The Box Office Buzz and Tracking Thread: Electric Boogaloo
ViewerAnon replied to grim22's topic in Numbers and Data
This thread is emotional whiplash. Every sort of a doom and gloom "I wish it was doing better..." post is immediately followed by a "It's doing great!" post. -
If you might indulge me a moment to pop on my tinfoil hat, part of me wonders if Universal played with the numbers a bit to bring HALLOWEEN KILLS in just a hair under $50M. Doesn’t their deal with theaters allow them to sell sub-$50M OW grossers on VOD platforms after just 17 days? Getting KILLS out there on November 1st has to look mighty tempting to them.

IATSE Strike Discussion Thread | Deal ratified
ViewerAnon replied to Eric Duncan's topic in Box Office Discussion
Keep in mind that the trades are often mouth-pieces for the studios. I'm not saying this is the case (I hope it's not the case), but if IATSE truly walked away, getting something out there saying "We're really close to a deal!" makes it easier to paint the guilds as greedy, selfish, etc. -

That is not the worst case scenario but my landlord appreciates your optimism. -

Not that it’d ever be this consistent, but just for funsies: HALLOWEEN 2018 made $7.7M in previews for a $76.2M weekend. If HALLOWEEN KILLS managed the exact same ratio: $4.8M = $47.5M $5.25M = $51.9M -

Everything about this post is so dead-on accurate it hurts. -

Hard to tell with the Peacock factor but I’d think closer to $30-35M. H2018 made $7.7M in previews and KILLS seems to be pacing somewhere around half of that based on the comps in this thread? -
No Time to Die (2021)
ViewerAnon replied to Eric Duncan's topic in Review That Movie! (Spoilers Allowed)
CASINO ROYALE's a hell of an experience after watching NTTD. We witness the death of every major character by the end of Craig's run! -

$100 million is obviously insane but I absolutely think NTTD skewing older than VENOM bodes well for its walkups, and $7.5M in previews (ignoring Wednesday) would still be a 42% increase over SPECTRE. -
No Time To Die | October 8 2021 | 82% on RT | RIP Sean Connery
ViewerAnon replied to Neo's topic in Box Office Discussion
LAST JEDI is the sequel to a film that made $2 billion. FURY ROAD made $374 million worldwide. And that's not even getting into a clear pre-/post-GHOSTBUSTERS 2016 split when it comes to angry internet trolls going nuts about wokeness and realizing they could monetize the outrage. -

Universal doesn't have anything to do with NTTD's domestic release, do they? Their logo certainly isn't in front of the film in the US. -

I'm not a tracker but I looked at a couple of LA theaters Friday night and DUNE has sold a bunch of seats. -
Scream | January 14, 2022 | Profit of $56.7M

They were locked into Madeleine by SPECTRE’s ending. It would be harder to sell her disappearing between movies and Bond falling in love during the pre-titles sequence than just trying to spark the relationship that’s already there. I liked Madeleine in this movie. She’s still not Vesper or Tracy but Craig and Lea Seydoux act the shit out of it.
