HouseOfTheSun

You killed it with your numbers once again man!

I think he’s playing it exactly as it should be. A solid opening that’s not going to do anything more than expected based in tracking and nothing to go into hysterics about. it should also be a obvious and glaring sign to you that you’re using the one freak show overpeformance to justify your logic.

If it did not do that…it would be a very very big problem. That it has passed everything but NWH is essentially meaningless to mention. And really…it only gets to hold that title (?) because of the release order. MoM is probably going to beat do 1.5x this domestically for OW.

How do you never miss

Nice

Sure and that performance was crazy but Joker being the main character like that was a novelty whereas this is a more known quantity. I expect solid legs but 3x Is hard. I expect 2.7-2.8 like TDKR

This movie really is not going to lend itself to the repeat viewings that are needed for 3x. It’s a good movie but it’s not one that I want to rewatch soon. Maybe in a year or something

The only one that sounds like that is you trying to pretend like this opening is some sort of major win for the movie. Most of the numbers in that thread were slightly above this number. In fact 23-25 was the figure for the most part with obvious signs of slowing in the last couple of days into the 20-23 range. and guess what? This doesn’t have to be left up to your imagination. You can literally click on the thread and look at it. It’s right there.

Are they even making money on this after the power bill and employee pay

This movie is opening to exactly what the trackers here and elsewhere said it would, and the people that thought it was headed for a massive blow up beyond that are doomposting like the world has committed some unspeakable atrocity against the movie lol

Aquaman wasn’t exactly the first thing people associated with Snyder. He mostly got out of there Scott free. It functioned as a new IP when it released

I think that points to ah issue with the IP more than anything. Uncharted did great and has held well. The character of Batman has been put through the shredder as a result of the Snyder movies. That is simply the truth based for the general audience. We’re no longer in the late 2005-2012 period of time where the character was at its peak between the Nolan movies and Arkham games. Overexposure is also a factor.

That dude better enjoy it while he can lol

Green Lantern?

The people seeing it at a fan event and early screenings are very different than the people that will see it on a Wednesday afternoon. And those are mere relevant to general WOM.

I think it’s clear that there’s not going to be any sort of major ramp up in Presales in the last 36 hours or so. It will have to rely on walk ups to break past the 120-130 range imo.

Saturday matinees are selling very well and Sunday started slower but it picking up as well. IMAX still doing very well though the weekend

Masking personal opinion as “buzz” lol

Just bought a Saturday imax seat. Saturday seats starting to sell out well around me for general showings as well. I wouldn’t call it a major acceleration but 130-140 is on the table I think

Alright let’s stop the doomposting about this movie. It’s going to do solid in its opening weekend. 120m-130m is a clear and away 2nd best post pandemic opening and will do 325m+ domestically, which again is great in this day and age. No it’s not MCU number but it doesn’t need to be. Batman has suffered, whether people want to admit it or not, from the critical/ financial failure of the Snyderverse, and more importantly it’s absolute rejection by general audiences. Maybe it’s suffering from overexposure as well now but that doesn’t mean it needs to be shelved. this movie still has excitement and by all accounts is on track to be quality. It’s not this movie we need to worry about, it’s the after this one. If this is a fan pleasing movie that does solid financially but doesn’t blow us away, and THEN the next one disappoints then maybe we worry. Financial comparisons to marvel are never going to bring any dc fans happiness. It’s like comparing Apple to Samsung phone sales. If you harp on that you probably should let it go.

7pm Imax near me is sold out 3pm is maybe at 40%.

Transformers the last knight rly packed a punch. goodness Wakanda Forever is gonna smoke Catching Fire…that might even be deadlines headline.

The trailer numbers are ridiculous and now the Patrick Stewart marketing is out in full force. But moving up doesn’t really make sense. It was done for Endgame do to asynchronous release that isn’t there for MoM.

Based on what was revealed in the trailer I think 200m is about 30% chance depending on the size of the role of the character. If some of the other leaks turn out to be true…who knows

185m -> 500m
