    1989 is my least favorite Taylor album (although Style and Blank Space are spectacular) so between the two of us we have a hot take for sure 


    As a whole though I wouldn’t call it a hot take. Individual tastes may vary but it’s inarguably her most popular album. The TV could challenge Midnights 1st week numbers, which is just further indicative of how big/loved the original was.

    Wow October 11, 1989 sure was a popular day in the maternity ward for BOT members. Happy birthday all you silly (very real, definitely not bot or spam accounts) geese! Hope it's a good one!


    I think you should tag everyone who is having a birthday today 😮‍💨

    100% this. 50 OW will be the new “norm” for a cbm that isn’t building some degree of “event film” interest, with plenty potential for lower for the ones people outright don’t care about. We are officially done with “you get a 100+ OW and you get a 100+ OW AND YOU GET A 100+ OW!!” like it’s easy Oprah money in this genre. 


    Apart from the MCU, when was this ever a common thing for comic book films? Sure some films fit that target but the majority did not. And as for the MCU itself, even if The Marvels doesn’t get there they still had the last 7 movies hit over $100M OW.

    Random question which may have minimal impact on box office and sorry if it's already been mentioned/discussed to death.

     

    Any thoughts on RT score here? Or any embargo dates? Not really sure how reviewing this type of movie works and if there are special features or new content that would even warrant an embargo.

     

    Had a look at a few prior concert movies just now and to my (perhaps naïve) surprise all had fresh scores, except the Jonas Brothers...

     

    Just thinking aloud a red tomato may help walkups a bit for any non-swifties still on the fence but appreciate given the genre it would probably not make much difference ultimately.


    I can’t imagine any RT score mattering, even a high one, and since the details of the concerts are already widely known amongst her community there shouldn’t be any kind of embargo.

    The Marvels Presales are starting tomorrow

     

    MTC1 opening day presales for past 4 movies

     

    1) Guardians 3 - 68696 // 2nd day morning number

    2) Antman - ~88.5k

    3) Wakanda - 110K

    4) Thor 4 - 136.5

     

    What would be a good target. Eternals sold something in low 30s. That is the base minimum. Anything close to Guardians is good. If its above that its terrific. 

     

     


    45-50K is my estimate

    Totally agree that a 200M OW has no chance at this stage. Hard to know even a range though as we haven’t seen this hype in the genre before. I’m currently sitting my guess in the 125-140 OW window. What would you say the odds are of a >200M domestic total are considering the likely massive week over week drops?

     

    2nd weekend presales are relatively strong, and since it's only playing on the weekends it might not be quite as massive of a drop as some expect. Right now my current expectations are something like 120-45-22-13 for the first four weekends.

    $200M probably not happening but I still think the casual Tay fans could order their tickets late (due to no refunds) and fuel it to a bigger opening than Barbie

     

    $140-170M feels like the range to me

     


    I think if that was going to happen we would start seeing the acceleration at this point. While some people will wait until the last minute to coalesce plans, most won’t. Especially not in her fandom. This isn’t to say there won’t be any walkups or ramp up in the final week, just that as a % of what has already sold it will look pretty weak.
