Of course transformers might also move to October/November itself. Would be annoying but I think TWR could still survive one janky looking movie cutting into its legs

Does anyone has friday numbers? I want to know how Heron and GxK are holding

TBF toppling Star Wars ain't hard these days.

KFP4 - 30,712 / 996,640 (+60.6%) The Roundup 4 - 311,513

Under 10% incoming. Snyder never fails.

DS2 reception lost the MCU the mandate of heaven.

Most studios are not afraid of Paramount at this point.

Well, it might get more views than the new releases this specific weekend anyway. Although the idea of this somehow toppling Dune and Star Wars is hilarious.

That doesn't crack the top 10 most psychotic moments in the chrischan saga.

I think there should be more skepticism at this point on whether hoovering up more TV/film IP is really a huge path toward continued success for a company like Sony. It's a real question mark that buying Fox actually helped Disney that much and as far as I can tell, WB adding the Discovery catalogue hasn't done much for them. Maybe buying smaller assets like a Marvel or a Dreamworks Animation makes business sense, but absorbing another studio like this? Sony would be stuck with a lot of declining linear channels. It's too late in the game for them to make a major play in the streaming space and all of their own product is tied up in streaming deals with Netflix and Disney for the foreseeable future so Paramount+ would be a pretty worthless asset for them. Is all that trouble really worth it just so you could churn out some Mission Impossible and Transformers movies (franchises that haven't exactly blown up the box office recently)? Why not just let your studio continue to do its thing doing decently in theaters and acting pretty successfully as an "arms dealer" to the streamers and spend this money expanding into something with more potential upside?

¥155M Blue Lock OD ¥2.0B+ Final looks safe. I guess ¥3.0B is also possible if it can handle GW well with GxK

Wish I had Civil War Thurs. figures so the potential hold could be anticipated better.

Please remember that the movie event of the year is out TODAY and that it will most definitely deflate this weekends BO.

$670K Spy x Family

$670K Spy x Family

Not great given the aggressive promotion.

Not really. Better than First Omen but probably looking at a low 10s opening at best, unless word-of-mouth kicks in quick

This is sitting at 90% on RT right now and most of those reviews are not eh it's okay. Most of them are enthusiastic this movie is a blast type of reviews. It seems where Universal is failing is getting the GA to check those out. Still think it can be saved in the last week with late buys and Walkups. Then WOM kicks in with Mothers day in second weekend if Women enjoy it as much or more than men it should have a strong hold.It would be better to have a strong hold off a 35-40 million opening than a 25-30 million though.

Is this a good result? https://variety.com/2024/film/box-office/box-office-abigail-previews-1235976403/

Cinema counts: Abigail 545 Butterfly Tale 439 Met Opera La Rondine 112 Jeanne Du Barry 104 The Book of Clarence 184 (So glad I can finally stop seeing the Book of Clarence trailer, looks like the most unappealing film in a long time lol)

I mean if you heard Out of Ashes without context you'd never guess it was for Deadpool 2
