Legion Again

Spent a little bit wondering why TalismanRing had Revenge of the Sith comps and how they could possibly be useful.

I thought this was a Pratt joke at first, but he left his wife for a 29 year old author, so now I’m wracking my brain trying to figure out the reference. Or is there just not a particular one?

Sounds more like this is something Kumail wanted to try than something Marvel “did” to him. And Kit and Madden have been pretty in shape for GoT at various points anyway. I assume they’ll both be pretty buff for Eternals too unless deliberately being not so plays into their characters more.

“Funny guy hired to play a Marvel hero gets swole” is not exactly the most original story by this point 😛 It is an impressive transformation in just a year or so. Simu Liu coming along too.

Amazing. Every word of what you just said... was right.

Hahaha, the 70M single day ceiling. Boy, those were the days 😂

Legends speak of a movie so powerful it had to be removed from the July slate. A film so fearsome that the CCP would not risk its release before the 70th anniversary. If these tales prove true TROS had traded its competition gorilla for a competition King Kong ☠️

Opens Jan 1st, but it’s not real competition. TFA $24M RO $7.5M TLJ $8M Right now I guess about flat from TLJ, is like 1M admits. So PS for it will never be a big number and it’ll probably be doing dailies not that far from F2 (in its 7th weekend).

Fun starts on this page:

I remember the BP breakdown well. First BOT posts I ever saw

Do you recall (or have a picture that would know for sure) about what % of TLJ was for OW? If TLJ was like 92% for OW and TROS 84%, that’s still a difference with some pretty big implications.

Oh, Jesus. Fool is actually an autocorrect error. Supposed to be (sarcastic) “good.” Guess the meaning doesn’t really change but that’s ruder than I’d like to be 😬

???? It’a pretty much exactly what we thought before. With 2 more years of reserved seating it’s still got me thinking about 39->190, but see how the next 3 days develop etc.

WAAAAAAANNNNNNNGGGGG

Yeah, I mean, spectacular bonkers insane amazeballs reviews could increase OW a bit. But not good reviews.

Kiddies are still in school. Spiderverse was -71.4 and I’m not convinced it was more kid/family driven than J3.

230 is extremely unlikely right now. Not sure how many times I have to say that good reviews won’t change much of anything. They're already baked in to expectations. It’s not like good reviews -> bigger, bad reviews -> remains on course. It’s good reviews -> remains on course, bad reviews -> smaller.

This leaves me Speechless

Very nice walk ups today, considering it’s exam week from what I can tell. Rank Title Release Date Daily Gross (Total) Admissions (Total) Number of Screens Revenue Share 1 Frozen 2 U.S. Nov 21, 2019 $550,510 ($86,557,754) 81,502 (12,159,674) 1,289 32.65% 2 Jumanji : The Next Level U.S. Dec 11, 2019 $371,985 ($6,143,349) 55,509 (858,118) 1,097 22.06% 3 FORD v FERRARI U.S. Dec 04, 2019 $253,762 ($6,866,984) 36,362 (914,462) 778 15.05% 4 KNIVES OUT U.S. Dec 04, 2019 $170,235 ($3,386,251) 24,421 (472,646) 519 10.09% 5 A Little Princess South Korea Dec 04, 2019 $84,438 ($2,899,361) 13,666 (441,447) 544 5% 30% weekly drop CGV PS are strongly up to 12k, think today may go for 90k or so (~24% drop). Tomorrow Start-up will come out. Though its PS are deflated by the over 50k of sneaks it’s done over the past week, it still doesn’t look huge. On Thursday Ashfall comes out as well, and Frozen should take a bigger hit. KOBIS PS: Start-up D-01 56k Ashfall D-02 94k Cats D-07 24k Forbidden Dream D-09 3.3k (had some sneaks today)

Seems like Gavin believes

Looks like fool ‘ole Scotty forgot about a lil indie nit known as Incredibles 2... Also “whether it makes it past F1 or not” is a classic piece of analytic failure.

Both animal themed, talk about crossover potential!

Jumanji is a crowd pleaser. 260-310 imo.
