  2. Yeah, September 3rd is empty across the board at all the theaters I'm tracking. You can buy tickets for NWH or Jaws or Honk for Jesus on any other day that weekend except the 3rd. I have to assume there's some sort of protest or boycott happening, because that is super weird.

  6. Yeah Rogue One's not playing at Regal at all. IMAX at my two Regals w/ IMAX is split between Dragon Ball, a midday showing of Elvis, and a late night showing of TGM. Gives me one less thing to look at, so it's fine.
  7. It is funny how there's always one new day-and-date Peacock movie every quarter. First Boss Baby 2, then Halloween Kills, then Marry Me, then Firestarter, then Honk for Jesus, and now this. Place your bets on what movie for the next quarter's getting this treatment. My money's on that Distant movie with Anthony Ramos they keep delaying again and again.

  9. Was thinking it would do like the 3D re-releases from a decade ago and make about 45M or something. Of course those had a much bigger hook when 3D was the hip new thing, so maybe that's too much?
  10. This is more than just cancelations. If this was a scenario where HBO Max just simply canceled these Cartoon Network shows with no new seasons, it's understandable. If a movie/show was scrapped early in development or even pre-production, I get it. It sucks for people who love those shows or want to see these new movies/series that aren't happening, but that's the nature of the business and a common tactic people in the industry deal with. The problem is they are hiding and deleting completed projects away from the world, which is blatantly anti-art and a ghoulish slap in the face to the creatives that's way worse than simply being canceled. And it seems like the tax write-offs are barely a drop in the water for WBD's debt. Batgirl was directed by the Bad Boys 3 guys. Is it worth giving the cold shoulder to one of the biggest rising director teams? As for the shows and original movies being randomly removed, while they're thankfully available to buy/rent on digital stores (though who knows how long that will last), it's being done with little warning, when the plan was to at least let the creators know, and the money-saving ventures seem miniscule too. The costs to keep them on their servers is probably not much, and lack of residuals being paid is also going against the animators and their healthcare. That's evil stuff right there. And what's more, is that the residuals aren't really that much anyways when it comes to streaming, and the people affected aren't even getting paid that much. The Infinity Train creator blatantly stated he only got about $400 from residuals from voicing one of the characters over one quarter. Meanwhile, HBO Max is still proudly showcasing Friends and ER on the service. And I'm pretty confident Jennifer Aniston's and George Clooney's residuals cost a lot more. So that strategy makes no sense. And even if they do end up getting licensed on Netflix or Amazon, it's not like it can still play on HBO Max. Disney licenses and shares their movies and shows with the competition all the time. Desperate Housewives and Lost are on Hulu and Freevee. The Bernie Mac Show's on Hulu, Amazon Prime, Tubi, and Peacock. Paramount has NCIS and Spongebob on Paramount+ and Amazon/Netflix. And even if those are "legacy content", this is still true of originals. The Orville and Love, Victor are on both Hulu and Disney+, HBO Max originals like The Flight Attendant and Titans have already played on cable, Kamp Koral has aired episodes on Nickelodeon, Zombies 3 just aired on Disney Channel a couple weeks ago. They're all owned by the same company, but there's precedent for streaming originals to move elsewhere. I think it's possible for Infinity Train or An American Pickle to stream on HBO Max and Netflix. Zas can still get that licensing money and they get more exposure which can boost them on both platforms.
