I didn't think those numbers were that bad until I saw this.

Forget about Battleship toppling The Avengers this weekend.
Universal's attempt to mimic the Transformers franchise was able to rake in only $420,000 from midnight shows. How bad is that exactly? Well, Think Like a Man was able to hit $500,000.
Most true blockbusters are able to hit at least $5 million from midnight shows. This does not bode well

I don't think the movie is bad, it just had terrible release timing.
The Avengers is a monster right now and is destroying everything in its path. For example, I know someone that has seen The Avengers 4 times already and is going again.
