None of the Despicable Me movies are all that, and they still make billions. You can have a bunch of Minions play Go Fish for 90 minutes and the masses will still turn up to it like robots.

Moderation Not the Taylor Swift thread.

Still insane this is outopening all but one A24 movie. Hoping this will lead to Neon getting a better foothold in the indie scene. We can't just have A24/Searchlight doing all this.

This seems destined to do about 400-600M worldwide, sell a lot of dolls, have people argue over whether it's actually a hit or not, and be forgotten about 9 months later. Either way, not gonna be fun for me!

Moderation @Insomnia Instead of detailing threads with this kind of inflammatory rhetoric, then saying “we don’t need to derail this thread anymore”, how about you just…don’t derail the thread in the first place? You don’t have to post contemt that you know will start pointless, nonsensical drama. So don’t.

it’s actually fairly solid and standard with modern re-releases. It’s on par with Shrek 2, and better than The Mummy. These things just don’t do much more than 1-2M really, barring the occasional Avatar or Phantom Menace rerelease.

Honestly, Fly Me is in a weird spot where the timeline and concept really only appeals to the olds like my mom who grew up in the 60s, which puts it at a disadvantage considering the olds don’t go to movies anymore. Plus the romcom stuff was basically ignored in favor of the faked moon landing story, which just seemed very silly and out of left field. Plus kind of tone-deaf, considering how harmful these conspiracies are in today’s climate. And it doesn’t seem they’re going for some Adam McKay-style “look at these idiots” angle. Add on the issue of not being an NTC, and middlig reviews, and there was really nothing to grab onto or get excited about.

You have no idea how scared I was when I saw this GIF, thinking it would show...well...

Moderation One more disrespectful post like this and you will leave me with no choice but to give you a thread ban. Don’t do this again.

So we're probably getting... 1. DM4: 42.7M 2. Longlegs: 21M 3. Inside Out 2: 19.3M 4. A Quiet Place: 11M 5. Fly Me: 8M 6. Bad Boys: 4.5M 7. Maxxxine: 2.5M

Yes, but that's typically only something you get if you're a subscriber. @whatsupdoc shared some projections of theirs a few months ago here on teh forum.

I don't like using the whole "who is the audience for this" for movies, but in Harold's case...who does this actually appeal to?

Honey, I need to be saved too. I'm doomscrolling right now. I'm terrified about all the people I care about being trapped under Project 2025. On the verge of tears tbh. Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
