The 1st weekend of September is really bad.

No to all this assumption fest. I'm sorry but not invested on if TGM crosses 700M or not. It's already a historical success and if it crosses 700M I will celebrate. But I don't really think about it that much anymore. When it happens, it happens. And Yes, horribly boring. Mack & Rita making less 2M, Fall also, Bodies Bodies Bodies doesn't seem to be a breakout. Boring movies with bad to ok performances. Mostly a dumping yard that won't get in the Top 10 except BBB. Bullet Train 2nd Weekend drop does look to be quite big. Let's see. And just holdovers remaining. And next weekend I see potential with Beast and Dragon Ball like I said which makes really excited and none of them is opening to 200M. But nice try. Summmary: A awfully slow weekend, with studios trying to take advantage of it with movies with bare marketing and that no one really cares and that the studios probably don't either or have no confidence. And the lack of new releases and those few releases not performing as well as they should is sad. ON THE BRIGHT SIDE. August 2023 does look MUCH better and MAYBE this August just suffered from VFX backlog. And the next few weeks do have stronger movies releasing. Maybe BodiesBB comes with some really good holds in the coming weeks also.

Genuine question. Is September 1st the start of the Fall season? Is August the end of our movie Summer season?

This has to be one of the worst and most boring weekend of the year. At least next weekend we have Beast and Dragon Ball which are 5x times more promising than this shit-filled weekend.

In the set photos there were a lot of Raimi Spider-Man easter eggs. This is not MCU. It's Sony verse.

Skyler from DisInsider said we are getting movies news at D23

I just realized that Pixar has a movie 1 week before that we should get to know about at D23. And also right before in February there's Garfield. I don't see Disney running from the March 1st date. So it either happens or Kung Fu ends up moving.

Love to see 2024 shaping up

Wonder how much in profits, from theatrical run only, Thor has made by now. PROFITS. If I had to shoot, I would say 62M-65M.

The yellow does look really bad

I'm really excited for this.

September does look much better overall in terms of new releases. Hopefully 20th Century "Barbarian" becomes a breakout horror movie. It has screened and reactions were really good.

I want to remember everyone of this interview of Kennedy in May 2022 about the future of movies. https://comicbook.com/movies/news/star-wars-rogue-squadron-movie-on-hold-pushed-side-lucasfilm-kathleen-kennedy-patty-jenkins/ Call it bs if you want. But I think we will hear at D23 what are the next 2 Star Wars movies at least. If not? I'll fucking riot.

I know people here like to joke about Star Wars movies not coming (which is understandable)but I'll say this. At SW Celebration, they went all out on streaming. We won't get a SW movie in 2023. Period. If they don't schedule something for October 2024 or August 2024 or maybe July 2024, we won't get a Star Wars movie until December 2025. Still. I predict right here and now that at D23 we will get BIG Star Wars theatrical updates. BIG updates. If not a whole ass trilogy or even a roadmap, at least confirm 2 movies.

BRUH...
