  8. Bohemian Rhapsody has a shot at knocking Solo out of the Top 10 domestic for 2018:

     

    https://www.the-numbers.com/movies/custom-comparisons-extended/Solo-A-Star-Wars-Story/Bohemian-Rhapsody-(2018)/Star-is-Born-A-(2018)

     

    That happening would reduce Disney down another movie for 2018 from 5 to 4.

    For other up-for-awards-people that Nolan may/could cast, maybe Rachel Weisz? She fits the conventional Nolan female mould (attractive brunette).

    Weisz was considered for The Dark Knight Rises at one point. He likes his past/future awards winners.

     

    I also would like to see Nolan consider upcoming British talent such as Hannah John-Kamen.

    Always wondered by The Numbers don't try to do more with those graphs. Something really basic as just using the average of films released that month would yield much more useful results and probably would not be that hard to code. They have enough data to produce a decent average.

    I've done so here:

     

     

     

    They and others in the game need to adjust for the calendar.

  14. Domestic:

    2015 Fandango survey for most anticipated movie: #1 Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Opened #1 and finished #1 at the box office for 2015.

    2016 Fandango survey for most anticipated movie: #1 Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Opened #3 and finished #1 at the box office for 2016.

    2017 Fandango survey for most anticipated movie: #1 Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Opened #1 and finished #1 at the box office for 2017.

    2018 Fandango survey for most anticipated movie: #5 Solo: A Star Wars Story. Opened #6 and finished #10 at the box office for 2018 unless something else sneaks in and bumps it out of the Top 10.

    2019 Fandango survey for most anticipated movie: #3 Star Wars: Episode IX.

    2019 Atom Tickets survey for most anticipated movie: #6 Star Wars: Episode IX.

    2019 IMDb most anticipated movie: Star Wars: Episode IX did not chart unlike Avengers: Endgame and Captain Marvel at the top (a bunch of other movies that did make that list certainly won't be in the Top 10 in 2019, but it's still probably a better sign to be topping it than off it.)

     

    As the marketing for Episode IX finally starts, I'll be keeping an eye on what level of search traffic the Star Wars term gets up to and sustains this time around.

     

    As for the IGN article, I think the numbers there have been overestimated in the aggregate.

  15. What spurred my data table post earlier today was that IGN article that thinks 2019 is:

     

    $5.352B Total Top 10 Domestic Box Office
    $535.2M Average Top 10 Domestic Box Office
    $493.8M Median Top 10 Domestic Box Office

     

    Quote

    Projected 2018 Domestic Box Office Top 10

    1. Star Wars: Episode IX - $886.2 million
    2. Avengers: Endgame - $824.7 million
    3. Toy Story 4 - $658.2 million
    4. Captain Marvel - $627.5 million
    5. Frozen 2 - $548.7 million
    6. The Lion King $438.9 million
    7. Jumanji Sequel - $386.3 million
    8. IT Chapter 2 - $356.8 million
    9. Godzilla: King of Monsters - $318.4 million
    10. Hobbs & Shaw: $306.2 million

     

    Total/Average/Median seemed unlikely to me based on history.

    Disagree. The Fandango yearly poll Is often overlooked for how accurate when it comes to gauging if a movie is going to be huge or not. If you go back and look at them through the years, whatever makes the top 5 has almost always opened big at least. The only movies to miss the top 5 anticipated on their respective year this decade and still gross over 400 are Frozen and Jumanji. It’s the 6-10 spots that tend to be a bit shakier. But it’s always a good sign for a movie being massive if it’s in the top 5 of that poll and a bad sign if it’s not.

    There's always movies that sneak into the Top charts that Fandango doesn't see coming and movies that are overly represented. The Top 3 have been represented each time and it's been pretty close to accurate for the top grossing movie (A:IW and Black Panther were fairly close but in the reverse order).

    Though obviously aided by the December holiday season, Aquaman could have one of the best multipliers ever for a live action comic book movie. Multipliers aren't directly comparable given summer comic book films similarly benefit from summer weekdays, higher opening weekends make a film at least somewhat more frontloaded usually (so high multipliers are generally more impressive the larger the opening weekend), etc - but still, good WOM seems to be driving a strong performance over the holidays. Also, it does seem to highlight how studios have avoided tentpole-ing a comic book film during the December holidays until now.

    Ya the behavior of the audience in December more than any other time of the year takes the pressure off of openings and delays it thus increasing the multipliers.

  19. I thought it was fine though could've been better when I saw it earlier this week. Mortal Engines was my Star Wars substitute this December and I had a better time than I did with the real McCoy from a year ago. Genre fans should consider giving it a shot but it won't turn anyone else into believers. Directed by a first time director and VFX guy and that shows a lot in the visuals in the movie which resemble concept art. The trailer is pretty representative of the movie (if you disliked the trailer the movie won't do anything to change people's minds I think and vice versa) though the characters of Tom, Valentine, and Katherine are the other major POV characters besides Hester that aren't as represented in the marketing as they are in the actual movie. It's obviously not going to be a box office success story but I'm glad stuff like this still gets made.

  20. Bumblebee has the double headwind of both prior domestic and foreign box office returns to contend with. It's not like they gave these movies a break like WB did with Batman after Batman and Robin (1997) all the way until Batman Begins (2005) which was a tonal and continuity break with the past. It's more like an X-Men First Class or something like that I think. Well, at least the feedback to Bumblebee seems better and the budget is lower, but the previous TF movie just came out last year...there used to be 2-3 years in between releases.
