    It did change though. Weren't they free to leave the Matrix after the end of Revolutions?
  2. Menor the Destroyer
    Couldn't they just deage him?
  3. Menor the Destroyer
    Yeah I could see not having Morpheus in it at all but why recast? Why get rid of your best actor?
  4. Menor the Destroyer
    I will be happy to be surprised. I want this movie to do well. I do think the opening could be good in some areas but I'm worried about legs.
  5. Menor the Destroyer
    Yeah, it seems to be working so far. Although I forgot to take into account that the trailer release date was announced in advanced and set to a premiere. That would definitely inflate the initial view/like count.

    Ok so he forgot about the Matrix and has to be retaught? Ehhhh...this looks very rehashy. Trailer is doing very well though so far. Without HBO Max this will have nice BO potential.

    Man this Djokovic-Berrettini quarterfinal...Berrettini started off really well, then Djokovic found peak form and goddamn is he disgustingly good at his best.
  8. Menor the Destroyer
    Yeah looks like. Though I don't remember how much there was for Shang-Chi.

    I think the damaged/not-for-sale seats are making a big difference with Friday having a much bigger showcount.

    Venom 2 MTC2 Thursday Showings: 3213 Seats Sold: 5272/520197 Friday Showings: 5087 Seats Sold: 5221/838958 Thursday finished about an hour before Friday (finished just now) since the run is much shorter. Thursday pace has really fallen (it probably is a couple of hundred higher in reality though since a few showings aren't returning data). 24-hr number should be significantly below SC. Friday on the other hand is looking quite strong but I'm not sure how much of it is the unusual amount of damaged/not-for-sale seats I'm seeing.

    Are you planning to do a Megaplex update today? Main reason I'm curious is because in MTC2 it seems like Friday is actually selling more tickets than Thursday, but I'm not sure if that's because MTC2 is showing an unusual amount of blocked/damaged seats, or if this one is actually shaping up that backloaded. Would be interested to see what the Th/Fri ratio at Megaplex is like.

    Yeah I think Feige should do it and he needs to be careful about what he says. Frankly I just don't like the idea of an apology for a statement that was perfectly fine.
  13. Menor the Destroyer
    Maybe not since BW was summer, so it would make better use of that 5 PM than Venom of the 4 PM. Hard to say.
  14. Menor the Destroyer
    If he does a Cena-type thing, then it definitely will piss off Western (or at least American) audiences. A lot of people are tired of every celebrity knuckling down to China. Probably wouldn't affect BO too much but it wouldn't be a good PR look at all.

    Venom 2 was at 4250/521393 with 3213 shows at MTC2 a couple of hours ago. I am doing another run now but it's broadly doing similar numbers to Shang-Chi, with a slight edge due to the much higher show count. A healthy start I would say.
  16. Menor the Destroyer
    Runtime will only help the OW as it allows theaters to squeeze in many shows. As for quality, it's impossible to say how the runtime would affect it.
  17. Menor the Destroyer
    So far from partial data I am seeing it about equal to SC start or a bit higher, though it also had tickets go on sale at a better time.
  18. Menor the Destroyer
    1 hr 35 according to Cinemark. Yeah, very short for a CBM. It's an interesting choice, hopefully it means that it's a tight and fast-paced film.
  19. Menor the Destroyer
    Huge showcount for Thursday at MTC2. 3206 shows. That is 20% more than Black Widow started with!!! They are really betting big on this. Will run numbers once I get out of class. Edit: So the runtime is only 1 hr 35 min. That, along with the 4 pm start, explains the high show count.
  20. Menor the Destroyer
    IT trailer went viral. 197m views in 24 hours. It was everywhere on my social media. Dune has not had anything close to that level.
  21. Menor the Destroyer
    I think I still need to actually see to appreciate the context though you explained it well. I went back and rewatched the Gringotts dragon scene, which confirmed my memory, I didn't find it all that amazing, though it was a functional action scene. Buckbeak's flight was really good but was a very different type of scene.
  22. Menor the Destroyer
    Reception in East Asia overall seems fairly meh. So it will probably just do baseline MCU numbers, nothing special.
  23. Menor the Destroyer
    It was better than the Harry Potter examples you posted. Well, better than the Hallows scene and the Goblet of Fire dragon, at least. Buckbeak's flight is a different type of scene entirely. Not better than Avatar's creature action (but that is an extremely high bar, Avatar had exceptional effects). Haven't seen GOT to compare. Also the CGI on the dragons was good. I had heard there was some issue with the third-act CGI and was pleasantly surprised that they actually looked nice.
  24. Menor the Destroyer
    I don't think it would be much of a fight if Spidey has to split. I am not sure about Matrix 4 but it should still destroy Kingsman.
  25. Menor the Destroyer
    No, not at all.
