  1. A24 doesn't seem to have too much on their plate that stands out as overtly baity on paper this year beyond John Crowley's We Live in Time, which will presumably be a showcase for both Pugh and Garfield based on what little is currently known about it. Ari Aster's mega-star-studded Eddington just began filming and will reportedly conclude in May but assume that will be saved for next year. Same with Spike Lee's latest starring Denzel that is still casting. Civil War is probably at most headed for the same nominations Ex Machina received at most (if it connects) since none of his movies have been labeled Actor Showcases to date, though it would be nice if Dunst was in the conversation again after that recent interview where she said she hasn't received much in the way of good offers since her Power of the Dog Oscar nomination made headlines.
  2. Coming to Universal in 2027: The Amazon Where Madame Web's Mother Was Researching Spiders Before Dying.
  3. Pandora: The World of Avatar is indeed amazing. Visited it during my holiday vacation that year (when the lines for everything were crazy long as expected for a brand new section) and was astounded by how much it was like the movie come to life. Obviously, having Cameron completely involved in the project since it was announced helped immensely. I do have a soft spot for both Galaxy's Edge and Toy Story Land as well though.
  4. You do know that there is an entire section of Animal Kingdom based on the original movie that's been visited by millions since it opened nearly 7 years ago (before there were even whispers that Disney would end up inheriting the property through the Fox sale), right?
  5. As I said in the tracking thread earlier it's impossible to imagine this being anything but a colossal sub-$20M total flop. Honestly looks like something that would've tanked hard even a decade ago tbh.
  6. There's another adaptation coming in a few weeks on Netflix with Andrew Scott in the Tom Ripley part (that's in black and white because...I don't know. To stylistically differentiate it from the 1999 movie, perhaps?) and it's been pretty amusing seeing a portion of social media thinking it's ripping off Saltburn (ignoring that not only is it based on a book that's been famously adapted before but also went into production before that movie did). Like give me a break lmao.
  7. The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare looks like an obvious sub-$20M total grosser.
  8. I can't believe, in 2024, we're still having "Avatar has no cultural relevance" arguments after a sequel that was almost as wildly successful. Aren't y'all tired? Especially following Aquaman and Captain Marvel just proving what a billion dollar or more blockbuster that clearly didn't leave much of an impact really looks like.
  9. Gladiator 2 is definitely a wild card given its nature but it does have one heck of a strong cast to give it plenty of buzz (including Denzel in a rare supporting role and two members of the new Fantastic Four) so it's all going to come down to marketing and execution. Hoping it's a hit for Paul Mescal's sake since this is arguably the most high-profile gig he's landed to date.
  10. The holidays look like they could be potentially busy. November needs to be spaced out a bit now that Venom moved though since Gladiator 2, Moana 2, and Wicked are all currently set to come out between the pre-Thanksgiving frame through the holiday itself (and the latter has clearly staked its claim on the big weekend).
  11. It's a Neon release. They still haven't managed to leave the same footprint as, say, A24 has - their only $20M+ grossers remain Parasite and I Tonya, both of which were obviously largely assisted by awards buzz.
