  1. This is what opening weekend should always look like. passionate fandoms supporting their movies in full force.
  2. Venom is the first movie whose huge OW was fueled by marketing that basically said "this is a turd and you should totally see it".
  3. everything except Mortal Engines will beat Solo one way or the other (OS and WW for sure, maybe dom too).
  4. he killed my childhood cause he isn't making movies anymore. This shit is given to his SFX director or something. I miss LOTR. You should understand better than anyone.
  5. Mortal Engines story isn't accessible to GA and it won't fly high with book fans cause it's already sanitized. Book Hester is hideous and there's an actual plot point for it cause her split skull creates her mental instability and fits or murderous rage. It's incurable so she's a constant liability to the friendlies and that actually plays a big role in this installment and sequels. This chick is Kylo Ren/Jon Snow, a strategically placed scar meant to prettify, not to intimidate. fans are very peculiar about these things so they won't like it. moreover, actors are just bland. They are Cara/DeHaan level. Cara was an action heroine too and the movie looked stunning, and absolutely nobody cared. And it isn't like the season is low on action heroines. SpiderGwen and Penny, Meera, Queen Nicole Kidman, Hailee Steinfeld do action in much more appealing movies. I don't know why this was such a pet project of Jackson but yeah, there's no interest. IGN shills for anything anyway.
  6. that's what really matters. if people like the character and performance they are more likely to roll with less stellar elements.
  7. Not when there are female-led movies people actually want to see - Mary Poppins and Bumblebee. Mortal Engines isn't unique in having a female lead this holiday at all plus all those other movies look way better and already have built-in audience.
  8. people who saw both Venom and ASIB say Tom >>>>>>>> Bradly&Gaga maybe AMPAS could add Best Popular Performance Award?
  9. Audience is raving Hammy Tom and loving the movie for his performance. I hope that results in a big OW and good legs.
  10. Audience is loving Venom. negative tweets were clearly WB-funded Russian bots.
  11. Green Room in gonna be big. It set TIFF on fire, everyone say it has amazing commercial potential because it's a total crowd pleaser. It could end bigger than Creed and Widows when all is said and done.
  12. and 3x less general appeal Plus it goes up against Fast&Furious spin-off, Dora, something by WB, and then Artemis Fowl a week later. This ain't gonna be X Men's GOTG.
  13. Not a high bar considering there it's sitting on RT. But yes, it looks fun and people respond to that. I'll see it. @CoolEric258 I hope so though I want OW + legs.
  14. That's little over 100M WW increase, great success for the little guys especially considering World Cup messing up!
  15. Agreed. But Ali will Waltz his way to the win. His movie's going to be a huge heartwarming hit, and unlike Rockwell's extended cameo, his role, while supporting in nature, is almost as big as Viggo's. Done deal.
  16. is this confirmed or just Deadline estimate? I glanced 176M number somewhere so can someone explain?
  17. Bale, Viggo and Malek are his big competition cause all 3 movies are likely to do great boxoffice too. So acclaimed transformative performances + big boxoffice =/= not just ASIB's privilege
