I'm sorry, how is having other data no longer mean "true feelings"? Sure with tracking and presales you could do more of an educated guess, but your own interpretation on new information is still how you truly feel about something. We are human, so we can look at data and information we are given, and have different conclusions to something. Besides, are we not allowed to change our thoughts or opinions on something? And quite honestly, I usually consider year-ago predictions to be more on the optimistic side in the first place, and not fully indicative on what a forum thinks about something before release. If you think that people's predictions from 2017 or 2018 is what we should follow and listen to all the time, then fine by me. But that's just how we differ

Ah yes, because posts made over a year ago when we had little to nothing to work off of is much more indicative of how people felt a couple weeks before release.

Wasn't that only like one or two people? How does that apply to "everyone"?

...nobody said that?

Awkwafina's next two projects (aside from Jumanji) are Disney productions.

Mickey's Law is back at it again.

Is The Kitchen really not having any previews? Because one theater near me has Thursday previews at 7. Although to be fair, it is only just the one theater. Everything else start their tickets on Friday, at least right now.

Is Letterboxd canceled????

It Chapter Two Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-38 Days and Counting Sellouts Showings Seats Sold Total Seats Perct Sold TOTALS 0 26 22 5,113 0.43% Have no comps. It seems low, but I'm pretty sure these showtimes just got reinstated, and at this point most people are probably either sleeping or just plain not thinking about tickets at this point. Of course, we're also the only people who know that tickets are on sale in a handful of locations, so...yeah, this is just kind of nothing special. If people are interested, one location has sold 20 of those 22 tickets, and one locations has 18 of the 26 showings so far. Said 18-showings location is a 24-screener, so that does explain why that does have more. But having so many showings more than a month before its reveal does say, at least a little bit, how big some theaters expect the film to be. Also to @Biggestgeekever and his discovery, the two AMC locations available also only have it up to 7, while the independent theater starts at 5. Surprisingly, it's not the first time this has happened. Ocean's 8 4PM Thursday shows were AMC-only, while every other theater waited for 5. Don't ask me why that happened, but there is a precedence for this.

Anyway, before we get to the goods... Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-3 Days and Counting Sellouts Showings Seats Sold Total Seats Perct Sold TOTALS 0 39 469 6,379 7.35% Total Showings Added Today: 9 Total Seats Added Today: 873 Total Seats Sold Today: 110 Comps 0.11x of The Lion King 3 days before release (2.66M) Adjusted Comps 0.92x of Once Upon 3 days before release (5.3M) 8.45x of Crawl 3 days before release (8.4M) 6.29x of Stuber 3 days before release (4.7M) Alright, so of the movies listed, Once Upon feels like the best one, just by being an older male-skewing film with a fanbase (although who knows which one is more fan-frontloaded?). At least using that 5.3M, I would have concerns. If it follows Fate of the Furious, that would result in just barely over 50M. And Fate came out in the spring. But of course, I don't have much to go off of. I don't even know how other F&F films acted. And of course, last week, all of my data was pointing towards a preview # in the 4M range for Once Upon, so it's not fair to be so pessimistic. But if this doesn't start gaining solid ground on Once Upon in the next three days...yeah, I'll be concerned.

@Porthos how come the rest of the squad responded with a gif, but you didn't??????

So....I just started prepping up for Hobbs & Shaw, and wouldn't you know it, It Chapter Two tickets are on sale...sort of. Only three theaters have showtimes up, but it's pretty clear we're gonna get a tickets announcement any day now. @Porthos @Inceptionzq @VenomXXR @captainwondyful y'all know what to do.

Admittedly, I think a big part of that does have to do with a lot of other movies currently in theaters sucking up all the buzz and attention. Far From Home and Lion King were both humongous, and even Once Upon was a bit of a breakout with adult men who would be interested in this. By comparison, Guardians of the Galaxy arrived after an abysmal July, and Suicide Squad was targeting a much younger audience compared to Ghostbusters/Star Trek/Bourne a couple weeks before it.

I don't know. I'll check some of the theaters around me later tonight, but I've been sensing zero buzz on this. Maybe it's because I'm not a big fan of the franchise or whatever, but I don't see anyone talking about it, both online and in real life. Fate of the Furious felt like it had way more chatter by comparison. It could end up hitting 70M or something by the end, but honestly an opening in the 50s would not surprise me in the slightest.

I'm not expecting good things domestically for H&S, but I'm pretty sure OS results will put things in the black, right?

Assuming he's playing Cruella's fat henchman, I wonder who the skinny guy will be? The '96 version was Hugh Laurie, so the next guy's got some big shoes to fill.

trash

It's not necessarily post-production, but likely due to STX's money troubles. The last remaining films from Relativity Media and TWC got delayed again and again because those studios were on the verge or had hit bankruptcy. Recent articles have mentioned STX is having a lot of those issues.

Good lord you need to get laid. Ain't no way a woman who has felt the touch of a man (or a lady, I ain't gon' discriminate) would throw this big a hissy fit over people liking a Tarantoenail movie.

Shouldn't have said that.

🤔 Harley and Diana will probably (keyword) make it out okay. Everyone else is f*cked tho

Mickey's Law does not mean all Disneys overperform. It only means for non-Disneys, anything that can go wrong will go wrong. That's why Disney gets a Nutcracker or Dumbo thrown into the mix.
