Poor marketing, timing, or both?

Disney is promoting the heck out of this John Carter movie.

It starts tomorrow. The average theater run is, what 3 weeks? About 80%+ of theater proceeds occur on weekends, right?

Is anything going on over the next few weekends?

It seemed inevitable they would make it as much as I am sure they completely changed 95% of what Burroughs wrote

The movie looks like a horrible CGI bastardization of what were pretty decent pulp novels. I'll wait for the Redbox for this one.

I will not see the movie purely based on the ads that don't stop.

I still have no idea what it is supposed to be about, and I have seen at least an hours worth of promo.

...and we have a BOMB.
