    Yeah but with Peele's draw wouldn't you expect a little higher hold than Black Phone?

    Deadline predicted 15-20 on Friday and it went for 23.

    Its quite possible, usually early saturday estimates are a bit conservative but nothing too far off, i could definitely see Nope pulling 47-48m but if early WOM is mixedish then maybe it doesn't hold quite as well either

    How can Deadline predict 44.5 mil opening when it doesn't know the walk up numbers? Its saying that it'll make only 25 mil sat and sun?

    If Nope follows the same Sat-Sun holds as Black Phone it comes out to 45.04m and thats a film you'd expect to be a little less frontloaded cause Derrickson doesn't have the draw of Peele so 44.5 is quite reasonable imo

    The big difference between Batman Begins and Man of Steel is reception, one was extremely well-liked, the other was very mixed. 

    and yet mos did almost 3x its production budget and the plan should have been to address the stuff people didn't like from the movie in sequels and not to try and cheat Event films but alas here we are

    Why would any actor want to take over playing the same version of Superman as Cavill when his take/films didn't work?

    Money, Fame and with the right director any project can work, superman isn't some impossible project to succeed with it, hell MoS turned a profit and it was mixed in terms of receptions

  5. Man of Steel did better relative to its production budget than Batman Begins did and it also had the stink of Superman returns to deal with like the BB did with B&R, BvS and JL failed cause Snyder/the scrip were just ass and WB greedily wanting to do event films like marvel without proper buildup like marvel.

     

    The simple solution would just be to get some new director in their (McQuarrie who actually pitched or maybe Vaughn/Kosinski) and let them reboot the character with Cavill like Taika did with Hemsworth
