@JB33 In all seriousness, I think the biggest factors for Endgame reaching 300M is how frontloaded the movie will be, as well as the massive jump from 257 to 300. Looking at the latter, Endgame would have to increase at ~42M to reach 300M on OW. When IW broke TFA's record, it was above it by about ~10M with about 3 years of ticket price inflation. When TFA broke JW, it was a jump of about ~39M...in only a few months, but we'll get to that. When Avengers broke DH2's record, it was a jump of about ~38M...in just under a year, but we'll get to that too. And then DH2 beat TDK's record with a jump of about ~11M after 3 years of ticket price inflation. So already, none of these movies jumped over 42M. And while some of these movies broke records after a few months, both cases, Avengers especially, had certain factors going for them. TFA obviously beat JW, because it was one of the most anticipated movies of all time. But the one thing Avengers had going for it was it being shiny and new compared to Potter. DH2 was super frontloaded on its OW (-53% drop on Saturday, even taking out midnight previews the movie still dropped from Saturday by quite a bit), because of the huge fan rush as the final movie, an "end of an era" if you will. Avengers didn't have that issue, because it was still seen as a "new thing" to people. Endgame's playing almost the exact same playbook as DH2 (minus the fact that Fantastic Beasts didn't come out two months later, but I digress), and while this won't be as frontloaded as DH2, I feel like it's almost certain it will be one of the most frontloaded MCU movies. If it follows Ant-Man 2's OW/OD ratio, the lowest of the bunch, it would need about 133.4M for its OD to reach that mark. That's about 14.3M more than TFA's OD. I guess that's not totally impossible with around 4 years of inflation, but it still seems like a big jump to me. Even TFA adjusted to 2018 inflation would only be 124.7M. It probably won't be as frontloaded as AMatW (although there's still a decent chance it could go below even that), but no matter what the multiplier, that OD really matters here.

Not me. I don't want to set my expectations too high and disappoint myself.

You need new friends.

FX is pretty dang close.

The shoulder angel gags get to me every time.

That's the one movie I wish we as a forum referenced more often.

I...found something...that may or not be hidden footage for...something. I can't say much, because it was low quality, but it looked very Rogue One-esque. Do with that what you will

Hellboy opening in the double digits both astonishes and depresses me.

@Porthos

Patricia Heaton plays a werewolf in a sequel to the 2017 movie Spark: A Space Tail, an animated movie nobody but me has heard of:

American Honey costs $3 on Amazon.

@Thanos Legion Even with A-List, there's a lot of better options you can use with that service that would be way more worth your time than a Hellboy reboot

lmao why the fuck are people here willingly paying money to see Hellboy? Y'all are pathetic

@aabattery

TOG, I get that you try and see every movie that comes out....but why this?

They've been up since Thursday. And shockingly, at least looking at Pulse statistics, people aren't eager to buy tickets for it right away.

Again, it's not that busy of a weekend. A thread lock would more than suffice, and if needed, people can just go to the specific movie threads.

Some new Galaxy's Edge material is being shown at SWC, and they just showed what the Coke bottles will look like. These guys are really thinking about everything.

Still doesn't answer why you just decided to start a completely new thread instead of just locking it 20-40 minutes, throw out threadbans/suspensions, and then start things fresh again. This isn't a highly-anticipated weekend thread where this could be somewhat justified. The #1 movie right now is a second weekend holdover that's looking to make less than 25M.

No offense, but is a whole new thread really necessary? All this does is brush these actions under the rug, and doesn't give any of the perpretrators of these flame wars any repercussions. Simply locking the thread for a few minutes, look to find the inciting posts/trolls, and then threadban the people who started this (Matthew and LordNox were definitely some of the people who started this mess). It might be harder, but at least the people who deserve repercussions would get it.

I know people talk about the lack of marketing, but at least when I've gone to the theater, I've gotten trailers for Missing Link a few times. I generally enjoy Laika's work, but the trailers made the movie look so lame. I'm sure the actual movie is good and all, but if judging by the trailer, it doesn't surprise me people didn't turn up for this one.

weird flex but ok
