It's actually not that set in stone as the DOM market is. Depends a lot on distributors, holidays etc. My point was, the drop next week will likely seem bigger than it is, given this 90m weekend is quite inflated, Overall this might crawl past 400m, but I don't see it higher than that. We seem at odds concerning this movie and it is not my intention to cause trouble here, so let's just agree to disagree and let the numbers talk for themselves over the next couple of weeks.

If reviews are good I could see Gucci doing 30m OW. True, older audiences are more reluctant these days, but it's not like we don't see movies like Dune or NTTD reaching higher numbers. And aside from those, did we really have any big adult titles, in wide release, with any real hype released lately? You could argue The Last Duel but that never had hype, the trailer views are abysmal, especially for a movie with a well known cast.

The Mandalorian | March 2023 for S3
James replied to Fullbuster's topic in Streaming, TV Series, & VOD Movies
It was ok, but it was 100% filler. Do we really need filler episodes in such a short season? I mean, we are halfway through the season and the plot is still not picking up. Considering how much mythology they have to draw from, I am surprised this is what we are getting. -
The Mandalorian | March 2023 for S3
James replied to Fullbuster's topic in Streaming, TV Series, & VOD Movies
I hoped for better. I don't understand why these 2 episodes were separate. They would have sort of made sense as a single episode. But other than that, where is the budget? This is supposed to have a 12m per episode budget (seeing how there are only 8 episodes). That's GOT level but that doesn't show at all. GOT had so many characters so actors had to be paid. Here there are hardly a few actors. Similar with VFX. Yoda's face looked ok, but the movement... it was so obvious it was a puppet. Unless we get a huge VFX spectacle at the end of the season, I don't get where the money is. -

This. The soundtrack was a bit disappointing also. But the reveal at the end was exciting. -

Looks good and I am excited but the fact that they decided for some stupid reason to release one episode per week ugh... I think I will wait till it's done. Netflix got me used to binging. -
Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker 558m OS 1.073B WW
James replied to Jamiem's topic in International Box Office
600-650m maybe. -
I would freakin love for that to happen, evn if Chalamet is the worst possible actor for Paul. I just want to see sci fi doing well.

I think WW and Mulan have the biggest chance. Honestly, it will be good to have the riches more evenly distributed. Maybe smaller films or riskier projects like Dune will have more of a chance to break out. 2019 so far feels very unevetful in terms of BO surprises.

I am no Avatar fanboy. I think the movie is just ok. But how are poeple still underestimating Cameron? Avatar 2 will be stupidly huge. Maybe even new king of the WW box office huge.

Can't wait for all this Endgame thing to go away so we can properly track Pika. -

Isn't DP distributed by WB? Why is Universal there?
