First Half - A+
2nd Half - What. The. Hell.
I am avid fan of Fincher, but did he really had to insert his movies into Batman? Also, I regret taking my wife to it. There are questionable scenes in quick successions, which are easy to miss, if no one points it out.
Overall, C+/B-

Any country higher than this?

I keep hearing Uncharted is big IP and all that, but Uncharted is not big at all compared to Other Franchise that had movies made...
It doesn't even come close to Pokemon (400M), Resident Evil (123M), Sonic(145M), Assasin Creed (155M) Franchises.
Monter Hunter (80M) & Tomb Raider (85M) are close but still have sold twice the amount of Uncharted (44M), yet people say It's a big IP that is helping or will help its box office.
Warcraft Franchise is altogether different Beast, only Pokemon Franchise in above mentioned games has value more than its 11 billion worth.

It might be enoying for you to have someone low-bal a movies end total but different people have different tendencies. LPLC lowballs movies a bit often, meaning his numbers are often the low end of what the movie might do. But in some cases movie do have worse legs than expected and at that point LPLC's numbers probably are very close to the real numbers. It's not because someone likes to causious with their predicting that it's bad / not credible. Some people like to be causious, some people like to be bold, some take a road in between. As long as you take in to account people's prediciton tendencies the information they give you is still valuable.
Not annoying, its just that he says things in absolute ways sometimes. I am just saying he should make some charts to show, not everyday but once every few weeks when he predicts.
Also, Pessimism is good. Its just that He is there puttin effort in almost every thread of all countries.

At this point, 5M admits are lock and 7M admissions are unlikely, let's try 6M admits in the end.
On 12/20/2021 at 9:49 PM, LPLC said:Unlikely, AEG's first weekend was almost 800k more admissions than NWH, but be careful I'm not saying it's impossible with huge legs (3.5x legs) and with the good reviews and the right WOM it's still possible (I would say 25% chance it will happen), however I'm sure that despite the Christmas holidays, the film will be more frontloaded than you think. If it reaches 6 million admissions I will already be very happy, that's the goal we should try to aim for for
On 12/27/2021 at 9:15 PM, LPLC said:7 millions admissions are now 100% dead. The objective remains 6 millions admits.
On 1/3/2022 at 10:47 PM, LPLC said:Not impossible but it's unlikely, the best scenario I can see is 6,9M just under AEG
On 1/10/2022 at 9:47 PM, LPLC said:6,75M I think
On 1/24/2022 at 2:27 AM, LPLC said:I think now NWH is close to 6.6M admissions (or maybe even surpassed that mark this Sunday), 6.75M admits seems locked, now let's see if it can surpass AEG (6.943M admissions) and especially 7M admits.
On 1/27/2022 at 4:14 PM, LPLC said:Let's try 7M if it's possible, no big competition and holidays in less than 3 weeks makes me optimistic
Its okay to be wrong but how is it okay to be wrong every week when if you look at chart and compare to any movie, you can see it it was getting higher.
If you keep doing it, you won't have any credibility left. Atleast make a chart or something, to show how it can drop.

Was looking at Kobiz and there are very few movies that were this strong on Tuesday after month of release.
If upcoming weekend drops within 20%, won't it leg to 7.5m+? @imbruglia @charlie Jatinder?

Tuesday + wednesday:
NWH - R$6.22M
Sing 2 - R$1.88M
Monica - R$900k
Matrix - R$600k+
The King's Man - R$500k
NWH have now beaten 15M tickets (R$275M), Matrix Ressurrections should pass 1 million tickets in the next couple of days and Monica will reach 500k tickets today.
How much Scream will affect NWH here? 10m lc for weekend possible, now that weekdays were near 8m? 283-285m by end of week-end?

IDK what you are reading. Someone said that NWH does make IW run look like sort of underwhelming and I just pointed out the big factors that this film has in favour and IW didn't.
As simple as that.
Sorry for your 2300 students not watching the film, but gotta tell you that we have less than 5% impact from CoVID in India, if at all. A dubbed regular Telugu masala film is doing wonder. If RRR was released, it would have been probably 2nd film ever to do ₹1000cr.
So, Kids are rushing to watch Pushpa? You are saying that Masala film is propped up by Kids?
I gave an example of demography which hasn't been able to see movies and you laughed it out. Marvel fims isn't just watched by adults above 19 but also by kids above 6 or 7.
Whatever, I will give it rest, you are hotshot here so whatever you say has more weight, even if those figures are juggled out of thin air.

Avengers: Endgame has nearly 400M tickets sold worldwide. Only one film has sold more tickets than it in last 50 years. i.e. Titanic.
It will remain like that most likely with decrease in theater going in time.
Was Endgame's run legendary? Yes.
Do marvelites accept that? YES.
BUT, Is there a reason for you to put that "in yer face" every time someone talks about NWH? No.

CoVID impact is there if the cinemas are closed somewhere. If they aren't, its business as usual.
Please bhai. You are speaking nonsense. I am assistant teacher and my whole school recently closed down due winter and Covid, but we had plans for winter excursion and do you know what kids wanted to do? Our School has 2300 Kids and 79% votes went to "Watch NWH in cinema" vs. Trip to Taj Mahal, which would have been 2 days trip.
We do survey in classes before deciding where to take Kids and most had given reason that they had not been allowed by parents to watch any movies in theatre past 2020.
I mean, I too have watched NWH just once before Cinema closed down. I know hundreds of people in my own society who didn't go see it but had watched IW and EG many times simply because they lost someone to COVID and aren't ready to take risk by going in houseful cinema.
I understand you want to be champion for IW and EG but you don't need to put NWH down.

this one shud have gone to OTT and instead Shahids Jersey should have released on 24th...now its postponed from Dec 31st slot due to cases
Watched it and it's good actually. They can always release it to OTT anyway.
Maybe, RRR will postponed too, if it happens during new year's 1st week and 2nd it can salvage things.

Sony gross number are sometime whack especially during opening weekend. Just ignore them.
Film as per official numbers did ₹32.67cr Nett. There is 18% GST in India, with two main states, TN and GJ having local body tax. The overall number comes around 20%.
32.67*1.2= 39.2
Thanx for explaining.
Every other news site, Reporters and Analyst use 30% though. So, that's how 12% difference comes about, eh and It only affects movies after 2019 only, then?
Tbh, I only care about it because your method put IW ahead of NWH lol. India official BO only report in Nett. Collection anyway.
Spidey got 32.67 Crores.
Infinity was 31.3 Crores.

@charlie Jatinder has truer and more accurate numbers than what the studios advertise.
Not really, he uses official sources too. And the official sources in India always give only Nett. Collection.
It's his gross collection which always come out different. Atleast for movies, I care about xD like Endgame or No Way Home.
Grooss Collection = Nett collection + Taxes.

Personal predictions based on the predicted ow both dom and os
1,4-1,6 billion WITHOUT CHINA ,if and thats a big IF releases in china then add 200-300 (could be higher) for 1,6-1,9 billion ww.I know that this numbers may seem unrealistic but really they are not ,IF the ow goes as predicted ww then with the legs i applied which are realistic even more so with the WOM that is having we get this result.

If we had a good China date it should have pulled 330+ probably, though let’s see how HK and Taiwan end up.My prediction is 1.4b+ too, if something drastic like cinema closure or new variant problem dont occur.

Can't speak for others but I absolutely hate PP's school mates and the whole movie is those annoying fuckers on a bus or in a hotel or wherever. I just hate them period. Also, nothing interesting about PP's friendship with Ned who serves no purpose but the fat comic relief stereotype. PP and Harry had stakes. This bozo is waste of time and makes me wanna punch the screen.

Zendaya also great, should put "she can't act" BS to rest.
Surprised how much I loved Ned's arc. Great use of the character.
This U-turn is what I am talking about... Within span of few hours, people went from Nay to Yay... I liked your review most.

The EU based guild, I am in rarely talks about movies and MCU - even less. Most of 'em are from Germany, France, Italy and UK.
We were waiting for people to come back and start the RAID on world boss but who were supposed to come after they had watched the New Spidey movie bailed on us at last hour to go watch the movie again.....But they didn't leave it at that, they came online and hyped the fuck out of movie so much on discord voice chat...One of 'em only talking in exclamations... how movie is f*cking, gankest and dopeset and f*ckin greatest or I guess that's only thing I could understand from what he was saying (he mixed in german words in between)
So, yeah... No RAID for 2night and 2morrow.... they all are going to watch it now... or 2morrow, whenever they get ticket.
I don't know how I will wait another 20 hours now....
