The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo
YM! replied to grim22's topic in Numbers and Data
But again both Tomb Raider and Rampage are PG-13 and even though Pikachu is live action, the PG rating guarantees they’ll be a stronger family spread than the other two could ever get. -

Somewhere between 16x-20x seems right on the money for Pikachu using comparisons like older skewing family films like Dumbo, Christopher Robin, Dragon 3 and A Wrinkle In Time -

Why would Pikachu go lower, besides I don’t think those are fair or good comparisons because even as they’re all video game movie, Pikachu is still a PG rated family film. Something along the lines of Dumbo or Disney live action remakes seem right. -
If Lion King, SW8, TS4 and Frozen II are gigantic, I’m afraid he’ll go the way of Kevin and we won’t have an anti-Disney troll anymore.

Don’t make it harder for Hades, it’s going to a rough year for him.

I’ll say it and I’ll keep on saying: WB sucks with family films. They need to get someone for their family film division who can market. -

Imho considering how weak November is, I’m surprised WB didn’t move Pikachu or Godzilla early in November. -
Avengers: Endgame Monday Thread (4/29): 36.87M (3rd best Monday ever)

Wow. This comment is about as smart as someone saying Paramount was bullying Wonder Woman by releasing Transformers 5 in June. -

Again my prediction is based on my theater(s (as I’ll do Menominee Falls sometime Saturday as it is the second biggest in Wisconsin), and from what I’ve seen so far and based on actual tracking which is very different from BOP tracking as it (again I could be wrong) surveys audience members and their interest, I’m going to predict a bit lower until I have more concrete data. As for the comps, I think they’re fair (as I don’t have Shazam or Dumbo at my disposal) especially Venom which was more walkup based at my theater. I am hoping it surprises but for now I’m going with conservative guesses. -

Pokémon Detective Pikachu 5/9/19 (9 before previews, 10 before release) North Shore Cinema Mequon, WI 4:00 - 11/146 6:45 - 15/146 9:30 - 0/146 This was definitely the jump it needed to survive here. Comps: 13% ahead of Despicable M3 ($81.84M OW) 22% behind Venom ($63.03M OW) 63% behind Incredibles 2 ($59.57M OW) I know they’re not the best comparisons but my range still stands from $50M-$70M but it’s definitely an improvement after how troubling Monday was. -

Good news for Pikachu lovers. It had a major jump today, I’ll do a report after lunch. -
@cayommagazine Sean Schemmel (Dragon Ball Z) joins the cast of Endless Animation’s Toons as Kai and potential replacing Eric Bauza’s Hammer Hands, a jovial half wolf, half human demigod fighter from the popular anime Fighters Of Freedom, who joins the toon squad with Ashley (Olivia Cooke) as he has received a live action remake that has little to no resemblance of the original anime but is actual a very bad action film (sort of like Dragonball: Evolution). Kai is animated very similar to Dragon Ball Z focusing on a very anime like design to help him contrast with other toon counterparts.
