The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread (December 2021 - July 2023)
Eric the Clown replied to Cap's topic in Numbers and Data
Moderation I also wanted to say that I think the whole "Disney+ killed Pixar" stuff feels both very off-topic and very "been there, done that". I feel we've had this converstaion countless times, and I don't think it needs to be regurgitated again, especially in a thread it doesn't belong in. At the very least, if you want to continue the conversation, take it to the Disney and/or Elemental thread. -

Moderation Just a reminder that you can put users on your Ignore list if you find them obnoxious. It's certainly far more productive than throwing out insults. -
GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 3 WEEKEND THREAD

The reason why June is so crowded is pretty simple. Studios want to maximize summer weekdays for their movies and June is arguably the best month to do such a thing. 10 wide releases isn't all that different from pre-COVID Junes. 2019 had 9 movies, 2018 had 12, 2017 had 13. And honestly, for movies like Boogeyman, Blackening, No Hard Feelings, and Strays, their theatrical runs are basically just glorified advertisements for their PVOD/digital runs. So really we got 5 bigly movies competing. And a couple of them will probably bomb and legs will probably be weaksauce for most of them due to smaller audiences and emphasis on PLFs, but that's just how the cookie crumbles. It's really not as crazy as it seems IMO and it's not like putting them a month or two later would magically make things easier or make them gross significantly higher. -
Gotta be honest that until today, I thought Richard Dreyfuss died like 10 or 15 years ago. Which to be fair, the only movie in the last 10 years I recognize on his Wikipedia page was Book Club.

To be fair, I don't think she's that good an actress. Maybe her Bollywood stuff is better, but I've seen her in stuff like White Tiger and Matrix Resurrections and Quantico and she's always been the weakest part. Would love to be proven wrong of course. -

Fair enough. If a lot of people here think it's annoying when I say "okay", then I won't do it anymore. -

Eric the Clown replied to Eric the Clown's topic in Numbers and Data
I just like using "okay" because I think saying it is funny and/or I'm just not interested in continuing an argument or conversation. Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't think saying "okay" is a bad thing or something a mod shouldn't do. It's just a word. -

I remember after the Oscars happened A24 was hyping up how they were going to make more midbudget titles like Beau in the future, and that always felt a little too premature for a company that's only had one movie make over $100 million worldwide. And while I don't think they had sky-high hopes for this movie to break out, I wouldn't be surprised if they reverse course and stick back to their microbudget roots. -

Okay. Still think the sequel would have dropped like most sequels to breakout movies do. -

Because it's the perfect one. Both are kids movies that will skew towards youngsters, both have established fanbases, both will have a large nonwhite audience. Like that's the perfect combo. -

Does being a "final adventure" really matter anymore? Like most "finale" movies don't really get any bump for being the last adventure. Which granted part of this is because most of those films are crap (Halloween Ends, Rise of Skywalker), but I feel like it's hard to get excited over a "final adventure" when, deep down, you know there will be a new movie eventually. Movie franchises are never allowed to end anymore, and I think most assume there will be another Guardians of the Galaxy at some point, or that Groot will be in another Avengers movie or whatever. And I'm sure within the next 10 years they will bring them back as a way to bring in nostalgia. The next Fast and Furious movie (not the one in two weeks, the one after that) is for sure going to be billed as "The Last Fast" and get a bunch of "It All Ends Here" marketing, but like we all know Vin Diesel's gonna force it back 8-12 years later to get an easy paycheck. Finales just aren't special anymore. -

No offense, but if Black Panther 2's considered "too depressing", then most people have simply not seen enough depressing movies. -

Eric the Clown replied to Eric the Clown's topic in Numbers and Data
I mean even if Chadwick was still with us, Black Panther 2's box office would probably be the same? Like the first Black Panther had a major novelty factor and hype that you can't replicate in a sequel. It was always going to drop. Its drop was no different than a Chamber of Secrets or Lost World or whatever -

They put one of those Potter stores here in Times Square recently, which is just hilarious to me. Like at this point, every Potter fan I know bought a wand at Universal? How much more do you need????? -

Well I think Black Panther is this gen’s Star Wars because it’s a really good movie that I really like. -
