they're really not changing the release date, geez
I mean you can't really change a release date this late in the game. They made their bed. They're gonna have to sleep in it.
And honestly, while I'm sure the second weekend drop will be bad, I think it and Deadpool will co-exist. Important to remember this is the only big PG-13 tentpole for the rest of the summer. That goes a long way, as Planet of the Apes has shown.

QuoteSony‘s Bad Boys: Ride or Die will hopefully hit $75M or more in its global outing this weekend, in a marketplace that has suffered from not only lackluster, but lack of product. Broken out that’s $40M+ in U.S. and Canada and $35M abroad in a 92% footprint.
Presales for the R-rated fourthquel are behind that of the previous pre-Covid threequel, Bad Boys for Life, which hit a franchise opening high stateside of $62.5M 3-day and $101M worldwide. A few weeks ago domestic projections were at $50M domestic, but that simmered to $40M of late per several sources; Sony is officially calling the U.S. start at $30M+. Trepidation stems from the offbeat marketplace, which sources believe will pick up over Fathers Day with Disney/Pixar’s Inside Out 2 (currently at a $80M-$85M U.S./Canada projection).

No offense, but I think you really need a break from this place if this is really hurting your mental health this badly. Your happiness being this reliant on box office numbers wouldn't even be good if the business was booming, and, like I always tell people, it's not like you can't just talk about movies elsewhere on other movie forums that aren't as focused on box office numbers. It makes no sense to hang out around a place you hate.
Still relevant Clay. You don’t seem very happy with box office stuff anymore, and I don’t think it’s good to spend time with a hobby that makes you miserable.

I'll admit to not expecting Garfield to underwhelm like this. One, coz the family audience has been starved since KFP4 with IF being the only option that came out just a weekend prior. Secondly coz the IP is a merchandise juggernaut and its popularity had grown since the films from the 2000s
I was pretty high on Garfield too, but in hindsight, I'd argue it's the opposite. The last major Garfield thing to premiere is The Garfield Show on Cartoon Network, and that premiered in 2009, and last aired in 2016. That's a long time without any new major Garfield media to make kids familiar and aware of the character. The character is now owned by Nickelodeon, and I don't think they've made a new cartoon or done anything else with him since they bought the rights outside of a few cameos in some cheaply-made Nicktoon crossover games. At least before the Bay Turtles movies came out, there was a super popular Nickelodeon series airing on Saturday mornings. If anything, from what I can gather, Nick's marketing machine has been way more focused on advertising and hyping up IF over Garfield (understandable!)
The other cartoons and specials and movies might be on streaming, but it's hard to keep a franchise super relevant with modern generations when there's not a lot of prominence in the current pop culture landscape or a shiny new thing kids can claim as their own. Plus in 2004, even though Garfield and Friends was similarly off the air (though IIRC it was still airing reruns on Nick or Cartoon Network until 2001 or something), you could still rely on the character being relevant because you could still read the newest comic strip in your local newspaper. That idea is so foreign to today's kids that I don't even know if newspapers still put comics in their paper anymore.

Wasn't Bad Boys 3 only tracking for 35-40M before it opened to 62M? I think this will crack 50M just fine.
That was also four years ago and pre-COVID, when walkups were expected. Nowadays, walkups are only something you're lucky to get and movies are more presales-driven than ever. So yeah, 50M is still very much in doubt, and it's honestly easier to just expect the worst and just...pretend that opening in the 40s is good for this.

We should have realised that studios actually don't have any strategy when they refused to collaborate with one another and the theaters during Covid. If the studios had actually got together, discussed a way to have one big movie every 2 weeks with a smaller movie in between, they could have come out of the Covid lull stronger, theaters would have become the communal space again, and movies would have been saved from being looked at as "wait for streaming". The studios let the industry down during the recovery from Covid.
Let it be known, that four years ago, I warned everybody what was going to happen. And like...I'm not wrong!

My eldest son is 11, and likes going to the movies.
Last year at this time, there was no shortage of films in May/June to take him to. GOTG3, Fast X, ATSV, Transformers.
This year, there's nothing for that preteen/teenage boys, there's not much. Fall Guy aims older. Two over the hill cops on a last adventure isn't quite that appealing.
We saw POTA because it was the best option for him this period. And he hasn't seen any of the other Apes films.
It's really slim pickings for a demographic that drives a lot of theatre business.
Would love to know the strategy here where you only have a whopping four PG-13 action movies to choose from the entire summer (Fall Guy, Apes, Quiet Place, Twisters). And I'm stretching things here hard for Quiet Place. This is just frankly inexcusable for the summer time, even if you want to use the strike excuse. Even just adding in Ghostbusters some time in June or something would have made a world of difference.

Planet of the Apes is gunning for 160M at this rate, right? Like at the very least, with Father's Day around the corner, that should be a good boost for it.
