On an unrelated note to all the lightsabers, while a couple theaters already had it up, just not ones I track, a good number of theaters have Dolittle showtimes (previews start at 5). I'm happy at least that I don't have to spend hours on this one lol

lol the marketing is on point so far

I'm sure people more well-versed in the Chinese box office can answer this for me, but I believe RT's verified score is similar to Maoyan, where scores are often high, but there's still certain marks that can predict WOM. In both cases, 90%+/9.0+ is great to excellent, high 80s is good, mid-to-low 80s is okay, anything below that is concerning, no?

Keith woulda had a Jumanji prediction that made sense. 😠

This was an interesting read

There's just too much opposing evidence for me to say otherwise. So I guess I'll follow the crowd and go with high-30s.

Isn't Andrew Lloyd Weber a Brit too? That probably explains the excitement there

I definitely agree with you there. I made a club a while back that everything that wasn't Disney or DC (I thought Birds of Prey was gonna be big, and...well...) would do sub-250M, and I'm still sticking by that. I at least wanted some form of optimism out there going into the new year, and show people it won't be that bad.

Like obviously Disney's not gonna be as big as they were this year, but their crop still looks good. I think doubting Marvel is kind of a fool's errand, so I'd be very surprised if Black Widow goes below 300M, and #InZhaoITrust for The Eternals. Mulan's getting dinged by the Hong Kong stuff, but it's still looking to be huge. Their animated stuff is so far landing in their marketing IMO. It'll at least be nice to see some original stuff land in the top 10 this year. Really, if everything goes right, I can see Soul do something like 400M. Wonder Woman will be huge too. Wouldn't surprise me if it gets to like 450M or something. Top Gun 2 will get seen by every dad on the planet. It also helps that it's not like Terminator or Charlie's Angels where a bunch of crap movies or shows damaged the property. Trolls 2 should also see a decent increase (I'm telling you, kids are crazy for those little guys). The No Time to Die trailer was kinda lame, but it can probably coast on being Craig's swan song I guess. In the Heights and West Side Story should both play well with their demos and keep the musical success train going. Fast 9 and Venom 2 will drop, but should still do okay. Tenet is probably going to be in the vicinity of 200M. And I guess Sopranos nostalgia will be a thing. I'm only optimistic for Dune because my baby's in it, but I can see it come out of nowhere and surprise people. Otherwise...yeah, 2020 is going to be a yuck year.

Also, I looked up "star wars", "star wars tickets", "star wars refund" and whatever on Twitter, and I have yet to see these screen caps Cappoe is talking about. I'm sure they exist, but a bunch of randos sending out a tweet that probably only has like three likes isn't really some sort of movement or whatever.

Will watch later, but I thought Fandom was going to stop videos until January. That's not a bad thing

Okay
