[Indian Box Office Thread | Jawan overtakes Pathaan, becomes highest grossing Indian movie of 2023]

Didn't like a single indian blockbuster this year. Most disappointed with leo and dunki. Didn't expect hirani to make such a bad movie.

 

Would love some recommendations from this year.

Anti-corruption masala movies are always awesome. Most relatable political topic in Ind....Bharat, so, it is easy to make a entertaining movie around it.

 

Also, theater was amazing, much better than pathan.

Disney+ earned $7.6 billion in 2022, and they will spend $10 billion on original programming in 2023. They also lost subscribers for 3rd quarter in a row. This doesn't include other costs.

Are you guys aftaid of Indians being even more into conspiracy theories like americans? Indians channels were always biased, but they were never as bad as now. Shouting non stop was there but republic tv is copying fox news to a T. Very scary.

[JAPAN BOX OFFICE | Demon Slayer breaks all time record for OW]

It is difficult to comprehend due to how different western and japanese market are. I don't think anything can challenge dragon ball and naruto in most of the world.

But every number I see about demon slayer, coming from japan, puts it as the biggest anime of this century, if not all time. Manga after season ending, home media, streaming and now box office. Only thing left is video games.

Manga is already pointed out. But in dvd/br sales, KnY did half as much sales in 1 year as one piece has done in it's whole lifetime of 20 years.

I think it's way more than good animation. Any japanese here who can explain the reasons?

Article 370 must be the most sought-after title in Bollywood this week. Who will get it, akki or John?

 

@Sunny Max how did you become fan of south indian movies, and how big are they in pakistan?

Doctor strange because of title and being horror inspired.

Sorry to ruin the party but this makes it even more frustrating about censorship. They could have 2 local blockbuster and 1 good box office performance. I am hoping for 4b.

So, China is similar to India in self hate. Few actors started talking against it here, did something similar happened in china?

[Hypothetical scenario, Marvel vs Disney.]

There is a good chance for marvel to win long terms. Disney is running out of remakes, star wars is a second tier franchise now, which they can't even release 1 per year. And their original films lmao. While marvel is going strong year by year, include x men just like you said in your post and yep marvel is looking much better than disney in near future.

Can anybody provide me deep wang sheet?

If my memory serves me right, and going by 3xMTC for total pre sales. Endgame, TFA, TLJ, BatB did $180m, $108m, $96m, $36m in total pre sales. That's 2x, 2.3x, 2.4x and 5x psm. IW, 2.5x.

Now, I think TLK will be closer to batb than to those other massive movies. Let's go with 4x. It needs to do $50m in total pre sales or $17m in MTC to have a $200m OW. Half of EG, TFA, IW, TLJ. It don't need to do massive pre sales for huge OW. IMO.

It is so irony that the largest moviegoers market in the world by gross didn't even bother to track admission....

 

I remember Rth once said actually they do, just not for public displays. 

I think rth said that it is done for most of the countries but as even rth is not deep into the system, we don't have that data. He does provide for few countries that he has access to.

I am hoping for regular deep wang updates. Also, please no crash. I want to see those big numbers. What are the biggest 24 hour pulse numners?

Gavin do you live in china? Honestly I am scared for you due to news stories I have heard about internet censorship in china. Maybe they were exaggeration. 😌

Can you PM me that posters name. Frequency matters more. I also didn't know when idiot became a major no-no. It's used commonly on these forum.

World Cup is going great after a week of rain. Also from china thread, how is the censorship board now? It was pretty bad few years ago. Good performance from kabir singh.

Personally I don't particularly like implying some of our board members are "idiots".  Maybe misplaced optimism or passion. Even blind optimism.  Exuberant fanboy/fangirl?  Certainly.  I'll cop to that myself.

 

But idiots?  Bridge way too far for Yours Truly.

Somebody have to say that. Not saying I am a pure soul or perfect poster but I saw posters who made low predictions for TS4 called trolls by these fanboys. If they keep their optimism/pessimism to themselves and not attack others, that would be great. Maybe that is not a bridge too far for you.

[The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo]

This thread has been on point this year. Great job. But one thing frustrates me, especially this type of conversation-

Menor, the expert- looking like 12-14m in previews.

Idiot- Still early, can do more. 12-16 is better range.

Menor- I hope so, but, looks like 12-14m.

Idiot- Yes, it can do 15, which will lock 150m ow. Great result.

Good thing is now, most people know the experts, so not much confusion. Unlike earlier days when people were ready to call out porthos for Idiot's misinterpretation.

That's a great result after everything. Maybe they will make a sequel with a new actor as jafar.
