3 hour run time isn't worth the commitment on a weekday for many adults if i had to guess
People prefer to pay full price on Monday than discounted on Tuesday?

I woudnt expect too much of for the Tuesday bump. Lately, theyve been rather lackluster compared to pre-Covid times.
Still can't understand how the batman dropped on its first Tuesday

Not sure why people call these drops bad or anything. Batman is down 69% from two weeks ago, but that was opening Tuesday and big films shave off a substantial demand in the first week. Uncharted is down just 21%, and No Way Home is down just 26%. Better wait for Fri bumps before jumping to conclusions.
People expect it to cross 400m dom. But the recent drops do not look promising.

It doesn't make sense to me that Tue decreased from Mon with cheaper tickets.

i asked him about the source , he told that me that he has a personal source idk if we can belive him he's a writer for a website
It's closer to 4m than 5m

What's with the meltdown? 130m is still acceptable and it has a good chance opening to that.

Okay, 2 and half.
They did two campaigns at most. They didn't even finish the first one before the pandemic happened. And the second one is a continued campaign which costs way less.

That's what I was looking at.
Even yourself should know 301m production budget is absurd, right?

... Bond costs 250M, theatrical release, got 3 full marketing campaigns, and obviously is part of one gigantic franchise.
Dune costs 165M, have one normal marketing campaign, it's on HBO Max and it's a scifi movie.
This comparisson is just absurd.
Bond has a much higher overseas. Worldwide it should double Dune's BO. It has a better profit.

Bond had a 301M dollar budget though.
I don't know what source indicates 301m. Trades say its production budget is 250m, and Bond has a much higher overseas BO.

Will Bond even reach 140m? Just bad
140m is fine. Dune won't even cross 100m with ease.

I know, this is off topic and I'll just indulge this one msg on the subject here.
This gives a taste where the $165m went: https://www.creativebloq.com/features/dune-costume-design
They designed hundreds of costumes and produced over 1000. I know having ordered and made original design spacesuits it adds up quickly. Then Villeneuve insisted shooting in places like Jordan's Wadi Rum and using as much as possible real sets. He built giant detailed sets like Nolan in Interstellar. The actors loved it because they hate shooting in front of greenscreens like used a lot in MCU (not a criticism). Timothée Chalamet said aptly that he remembers twice shooting in front of greenscreen and the rest in a real desert or in these huge sets. Watching those behind the scenes videos of them we can understand where the money goes...
Congratulations to Dune actors but I think you explained to the wrong person. I understand where Dune's money went.

Not so great...
That is up to the general audience to decide, not up to you or me...

165M is amazing considering every MCU film costs 200M+ and looks worse
shang chi costs 150m and it looks great

I mean, The Suicide Squad is also a CBM and a sequel to a 330m DOM, 700m WW movie (that nobody liked, granted) + Birds of Prey which is sort of a cult movie(?). Not exactly a fair comparison with Dune, which is a novel adaptation and fanbase-driven but is still technically new material for a lot of people.
I consider both in a similar situation: small but hardcore fanbase while general audience don't have much interest.

Considering TSS is r-rated, 5.1m is not good.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-22 and Counting
Sellouts Showings Seats Sold Total Seats Perct Sold TOTALS 0 88 229 19301 1.19% Comp
0.281x of Black Widow's First Day of Presales (3.71M)
0.170x of Black Widow T-22 (2.25M)
1.974x of The Suicide Squad T-22 (8.09M)
0.449x of Shang-Chi's First Day of Presales (3.95M)
Despite being a sequel, I do think Venom 2 isn't a perfect comp with the MCU titles, as those just simply put have a bigger fanbase and fan rush towards them IMO that Venom won't really get this early on. I do however think The Suicide Squad works here and so far, that is an...okay preview number, even if it would cause a decrease in OW. How big a decrease, and whether a decrease should be expected or disappointing or whatever is up to you.
Either way, not the greatest start in the world, but nothing that can't be improved upon.
Venom should have bigger fanbase than Shang Chi, who was unknown to many.
