The resurgence of 3D and IMAX.

@cayommagazine Blue and Gold: Black II The Future has been retitled to Blue and Gold Across Time as the sequel goes through some rewrites. The villains of the film are reported to be The Time Stealers with Gold’s father as the main antagonist.

It was weird the second he started talking about hormones.

You can only be excited for films others like remember.

Don’t get me wrong, I think BW will do well but I think the fact that this one seems rather small scaled spy film and not a CGI spectacle will do more in the upper $200M-low $300M than the $400M+ range DOM. OS I think will be big.

It will do well, it just won’t do extraordinarily well. Henceforth I think TWS numbers seem right on the money. Besides Endgame is why I think it won’t do as well.

Still Minions was one of the few animated films with a sub 3.0x multiple, and had bad WOM. IA3-4 stayed practically flat but IA5 died.

Yeah but DM3 dropped hard from Minions and DM2 domestically. At the very least a domestic drop is happening. As for $1B films, have you heard the tale of Alice Through The Looking Glass?

Yeah, runtime won’t effect a film if it’s anticipated.

These two are destined to drop big. Especially the latter, it screams an Ice Age 5/Pets 2/TLM2 situation. Until we get an actual plot about Tenet, I am sticking with Dunkirk numbers. WW84 has the best chance to win, followed by BW, with Soul and Jungle Cruise as outside chances.

Still, I can see a range from $335M-$450M for WW84, but I fell like it doing under $300M is very unlikely.

That’s also a good point but I do think while this will be the most female skewing and that IGN isn’t the best place to judge it’s still a CBM and will be a bit more male skewing than most blockbusters and due to the prequel plot amongst other things, and lack of Avengers to help a boost, that it seems more likely to be a TWS than a CW. My guess is that Soul will win the summer.

^See that’s what we should be concerned about and not runtime.

But even though okay is better than bad, it won’t be enough to turn heads around. Besides I think they all had the same CinemaScore

Endgame was three hours long, if the film interest people, then it should be fine. The main concern would be whether or not the first film had the novelty due to the appeal of kids in supernatural situations. Or WB’s recent marketing blunders.

What’s the matter with IT 2 now?

I can see that especially in March as being so close to Onward and Mulan will hurt.

Yeah cause waiting 3 years hurt GV2, AMatW, DOFP, and the four year wait killed Ragnarok. The only CBMs with two year sequels were in fact, FFH and Dead2ool. The former had a slight increase DOM, while the latter only slightly decreased. Both seems about right for WW84 but I have no reason to see a major decrease like Dark Phoenix or Pets 2. If an original is liked enough, and has sequel potential it’ll be fine, I mean Frozen 2 was 6 years after the first but that’s looking to be a monster. From what we now know of the plot as well as having more details, it seems very small scaled for the MCU like Ant Man and doesn’t seem like it will effect the MCU as a whole like Captain Marvel, sure there’ll be a superhero drought but even then, I don’t think it’ll cause it to go crazy. TWS numbers seem about right, maybe Homecoming at most, but anything over $350M+ DOM is a pipe dream as we saw with FFH, DOM at least the Endgame bump only gets you so far. The Eternals will be the big MCU film.

Yeah. Best Case scenario seems like Kong numbers.

Why would WW drop big as the original was well liked? Not to mention, it’s not like Fast 9 will be big DOM and Black Widow seems like a non starter.

Survivors of 2019-2020: WW84 BOP (the small budget will help) IT2 Joker Unknown: Tenet Deaths: GvK (if stays in March) Scoob Dune

So I guess Disney and WB are arch rivals due to The Jungle Book huh.

Shivampa?

Warren has also tried to get into the “Upper Crust”, a club of the most rich socialites (cameos by Keanu Reeves and Kanye West) including his rival and old bully from middle school, Andrew Masterson much to his ire as they deem Warren too immature. His best friends and fellow entourage of irresponsible millionaires, decide to go for a night of partying and debauchery doing immature stunts like letting rhinos run free at the zoo one of them owns, and ding-dong ditching Mark Ruffalo. However, after their largest escapade gets them into a drunk diving accident, and destroying an expensive landmark, the four are promptly arrested. The other millionaires are able to avoid charges as they pin the blame on Warren as he was the driver responsible despite this being Warren’s third strike. Judge Brown offers a plea deal of 1,440 hours of community service or jail without bail. Warren reluctantly choose the former as he humorously has a tantrum in court. Warren is forced to work at Lake Succas Summer Camp as a counselor, where he meets his boss, Ralphie, a stout and jolly man as well as the head of the camp who may or may not have a criminal history overseas. Warren then meets his co-workers Smokey, the groundskeeper with a weed addiction and Cecilia the co-counselor whom Warren grows a crush on and tries to impress but Cecilia frankly states she doesn’t have time for manchildren. On the first day of the job and the majority of the summer, Warren proves to be rather incompetent and lazy as well as struggling with the kids he’s in charge of watching in Cabin Pecker, like the 17 year old Maddie, a dour and sarcastic goth girl who has as much insults as she is on her phone, 16 year old tech whiz and nerd Aahan, 11 year old Rodney, troublemaker and prankster who becomes the thorn on Warren’s side, tormenting him by playing cruel jokes on him, and 8 year old Judy who’s bubbly and is surprisingly has slight precongition. During a canoe trip with his children, Warren then bumps into Andrew Masterson who’s running a summer camp nearby Stuffington Campedy, the more elitist and luxurious camp across the lake. The two rich man children get into a taunt off, miming explicit stuff but Andrew falls into the lake, pelted by hungry leeches. Determined to one up his rival, Warren decides to take camp more seriously, especially as he learns that through Judy that every year, Stuffington beats them every year in a massive camp competition called the Gauntlet. Warren tries various ways of helping the children in their day to day activities by being a drill sergeant like figure but fails miserably. Warren then has an idea thanks to advice from Cecilia, during a heart to heart conversation to try to relate to the children as Cecilia and John spend the whole day helping all of the campers at camp prepare themselves while John uses some of his money for something not selfish and help give the camp some additional funding (as he needs luxury) so the kids can have fun as well as slowly winning over Cecilia Warren also bonds with the children at Cabin Pecker as Warren learns that Maddie has a crush on Morgan, a girl from Stuffington and actually gives her good romantic advice to open and honest, as well as helping Aahan with his problem of being bullied by standing up for himself and rents him a bodyguard but more importantly have confidence in himself, Judy also is able to ride horses like she dream off but Rodney still refuses Warren has changed and pranks him by tying his underwear to the flagpole giving him a superwedgie. Rodney is punished but Warren checks on him as we learn that Rodney’s parents dump him here every summer which Warren sympathizes with as his parents were distant in his life as well, finally earning the respect of the troublemaker. Warren also goes on a late night walk with Cecilia, Smokey and Ralphie as they head towards a bar as they all bond singing karaoke and Warren and Cecilia share a moment. The two even have to drag home an inebriated Ralphie as Warren discovers Cecilia is also very lonely like he is and the two have some real chemistry and are about to kiss until they realize it’s almost morning. As the day before the Gauntlet, the campers of Stuffington and Succas interact with one another as the kids surprisingly get along until the Stuffington kids are a bit too snobby. Romance blossoms between Maddie and Morgan who have a spark but are rudely interrupted by Todd Masterson, Andrew’s kid brother who is also interested in Morgan, taunts Maddie. Andrew and Warren also met up where Andrew taunts him but Warren ignores him, happy for once. Andrew then says his campers are pathetic which offends Warren as he grew close to his children. Andrew offers a deal as the rest of the members of the upper crust will be watching their kids and grandkids compete, if Warren’s camp wins, he’ll give him his position in the Upper Crust but if Andrew’s camp wins, Warren not only lose his fortune but he’ll tear down the poor camp. Warren vehemently refuses until Warren sees how rude the others are to his campers and agree. Cecilia learns about this deal and is ashamed of Warren’s childishness and cut ties as well as Smokey and Ralphie much to Warren’s sadness. The Gauntlet begins with an all out obstacle course, where the Stuffington kids decide to cheat to get the lead as Warren motivates the kids to act just as dirty, for the next part a canoe race which they win despite protests from Cecilia. The last part is a mountain hike and the first one to put their flag on the top wins. Due to his competitiveness with Andrew, Warren suggest they take a shortcut inside the cave. Andrew follows them and convinces Todd to help him sabotage them by causing a cave in using flares much to the horrors of Morgan who films them as the two teams race through the cave as Morgan and the rest of the campers of Stuffington try to stop them but fail as the cave in happens, Morgan goes inside just before to help them. As the Succas campers try to get out, Warren is focused on winning finds an exit where a camper and him can leave but everyone else would be stuck. Cecilia chastises him for being as bad as Andrew and Judy gets injured by trying to escape as Warren realizes how much of an ass he’s been and apologizes to everyone realizing he’s not responsible and rather awful but decides to make a change. Morgan arrives much to the joy of Maddie as Morgan says they can escape if they make a hole big enough but the rocks will cause the interior to be crushed. Using some firecrackers Rodney had as well as Aahan’s tech whiz and spare tools to create a makeshift bomb to blow open a hole but the cave is about to crumble. Warren and Cecilia help the kids escape but Judy is stuck forcing Warren to go back for her as he sacrifices himself to allow Judy sometime to escape. Cecilia and the other campers help save Warren who is unconscious and badly bruised, as they mourn for him Warren farts and admits that one was nasty as everyone is overjoyed he’s alive but has broken both of his legs. The campers work together to get Warren down the mountain for help as Andrew’s team wins. Back on the surface, Andrew gloats and acts as a total ass which disgusts the Upper Crust who are also impressed at Warren’s character growth. Morgan also shows the Upper Crust, Andrew’s plot as Maddie contacts the police causing Andrew and Todd to be arrested and the former permanently kicked out of The Upper Crust Warren declines a membership to the Upper Crust buts thanks them as Warren decides he needs time to work on himself. The next summer, it is revealed that Succas became the most popular camp as well as funded by and owned by Warren who has matured a great deal and begun dating Cecilia, Maddie and Morgan are dating, Aahan has become popular with confidence this time, Rodney still a prankster has mellowed and Judy is enjoying herself. Andrew and Todd work as janitors as part of community service and are caught in one of Rodney’s traps and gets covered in honey and swarmed by bees.
