    Just anecdotal, Majestic outside Milwaukee (probably top 10 theater in Midwest) has very few seats sold for 9pm friday show. I grew up there, it is upper middle class gop zone, so maybe BR wont play well there. But it suggests to me my optimistic projections may be overstated. 

    Just wait when it catches Oscar buzz.

     

    How much Oscar blockbusters we have this October anyway ?

     

    Arrival,Martian and Gravity capitalized on their Oscar Buzz so let this be the Fury Road of October.

    RT score dipped below 95%. Pre-sales have come to a screeching halt as a direct result.

    Hopefully they spread out their animated films most of the time by say at least 8 months. God knows the market is already chock-full of them. 

    I like that y'all are discussing about their animation projects so early but I think WB and Universal are the only folks that can still do fine without Animation and Superheroes respectively (they have been for the better part of the decade) since they have or will find the next best alternative and especially for WAG its fine that will garner some potential hits and its good to have another franchise stream but even if it doesn't their other movies will make up for it.

    I skipped Beauty and the Beast but watched Jungle Book so we're free to make choices but both films were megasuccessful so I can't blame Disney.

     

    Clearly there's demand, they'd be stupid to ignore it.

    but I don't think people care (and that is the part which will come to bite Hollywood)

    Thor 3 is an experimental movie, with psychedelic influence of Indie Sci-Fi.

    To boil it down , they are marketing it more like Guardians. Average folks don't really care who Taika is.

     

    Thor's like discount Superman to them and with the whole Hulk vs Thor angle it will do fine in LA.
