Americans have really lost all their family values I guess what a shame for that country 😪

Oh I didn't know about that ☠️ but yeah PR is going to be wilde if it turns out to be true. I just hope this kind of things doesn't overshame Halle's talent which is what most critics are praising.

So depending on how Mermaid performs 2.5M and maybe 3M previews in the cards? This one should be more walk-up heavy since it's an original.

I saw people shipping Halle and Jonah but is there really a rumor of they dating? I thought it was just a wish from stan twitter.

If Toy Story 5 doesn't do it, how long may Toy Story 4 admits record last? Tom Holland Spider-Man 4 is gonna be a hit but far from No Way Home hype and I think a Mario sequel will be a similar situation. Also not sure if the MCU overall still have the same hype that lead to Endgame but we'll find out in a couple of years I guess.

I wonder what this market grown is going to mean for Toy Story 5, The Kang Dinasty and Secret Wars. They're probably the strongest contenders to the first $100M movie for the country if Mario doesn't do it.

More 1M films than 2022 by the end of the year? Fast X, The Little Mermaid, The Marvels and Aquaman 2 would already put it at seven movies and The Nun was also above the million mark.

To be fair, Black Panther did more domestic but overseas money was still higher than every Thor movie, all the Guardians of the Galaxy movies, Spider-Man Homecoming, Batman, Superman and both Doctor Strange movies. As for The Little Mermaid it probably won't do Aladdin numbers because the former overperformed in Japan and South Korea but $600M OS should still be doable.

That's something that I think people mostly forget on the Little Mermaid over/under $100M OW discussion. On reddit specially there is the argument that Aladdin was way more popular which I may understand but Aladdin was also supposed to be closer to BATB in popularity than Jungle Book or Maleficent as for Memorial Day releases but it didn't translate into the actual opening weekend gross...using Cinderella adjusted numbers as a comparison I wouldn't be shocked if Snow White also comes close next year (to Aladdin OW).

Families represented a considerable part of Bumblebee audience, 35% to be exactly, so maybe the John Wick 4 comp goes up on the latter weeks. GB Afterlife audience was way older but not sure if that means worse, better or the same walkups of what Transformers run is going to get. Note: While I get that the 40 days of pre-sales makes it difficult, Bumblebee portion of families was higher than Fallen Kingdom although not by too much (30%) and the latter was older overall too, the last Transformers movies were still more than half under 25. In general It's not going to be like a family movie but it shouldn't be surprising if the pre-sales are less frontloaded than those.

Kinda curious on how Frozen is still taken into account not because it isn't big (it's huge) but unlike the others it won't really have any major push untill Frozen 3 outside of the typical holiday season unless I'm missing something. Also does they mean the MCU overall when quoting Avengers?

No hate to the actors but I'm kinda glad on how there have been little marketing to the human characters like they are necessary for Optimus develoment but in the end him and the rest of the autobots should be the main characters from the start (again no hate to the actors).

If the budget is over $300M not even $680M would be enough. In fact, not even Fast 9 numbers would be enough.

So looking at those numbers, how likely is The Little Mermaid having previews closer to Beauty and the Beast than Aladdin? Sorry for translation lol

Entonces, mirando esos números, ¿qué tan probable es que La Sirenita tenga vistas previas más cercanas a La Bella y la Bestia que a Aladdin?

It's weird because at the end of last year it placed fifth on the Fandango poll as for ALL the releases of 2023 but not even top 10 on the summer one? It's like the marketing did the oppositive of getting people hyped which I don't get because it doesn't look bad.

3 days or 4 days?

Well I'm taking back my comment about Ursula I guess.

Ursula is gonna get a back story isn't it? Lol. But those reactions sounds good, for general audience best live-action adaptation actually means a lot. The only I can think that they actually disliked is Mulan while Alice was meh.

Not sure if general audience really cares about the remakes reviews when buying the ticket for the opening weekend. But if they love it then maybe it has Jungle Book or Aladdin kind of legs.

The last part is kinda confirmed, 2/3 of ITS audience were male. Not even the MCU has that kind of ratio normally.
