    Maybe I'm being a bit TOO optimistic here, but hear me out...

     

    I think Disney seeing how massive IO2 is could demonstrate to them the value of CREATING ip. Sure, right now they are mining old IP, but at the same time, Inside Out is a relatively new IP compared to the stuff they usually mine. Seeing how popular these original films can become if they are truly beloved can hopefully incentivize them to focus on creating new IP in the future. 

    You’re adorable. Wrong! But adorable.

    Prolly seeing IO 2 with the missus tomorrow night, but it just dawned on me that this will be the first $100m+ OW grosser I watch where I didn't even see the trailer for haha. Excited to see a critically acclaimed blockbuster with absolutely no knowledge on anything (I guess this is where I log off until after the screening).

     

    Nice to see the box office healthy again; hopefully a signal for things to come 🤞 

    YOU’RE MARRIED WHAT

    I thought Barbie and Oppenheimer have good walk-ups.

     

    Also, Inside Out skew towards Black/Hispanic? That's insteresting. I've always thought its main audience was white.

    There can be exceptions of course, but this is a general rule of thumb.

     

    And yeah, it's not confirmed confirmed, but Pixar movies typically perform well in Latin America, I believe Inside Out 2 is performing well in Hispanic-skewing areas according to the tracking team, and animated movies typically overindex on Hispanic viewership for whatever reason. Caucasians will likely still be the biggest demo percentage-wise, but I'm assuming it'll be somewhere in the 30s.

  4. Big Hero 6 has the vibes where it was a big hit when it came out, but I never see anybody talking about it anymore. Like all the other Revival movies have people still making references to it, toys being sold, rumblings online. But I think the last time I ever saw somebody talk about Big Hero 6 out there in the wild was probably like...7 years ago? Guess part of it is just that Marvel fans have bigger, more exciting things to gush over? I dunno.

    Didn’t people say the same thing about The Fall Guy? I feel a lot of films in the past year were supposed to have some sort of walkups, but they just never manifested.

     

    IO2 is also a different beast, it’s only really comparable to something like Kung Fu Panda 4 ramping up at the last minute.

     

    I just don’t see where the interest, let alone excitement, is for Twisters. At least not yet. Or why we should assume a bunch of flyover state people or whatever you want to call them will show up in droves at the last minute.

    I think the one thing that has been consistent, and I'm sure the tracking team can correct me if I'm wrong, is that movies that skew more white typically have bad walk-ups. Elvis, Indiana Jones, Fall Guy, Furiosa, Flower Moon. I think even Top Gun didn't really have big walk-ups.

     

    By contrast, stuff skewed more towards Black/Hispanic viewers typically have bigger walk-ups. So GxK, Equalizer, Creed, Apes, Minions, Kung Fu Panda, Inside Out, etc.

     

    So yeah. Not a great sign for Twisters, though I believe the consensus is it should still cross 40M at least, maybe even 50M. That's still fine.

    It seemed like a perfectly kid friendly movie from that trailer cut. Is it, uhh... not?

    Quote

    When a human or creature is decapitated, an effect resembling a fountain of blood will shoot from the neck for a few seconds and stop. Some weapons cause enemies to split in half, the top being separated from the waist. During the course of the game, characters make jokes about streaking, body parts, rape, and mothers (e.g., "…more busted than my momma's girly parts"). Strong profanity (e.g., "f*cking," "sh*t," "p*ssy," and "d*ckbag") can be heard in the dialogue.

    Okay, gonna be honest here -- I had no idea Borderlands even existed until I got the trailer for it last night but it looked... passable entertaining?

     

    Also didn't know about Wild Robot before that seemed likewise likely to be okayish 

    lol what was Borderlands doing playing in front of a kids movie?

    Any bombs yall looking forward too?

     

    Won't lie. I can't wait to see Borderlands crater. That's going to be epic l.

    Looking forward to bombs is kind of weird. Like unless it has Harvey as a producer, or it’s a movie promoting something horrible, why would you want a movie to be a failure?

    It's not the NWH thread but weekend threads can get a bit shooting the shit about random stuff while we wait for a real number to come in, so:   

    Yeah as a purely factual objective matter NWH was extremely well received 

     

    The nostalgia of villains+T&A largely carried that, the actual plot was pretty painfully stupid and that's not exactly revisionism plenty of people were saying as much at the time

    Yeah you can talk about this stuff while we wait for numbers. But you have people sniping at each other, trolling, being mean. And like…we don’t need that. We really don’t need that.
