AMC = Argylle Mystery Cat Yep, we have a match!

Cameronbros about to commit sudoku. Jk aside, he deserves to sweep as Director and Producer together with his wife Emma Thomas which would be a nice PJ&Fran Walsh moment.

Covid era is tricky cause different countries or regions were not affected the same way at the same time. So it's hard to gauge whether low numbers were due to disinterest or pandemic raging in those countries or region at the time where it was dying down in other places. So what's the stoiry behind Japan's 6.7M total? People staying indoors or people not caring? Hard to tell. Likewise LATAM. BOM reported only Mexico, Colombia and Brazil, all dismal numbers but if I rememebr correctly, LATAM was hit with covid the last so that could explain why only 3 countries show up on the list. The rest was probably indoors. Either way, they should all increase only question is how much.

ah OK than Zone wins. Still point remains that all PTAs are shoddy so lots of empty seats everywhere.

Oh great another outrage incoming! Just let Nolan have it all OK? Godzilla has the most impressive PTA on Friday, $1406 followed by Zone of Interest's $1087. Nothing else hit 1K PTA so despite increases overall, lots of empty seats I can imagine.

I wonder if some expansions will jump over some movies that are listed as TOP 5 atm. Poor Things opens in 2300 or 2400 theaters so it has a good shot.

Paul Mescal duh!

Pathetic slate and all of it sequels and prequels.

Seems like they decided it on the heels of Annette Bening Oscar nomination. She played a swimmer too.

and fight like demons

I don't exect that boxoffice but I count on OS. Yep, that's why I think DUNC2 has better shot to get to 700M. OS skewing makes it more likely.

a lot. always a good sign.

Since the first one made tad under 300M during pandemic, jump to 400M-500M is perfectly reasonable. It won't have Russia but increases everywhere will compensate for the loss of that market.

True. One is the King the other is the God Emperor.

Yeha, I think 700M WW is happening but I don't want to jinx it. We saw in Spiderverse case how hard it is despite reviews, WOM, schools out, etc.

and not only that but social media still doesn't represent the silent majority. Just because some movies popular on TikTok took off and very likely not only because of TikTok (did all those older people who flocked to Barbenheimer really check TikTok for opinion?) it doesn't mean that movies now have to pander to it. And this article sounds like an invitation to do that. Not a good idea.

DOA ⚰️

Made the OS Thread:

In a month time, DUNC conclusion is hitting IMAX and then the rest of the theaters. Pre-sales in US are hotter than the Arakis air so here's the tread to share pre-sales in other countries, make projections and when the time comes cheer the numbers. With the exception of Russia, which was DUNC's Top 3 market, we should see healthy increases everywhere. The movie is going to be the first spectacle of the year.

First movie had strong legs especially OS and even day and date release on Max didn't hurt dom run. This time, there will be only advantages minus Russia (its Top 3 OS market) but increases everywhere will compensate. As other posinted out, it's the first spectacle of the year so it should comfortably blow up.

No Alia. No Seydoux. But they put an OC on the poster. There's no Shishkali in the book.

That;s much more than The Favorite that topepd out with 1800 expansion.
