Because that's all he's got. It's a lot easier to dismiss people as "haters" than actually debate the points they're making.

Anyway, on topic. IMAX is also predicting big things for GotG in that format:

Richard L. Gelfond, chief executive officer of IMAX, said “Transformers 4” has become IMAX's biggest grossing film ever in China. He also predicted better-than-expected box office for “Guardians of the Galaxy” (pictured).

“If we as a company had to pick a film that we think most people don't have on their radar screen that we think will do very well this summer, it would be ‘Guardians of the Galaxy,” he said.

One way or another I'm pretty interested to see how this all shakes out.

Also: TMNT is coming out in IMAX too, right? Most cinemas don't have more than one IMAX theatre (if any do - no idea) and I can't imagine most of them switching out their IMAX movie entirely after only one week. Anyone know what the usual procedure would be for something like this? I wonder what impact one will have on the other.
