Pretty much my exact thoughts just said much more eloquently. I just really liked the first soo much. My wife doesn't really like superhero type films and that was her favorite.
Ah that makes more sense. Individual weekends aside, it will be way ahead of GOTG 2 after it's 3rd weekend and honestly I expect decent drops for weekends 4 through 8.
800 WW might have been possible without End Game. Globally that will crush it. I hope this movie does awesome. It's small budget makes 500+ a massive success. Personally I'm hoping for 623+
That's fair. They did play it safe. However what I find interesting is the people who didn't like it often somehow liked infinitely worse comic book films. I like almost all of them, love basically none of them.
Watched GOTG 2 for the second time. Good lord it was so much better the 2nd time around. I think I compared it to the first one too much but man the ending was so damn good.
What the hell is she talking about? Aquaman had a ton of early screenings that helped to generate interest. It's one of the reasons for a great opening weekend and excellent legs. If there is demand, fill it. Shazam has had very limited marketing in comparison to Aquaman. Im all for it and hope it pushes OW to 70+.
Does Frozen 2 coming much sooner than Incredibles 2 help or hurt at all? Meaning only a few years after the first one, not 14 years kater. I can't wait to see it personally. My 4 year old will be so excited. That was her 2nd movie she loved (first was Brave).
If it ends up at 33.5 million versus 35/36 for this week that doesn't correlate to much with a massive breakout for US going 25 million over tracking. A couple weeks before End Game this film absolutely may have much stronger legs for weeks 6/7/8 .
Curious to see how US does with next week and especially the week after with Pet Sematary coming out. Man that has great reviews coming in too, the book gave me literal nightmares as a kid.
lol. Projections this early on Friday for entire weekends and people go nuts.
Looks like US is a hit despite the meh ending. I will probably see it and expect worse than Get Out to not be disappointed. CM may hit 400m, may not still gonna go near 1.1 billion with zero prior introduction. That's fucking incredible.
Real curious to see how accurate 66 million is. Their initial Thursday estimate was massively off. Did they overcorrect, underestimate again, or thread the needle perfectly.
