Avatree

Holy crap at 5.9m previews. I thought this was gonna be a 40 OW. go John.

Give me this.

Just found that tomorrow, Wheatus is playing in the tiny hall in my town. It must be hard being a one-hit wonder band who has to tour the world to scrape every last inch of the barrel from a 20-year old song. Anyway - tickets booked.

well pikachu was a bit rubbish. glad it's doing so bad!

i just watched high flying bird. i have literally no idea what I just watched, I could not understand a word of it. What a waste of time.

so Endgame is doing the absolute worst it could have done? There is no way it could have done worse than it is now?

Brie Larson seems very like deer-in-the-headlights with her sudden extreme A-list fame. All her press interviews she puts across a very forced personality. Fortunately she's fine in the film. I also agree Emily Blunt would have been better, a shame that did not work out.

so Flopachu has made its budget back in its opening weekend. I think Warners will be okay.

what is the OS number for pikachu? the 43m on mojo is from friday not weekend

another $1.6million after a $249k weekend is asking for too much.

no one asked for Avatar, and yet it became the biggest film ever. 🤔

yeah, no spectacle, no CGI and no big sets. sure.

Nope. nope nope nope nope let me click the fuck away from that video

Did not realise it already started filming. Thanks.

i think chloe zhao is directing Eternals not Black widow? not sure there is a BW director yet.

it has plenty of "buzz". It's had very successful marketing on social media and lots of activity / trending. Slaughterhouse year? it's avengers 3rd weekend not its first.

rather than blaming release dates... or competition... or marketing... is it not possible that there are fewer people interested in watching a Pokemon film than you thought?

John Wick over 50M? You are... optimistic.

Greatest Showman is comparable to Titanic and Avatar. It just kept holding and holding and holding, I recall trade publications referring to it as a mini-Titanic, and here on the forum people were eagle eyed watching it get closer and closer to Titanic's 20x multiplier.

the first film is not good but it has a very watchable quality to it. I think i've seen it at least 6 times. second one is very bad.

well, that's the thing, ,studios do make new content, and most of the time they end up flopping and losing studios tens of millions / hundreds of millions. Disney specifically - here are all their big budget films that you could describe as "original" or "new" in the past 10 years: A Wrinkle in time - FLOP Nutcracker - FLOP the BFG - FLOP the finest hours - FLOP tomorrowland - FLOP into the woods - HIT lone ranger - FLOP john carter of mars - FLOP lincoln - HIT sorcerers apprentice - FLOP Now i'm not saying disney cant be blamed for these films doing badly, but just on a correlation level.... can you blame disney for preferring to spend their money on guaranteed money makers?

next summer looks alright at the box office... Jungle Cruise, Black Widow, Top Gun, wonder woman, fast and furious, Ghostbusters, Minions, Pixar, and of course... N.O.L.A.N.

Kids films often start at 4.

I'm not sure that's how that works.

Great to see the return of 90s keyboard loops again! Hope they do the same for Lion King too.
