Simple. They'll just...put out press tour stuff after the fact. They'll publish interviews after the trailer comes out. It's likely these interviews already have material not intended for public consumption yet. Do you really think interviews come out the day after they are done? It's usually done in advance and deliberately chosen to come out in certain parts of the marketing campaign. And even if it was, I'm still confused by the whole "You can't put a Thor trailer/press junket interview the same time Strange tickets go on sale". Marvel's been able to do mulitple marketing campaigns before without overshadowing the other. Do you all really think people will just be like "golly gee whiz, Thor 4 looks cool. Oh Strange tickets are out. Thor 4 is no longer in my memory"? People can in fact look at two separate things, especially when Doctor Strange tickets only take like one minute of a person's time. I really think you need to relax a little bit. Trust me when I say, Thor 4's not in any danger whatsoever.

Still, Pain and Gain, which had two of the biggest box office powerhouses of that time, and Bay off the peak of Transformers' popularity, barely got to 20M in 2013. Even adjusted, you get to about 25M. What exactly is the big hook/draw for Ambulance that can help it match Pain and Gain?

I guess that means we're going inbetween? Regardless, we're in for a strong debut this weekend.

Studios in general have a bad capitalist mindset of short-term profits and fear of the future. When COVID spikes, they only think about the short-term and run away from it. Plus in some respects, they can just plop it on their streaming service, get some headlines, and then call it a day. And also studios don't care about theatrical and are only begrudgingly accepting they need it. Not to say they won't abandon it again in due time. Sure it may seem silly this happens again and again, but garbage capitalism means the big studios can make the same mistakes again and again and never get hurt from it. It's funny if it wasn't so terrible.

Again, I'm still not sure why people were thinking Ambulance had much potential. I love Jake and Yahya, but those aren't really big stars, and Michael Bay hasn't had a real big non-Transformers hit in forever. Even the likes on YouTube's trailers aren't all that great. Would it really go any further than like...60M? 13 Hours and Pain and Gain had more going for them, and they only did 50M. I'm just lost here.

Moderation @VENOM Your whole "NWH isn't actually an MCU movie" stuff is beyond old. It was old when you did this back in the Doctor Strange 2 thread, it's even older now, everybody here is sick of it, and it all seems to indicate you're trying to troll MCU fans instead of offering anything constructive. If you start this again, you will see warning points.

Bay's last non-Transformers film to cross 100M was Pearl Harbor over 20 years ago. Pain and Gain, even with significant starpower, only opened to 20.2M. Adjusted for inflation only gets it to like 25M. It's not a good track record to have.

I mean I knew it was an April Fools joke, but it didn't seem like it translated to others. Of course I'm super jaded and think April Fools Day is a disease, so don't take my thoughts too seriously I suppose
