    Marvel is a brand. The sub IPs keep it fresh. we are getting 4-5 movies a year but barring spider-man there is more than 4 years diff in sequels for individual franchises.

    Okay that’s fair.

     

    I’m not complaining though, I love what the MCU is. I just hope they keep changing it up and keep it fresh for audiences like you said.

    Its a combination of many things, including more limited showings than in years past. Remember as well that we have never, even in good times, had a film playing at this level until the 2nd or 3rd weekend of September. Its all a bit different on top of the Covid issues. 

    That said, its hold have been in keeping with past behaviors so a lot will as usual just depend on the days to come. 

     

    We as a forum tend to live on the highs and lows and when a film runs in the middle - or appears to - it can cause that angst that sometimes arises. Personally, I find the 15% a tad rough (higher end of possibilities) but its actually better than what the tracking suggested last night. 

    Okay cool thanks for that.

     

    I’m still a bit new here and have a lot to learn.

    Nope, Forbes was barely off - less than 100k. You need to understand the difference in box office from say 2 weeks ago before school and football to now. 

    The leggy hopes of 1 poster (the 260m) are not the norm even before covid. Shang-Chi is doing well and held well this week. Anything over 30m this weekend is a win considering its opening was highly inflated with the holiday and it doesnt have the spillover of say Black Panther which was doing more than double the business overall. 

    Yeah that’s true.

     

    However I did think Shang Chi would have a bit stronger weekdays considering we all assumed strong WOM.

     

    However maybe there still is that percentage of people not comfortable going to theatres still that I’m not factoring in here too.

    They're fine coming off a $75m w/e but I don't see how it's going to hit the target that's been tossed around -  $260m+ (and pass TWS) with them

    Getting passed that 200m domestic mark is probably a good target from now on for this film.

     

    It’s probably the combination of the pandemic and MCU becoming that bit more front loaded.

    shang and eternals were always uncertain...and still are (hopefully though they get released there) , as for bw if what @Gavin Feng holds true then in that case disney was the one who shit the bed

    Yeah the Black Widow issues make sense.


    Marvel makes their movies for a global audience. Aside from Deadpool, they won’t do something like Joker and other movies like that will get banned in some countries.

    I just think from a business perspective, these big budget commercial movies not getting a Chinese release to help boost that box office will annoy Marvel.
