I get that the Raimi Spider-Man movies are the ultimate to some people, but I don’t get why someone HAS to jump in to well actually an opinion that prefers the MCU Spider-Man movies.
Anyway, did CinemaScore change the way they rate movies or have audiences become more lenient towards movies in general? I know CinemaScore and online ratings aren’t the greatest judge of WOM, but I was surprised to see that none of the previous Spider-Man movies had higher than A-. The first 2 at least were clearly well received given their legs. Plus the B+ for SM3 and TASM2’s make sense. Doesn’t mean anything I guess.

I was reading some BO news and came across a great story about Disney’s Hollywood.
It also has the most clever sentence I’ve ever read on Buzzfeed but I don’t think that many people in 2019 would get it.

That was a depressing read.

I’m not disputing the connection. I’m talking about how this film is the 4th movie with Spider-Man in the past 15 months. 6th since 2016.
FFH is going to do very well in the box office, maybe even great, but I believe a solid year distance from Endgame (and extra breathing room from Homecoming and SpiderVerse) would have been better for the franchise.
I’ve loved both recent Spider-Man movies, but I agree with this point. Was talking to classmates today about seeing FFH and they were confused about there being another Spider-Man movie so soon after Into the Spider-Verse.

meh Disney made Ariel a red haired girl and Disney can make her a black girl with dreads if they wan't. You are doing too much.
Idk why you’re still responding to him. His posts since he joined have all been ridiculous enough to have him banned multiple times. Let him and others like him continue to think what they want, won’t change the fact that Disney has cast Halle and that this movie will be made. No need to help them continue poisoning the well.
The Little Mermaid isn’t one of my favorite princess movies, I’m really excited for the live-action now.

If Charlie is threadbanned what's the point of this thread, Rthanos won't show up before the weekend, not even sure he will!
@RtheEnd is viewing the thread now. Might not post anything, but he’s online.

Better than Endgame.
Better than most MCU movies, including Endgame.

Loved FFH. I was worried it’d become too big and lose what made Homecoming and Shazam! so great, but it really managed to capture that and elevate it. Probably my 3rd favorite MCU movie now.

(Speaking of...can anyone remind me what movie coined the “crumbling” meme?)
I think it was Jurassic World.

Wow it’s like I’m back in July 2017 when people were predicting $250m or less for SMH off the OD and OW. Just that it’s different people this time. The second weekend drop had people losing their minds. And then the movie legged it to $330m+. Was hoping this would be a fun run to follow, but it’s becoming clear that won’t be the case like it was in 2017 and like it’s been for Endgame and pretty much every movie that this forum decides to pile up on. At this point, all I care about is enjoying the movie so will ignore all the noise.

Lots of similarities between this Tom Holland character and the one in Onward. Excited for both movies.

Oh bother. Can we ban Avatar vs. Endgame discussions already? Like how MCU vs. DC clubs were banned. Or will we have to wait till it’s determined which movie is #1 WW? At least keep it confined to the Franchise Wars thread or in that admissions thread. Because it’s derailing so many threads and has been beaten to death. Even with the ignore feature, it’s torture.

I thought I saw something like 170-200m. If its 150m it has to be a disaster to miss that number. That is sub 300m finish with that kind of OW.
I guess the $150m was initial tracking. It’s been updated to $170m, but Sony’s staying at $154m. But it doesn’t seem $200m is very likely based on this report if other tracking has it below $170m and others think it’ll be a “shocker.” I just don’t think $200m+ is what we should expect from FFH.
QuoteAny sweat Sony is apt to endure this weekend with the potential under-performance of Men in Black: International will be extremely alleviated in less than three weeks when their Marvel Cinematic Universe co-production Spider-Man: Far From Home puts summer back on track with a $170M-plus opening over six days.
And there’s a bulk of historical and current B.O. and social diagnostics to support that projection. Read on.
One of the top tracking services has Far From Home at $165M, and more aggressive box office analysts believe the movie has a shot to make $200M (though some say that would be a shocker). Sony is being very conservative, with $154M for the Tuesday-Sunday spread.

Spidey pulse numbers are look awful and still front loaded. Again tracking is going to be off.
Isn’t it tracking $150m+ for the 6 day? You think it’s going to go lower than that? I do think it won’t meet the lofty expectations many have on BOT, but it should hopefully meet or beat OW tracking.

I’m not even into the Toy Story movies and didn’t plan on seeing TS4 as I’ve only seen the first and parts of the second one, but rooting for any movie to fail or underperform is super lame. Anyway, thanks for the estimates from the tracking thread and the 2 Asgards.

Excellent pace on Pulse the last few hours. It is definitely getting walk in business. Updating my projection from 12 to 13, could go higher if it continues to be this strong.
I might be missing the obvious here, but how do you determine walk up business via Pulse? Isn’t it strictly online sales while walk ups are tickets bought in the theater? Or are you basing it on how many tickets are sold after the first preview showing starts?
