YM!

Thanos just wanted to fuck Death. They gave him the overpopulation excuse and I still think that a lot of Marvel villains clear him (Loki, Killmonger, Vulture, Wenwu, Namor, High Evolutionary, etc) but the GA loved Thanos. You can find someway to flesh Galactus out. Personally, think in another life, the Celestials would be pretty cool villains for a phase had Eternals turned out well.

Not sold on Wish doing 3M previews even with EA. Though it’s pacing well against Elemental, it’s still has Discount Tuesday as a factor and also for TMNT I think it’s likely that skewed older which could’ve fucked with ATP even with Discount Tuesday. 2M minus EA seems likely given pace, maybe even 2.5M, but unless pace dramatically increase this weekend, I doubt it. Feel like Trolls opening this week takes some wind out of its sales as that’s the family demographic but maybe it can rebound over the weekend and Mon-Tuesday. Still needs good reviews to be possible. 45m-55m 5-Day seems about right, knowing what we know now. So 135-175m total?

So should 30m+ happen?

DM me

Any idea for opening Friday?

The big test is today. Think the trade reactions will be a good gouge of what type of reviews it gets.

Garfield has surprisingly strong trailer views. Likely in part of the Pratt voice role. Think it can do some nice business for itself though IO2 will cut its legs. 45/60/185 domestic 250 overseas 435 worldwide

He’s just doing the noises like Cate Blanchett in Pinocchio.

Had a feeling it was Guillèn. Unlike Pratt, dude has pretty good voice acting range from Nightwing to Perrito to Odie

Reactions are trickling in, but it’s tomorrow Review Embargo is this Friday.

The trailer clearly states next summer. If it can finish early enough since I doubt that KFP4 makes March, could swap spots with Ghostbusters, to benefit from Easter and the first kids movie since Wonka and Migration.

I got one cat who is basically a black Garfield, another who has Garfield colors and diva attitude but is a tiny cat, another who definitely has the grey Garfield attitude down the best (she’s chunky) but is camera shy, and the fourth one likely will know something is up.

I’m trying to figure out which cat I want to be the star of the video if I submit one.

That’s very odd and a bit concerning the two had to be seperate.

That multiplier is too low. We know EA is around 1M according to @keysersoze123, and presales indicate somewhere around 1.7-2M previews. Think it should be around 17x-20x which would get it anywhere from 29m-40m

Yeah not expecting Eternals 2 to get out of early development but can see threads being folded into a Thor sequel. Think Young Avengers will get a part in Kang Dynasty and that’s about it.

Feel like Trolls skews younger than the more mature family films but older than Bad Guys/Paw Patrol/Lyle but still isn’t as frontloaded as other sequels. Feel somewhere from 15x-20x minus EA seems about right if we use EA as a baseline. So like 30-40m OW imho.

Unless like Deadpool and F4 are gigabombs and the Avengers movies underperform, they’ll soft reboot the MCU after SW (prolly a new Iron Man and T’Challa, and SteveCap back) which I’m pretty sure was always the plan. Do think the next whatever the results are, they’ll hard pivot to X-Men and F4 as the faces with Avengers stuff being a backseat player. I also think they’ll likely just have maybe 1-2 MCU shows in general and if they continue to pump out more they’ll be disconnected and one or two movies a year after SW.

Now called The Garfield Movie, trailer tomorrow

That’s kind of high for Garfield don’t you think?

1. Inside Out 2 - 130m/390m 2. Deadpool and Wolverine - 150m/390m 3. Despicable Me 4 - 115m/375m 4. Joker: Folie A Duex - 125m/375m 5. Gladiator 2 - 100m/300m 6. Wicked Part One - 90m/285m 7. Kung Fu Panda 4 - 80m/270m 8. Godzilla x Kong - 100m/265m 9. Venom 3 - 85m/220m 10. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes - 75m/200m (If WDAS 2024 is Zootopia 2 - 150m five day/400m)
