Not really. It's actually largely because animated movies typically don't get a ton of PLFs in the first place. Unless you're a major property like Mario or a big sequel like Toy Story 4 or Minions 2, you're not getting IMAX or PLFs, since families typically don't buy premiums anyways. Even Wreck-It Ralph 2 didn't get IMAX due to Fantastic Beasts 2 and only got them a week or two after release, because Beasts 2 failed to make much money out of it and there was nothing else to replace it with. Wish will likely get few premiums as well in favor of Napoleon, but it's not because "oh no Disney movies bomb now", but because of the market and how these type of movies sell.

There is truly nothing in this world I fear more than a Swiftie. And I know from experience with my family.

Guys, I'm not always on social media. I don't think I even follow Swift on social media 😆

Don't think so. If there's public information about this Eras theatrical release, feel free to make one.

Seems a bit high. Shang-Chi's IM with 3M would get it to 25.7M. And that movie is two years old and had previews start at 6PM. Even moving it up a tad, to like 9x its preview, is still just 27M. Which would still be good and fine for this, especially since its target audience don't go to the movies anymore and it's the last movie anyways.

Finally pinning this up now that we have a less cluttered pinned section at the moment and this is also just over a month away.

I mean…have you seen Promising Young Woman?

@Claire of Themyscira your time has come.

That is also true sadly. There's always going to be a major audience sector that don't like seeing those goshdarn cartoons and will always make franchise installments like these more niche. People see those Disney remakes for a reason after all.

I mean the first live-action movie in 1990 broke box office records and the 2014 movie made $500M. Don't think going into live-action hurt the franchise's appeal whatsoever. Honestly the big issue here in hindsight is that Mutant Mayhem didn't really have much of a hook to distinguish itself from the recent movies outside of the funky art style. So it really only got the hardcore fans excited. Plus the 2014 movie came out when there was a hot new cartoon on Nickelodeon that was averaging 2-3 million viewers an episode. The last show, Rise of the TMNT, flopped, with its second season dumped on Nicktoons. And there hasn't been anything new with the property apart from a Netflix movie that came and went last year. So it doesn't help that a lot of kids today don't have the same Turtle fever that kids 10 years ago had. And in the end, it's still gunning for a solid 120M domestically and has strong reception that will help keep the franchise chugging along. If Paramount were smart, they would find a way to send this to Netflix if they want a good sequel bump. Spider-Verse got a huge second wind of popularity when it played on there.

Feel like everybody thinks that. Especially in regard to Oppenheimer.

lmao wat People actually remember her birthday?

Anyhoo, not gonna look at all the NCD sales for obvious reasons, but I thought it woulda been neat to at least look at the re-releases and see all the tickets sold for them at my theater. Just to see how the classics are holding up. American Graffiti: 41 tickets Jurassic Park: 119 tickets Beauty and the Beast: 66 tickets Boy oh boy, do people love them those dinos.

Moderation We’re not doing this “grr critics bad. Grrr critics too nice to MCU movies” stuff. Move along.
