    Just came back from THE MEG 2 and all i wanted and expected was to see HUGE SHARKS.

     

    What i got was a HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT.

     

    At least in the first half, the second half of the movie was exactly the kind of silly nonsense i want. But the characters .... arrrghh ... and the script ... uuuffffff ....

     

    5/10, not enough huge sharks to really please me, too much of them to make me really dislike this.

    You guys should really have a look at that link I provided where Guru recaps Titanic's magical run to 600 million. It's such a great recap of what the film did and how it captured a worldwide audience

     

    I had a coworker who was a single lady in her 60s. She went to a matinee showing every Saturday for over 20 weeks.  With the senior discount special she was spending about $5 for the movie, small soda and small popcorn.  That was a great value for 3+ hrs on an afternoon.

    I haven't really been keeping up with comps, but I thought it would be nice to see where Oppy is.

     

    I've included 3 comps that all behaved pretty different, especially with regards to indexing.  I imagine all 3 will drop a little bit by D0 due to screen constraints.

    Thanks for this. I always found these helpful and have really missed them.

    SMH, Everything is a conspiracy to these people. They'll say they are open minded but conspiracy people are closed minded. They "do the research" to come to conclusion that fits whatever they think is the "truth".

    You think they’d be happy with free tickets. 
     

    Alas, this video just proves they unfortunately have ulterior motives for seeing this particular film.

    I was checking the presales for the next few days and decided to sort it by tickets sold and well... just look at the translated names of some of these movies further down 🤣

     

    Any of these going to get released in the US?  Asking for a friend.

    I looked at the list of films that made a billion and since 2020

     

    Only

    Avatar 2, No Way Home, and Top Gun. Super mario

     

    One thing i noticed these are super massive event films and no longer do okay decent films just sleepwalk to 1 billion plus anymore which was so common in 2018 and 2019.

     

    There are a lot of films in that era i would doubt would get close to a billion today.

     

    Jurrasic world was one I think. 

     

    @Brainbug is going to be pretty disappointed that you forgot JWD.

    For a summer family film tentpole? When did those ever miss 3x pre covid? 

     

    How many of those family film tentpoles opened to 191m?  TLK is the 9th biggest opening weekend of all time.  Out of the top 20 OW, only 5 have had a multiplier over 3.  Two of those were during the Christmas Holidays and one was cultural phenomenon Black Panther.  Getting to 3X off an opening above 160m isn't that easy.

    A few thoughts after finally seeing this movie in a PACKED Massachusetts theater. Premium theater which giant seats so it doesn't hold 400 people many more, maybe not even 200, but it was pretty much full, just about entire front section was full.

     

    • Honestly - how many people here saying it will drop like a rock have actually seen the film? My crowd ate it up entirely, this was a classic Marvel type reaction. Tons of laughing throughout (ESPECIALLY the final 40 seconds of the film LOL at that entire sequence), clapping at end. There are a handful "fan service" moments and that's it. I will believe legs are a disaster when it actually happens. This is a very solid superhero film that the casual moviegoer will no doubt enjoy and I expect legs to reflect such. Twitter is not the real world. It is not "one of the best superhero movies ever" but I can see why some people are so high on it. The fundamentals of the story are very strong, the cast delivers in spade - Miller is excellent, as are the 2 parents in very limited roles. The 2 friends that I met up with two watch film were in full agreement that this is their favorite superhero film a while (though neither have seen Spiderverse or NWH randomly). This is the type of film that WB needed to be making and releasing circa 2015-2016.
    • WTF are people talking about with special effects? Again Twitter isn't real life. Nobody in the theater is rewatching set clips in slow motion. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary at all. The multiverse crap is clearly supposed to look the way that it does. 
    • It is, however, 'modern DC' film. The concept is excellent, the execution is actually very good here, but the script could be a bit tighter. Can't help but think that, like The Batman before it, the story here is so large that it could almost separate into 2 separate films. The Zod invasion works fine but can't help thinking there could have been more here to make it more powerful. 

    A- and fully expecting solid holds from here on out.
