Ah yes, the ALL POWERFUL MARVEL FANBASE. Don\’t you DARE ALIENATE THEM. Lol, seriously, you people should listen to yourselves. No matter what the box office performance is, the movie is flat out, mind blowingly amazing.

"Interstellar" now marks the lowest-grossing Nolan opening since “Batman Begins” in 2005

Prestige 2006 – $14,801,808

How is a beginning box-office of $130 million considered a box-office failure ? Stop spreading nonsense. I guess people are trying to find many ways to bash Chris Nolan.

Well, you guys gave TDKR an A two years back, and it\’s widely known as the worst Nolan film. (Even after Interstellar) So there goes your credibility.

"Audiences only gave the movie B+ Cinemascore suggesting that maybe not all Nolan fans were as much on board as they usually are. While that grade certainly isn’t low, one could argue it is low for Nolan who usually has an unimpeachable touch." A convincing spin of the second highest possible Cinemascore into bad news. Syke. Any other film, you\’d call it a "great" cinemascore. Interstellar rules, his best since Insomnia, TDK, Inception, Memento all blah. Everyone is getting their Nolan hate exactly wrong, and the Playlist is boldly leading the knee-jerk reactionary way

So $50 million is a failure now? SMH. "Interstellar" and "Big Hero 6" will both be the top movies again next weekend.

Sorry, that quote should be "since the EARLY aughts."

"Fury" is the "lowest grossing Brad Pitt film since the aughts?" Huh? What about "The Assassination of Jesse James" and "Killing Them Softly"? I\’m pretty sure "Burn After Reading" and "Tree of Life" grossed considerably less than "Fury" already has, too.

i\’d say the conflicting reviews stunned many a would-be viewer into not rushing out to see it during the first week. moreso than any so called "massive Marvel fanbase" alienation.

Intersteller\’s ads made it look like a weepy melodrama. I\’m not even sure what it\’s about beyond dude making his daughter cry. Nolan\’s last movie was really, really bad. Your review confirmed, in my mind, what I already suspected and ended any interest I had in it.
Big Hero 6 was phenomenal.

The 18 to 25 year olds apparently stayed away from Interstellar and I wonder how much of that was because the movie simply didn\’t appeal to them and how much was because Nolan and his fanboys alienated the massive Marvel fanbase
