The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo
Poseidon replied to grim22's topic in Numbers and Data
So quality doesn't seem to have pushed WB to selling it overseas. Reviews are quite decent, especially female critics seem to like the movie. -

If I'm reading those numbers correct, Isn't it romantic is doing fairly good business. Monday sales on Fandango seem on par with Crazy rich Asians, also a wednesday opener. -

The Prodigy should have opened on Super Bowl Weekend. -

That's one side. The other reason is a ridiculously bad schedule that literally has nothing to offer in what usually is a very busy time for german theaters. -

Of course. It's having a dragons balls. -
And how does a Netflix success help the Movie/Cinema-Industry in any case? All a Netflix success does is set peoples bar of expectations lower and makes them forget the magic, a big screen still provides. Cinema makes Comedy a much better experience, it should always be shown for a room full of people.

Making this a Netflix Movie overseas is just so frustrating. So here's, finally, a very well received trailer for a woman centered movie, a genre, that nearly died, and they keep it out of theatres instead of using it, bringing audiences back. I sincerly hope, that one day, studios understand and regret all their faults and self-fulfilling prophecies.

So I finally got to see the movie and there's one thing that came to my eye, nobody has mentioned anywhere. So, Allison Williams has sparkling blue eyes. After the twist reveal, they turn green and in the end of the movie, they seem to even get a brown shade (they seem to get even darker, when Kaluua is choking her). Did I miss something here? Was this important in any case? I know, the movie and lighting is darker in the third act of the movie, but her eyes are definetely not blue anymore.

Amazing that you mention it, because I thought this movie might do quite well in Gemrany. So guess what? Warner sold it to Netflix and the movie is not getting a theatrical release. This is getting beyond ridiculous. They do everything to keep the female crowd from coming to theaters. -

If true, this is sensational stuff, if you consider, that the main character is a CGI Robot, that has all of the screen time. -

That reporter must have mixed something up. This is impossible. Looking at the Arclights, in this case the best attended, Sherman Oakes, MP is selling well, but this sold 60 tickets for the main show on wednesday and barely anything going into the weekend. TLJ had sold out multiple shows and hundreds of tickets at that point. -
Distributors immediately need to stop living in those self-fulfilling prohecies. No, the weekends after TG are not neccessarily bad to open a movie. They are bad, because you open third-rate movies most of the time. Instead,, we are wasting 2 weeks of capacities in movie theaters and open 11! movies in not even 2 weeks from here on. I will repeat it again and again: There are no bad release dates, only movies, people don't want to see. Sony should have known they have a big winner on their hands with Spider Man and opened it earlier.

Isn't that 65/100m for Aquaman quite unrealistic? National Treasure 2 did 31% of its 5D-result on monday and tuesday in 2007. Now they expect Aquaman to be more backloaded, even though its friday will be inflated because of previews being more popular? -
Very happy for Sony. After years of suffering, things finally seem to work out for them again more often. I orininally thought, the style might not connect with the Mainstream Audiences, but with those reviews on top, I can see this one break out big time now.

I actually had the movie at $50m/$220m in my monthly preview. Might (and did on OW) come in a bit lower in the end, but who cares?
-
I'm with you there, feels like a heartwarming and typical November release that might be the family alternative set in the real world, just like "Wonder" or "The Blind Side".
-
Coco did $2,3m last year... HT3 did $2,6m in July. I'm not sure what to think of that number.
-
So ASIB might reach $200m even before the Oscars play a part. Quite impressive.

FB is slowly, but steadily gaining ground on most of them and is holding pace with JW2, which was more of a backloaded sell as well. So far, so good. Could be looking way worse tbh.
