Is this a hollywood problem or are overseas markets just weak in general due to economic issues? China had a 28% YoY decrease in ticket sales as of Tuesday, the dollar value of those tickets i'm less sure on. Granted even the US is down 20%~ as of Friday. November was up 300mil~ compared to last year and the number to beat for December 750mil which should be beaten though.

It'll be well past that for the year, the total Digital animation gross for 2024 is currently at 1.78bil (Moana data through Friday). it'll pass Animation will pass 2bil by next weekend and i'd be surprised if it doesn't pass 2016s total by the end of the year.

I heard Gladimoaned

If i had a nickle for every time a DC movie bombed and people told me the next one would surely be a hit i'd have more profit than DC movies have had in the last decade.

kind of insane to think that 2/3 of the D+ are in the last 2 months

Sonic might do well but the combined gross of 1 & 2 is 337 mil dom and 708mil WW. I just can't see it making up the difference unless Mufasa has Solo tier reception.

By the time we get to next weekend Afraid will be basically dead

i mean deadpool & Wolverine is still doing decent PTA, looking at The Numbers the only movie above it for PTA is Army of Shadows in a whoppping 2 theaters.

Rather minor but with 810mil in August through Monday Teusdays gross will be good to get 2024s August past 2023s. Still down about a billion compared to last year but September through December last year only made 2.332 billion. Beetlejuice, Joker 2, Venom 3, Moana 2, Sonic 3 and Mufasa should get it pretty close that total without other movies like Wicked, Gladiator 2, Kraven, Smile 2, Transformers etc

hmmm with IO2 and DP&W hitting 3 weeks at #1 i wonder if Moana 2 and Mufasa will also hit 3 weeks at #1 each. The only real competition seems to be the LOTR movie on Week 3 of Moana 2(not huge competition but who knows) and Sonic 3 if it legs out better than Mufasa (honestly neither Sonic 3 or the LOTR movie have any trailers/posters out from what i've seen so who even knows if they are releasing in December)

August is ahead of last year now, and considering next weekend only made 93mil~ total last year it should gain a good bit more ground, DP&W will likely make as much money on its 4th weekend as Blue beetle opened to last year and then Alien should be good for 40~ mil? I think? Not really sure past that but a weekend total around 120mil seems easy to do past that.

Tapping out at just over 600mil would be kind of sad when it'll probably be around 530mil at least by Thursday

Probably hurt a bit more by Florida getting the TS than DM if i had to guess, same for DP&W

kind of insane to think that starting next year people born after Iron Man will be able to watch R-rated movies without parents.

Thinking on deadpool a bit..... do DP 1&2 get retroactively included in the MCU when it comes to looking at stats? It's not terribly major but they would bring the MCU's total WW gross to a little under 32billion over the course of 36 movies.
