Definitely feels like Captain Marvel will at least be above Hunger Games, even if Lego and/or Dragon overperform. The last major event movie was Aquaman, which will be 3 months old, MCU's the biggest thing in pop culture right now, representation, riding the coattails of Endgame. And again, even if Lego or Dragon overperform, their high end is arguably around the 200M mark. Unless it's godawful, Captain Marvel's got everything going for it.

This is the first weekend since Labor Day 2015 that the #1 movie made sub-$10M. That's embarrassing.

Technically Tom Hanks wasn't in a 100M hit within the past year Oprah was though thanks to a solid wrinkle of fudge

Makes sense the homeboy who intentionally cited Jeff Wells to discredit Richard E. Grant would read 4chan.

It's real sad to think that the Academy thinks Oldman, McDormand, Rockwell and Janney aren't "popular" enough. For God's sake, Rockwell's nominated again this year!

Tyrese is why we can't have nice things.

Runtimes w/out credits and attachments Lego: 1:38. I got Shazam and Detective Pikachu at my early screening, so it's probably the same here Cold Pursuit: 1:50. Hellboy and John Wick are the attachments What Men Want: 1:48. Pet Sematary and Rocketman The Prodigy: 1:26. Child's Play (debut trailer) and Fighting with my Family

For Super Bowl comps, Winchester did $615K last year.

Peppermint had $800K for its previews as a comparison.

I'm not completely sold on this beating out F8 here in the states, but I feel like there's a very strong shot after watching this.

I believe Wonder Park is getting a pre-game spot too. But yeah, it's very strange there aren't a lot of movie spots.

A recent Variety article about Disney and its jump into streaming mentions that the acquisition is expected to close in March. https://variety.com/2019/biz/features/disney-plus-streaming-plans-bob-iger-1203120734/

FWIW, when I saw the early screening for Lego Movie 2, they just played the old Shazam trailer. Maybe we'll get something new for the general release, but I guess it makes sense.

That release date's giving me strong First Man vibes.

Jordan Peele seems like an underrated candidate for a Titanic-esque original blockbuster. Interviews make him seem very keen on making original content, while Get Out was a total crowdpleaser. If Us replicates the same success, he’ll probably pitch a bigly original project. That project can very well be the breakout original blockbuster DAJK wants
