Feels like a strawman.
Guess a self quote will suffice

Feels like a strawman. People are aware that things *can* go sideways (positively or negatively). That’s why you get your “probably”s, your “looks like”s, your “present outlook X-Y but see how it goes”s. On the other hand, things usually don’t go outside of regular trends. That is what makes them regular trends. Our trackers have been absolutely killing it for years and years, even and perhaps especially during the volatile conditions of the pandemic. So let’s nip this “people are too obsessed with presales” narrative in the bud. It’s the info that is available, use a little discretion, but it’s extremely valuable especially for big releases.

It is our tradition to have meltdown for every single opener.
Can never tell if people really believe this or it’s just a fun meme.

Sure, start a Last Jedi discussion here, because we want this thread to go completely off the rails before morning.
Look if we can hit 100 pages then it will open to 260, that is just math.

93% verified AS 1k ratings
93% All Audience 5k ratings
Still A- CS range territory
Probably settling like 88-91? Should be A- with a slim chance of one up or down.

I wanted to float GBA, but a little concerned about Ghostbusters fan base even if it isn’t a heavyweight fanbase.

The Lost City Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-21 and Counting
Sellouts Showings Seats Sold Total Seats Perct Sold TOTALS 0 52 52 11163 0.47% So yeah, I know Lost City sales were up prior, but I was too distracted from Batman to really take advantage of it. But there's nothing else to track until Morbius in a couple days, and it'll be a while before we get into the Morbius/Sonic/Beasts triple bout, so might as well play around with this. Plus awareness on The Quorum has been really good for this over the past couple months, which really perked my interest.
Anyhoo, I don't really have any good comps this far out, but I do have Uncharted to look forward to tomorrow. Sadly, I'll have to wait a good, long while for Jungle Cruise and Free Guy, the most appropriate comparisons to use. Seems okay though.
Geeze, what is this actual tracking post doing here. Way out of theme with the pages I just caught up on 😛
I do kind of see the attraction of JC and FG, but I am also wary. They seem more kid/family oriented vs Lost Coty being more adult aimed, though all are nonsequel light action comedy fare. Not like I have another suggestion though - haven’t had a classic adult aimed action romcom in a looooooong time that I can recall.

When did I say otherwise?
You didn’t, but the implication seemed to be that we might find out this weekend that audiences couldn’t handle it. If that wasn’t the intention then consider my response irrelevant 👍

Okay, okay, so — I know I pioneered the Begins OW comp back a few weekend threads ago (and thanks to @PenguinXXR and @Porthos for wayback sleuthing assists). That came out to about 140M.
Another popular comparison I’ve seen for fairly self-evident reasons is SMH, which also translates to about 140M.
But, food for thought — what would Homecoming have opened to if it *wasn’t* MCU? In some ways that is an even better parallel, right? I am thinking maybe like 90-95 translating to… 100-110?

No spoilers but the talks of inaccessibility are so overblown lol. It's not like Joker, it's not even disturbing or insanely darker than Dark Knight or TDKR? Yes there's a lot of plot but the action payoffs every 20-30 minutes are great beats. Strong ending.
If general audiences can't handle this, then we're doomed and attention spans are unrecoverable.
Not loving something isn’t the same as not being able to “handle” it.

I am once again asking you to watch a movie before you comment on the contents.
This is very fair, but having watched it it's not like Tele is wrong either

Kind of goofy, overlong, and rehashed, but basically competently made archetypally Batman fun. Met my expectations, just not my hopes.

Some Asian markets have more sophisticated tastes, so they probably won’t enjoy the film as much.

Like so much of 2000s pop culture, it exists in a vacuum that had seemingly no staying power as people quickly reverted to nostalgia for the 1990s.
Pretty clear that 00s and 10s nostalgia should come after 90s.

Legs seem pretty drastic there, although Sonic into dumbledore certainly won’t do it any favors.
