After crawdads and HG prequel, maybe it is time to consider if the post-covid BO dynamic shifts has made female driven book adaptation more leggy ?
Similar situation happened to horror, today horror is no longer a frontloaded genre like we used to assume.

How do people want Lively to "dress" appropriately during marketing for IEWU? Covered in bruise and blood?

I don't actually think 2023 was that strong for awards contenders. PGA went 10/10 for Picture and there was never really anything outside of those ten that ever got close. Color Purple only got a Picture nomination at CC, which no one cares about. Saltburn was DOA, All of Us Strangers flopped hard.
What was even next in line for a Picture nomination, Napoleon? Nyad? May December? The Boy and the Heron?
Actually in a stronger year, all BP nomination across different precursors tend to match each other, suggest the support was passionate enough to crowd out any potential spoilers. In Only in a weaker year, different precursors tend to have different set of nominees due to lack of consensus for the “on the bubble” nominees.

Sony can't be serious with that Sunday drop? Anyway I was hoping IEWU to top 50m OW but turns out it is just way wat too female skewing to rise celling. 84% is simply too much, not even Crawdads (74%) and ABY (67%) were this high. It is clearly not a date-movie and more like lady night movie.

Ok, maybe IO2 can try 40m here. It is going into obon holiday in a very strong position.

I will totally watch this one but come on the title is kind of stupid and lazy I must say. Glad the colour design is still, visually pleasing as always.

As far as Borderlands goes, light candles and say prayers. The Lionsgate movie per industry estimates is eyeing around $4M today and just under $10Mfor the weekend in 5th place.
Universal’s juggernaut of Twisters and Despciable Me 4 are locking third and fourth respectively with $15.4M (-32%) for and $10M (-13%) for the weekend. Twisters will stand at $222.6M at the end of its fourth frame on Sunday while DM4 in its sixth weekend will post a running total of $332.1M.
Outside top 5, it’s NEON’s Cuckoo coming
in at justunder $2M for today and $3M-plus for the weekend.

Yeah. People seem to forget that aspect too.
I didn't mention it because I don't know how big is the percentage of white latinos in USA.
I've understood Americans tend to imagine Latinos with a non-white look. So, white latinos may not be so common in USA?
White Hispanic may not be perceived or self identify as “traditional white” but they are not uncommon. Close to a quarter of Latino/hispanic population in USA are white. And if you include mixed white Latino/ Hispanic, that % can easily go up to 50%. In one or two generation when this white start speaking English natively or less culturally associated to their origin Hispanic culture, they aren’t that different anymore to the traditional white.

I think it's the assumption that the audience need to be represented by protagonists races to really identify with the characters.
However, it has been show Latino audience are going to see movies where the protagonists are white. So, it seems this assumption doesn't work for them.
PS: That said, Black and Asian audience seems to be minimal for this movie. So, I wouldn't say representation doesn't affect the interest from the audience.
I think people tend to forget Hispanic white exist, and they made up very substantial portion of Latino/Hispanic population.

77% now, still under 50 votes. Not a good start but very early days
95% from 250+ votes now. It is not looking bad then.

Open with 100% of RT VA score but only with 50 votes.

What have lionsgate done to deserve this disaster? They have rough 2024 with almost zero positive result to highlight.

Any feelers on National Cinema Day? I know they announce it very close to the day, but we could usually hear some rumors? Would they be going for Sunday Aug. 25th this year?
I got a feeling they would go for Labour Day weekend this year because the last weekend of August this year has Alien in its second weekend, which could be too big for a discount day and dilute its benefit.

If they weren't planning on seeing the movie in theaters anyway what difference does it make? If there's no FOMO in skipping it in theaters then I'd have to assume the same applies to PVOD as well.
I never buy this early PVOD doesn't hurt the BO theory. Yes they may not affect legs but that is because they already hurt the OW from the beginning. Until the yearly BO or monthly BO return to pre-pandemic level, I am not even asking for admission, the statement of PVOD doesn't hurt BO never stand.

wat?
In the past people may have to wait up to 12 weeks before the movie is available digitally, legally of course. 12 weeks is simply too long to avoid to any spoiler. But now with less than a month, it made watching movie digitally spoiler-free a lot easier. Of course this doesn't apply to FOMO movies because they tend to attract more talking thereby making avoiding spoiler a lot harder but for mid-sized movies, people are perfectly fine waiting for a month without getting spoiled.

Why are there Twisters spoilers in this thread? I was looking ahead to it's digital release.
Another example why they shouldn't rush to digital release. It is causing BO leakage because people who don't want to be spoiled are now 'allowed" to have the access to the movie early enough to avoid spoiler too.

People in love have sex, which is what Hollywood really is afraid of so they cut the whole thing and call it a day
Apparently even kisses now lol
I thought only Muslim country censor kiss scene (Yes, kiss scene often got censored here in Malaysia or Indonesia, unless they are 18+), now Hollywood does the same? How is this progressive?

Anyone but you will have turned a few heads.
Yeah, only when they are clearly designed as a romance movie. And what happened? 67% audience are female. Ticket in Paradise got 71%.

Overall, the overseas performance is above both Minions: The Rise of Gru and DM3 at the same point (excluding China). Italy has yet to release.
The international drop was just 29% while individual markets saw strong holds (and some uptick on certain days). Japan dipped just 32% against the opening of Inside Out 2, China was off 20%, Spain (-26%), Netherlands (-15%) and Korea (-21%).

In milestones, D&W is the highest grossing superhero film of all time in Lebanon and Turkey while the cume to date has already surpassed the totals for both previous Deadpool movies in Italy and Spain as well as Netherlands, Poland, Egypt, Greece, UAE, Ukraine, Philippines, Malaysia and India, among others.
QuoteD&W saw a great 41% dip in the sophomore session overseas (with strong holds in several areas) and remains the No. 1 non-local movie in all international markets.

I agree the movie appear leggier but let's not forget the current marketplace simply isn't as crowded as pre-Covid. We are running 8.5bn-9bn aggregate BO this year, that is almost 25% lower than 3 years average before Covid. And we aren't even talking about admission. Number of movies release also a quarter less. If this free up headroom doesn't benefit any holdovers, then the BO is truly dammed. Can you imagine with better legs but movie still can't catch up pre-pandemic number?
