The audience for Hollywood movies back in the day was 90%+ white when all of these Disney movies came out. It is now mostly non-white thanks to International box office. The studios are making their decisions based on the changing movie economics.

this looks ok, but wasn't impressed. Daniel Craig not exactly a draw outside of Bond. But audiences may want a palate cleanser after the shitshows of Dark Fate and Charlie Angels.
My bet is that both Terminator and Charlie's Angels will be better received by the audience and easily make a lot more money. This looks to be another Bad Times at El Royale.

To be fair, a lot of them are wrong bc they're from trolls on reddit or something like that. This time is legit, from trust worthy ppl I know.
I have seen a lot of screening reports from journalists and reliable publications that turned out to be wrong. Remember when Deadpool 2 and Wonder Woman were disasters ? We'll find out how good or bad it is in November but I do think this movie has potential if it is decent enough and is well-marketed. Sony seems to have some confidence in it if they are investing so much money in its soundtrack and have test-screened it. (MIB was never test-screened)

I counted almost 300 ticket blocks for Midsommar for the past 24 hours. That seems fairly decent for a movie like this.

I don't care about test screening reports. They are almost always wrong about big movies but I think a Charlie's Angels movie has more potential than a Will Smith-less MIB movie. MIB has a very narrow concept and , like Terminator, you can't do much with it once you have gone through all iterations of that concept. MIB4 was going to drop big to $400-450 million WW even if Will had come back.

Well there is no doubt that audiences are going to give it a bad Cinemascore and that's all that really matters. A lot of critics are hesitant in describing this as a horror movie as well. It's still early but presales so far haven't been that bad when you compare them to Annabelle at the same point. Of course, this is going to be more presale heavy, but I still can't see it performing like It Comes at Night.
Yeah, I just checked the presales since Monday morning and they aren't bad for a movie being released by a minor distributor.

Pretty much every big movie going forward is going to disappoint. Spiderman , Lion King, Hobbs and Shaw. Spiderman is coming too soon after Endgame. You could see the interest in TLK drop after the second trailer was released. I am not sure a FF spin-off without the main FF cast will work all that great in the domestic market.
-
The trailer seems to do justice to the book which is fucking terrible. It is also hilarious that Mike Flanagan went for The Haunting of The Hill House aesthetics for the movie instead of using the much superior aesthetics of The Shining.
-
This makes more sense as a summer movie. They will also put some distance between Gemini Man/ Spies in Disguise if they move it to May/June.

It already had test screening or two months ago.
I'm pretty sure it had at least one test screening last summer but that was probably a very rough cut.

I doubt Roger Deakins was ever involved in this project.

I think a lot of things are in play here. A:EG is definitely having an affect. We see air getting sucked out of the room every time there is a mega blockbuster movie. Another issue is that there are just too many blockbuster movies being released nowadays. I think studios will soon realize that if you don't have a potential billion dollar grosser you have to keep the budget under $ 150 million. This would've helped movies like Dumbo, Dark Phoenix and Godzilla.

really impressed that even though the people who are criticizing pattinson's casting surely know they're gonna be made fun of in two years like the folks who criticized Ledger, they're persisting with it anyway. very brave on their part.
Pattinson is a very good actor but his best roles are that of wormy, scum of the earth type of characters (Good Life, The Lighthouse, High Life, The Rover etc.). I think it is a valid to wonder if he has the Bale or Affleck type of screen presence to play Bruce Wayne.
-
Maybe WB should've waited a bit before greenlighting the next Godzilla movie.
-
TLK will make over $1 billion WW but it is another movie that is being over-estimated. I think it will be more of a Jungle Book / BATB kind of performer rather than a A:IW/Titanic kind.

It's not a shot by shot remake. They've already confirmed 4 new songs for it. Idk why people continue to believe this lololMaybe because practically every shot in the new trailer was also in the old movie.

TLK's official trailer is pretty underwhelming and shows that it is just a scene by scene remake. It can make $200 million on OW based on the hype it has generated but I think it will fall short.

It1 had 197 million trailer views in the first 24 hours. How is It2 doing ?
-
There are legit reasons why the movie has been delayed so much. First delay was for the reshoots and all the subsequent delays have been to accommodate the Disney/Fox merger. The movie obviously still needs reshoots but I don't think the situation is as dire as it may seem.

I'm going to take this movie's November 10th release date and examine the wide releases I am interested in that are within a three-week radius from this film. We have:
- The Hunt, a remake of an Oscar-nominated foreign film that Blumhouse is involved with
- The Last Full Measure, a film about war veterans being distributed by Roadside Attractions which seems to be similar in approach to 2017's Thank You For Your Service
- Motherless Brooklyn, an Edward Norton film that, if we're lucky, can be the next big mobster film (if that's what it's about, I'm not very sure)
- Terminator: Dark Fate, which received positive enthusiam at CinemaCon and is said to be faithful to the first two films
- Doctor Sleep, a sequel to The Shining that, interestingly, was lifted out of January and placed in November--do they have Oscar hopes?
- Last Christmas, a romantic comedy with two charismatic leads (Emilia Clarke and Henry Golding)
- Midway, a WWII film by Roland Emmerich
- Ford V. Ferrari, James Mangold's first film since the excellent Logan
- A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, a film starring Tom Hanks as Mr. Rogers directed by Marielle Heller
- Frozen 2, a sequel taking very intriguing risks
- Knives Out, a classic whodunit with half of Hollywood in its cast
- Queen & Slim, a race-focused Oscar hopeful
All of those films are coming out within a three-week radius of this Sonic film. I won't speak for anyone else, but there seems to be so many interesting films I could see instead of this Sonic film, and this Sonic film looks awful, so I'm going to see some of the other movies that seem like they'd be more deserving of the ticket sales. Hopefully others do the same.
it is going to make more money worldwide than every movie on the list other than Frozen 2 and maybe Terminator.

These look like photoshoots and not scenes from the movie. What's the point of calling it "first look" if you are not going to show anything from the movie ?
-
This is the most uneventful CinemaCon in recent years. Only one big trailer release through the first three days and no breaking movie news .
-
These Endgame presales will actually hurt Shazam. That's millions of dollars that people have spend today on a CBM three days before another CBM opens.

Does the Midsommar number include $1.1 million previews ? That's not a good number if it doesn't.
