    So glad Dreamworks had a solid 2022. Would really love to see them come back as an animation powerhouse.

    I refuse to believe that Paul King could make a terrible movie.

    Looks far more interesting than Neeson's recent movies. That being said, it'll probably end up with a similar gross to Blacklight/Honest Thief/etc.

    No chance with your second point. What film in the 2023 lineup could possibly take down TFA (dom, I'm assuming)?
  5. DAJK
    You are… really invested in this movie You running Dreamworks or something? I kid, I kid of course.

    I'm still not confident in a nomination. I could see it happening, which would be awesome to see a blockbuster/comic book movie being recognized in this way. But even with a nom, a WIN would be a long shot.

    Oh INCLUDING p&a. Makes more sense lol.

    Watching Plane, I could definitely see it costing in the 20M range as opposed to 50M. If it really did cost 50, I have no clue where that $ went, because it certainly isn’t up on the screen.

    Apparently it started with "you're sitting in my seat" and simply escalated from there. And I mean ESCALATED.

    Lol my friend who manages a movie theatre sent me a snapchat last night telling a story. One of the staff members called her on the radio saying: "Hey could you come downstairs? There's a fight happening?" "Where?" "Theatre 19." Fights are common enough. You get a PG-13 horror movie, and the rowdy teenagers are always scrapping. You know what movie they have playing in theatre 19?

    You must be just a bundle of joy

    Otto is a beast locally, not just at my local theatre, but pretty much everywhere I’m looking in pacific British Columbia. If I had no other data on how it’s doing domestically, I’d be looking at these numbers and assuming this was a 30M opener.

    My showing was pretty packed last night.

    Hopefully Otto this weekend gives CJohn faith in theatres again.
  15. DAJK
    Oof.

    This wasn’t bad. I wouldn’t go as far as @CJohn but, at the very least, as far as January action films go, you could do a lot worse. Felt like mid-tier post-Taken Liam Neeson imo, not as bad as Taken 3 or Blacklight, but not as good as The Grey.

    Plane is just an ok movie. Walkups weren’t awful for it, but I can’t see it having stellar WOM that really propels it. 700k just Thursday previews (850 including sneaks) and 9M for the 4-day seems about right. I loved Otto, and so did the (heavily walkup) crowd I saw it with. Over 75% of tickets for my screening were bought within 30 minutes of start time. Wouldn’t be surprised with 15M 4-day.

    I just realized Searching only made 26M domestic in 2018. For some reason I thought that was a 75M hit or something lol. Can't see this opening to more than 5M. If it makes half of what the original did, that would almost be a win for it.

    See quoted post below, it's having the patterns more of a four-quadrant film rather than a "kids" film, which is why I feel like weekend increases may be slightly muted. That being said... EDIT FROM WHAT I SAID EARLIER: I didn't realize Puss's last weekend was 13.5M. Thought it was 12M lol, so my 8.5 prediction is definitely too low. Thinking 9.5 or 10.
  21. DAJK
    I mean... you might be kind of right Showman's Wed gross on Jan 10 was 1.32M, which is 16% ahead of Puss's number today. Over MLK weekend, Showman did 12.5M 3-day and 16.2M 4-day. If Puss can match that, I will be all on board the "Greatest Showman" train. Although I'm thinking it will be closer to 8.5/11 or somewhere around there.
  22. DAJK
    Is it just me or are these weekday dailies... incredibly strong? Especially for a kids-oriented film like Puss in Boots.
  23. DAJK
    If this can match the last film's gross, I would consider that a huge win. I do wonder though if Jenna is actually going to be a bigger draw for 2023 audiences than Neve Campbell would have been (I know that sounds blasphemous but just speaking box office-wise).
  24. DAJK
    Starting to think Knock at the Cabin could be a bit of a breakout (as long as it's good). Will likely outgross Old at the very least.
  25. DAJK
    Oh boy that makes me excited lol. In all honesty though, I'm looking forward to this. Hopefully seeing it tomorrow night.
