Wonder Woman made over $400M domestically and $800M WW despite the GP being put off by the DCEU and yet WW is not impactful and has no appeal?
Im sorry but I have to laugh.
The reality is that trailer views used to tell us somethings about the box office but because they are so easily manipulated now a days, large fan bases and nostalgia taking effect, they tell us very little. The only thing I’d argue is that original films don’t fall into this and YouTube views may predict interest. But I don’t think trailer views for franchise films are a relevant indicator of hype/box office. There have franchise films with high views that don’t show at the box office and franchise films with less than stellar views yet the film does really well at the box office.
