  1. I suppose I should update the title one last time. I don't think Oppenheimer will add more than like 15m at the top end, and more realistically 10m or less.
  2. If we are looking at higher than 28m it’ll do about 85m. Sunday will be a soft drop with heavy PLF demand
  3. Time to make the thread, this will be the official previews number tomorrow.
  4. 10 year re-release in an empty post August market makes a lot of sense. And it'll probably do some sizable numbers given how many people seemingly missed this in IMAX the first go around.
  5. I think there is more emotional payoff here but I wouldn't say it's transformative. The important thing is that most characters are not being set up solely for a future arc, there is a genuine arc that our leads are going through with a promised payoff, and with it, emotional moments that result of that. Chani/Zendaya especially drive this. I still think there is a sterile-ness to it overall and I don't know, lack of a fully human touch that prevents it from being this 'all time great' that some declared, but it is a fair improvement. I think this is why I don't consider it leagues over the first, fundamentally I think the two movies could stand to be a little weirder and a little less overly serious. Don't get me wrong, there is more humor in this film but the seriousness of its characters and tone feels oppressive in both films still. I guess it was never reasonable to expect they'd change much gears, but it's also why I can't consider one hugely better than the other.
  6. Can't speak for the album but I found the score to be overwhelming in this (not in a good way), a lot of bass that ends up blurring together as droning for large portions of this and I didn't recall having this feeling in Part One's score. A couple of nice tracks that spring up towards the end though
  7. It's better than Part One but I'm also not over the moon tbh. It's more Dune, but this time it's actually providing resolution to its arcs. Bardem is the highlight for me, whether intentional or maybe slightly unintentional.
  8. Too lazy to count/400 Comps: Dune Reissue: Over 9 billion Oppenheimer: Over 1 billion Reminiscence: 100 billion
  9. Cavill's fun in Fallout. He's not a great actor but his physical presence definitely added a lot to Fallout. Reloading arms was all him!
  10. @Porthos Gonna need daily tracking for the Tenet re-release, thanks.
  11. I'm not expecting tons but there's probably enough Nolan fanatics and people who missed in 2020 that it would at least do a fair bit better than the Soul re-release did. Maybe add a couple million or so
  12. I know Boston is getting a 70mm print (not IMAX) but that would probably bode well for LA and NYC probably getting 70mm IMAX prints.
  13. Given the pandemic release and Nolan riding an Oppenheimer high, he probably saw it as the best opportunity for people to see it without restrictions in a dead zone for movie releases.
  14. I like the understated-ness of Murphy (and less enthused with RDJ) a lot but I do think Giamatti is great in Holdovers. Murphy does have a ridiculous load to bear for Oppenheimer but yeah, I don't know, depends on whether the Oscar voters are gonna try and spread the wealth where they can this year or just do what happened last year. I would hope Giamatti and Murphy are gonna get Oscar opportunities in the future but these aren't usually leading men guys, less so Giamatti so this is probably going to forever be their shot for Best Actor specifically.
  15. Could easily see Cillian getting BAFTA and Giamatti getting SAG. I'd lean Giamatti in the end though
  16. Yes they were very low. Christmas legs can still take it over 100m too even with the audience scores…so I guess it won’t be quite the Marvels or Shazam?
  17. Wakanda Forever was an obvious success financially and I would say generally liked by its target audience but I guess I’m not sure at how successful it was at getting audiences excited for the next one. Which isn’t the point for the movie but I imagine Marvel is probably unsure where to go right now with that
  18. Going off pure vibes but I feel like WOM doesn’t seem as bad as Flash or Ant Man in the US but maybe that’s because of lower expectations to begin with
  19. And I'm sure he'll stick with Universal as long as it remains convenient. But at some point, I'm sure the right opportunity arises where it makes sense to work with WB again. Nolan fortunately has the luxury to always be a free agent and evaluate on a per film basis.
