So I was wondering about how this particular comp will hold. T-8 Days, WW84 pre-sales were 48% of Dark Phoenix. T-7 Days is expected to be 57% Approx. Final numbers of two may be close call. That's not a good thing. Edit: If looking at number of days of sale. After 2 days, DP was 0.75mn on 28k shows 12 days out, while WW84 was 0.8mn on 33k shows 8 days out. Can say head to head but gotta put the difference of 4 days.

WTF they were thinking? The only market in world that may give them some money and they are having racist jokes on them.

The problem is that for non fanbase films or family/kids heavy films we may go with narrative like, "lets see if it pick up". But for a CBMs pre-sales rush can be seen from day one, especially for something like WW which was expected to do $150mn range. So I am not sure how much pick up can we really expect. The one reason could be that may be people didn't know advance is open, that has happened with few films, but after two days, there should be some pick up in pace.

What if film's PR is like, let's have fun and spreading all these reports of, "you got a role in Spider-man 3", "you got a role in Spider-man 3".

Does it? Yeah Gamora don't have a reason to go back in 2014 timeline but she has no love for this galaxy GoTG either. May be she bond with Nebula and Peter-Gamora eventually become a thing, that will still be a good film to watch. See the potential.

Good of you to speak ill of dead man.

So who did Tony Stark pissed to get so many people revolved around Peter.

That is one big factor. But then I see, in years we have seen Chinese lapping up re-releases like new releases. Harry Potter pre-sales were big. Spirited Away release last year had really good pre-sales. All of those films have Blu Rays out for years. Been 8 years, but Titanic did over $100mn in re-release. So not sure if that factor is stopping even fans from rushing for tickets. That brings the question. Mulan, opened 55mn, which now looks HUGE after seeing WW84 initial advance, a week later it was bashed universally and HD rips were out. Just how much did Disney fucked up by not releasing it 2 weeks earlier.

China pre-sales started.

That shouldn't be. Rescue is #1 on Friday but those numbers are fake. On Saturday WW84 is at top.

Wonder Woman 1984 T-8 Days Midnight - ¥0.24mn on 2543 shows Friday - ¥0.80mn (+¥0.61mn) on 33k shows Saturday - ¥0.24mn (+¥0.19mn) on 15k shows Sunday - ¥0.06mn (+0.03mn) on 12.5k shows Total - ¥1.34mn (+¥0.83mn) Comps They don't mean much this far out. May start making some sense by T-4 days perhaps. 15% of Spider-man: Far From Home T-8 Days (3 days of Sale) - ¥34mn Opening Day 17.5% of Venom T-8 Days (5 days of Sale) - ¥39mn OD 47% of Aquaman T-7 Days (1 day of Sale) - ¥74mn OD 78% of TENET T-7 Days (1 day of Sale) - ¥44mn OD The sales aren't showing any rush for now as such. Of course these early numbers don't mean as much as the Wednesday and Thursday before release do, but still a big opener CBM will show some rush. Let's see how it pick up in coming days. If I have to guess, less than ¥100mn OD may be for sure. Don't see it crossing TENET in first weekend as of now as @Gavin Feng said. Any specific reason for lower rush Gavin? Projections Take with huge grain of salt.

Yeah I am not sure about that film. Only three things I remember is Gewn (?) dying, film cut before the action begin, and third being Peter saving Jamie Foxx, he becoming Electro & that New York street scene where the two fights(?).

What I don't wanna see is dead characters from other films reprising their roles. I mean sure having Spider-Man from other two live action films is pretty cool, but then follow their community too. If Jamie Fox as Electro died in the film, I actually don't remember TASM2 at all, or Dr Octopus died in SM2, keep them dead.

Its one of reason I love it. Yeah there are some holes in there but acceptable ones.

I think HTTYD3 was bigger of 3 in India.

Because they weren't dead dead. They were just kind of dead. Gamora didn't come. Widow didn't come.

Demon Slayer Worldwide till 07 Dec 2020 Japan - $276.66 mn Taiwan - $18.92mn Hong Kong - $3.75mn Thailand - $0.98mn Vietnam - $0.02mn Rest - $0.75mn Approx Total - $301.08mn Approx or ¥31.5Bn Crossed $300mn worldwide.

Pre-sales started for Wonder Woman 1984. Not as strong as MCU films, but can say par Aquaman.

So this is gonna be a Spider verse film after all. I am denying accepting it for sometime now but guess its happening. I don't know how it's gonna fit with MCU timeline/plan Feige has set. There are ways it can go wrong badly, hopefully Feige finds a way

Now see that's why you aren't on WB board but on BoT thread boards.

The last few weeks went very fast this week is slow. Its only Wednesday yet.

What Disney need is original content. IPs have started to dry. Yeah they have Avatar sequels to run and MCU isn't showing signs of going down yet but there may come time. Their next biggest thing Live Action remakes has almost exhausted with bigger films. Star Wars outside Skywalker saga will be something to watch out. Pixar is well Pixar but they were relying on sequels in later end of 2010s. They need new IPs, Nolan could be one for that. If Nolan want $200mn, that's worth it.
