    From Tuesday to Wednesday...

    UK + $4.4M
    Mexico + $2.5M
    France + $2.5M
    SK + $1.5M
    Brazil + $2.2M
    Australia + $2.3M
    India + $1.7M
    Russia + $1.9M
    Italy + $1.2M
    Germany + $1.7M 

    What do you think, will NWH's global BO beat TA's $1.52B when all is said and done? Considering no China release and maybe some Omicron lockdown-trouble.

  2. Hi all, great to see you again after so much time :)

     

    I've watched NWH 2 days ago here in Romania, it's doing great numbers around here too (even though 50% capacity restrictions are still in place). I really liked the movie, definitely the most rewatchable of the MCU Spidey ones, but - in my opinion, it's no way near IW or EG.

     

    Box office-wise I fully expect it to go above IW when we get actuals, the reception is phenomenal everywhere.

  3. A decent, satisfying, yet overly-exaggerated Star Wars movie, which had too many things to answer to and pay off.

     

    The good: Soundtrack, Visuals, Kylo Ren, Poe Dameron & Zorii, Palps and his presence.

    The ok: Rey, Lando, Babu, Jannah, D-0, Leia, PO&R2, Chewie, the story, the major twists we've got and the action-scenes.

    The bad: The script, Finn, Finn & Rose, Hux, Palp's cult and army.

     

    Better movie than TLJ, worse than TFA. 7/10. B+

    Also, OT>ST>PT. Here's my full ranking:

     

    Empire Strikes Back 10/10.

    A New Hope 9.5/10.

    Revenge Of The Sith 9/10.

    Return Of The Jedi 9/10.

    The Force Awakens 8/10.

    Rogue One 7.5/10.

    The Rise Of Skywalker 7/10.

    The Phantom Menace 6/10.

    Solo 6/10.

    The Last Jedi 5.5/10.

    Attack Of The Clones 4.5/10.

    The Clone Wars 3/10.

     

  4. Romania New Year's update:

     

    Local Youtuber-movie "5GANG: Un altfel de Craciun"/ "5GANG: Another Christmas" opens at no. 1, making $657K / 2.8M RON on OW. The movie is received very poorly, so legs should be pretty bad. Still, it's the biggest opening for a local movie.


    "Spies in Disguise" opens weak at no. 5, making just $92K / 398K RON on OW.

     

    "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker" makes it to $1.36M after two weekends in cinemas, while "Frozen II" sits at $2.71M, becoming, by far, the highest grossing animated movie ever in Romania.

     

    "Jumanji: The Next Level" also continues to impress. It currently sits at $1.72M.

    Counterpoint, 

     

    JJ Abrams didn't leave Rian with a clear plan. He also didn't direct it.  If he had done either, TLJ might've been not "the most divisive and fan dividing film of all".  So, still JJ's fault.

     

    True.  But if you say it's Disney's fault, you invite people to run rampant with conspiracy theories.  If you say it's Kathleen Kennedy's fault, you invite people to run rampant with sexist complaints.  I have zero interest in or time for either.  I'm not passing the buck.  This is on JJ.  

    I think it's fairly simpler imo. There's two guilty people: Rian Johnson AND the guy at Disney who thought having 2 (or 3!) different directors for a trilogy is a good idea.

     

    JJ directed TFA and that was a huge success. After such an accomplishment, I find it extremely improbable for him NOT to tell RJ about his vision for the future. RJ decided to ignore JJ's plans and directed TLJ his way. He did so poorly. JJ had no choice but to spend the whole third movie giving answers and explanations for TLJ and try to reconnect the SW fans by making a very fan-service driven movie.

     

    As for Iger or Kathleen, I don't think they are guilty for this. I'd only say they were naive.

    You guys are really starting to sound like Batman v Superman fans. "WB are totally happy with 873mil, they totally expected it to make that much!"

    Did I say that TROS' financial performance is a good one? Oh yeah, I probably did, or else you wouldn't assume, out of the blue, that I did, am I right? Scott thinking TROS might pass TLJ domestically is just as improbable as you thinking TROS won't pass $1B ww.

    Plus given that TLJ had Christmas Eve on the Sunday, it really should have had a bigger second weekend than TLJ.

    $220M OW vs $177m OW. Should it though?
