8 true friday? Interesting.
-
To be fair Civil War’s legs is one that always stuck out to me despite the reviews.
-
its a movie for cinephiles, not general audiences. Not a criticism, just an observation. (Or to recycle a recent talking point about other films, maybe if it was better it would’ve done better? Nah that’s silly.)
-
Hey mods, would this be considered “political”?
-
So this could cross 30? I would consider that a win.
-
That comp is unfair. For one, Trump failed in his campaign while the Snyder fanbase was successful in theirs.
-
She’s a master carny.
-
It needed more sharks
-
Well Cap did warn us that Harley fans might not be happy with TSS… 😉
-
Im kinda surprised tbh. Some will make it worse than it really is, but heck the first Thor got a B+. It’ll be ok.
-
If anybody has a problem with the innocuous thing I said, it’s probably more to do with said person. Notice I didn’t say anything about TSS.
-
A reminder: people (especially franchise war soldiers) will use incredible mental gymnastics for something they liked (or hated) that isn’t exactly consistent with other things. I mean people wanting to throw a parade for JC’s opening (considering its budget) was a through the looking glass moment for me.
-
In theory? Possible. In reality it would mean those two would have to settle on a % arrangement both are fine with and well the last time Sony/Disney had to do that regarding anything Spidey…well we Remember what a public mess that became.
-
I think SC will be theater exclusive…and unfortunately Disney takes it on the chin.
-
At this point, what would be considered a “win” benchmark for TSS this weekend? Over 30?
-
I mean they've already financially compensated talents and their backend deals. Have they committed to anything else this year after Dune though? I don't remember.
-
I think of the new Space Jam, which I watched on Max (which as a subscriber, they already have my $15 something) but it's not something I would've bothered to watch in theaters.

Black Widow | July 9 2021 | ScarJo secures the bag from Disney
RRA replied to Kalo's topic in Box Office Discussion
Disney's lawyers need a muzzle. -
If it made enough money or considered enough of a success, a sequel would probably happen. It’s a business run on profit, not on IMDB scores. of course this goes into the problem with streaming: what is the metric for “success” on streaming? Box office it’s obviously easier Metric to digest but what is “profit” for streaming outside of scoring more/keeping subscribers? It’s a grey area.
-
I wasn’t surprised. GvK as a spectacle screamed like something people had to see on the big screen. MK didn’t. this is why I squirm when people pimp streaming numbers, Max or PA. So much of that is lost dollars/views that would’ve gone into ticket buys.
-
Interesting. I enjoyed BOP, but being focused wasn’t exactly one of its strengths.
-
Yeah Disney, piss off King Kevin even more. I’m sure that’ll pay off long term.
-
I'm biased because I wasn't that hot on JC having seen it, but let's hope that same director/star pairing does better on BA.
-
OT but I'm reminded of Dredd, which should've spawned a whole cool (bloody) franchise. Sigh
-
I like this long term thinking, which unfortunately hasn't historically been one of WB's strongest traits. But who knows? Maybe they've actually changed? I mean thing is regardless of what TSS and it's $185 million budget does, the Peacemaker show was shot and coming out on Max. It's in their interests to support that investment.
