  1. Top Gun: Maverick continuing to defy all understood box office trends has to be my favorite run in years
  2. plenty of films that heavily feature the US military have been assisted by them or some other department. It’s a pretty normal thing actually, Wikipedia has a list but I get the idea they are missing a bunch of films https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military-entertainment_complex
  3. Surely the inflation surge could help a big. Fallout did what, $220m? That’s got to be around $240-250m by now after the inflation and premium screens getting a bigger priority now. I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility.
  4. I’m interested in this too. I don’t think the bumps are gonna be crazy, I think the Top Gun IP was just something most of us severely underlooked in terms of potential. That being said Cruise shooting back up into the limelight and the goodwill he’s getting from Top Gun could very well make at least one of the two upcoming MI movies have $300m potential
  5. Absolutely phenomenal. 29% off of an inflated holiday opening. I really hope it can coexist with Jurassic, I know losing a lot of premium screens will hurt a bit, but hopefully good WOM will keep propelling it forward. I really hope to see $50+ million this next weekend.
  6. I don’t wanna get too bullish on the weekend just yet but that is a an absolutely fantastic hold. My threshold for success is $63-65m. A sub 50% drop I think puts this on a clear course for $400m domestic
  7. If this can manage a sub 50% second weekend drop after it’s boosted day to day numbers last weekend I think we really might be in for a hell of a run here
  8. And made nearly $200m domestic despite being about a story from WWII most Americans were only vaguely aware of
  9. rational thinking doesn't belong on the internets though, much less on twitter
  10. I know it’s Deadline and math isn’t their strong suit but $55m Friday should end up a decent bit higher than $110m unless this thing falls off a cliff
  11. Would honestly not be surprised if Sonic 2 flirts with $80-90m opening weekend
  12. Or just see if there's still a role in Oppenheimer left to take and start buddying with Nolan on everything
  13. Dog's opening isn't anything huge but it IS a good sign for non blockbuster releases moving into the rest of 2022
  14. I think it would definitely drop, much like RE sequels did eventually and Tomb Raider did. So yeah they'd have to adjust the budget. That said I think Holland has gained a lot of fans that will be interested in properties just because he's in it, so he's pretty much the closest thing we have to like, 1988 Tom Cruise rn. Idk how long it will last though.
  15. I wouldn't be surprised if Uncharted becomes another Resident Evil consistent earner. Never really crossing the threshold to being a "major" blockbuster but keeping enough people coming around. Fans of the games (like myself) will be more mixed to negative on it but enough casual filmgoers will enjoy it enough to keep it going for another couple of movies I imagine. Honestly I can't say I was a fan of it (too many deviations and odd choices from what should have been the easiest video game adaptation ever) but the movie wasn't poorly made and I definitely think casual audiences will like it. That said the adaptation I have absolutely zero hope for is Metal Gear Solid if that hasn't gone back into development hell yet
  16. It would likely come close to $40m for the 3-day based on a $15m total Friday
  17. Not that I'm defending the movie, but this works both ways for critic and audience reviews on RT. Uncharted may have 39%, but that could mean 39% of critics have it 9.5s across the board and the remaining just gave it bad reviews. 100% and 60% could hypothetically have the same average rating.
  18. Well as an Echidna he can be fully matured by 5 years of age so
