When I was watching this movie, I was working at the cinema at the time, so right after he got stabbed, my friend and co-worker leans over to me and whispered:"This ain`t gonna make another billion" and I whispered back "Nope" and we were right. All staff was so pissed, audience was pissed, so I can tell you as someone who had a chance to watch people`s reactions to various scenes on daily basis for several weeks (attendance dropped fast so we ddin`t keep it as long as DMC), that killing him off and removing Sparrabeth were big reasons why AWE lost $105 million at the boxoffice on DMC . When DMC was playing, Sparrabeth and Scruffington were getting the best reactions and repeat business among women was huge because of these two factors. OTOH, we had many angry walkouts during Elisabeth`s speech and especialy during the wedding. Both women and man hated those developments.
