The Wild Eric

Ronan feels like a given. Pugh will probably get some notices too, especially since she's having a banner year, and is looking to breakout (her next project is Black Widow)

That's a 45% jump from Monday. By comparison Fallout had a 38% jump on its first Tuesday (yes, I know discount Tuesday is way crazier nowadays than it was last year)

You may roll your eyes at the rap in the trailer, but that's just following tradition from the last two movies.

Obviously, don't take this stuff seriously.

Tomorrow's probably the real deal-breaker on whether this breaks out or not, but things are looking rosy.

I'm hoping it's just my area, but if this is supposed to break out, it should have probably done much better today. Maybe Wednesday and Thursday can change things around?

Speaking of Sum 41...

Feels a little awkward to have this air in 2020, but I'm still excited.

It reminds me of when USA Network delayed the Shooter TV series with Ryan Phillipe like 3 times due to a series of police shootings that occurred around the time the show was set to premiere. Trashmerica ladies and gents

Never mind, I found what Mori was talking about I honestly don't think you can make a new Home Alone anything nowadays, unless it was set in the 90s or earlier. With cell phones and home security nowadays, the movie would end in like 5 minutes.

ESPN+ isn't that great of a package though, outside of UFC and I guess cricket. They don't have NFL, NBA, MLB, or NHL for obvious reasons, so their big tentpoles are stuff considered add-ons like college sports or tennis or non-FIFA soccer. But hey, if you're going to get both Disney+ and Hulu, people will probably throw that one in too. wait whu?

Chad Iger already making a power move on the Virgin Hastings

You laugh, but that actually did happen in the 90s

It 2's previews over Endgame? Feige's out here quaking in his boots. I kid, I kid. But despite the abnormally large preview #, I guess it does show that interest is still very, very strong. Sure presales are very slow and steady at the moment, but those preview #s at least show there's a lot of demand for this. Of course we can only wait and see how much demand there is in the coming days. Also, now every theater I'm tracking has IT showtimes up...except for one. Times are up, but they aren't available for purchase. I guess the guys in charge of online presales don't really feel like it?

I don't know if it will hit that high, especially since this is a brand, both as a book series and del Toro as a producer, but it's a promising start. If it follows Slender Man or Crawl with that preview, it would cross 20M.

I'm very confused at the people who are all "I wonder what Disney will do for Labor Day". They have always done an expansion for the summer Pixar movie. Every single one. Every single year. Why would Disney do something different all of a sudden?

Not only is there one comp, but said comp is the biggest previews for a PG movie ever, and has an adult/fanboy skew. So yeah, different worlds. So putting that into perspective, we really don't have much to work with. So with that said...eh, I guess it could be worse?
