  1. I do t think they’d have a reason to stop this merger. WB/Paramount would still have a ton of competition and their value is less than Disney and Universal nevermind Netflix or Amazon. If anything these two need the merger
  2. No don’t say that! I am a Millennial and I don’t want to accept my old age of 30 Though it makes sense, Millennials grew up in the 90’s to early 00’s when superhero cartoons were all the rage! Also explains why Mario was huge (Zelda will be just as huge!)! Also we millennials grew up with video games too (ie MK, Zelda, Mario, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, Smash Bros!)
  3. I was looking at album sales but your list seems more accurate so I’ll admit to being wrong
  4. She has actually, only Madonna has sold more than her. I like Taylor and she could very well beat both Madonna and Rihanna (and Mariah, who is above Taylor currently) but right now, as of 2023, she hasn’t. Taylor is definitely the biggest artist currently active however and she’s a lot bigger than the names mentioned before (Britney, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Bierber, Drake…etc).
  5. Small victories! Make those legs point to it finding an audience on VOD and becoming a true success there
  6. Australia, China, Japan and Korea. Probably won’t get a China date, unless WB removes a few certain lines from the film and i have no idea about Japan or Korea. Australia releases in two weeks
  7. If all DC has to offer is Batman and his cast of characters then they should just stop and throw in the towel. As for me, I’d love to see more Shazam, Black Adam and especially Blue Beetle. Those are cool characters whose potential was squandered by a bad shared universe. oh well, at least Xolo is returning and maybe he’ll get another shot with a series on Max or a team up film (Titans/Young Justice). His reach storyline is too good not to adapt! Scarab Wars looks to be a banger as well
  8. Just going by my local theaters, many of the earlier shows have sold out (Barbie, Blue Beetle, GT) as well as the afternoon shows, but once you get to the later times (anything passed 8:30) is where I see a slow down. Still though, I’m guessing those will be filled in by college age individuals and young adults who work night shifts. I think this years NCD beats last years
  9. Do you know if it’s releasing in China, Japan or Korea? I know it’s releasing in Australia next month but those are 4 really big markets missing in the international totals
  10. Then what Reddit and all the DC fans be talking about it he did so? Probably should have released them all on Max
  11. I mean what else does he have going for him? I’ll wait until Superman Legacy to see if the DC brand is truly dead for the foreseeable future. If Gunn can’t fix DC, no one can.
  12. Blue Beetle and Barbie! Was hard to find tickets at my local theaters so I had to go to the OC. Blue Beetle is selling quite well at my local AMC, Harkins, Regal and Cinemark!
  13. They completely destroyed DC and made it a brand people actively avoid. They also allowed JK Rowling (though they likely had very little say there) to run Wizarding World into the ground. Maybe WB needs to go back to being the anti-Disney aka director driven with new ideas and adaptions instead of relying on old brands that need a good rest
  14. Just beat Shazam 2 and all is good! Sure still a flop, but at least not DC’s biggest flop! Also Madame Web and Kraven are so DOA next year. Can’t believe we’re getting 6 Marvel films in 2024 and a bunch of shows!! Disney/Sony needs to chill
  15. If that’s the case then the DCU is dead for me and I’ll be joining the Snyder fans in boycotting DC. Don’t open your mouth and promise fans things if you’re not going to go through with it…
  16. How is it headed for a 70% drop when it’s holding better than Shazam 2 and The Flash (school was out for this one, unlike for Blue Beetle). I think NCD will also help cushion the drop too. BOP has it as a 50% drop while Variety has it at a 60-68% drop.
  17. DC fans do show up, there just doesn’t seem to be a lot of us. Either that or Batman is the only draw DC has
  18. Everyone is projecting different numbers. Variety is more pessimistic and has GT at 2 or 3, tied with Blue Beetle 2nd weekend. I’m thinking NCD is throwing everyone off? Anyway, let’s go Blue Beetle!! Surpass WW84, Shazam 2, TSS and BOP then we’re good! Lol Give us a solid hold!
  19. RWRB > BROS The former is a simple love story (with a good premise) while the latter is, well I don’t know what they were going for there but it sure wasn’t positive representation. Anyways! Hoping Blue Beetle pulls through and avoids the title of lowest grossing DCEU film! Domestically at least, Shazam 2, TSS and WW84 are within sight. Worldwide will depend on China/Japan/Korea/Australia and holds in Mexico/Brazil. Fingers crossed!
  20. Near Orange County, I’m like in the outskirts of LA county. That awkward in the middle region between the two. My local AMC’s and Cinemark only had bad front seats left
  21. National Cinema Day already effecting segueing for Blue Beetle and Barbie near me. So many sell outs! Had to go to the OC area to get my tickets for Sunday lol I’m curious how Sunday will effect the box office this weekend
  22. It would have lost way more on streaming! 90M (original price tag) is a lot for streaming movie
  23. True but many families stayed home. My theatre is usually packed with kids and families, even when the big release is rated R, last Sunday however, only teens and young adults showed up.
  24. I saw Blue Beetle and I absolutely loved it!! It’s such a shame the DC brand is toxic to casual audiences because if it weren’t then this film would be making bank! Oh well, I’m going to cherish this one film I have about my favorite DC character because they actually did my boy justice! Hoping Gunn sticks to his word and we get more Jaime (and the Reyes family) in the DCU
