets. Unless movies get a lot shittier, this will be in the top 5 worst crashes in my lifetime.

I don’t think a worse one could be engineered by anyone. Frankly, I doubt a single person thought a follow up the (until recently) highest grossing R rated movie, Oscar winning, massively successful Joker would be received like this. The worst CinemaScore of any blockbuster, ever!

Kudos to Phillips for burning eight digits of Warner’s money and giving box office nerds something truly special. Everyone wins but Zaslav!
