    Insidious falling off the map tonight. Wouldn’t be surprised with like an 8M Saturday.

    Lol I got stood up by the girl I was supposed to see Blockers with, which kind of soured the experience but it was still a fun movie

    I mean, Days of Future Past kind of gave us that. That being said… Gimme a Fassbender/McKellan scene together lol.

    I thought Game Night was pretty great. Good Boys was good too.

    Those have to be true friday #s right? No way Insidious does only 8M Friday after 5M Thursday. Also, thanks for the numbers @Shawn!

    Holy shit, Insidious walk-ups are excellent. I’m looking at recent horror comps in my area, and the best I can find is genuinely Scream 6. Now, I’m not saying this is coming for a 40M+ opening, but this is doing WELL.

    Seriously guys, if Oppenheimer wasn’t directed by Nolan and was just a WW2 3-hour R-rated biopic about the inventor of the atomic bomb, it would be opening to like 8M in 2023. Of course Nolan is a draw.

    Do be fair, Gen Z doesn’t know who Steven Spielberg is.

    Yea something about this feels off. Not sure if it feels cheap, if the editing of the trailer feels off, but it almost feels like a knock-off of the first film rather than a sequel. Regardless of how bad The Nun was, it had excellent atmosphere and production values. This does feel like the budget was either slashed or the director/DP don't have as strong a visual sensibility for this type of film. Could just be the trailer though.

    Joy Ride feels like a non-starter (unfortunate, I thought it could be the next Girls Trip… oh well) so I doubt it’s effect on NHF will be substantial.

    I’ll tell ya right now, there are quite a few locations that don’t have higher ticket sales for Barbie simply because they’re sold out, and aren’t adding more screens.

    Knew it had to be coming sometime! Well done everyone, and thanks for another great season @SLAM!. Good luck to everyone else still going, I’m betting on all of you!

    This is gonna be like Dracula Untold all over again. “This is the start of the shared universe! Oh wait… it bombed? Yea nevermind lol.”

    Time to bring back some BOT classics. Gravity isn’t sci-fi. Jurassic World is crumbling. John-C-Nah. Parking lots. Shirtless pics for Asgard. Take your pick…

    Something I was thinking would happen at the beginning of summer, but ultimately did not come to pass… I think it’s safe to say that Aladdin 2.0 The Little Mermaid is not.

    It was almost always because the people next to or behind them complained.

    When I worked at a movie theater, I can confirm that nearly every single time people were doing sexual things during a movie, it was a kids movie. The exceptions were It and Zoolander 2. But yup. Had to deal with stuff during The Emoji Movie, Pixels, Ice Age 5, Incredibles 2, Minions 1 and 2, and Sing 2.

    The Flash was great though.

    Insidious isn’t looking half bad over here, and Pacific NW isn’t exactly horror movie hub. I wouldn’t be shocked if it came in with around 25M or so. Joy Ride on the other hand looks dismal, which is sad/shocking because these are the markets where it should be doing well. Maybe high single digits.

    The thing studios need to realize is that nostalgia should be a tool, not a crux.

    To this day, the movie that does the “old broken hero going back to and trying to recapture their glory days” the best is The Incredibles, and anyone who disagrees is just simply wrong.

    How does the holiday work in the US with the 4th falling on Tuesday? In Canada, we have Monday off for Canada Day, and I’m seeing some pretty consistent increases for Indy across the board today. Is it the same in the States?

    The problem with these massive studio flops is that the people who are going to suffer most are the consumer. Your D+ subscription is going to go up to 18.99 a month to make up for Disney’s insane spending on DOD/Elemental. Ticket prices will continue to increase much faster than inflation. Corporations never lose.

    I could genuinely see Blue Beetle opening in the teens.
  25. DAJK
    It’s like 2014 all over again when everything was opening in the 90M range Only now, it’s the 60M range, and budgets are even higher.
