The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo
titanic2187 replied to grim22's topic in Numbers and Data
I was hoping for at least 13m for true friday. This doesn't put a smile on face. Assuming 46m 3 days for AQP2 and some 16m for Cruella. Overall box office is likely to top 70m or even 75m. Of course this is higher than MK+DS weekend but IMO, it is simply not high enough. 2021's MW is likely to be 60% lower than that of in 2019. This is actually far better than 80% that we have seen since beginning of the year. At least the gap is closing. -
The premise sound very very dumb but when I see director name.....everything is explained. Roland emmerich fame basically go down in line with the decline of disaster genre and I doubt he can revitalize the genre in anyway. Hope Lionsgate can still make some bucks out of this. 140m is not a small budget for a mid-sized studio.

I am very surprised MGM is still worth 8.5b, that lion logo probably made up half of the value.

I honestly got disinterested after seeing the trailer, especially with James Wan is no longer in charge but these solid reactions got my interest reignited. -
China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30
titanic2187 replied to A Marvel Fanboy's topic in China At The Box Office
AQP2 last minute release could be because of they realise F9 drop too fast and that jeopardize their May's goal so that quickly give AQP2 a pass in the hope it can make up some ground from F9's disastrous leg which they clearly didn't expect. -
4.8m for AQP2 is 0.2m lower than what I hoped for but it is not low enough to distort my hope for 50m 3 days. Exhibition needs a record breaker to boost confidence and give them some leverage against studio and streamer. 30m 3 days projected by Variety is not enough and it shouldn't been regarded as "Not a big deal if AQP2 debut to 30m". GvK pandemic record has to go down now. Theaters can't afford to wait until F9 or BW in July for that.

Is that common that your theater have this many empty seats? Doesn't look like a profitable venue for me or people are still haunted by 2000+ daily cases? -

Somehow Cruella can get 3892 theaters. Disney power. -
Mar 27 is a very late date. Is there any justification given by AMPAS? This is going to be very hard for those film that like capitalize on Oscar bump until Oscar night.

Too bad. Emily went on Jimmy show last year to promote AQP2 just before the shutdown. Now she has to do it all over again. Haven't really see other in the cast like Murphy or Hounsou or even Simmonds appear in big scale event to promote AQP2. John has been doing this alone until now he finally got some help from Emily -

Actually what he said is not that crazy at all, the 1st AQP did 188m, that is arguably within same range as F8 and H&S. So I won't be surprised if both come close with their follow-ups , regardless in pre or post covid world. -

Actually I have it at 50m 3days including preview. I mean, there are too many improvements since GvK that I cannot ignore such as higher capacity , higher theater count, higher vaccination rate, lower cases and death. And not to mention AQP2 is an theater exclusive with more positive review than GvK, And before pandemic shutdown, AQP2 was tracking 55m-70m. Those were not blind forecast months before the debut. They were based on buzz created by real marketing push and pre-sale. So this is the goal that people should aim for. Although no way 55m-70m is attainable given current circumstances,, it is still crucial to see how close we can up against the pre-covid tracking. -

I saw John Kra went to few screening across USA to surprise moviegoers during AQP2 preview. He did this in Miami, NY and more to come. Although this make me wonder just how many previews out there, before AQP2 have its official preview on 27 Apr. -

If current trend continues, mid-July reopening is way too slow and unnecessarily strict. California (with similar population size as Canada) reopened their cinema back in mid-Mar where number of cases were at 4000. They should allow cinema to operate at 25% at least by mid-June, provided the improvement and vaccination continue to show progress. Canada vaccination progress mirror those of UK , where they emphasize on first dose coverage before going full force on 2nd.
