YM!

Dark Phoenix (4 before previews, 5 before release) North Shore Cinema Mequon, WI 6/6/19 7:00 - 23/119 10:00 - 4/119 Running: 82% behind Spider-Man: Homecoming ($21.8M OW) 73% behind Ant Man and The Wasp ($19.9M OW) 53% behind Godzilla: King Of The Monsters ($23M OW) 53% behind Venom ($37.8M OW) 4% behind Pokémon: Detective Pikachu ($52.5M OW) 4% ahead of Kingsman: The Golden Circle ($40.5M OW) Ouch. Just ouch. Thinking $40M-$45M OW at the moment but sub $40M OW is somewhat real. The Secret Life Of Pets 2 (4 before previews, 5 before release) North Shore Cinema Mequon, WI 6/6/19 6:00 - 17/149 8:15 - 0/149 10:00 - 0/149 Running: 61% behind Aladdin ($35.4M OW) 39% behind Pokémon: Detective Pikachu ($33.1M OW) 32% behind Dr. Seuss The Grinch ($45.9M OW) 32% behind Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation ($29.9M OW) 28% behind Coco ($39.2M OW/$54.04M (Of we used 5 day) 6% ahead Wonder ($28.68M OW) This is also very bad for this, like very bad. Thinking $45M-$55M OW but wouldn’t be shocked at lower. But if these comparisons hold not even $40M OW is safe. MIBI has sold zero tickets lol. Kind of bad this soon. Toy Story 4 (18 before previews, 19 before release) North Shore Cinema Mequon, WI 6/20/19 6:00 - 36/301 - UltraScreen 8:30 - 6/301 - UltraScreen 10:15 - 0/119 No comparisons but this far out is exactly, currently it’s at 53% of what I2 was 9 days before previews ($96.2M OW) as tickets will increase tenfold by the time we get to the same point in time.

Yes.

Little number plus big number equals decent number

Just found out this had an $100M budget

As for most anticipated for rest of the year: Frozen II Ad Astra Once Upon A Time In Hollywood It Chapter 2 Jojo Rabbit Yesterday Parasite Midsomnar Gemini Man

The correct term is animation but I have more respect for you saying that.

Would 7:00 PM EST sound good?

Oh in that case take away Generations’ IMAX. Generations was supposed to start getting IMAX on the 23rd btw and I can’t reveal it until mid June.

Jonny Quest

$400M DOM confirmed.

Still, why have at best a 2.7x multiple when you can have better legs in June with no real competition until Tenet as Pixar 2 and In The Heights are counterprogramming, and Fast 9 would've died domestically. I'd argue release date doesn't matter, I mean WW was the biggest CBM domestically of 2017. Besides even though I'm like 85% sure Scoob will underperform or flop, WB has big aspirations for it.

Is Voltron still happening?

BvS also had Good Friday, something that really helps boost the number. Disney probably wouldn’t flinch though and even if they did they’d put in right in that post Memorial Day spot putting WW1984 in a very bad position for legs with Fast 9 crippling OS and Black Widow hurting DOM and Artemis Fowl, even though it’ll be the Disney sacrifice would move to early May which put Scoob in a bad spot.

Even in the past it was spotty: 2002: Stitch (hit) and Treasure Planet (flop) 2000: F2000 (flop), Dinosaur (underperforms) and TENG (underperform)

You know a certain MCU fanboy whinnied today about us underestimating the MCU and I agree. I can see The Eternals winning the year with a real good shot at Captain Marvel Numbers as the lack of big films will help it gains some solid legs as well as potentially the first LGBT superhero.

Shazam failed* (I use the term only in comparison to other DCEU films as Shazam was quite profitable) against its predecessors not only due to competition but the incompetence of WB’s marketing especially for family skewing films (it’s proven because unlike other studios if I recall correctly they don’t have a marketing head for that audience) as well as a combo of too dark for kids/too light for adults.

I don’t expect more than Homecoming numbers at best for Widow besides it’s not like Shazam where it was packed between two big CBMs. Did BVS first over CACW help?

@cayommagazine The DC Universe is expanding with Endless Entertainment with the DC Multiverse. It is being reported Endless Entertainment has acquired the rights to adapt Power Girl, Bumblebee, Green Arrow, Martian Manhunter, Hawkgirl and Hawkman to use in a Crisis On Multiple Earth film tentatively aiming for Y10. However, Endless Entertainment plans to crossover with some of the DC franchises it has already in an eventual Crisis on Multiple Earth film where Static, Blue Beetle, Booster Gold and the Green Lantern Corps. Three Universes exist in the setup: Earth 1 contains most of the aforementioned heroes including Static, Earth 2 is home to Blue Beetle and Booster Gold and Earth 3 is home to the Green Lantern Corps, Hawkman and Hawkgirl. While Endless is unsure about adapting all of the aforementioned heroes due to past failures of cinematic universe (GameVerse, plans of Ladybug/Possible movie), they will plan to introduce only a select amount of heroes in solo film with Power Girl and Green Arrow are options.

Oh yeah, forgot about that tbh. Mine is PG-13 and is basically more of a space tentpole (Think Josie And The Pussycats meet Spark: Rising), though I may move it and make it my big film of November in the 50% case Lesedi falls apart.

@Blankments why the wtf reaction?

@Spaghetti Move The Valkyries vs The Galaxy (Musical/Sci-Fi/Comedy) - directed by James Bobin to December 23rd in IMAX and take away More Miraculous IMAX in exchange.

#RIPdan also works. Don’t respond to fanboy bait or I guarantee a flame war will break out.

#mehra seems better.

Is in on Netflix in America?
