Odd likes/views ratio for the 2nd trailer. Pretty good 20 mil views within a week but only 62k likes.
Probably a case where they play the trailer as a preroll ad before YouTube videos. Happens quite a lot with movie trailers, and is why I don't really like using it as a sampler for a movie's buzz.

@Jaxon5 this “Black Panther 2 is a flop actually” stuff isn’t funny anymore. Continue this any further and you will leave me with no other choice but to give you a thread ban.

I'm still on a "expect the worst" with almost every superhero movie's box office potential until I'm proven otherwise. And none of the 2025 Marvel movies are giving me much confidence. Though I will say that Superman has potential to be a huge breakout. I doubt it will reach Avatar 3, but it could get close if Gunn really captures the character and what people love about him.

I mean...yeah, I probably would have said the same thing this guy on Reddit said months ago. Because yeah. Comic book movies are on a downslide in popularity. They've been on a decline for a couple years now. I can see a scenario where people saw Wolverine's casting as "desperate". I know I certainly felt that way. And heck, if we really want to get into the brass tax, everybody thought Guardians 3 missing a billion or 400M domestically was seen as ludicrous. It could never happen in a million years. Marvel was too strong for something like that to happen. I saw those predictions myself. And wouldn't you know it? Despite it having everything seemingly going for it, that didn't happen.
I don't think we need to get all dramatic and angry because somebody made a "wrong prediction". It's not like you guys made "wrong predictions" before, right?

Moderation
As always, please be mindful of what you post in regards to spoilers. You can give your review, but talking about certain aspects, even vaguely is not allowed.
@baumer I would recommend, if you see a post that you think is going too much into spoilers, that you should hit the "Report Post" button. That gives the mods notifications and an email that a poster is going too far and ensures that somebody will look into the situation. I personally did not see any posts that were too offensive (the film's trailers and marketing spells out that it's literally about multiverse stuff. It's like saying "Top Gun has planes in it" is a spoiler), but reporting posts give us very specific examples we can look into and analyze.

Haven't caught up on Spongebob in a while, but...man, you can hear the cast is struggling to keep those voices alive. Especially Tom Kenny. Guess it was bound to happen, but it's like when you're watching a modern Simpsons episode and you're imagining the cast taking a nap right after recording their lines.

I got really burned out around the flash release but this weekend got me thinking about this place and how much I missed some of you guys and being here.
You better be around when Superman makes a bazillion dollars. Those set photos? I'm convinced it's gonna be a masterpiece.

Inside Out 2 is at 3,150 theaters this very weekend, though. Would be a pretty epic hold to stay above 3,000 on the 2nd. 🤔
Well...yeah, you're right. I didn't ehck. But I'm not expecting a huge decline either way!

I was thinking it might for awhile just because Finding Dory lost like 900 theaters to... Nine Lives. But that was already losing theaters and PTA weeks prior, the successive late July pg13 action tentpoles coupled with Ice Age + Pets hurt it too
I mean I think the more apt movie to say it lost theaters to was Suicide Squad. But yeah, you kind of answered your question there. 2016 was at a time where there were way movies coming out (remember when we got like three 2500+ releases a week? Those were the days). And by the time August rolled around, Dory was already in ninth place. Inside Out's locked for fourth place this weekend, and theaters really have nothing to replace it with in a summer as dead with product as this has.
Again, Toy Story 4 is the better comparison, since it was still chilling in the top 4 since theaters had nothing to replace it with (July 2019 had 6 wide releases. That's what we typically get these days), and the first weekend of August only had one movie.

I am kind of wondering now if theaters will be that quick to dump Inside Out 2 next week. It's still got a pretty solid PTA for 1.5 months out and still 3000+ theaters. Might be able to withstand Harold and keep legging out all the way through Labor Day.
I see no reason why they would drop it next week? It's basically holding like Toy Story 4 with way higher numbers. I'm not expecting it to go sub-3000 until the 9th.

Twisters might just get above 40M this second weekend. Following Guardians of the Galaxy's holds, it goes to 8.7M for Thursday. Same second weekend holds as that movie gets you to 48M. Even knocking things down a bit with Deadpool being way bigger competition compared to TMNT still should lead to 40+. Maybe it could get to 300M after all.

DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE WEEKEND THREAD | 211 DOM, 233.1 OS, 444.1 WW | Disney does it again!

I mean you can't really compare pre-COVID demos to post-COVID demos. The data has more than indicated a huge chunk of Caucasian audiences have dipped out from moviegoing over the last two years.
