Still early, but 2023's starting to feel like a combination of 2019 and 2014. 2019 where there's major divides between the haves and have nots, with most of the haves coming from Disney, and a whole bunch of bombs. But also like 2014 where the highs really aren't all that high compared to previous years. I don't see any movie crossing 500M this year. But the one upside, unlike 2019, is that this March will have Creed 3, Scream 6, and John Wick all making very strong grosses, which shows the value in midbudget franchsies like these. Seeing those films soar will help ease the burn when the giant-budgeted Shazam and D&D crash and burn. Then you got Mario the first week of April, which means we'll have a fairly solid spring before the summer onslaught. Creed - 45 (honestly I think this would be a really good opening considering the lack of Rocky and no Thanksgiving holiday to boost it up) Scream - 40 Shazam - 35 65 - 10 Wick - 70 D&D - 15 All told, not a bad March.

Still, the biggest demo that came out was the 25-34 crowd at 30%. I do agree the lack of Rocky does alienate some of the crowd (and this is coming from somebody who really didn't care for Creed II and all the forced Rocky nostalgia bait), but that is something to consider that a big, young crowd still cares about these movies and I don't think it's entirely because of Stallone being in the background.

The Disney Thread | Happy 90th to Donald Duck!
Eric the Clown replied to A Marvel Fanboy's topic in Box Office Discussion
It's probably just going to be the same thing they've already done. A bunch of ABC and FOX shows have already been sold to different streamers. Desperate Housewives and Lost already air on like 2 or 3 different streaming services right now. Random Fox/Touchstone movies get plopped onto Amazon or Tubi for a couple months all the time. It's really not as big a deal as the press has been hyping this up as if I'm being honest. -

Still weird to me how we had so many prominent mainstream LGBT hits in the 90s with stuff like The Birdcage, Philadelphia, In & Out. Then like TV had Will and Grace and Broadway had Rent. And then there was like...no momentum once we got to the 2000s, apart from Oscar nominees like Brokeback Mountain and Milk. These kinds of comedies and dramas were still prominent and popular in the 2000s thanks to the home video market. But we barely got anything from mainstream Hollywood. Even in the early 2010s, when these types of midbudget movies were still a thing, we barely got crumbs despite Glee and Modern Family being on the air. I don't get it.

I agree that people want sunshiny rainbow escapism, which is...a whole other gross can of worms. But using that to explain why a divisive film from a very divisive filmmaker, whose premise and ad campaign isn't as strong a hook or as easy to sell compared to a beach turning people old was, in a genre that while consistently a downer and sad and bleak is one of the few genres that consistently makes solid money...yeah no, I don't buy that "people don't wike being sad :(((((((" argument here. It'll be even funnier when Scream 6 and The Boogeyman both become hits.
