disappointing number for China - The Lion King. 54/118? I was expecting 125/350. Japan could still make it to 200 with a 20x OW multiplier. 1B + America should have happened, hopefully Avatar gets scary and emotional with animals too
Have you seen musicals' BO in China?

TLK expansion saved it from dropping 50%. It dropped 49.7%. So they may try to soften another sharp drop with more expansion. They want 600M so that's that.
Are they gonna expand three movies? Other studios are gonna be pissed

Looks like TS4 will pass TS3 on Friday. Nice run even if it is a little disappointing.
Were people expecting ts4 to outgross ts3?

TLK will be too fresh for any Labor Day action. A matter of TS4 and/or Aladdin.
Tlk already had its expansion on its third weekend😉.
It will be both ts4 and aladdin that get labor day.

It can have decent legs and a decent turnout international total to help recover.
F&F movies and "decent legs" don't appear in the same sentence.

not really? Marvel Studios didn't produce that movie for Disney.
that's like calling every Nolan film a half WB film cus he usually works for them.
Disney owns Marvel while WB doesn't own Nolan. Simple like that.

How many franchises tend to make a billion dollars into their ninth film? All good things must come to an end. I'm sure Universal has made plenty of money off this series. I'm sure they'll be fine no matter what this one ends up making it.
How many franchises have a 200m budget for their ninth film?

People don’t think it’s a f&f movie

That's a completely different conversation.
(And I just checked . Rampage was 120M and Skyscraper was 125M)
Exactly. You don't give a Rock movie 200m budget. Universal knows what kind of movie H&S is and will market it that way.

I think Hobbs & Shaw's underperforming because we all expected it to act like a F&F film. Only issue? Movie's been promoted like a Rock Movie. And if you look at his last five OWs in the past two years:
24.9M Skyscraper
35.7M Rampage
36.1M Jumanji
18.5M Baywatch
35.5M Central Intelligence
Average: 30.14M
Take out the BW Outlier: 33.05M
Thursday Night Previews:
2.40M Rampage
1.95M Skyscraper
(Which is as low as it's comping out to currently at Lincoln Square)
So if we take the F&F out of the expectations, I guess the movie's performing as expected?
(And, I will be the first to admit, I totally jumped on the F&F bandwagon. My Summer Game will SUUUFFFER because of it.)
Are their budget also 200m?

You all realize 40 mil is great right? Or are you guys stuck in your bubble as usual?
It needs 400m to break even. With this opening, it will miss that

TLK is a major underperformance relative to expectations.
With 1.6B, it must be the most successful underperformer in history.

People are aware that "Marvel vs. DC" as a phenomenon was basically entirely made up by people at Marvel & DC as a means to goose their paying marks into buying more copies of both publishers' comics? It's only as bad as it is now because the people in charge of the media reporting on this stuff were children who believed in it fully like it was WWF or WCW... and whose fandom is much more like professional wrestling fandom than anything else...
The studios aren't really competing with each other, and if one of the studios (or publishers) goes down the other will actually be hurt by the lack of competition and contrast. Nobody at either place wants that.... mostly because most people who work at the one place end up working at the other... and some work for both at the same time...
Actually, the pro wrestling thing is a good comparison. Eventually, WWF, who was scared of competition and whose endgame WAS to take out WCW, bought them entirely.... and you know what happened? WWF got crappier. Way crappier. And a lot of talent lost out...
This is not what Marvel Studios or DC Entertainment are doing to each other. They're not really in competition like that. They're both just trying to make money for their investors. They can both win without the other needing to lose.You are right. Its not even a competition.

The recent Pixar entries are all interesting to examine. They've all done gonzo business. All gotten pretty good to great reviews. And all have basically generated no conversation. Like, "Hey, here's this thing I liked with a sequel. Yep, still good. Peace out." The last one that really got into the cultural conversation was Inside Out. Even Coco, with all the accolades and people loving it got quiet soon after release.
That’s how family movies are, less online discussion. That doesn’t mean people have lower interest than other genres.

Shazam is a kid's movie. How much do you expect it to gross? Plus it didn't click anywhere globally. China really hates it.
