Hot take, but I feel like we could see a Barbenheimer thing going on with Moana 2 and Wicked, albeit on a smaller scale. Like when it comes to non-Disney properties, Disney Adults are obsessed with Wicked. Broadway in general I suppose, but Wicked is a big one that audience loves to pieces. I can totally see something where Disney Adults watch both movies that same holiday weekend and make an event out of it. It's just a combination of two things they already love back to back.

Yes. We don't care. I'm sorry to break the news to you. I understand you're very passionate about r/boxoffice. I know there are a ton of users in there you love to pieces. But this kind of stuff has gotten on folks' nerves and doesn't add much of anything. Plus, is this kind of idolization of random Redditors who got a few miscellaneous predictions right over how much money a silly kids movie made really something you have to do? Is it truly such an incredible, astonishing feat that you have to push these random users down our throats? Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't think that's the case. Now you aren't breaking any rules, so I guess you can do this, if you really think it's more important than breathing that you have to share random Reddit users on here and what they have to say about some silly kids movies, despite everybody on here being annoyed or tired by it. But I hope you recognize that people are starting to get fed up with you every time you do it.

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.

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.

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.
