  1. The way people go on, you'd think Disney is going to collapse but I imagine it'll bounce back like they always do.
  2. Doesn't mean they'll be doomed forever or in any danger of shutting down. Give it a year or so and everyone will have forgotten about this moment.
  3. From Paramount's POV, this film has successfully rebooted the franchise. OS is harder to pinpoint because it's still not been released yet in some major markets.
  4. UK release is this Thursday but it's not getting much in terms of timings and it's up against The Equalizer 3 plus the continued success of Barbie and Oppenheimer.
  5. Disney isn't going to collapse because they increased pricing despite your best wishes it does.
  6. Globally where Disney+ has all the Hulu programming, it's a much better service compared to the US version.
  7. I'm sure they'll try and goose the numbers but I suspect it'll be overshadowed by the holdovers as well as The Equalizer 3. I don't think faith based films ever do well in the UK.
  8. Clearly UK cinemas don't think SOF will do big numbers over here.
  9. I liked Theater Camp but it's something that is not going to play well in the multiplexes.
  10. I'm surprised The Equalizer 3 isn't getting any push in showtimes from NCD given it's got all the PLFs.
  11. The brand synergy from Star Wars is a moneymaker in itself with merch, licensing and the various attractions at the theme parks not to mention owning ILM as well so they've been earning money from it since they acquired it.
  12. TBH once the strikes are sorted and they have a good period, people will stop calling for Iger's head.
  13. Death on the Nile was overshadowed by Uncharted, it was amusing to see Kenneth Branagh promoting Belfast with a bit of 'oh, Death on the Nile is out next month'.
  14. Given how it fared OS, the numbers for Gran Turismo aren't too surprising. I think Sony just had no clue how to market it and I suspect even without SAG AFTRA being on strike, the cast wouldn't have increased awareness by much.
  15. With The Equalizer 3 out next week, the chances are looking slimmer by the days.
  16. Inside the Magic you would think would be more supportive.
  17. I think had Kraven been delayed to February, it would be seen as a strike delay but a 10 months delay is giving me turd vibes. I still don't know why Lionsgate keeps delaying White Bird, that movie was completed in 2021, no amount of publicity from either Helen Mirren or Gillian Anderson is going to save that film.
  18. In the case of Ghostbusters, the December date was always a bit tight and Kraven's massive delay suggests Sony wants to do reshoots to salvage it and the strikes gave them the perfect reason.
  19. Pixar has more than paid for itself just from Cars merch alone, likewise with Marvel. Fox will take a while to be profitable but it will in time.
  20. The contract extension is only until 2026, more than enough time for a turnaround and find a successor.
  21. I would imagine things will go into hyperdrive once the strikes are over. The idea that they'll be nothing in those quarters is daft because that won't happen like at all.
