Isn't that an estimate on dislikes? I seem to recall that we peons don't actually know what the actual like/dislike ratio is anymore.
Not saying it isn't popular. Am saying we don't actually know to that level of precision.
I'm assuming its the YouTube Dislike Extension, which uses the like/dislike ratio of extension users to estimate what the actual like/dislike ratio is (although I've heard it's not accurate).

Taylor Swift can be the kingmaker in the upcoming US election if she wants to be. Also, Asian countries are trying to get her to hold concerts in their countries and it becomes kind of a diplomatic drama.
In terms of celebrity status, she is basically the goddess-empress. If you still don't understand how come she can add 500+ million. Well, I gotta say...
Her concert movie, which actually starred her beyond just a cameo, made $170m with $25 tickets
So...Why do you expect a cameo of her in standardly-priced DP3 to add $500m+ to it's Box Office?

Garfield will play like a mini-Illumination movie, thinking Grinch numbers

Despicable Me 4 is probably Hollywood’s only chance at passing 5B this year, and it might not do so seeing as Rise of Gru couldn’t pass it
Possibly a longshot but maybe Moana 2 could do it. Hopefully something surprises.

Apparently the trailer not being 10 straight hours of characters singing and dancing instantly means the studio is “hiding” the music in the film.

QuoteA24‘s Alex Garland political thriller, Civil War, is off to a solid start with $2.9M in Thursday previews, the movie on its way to $20M+ opening. Nobody, rivals nor A24 are complaining about that for what is the studio’s priciest pic — under $60M before P&A.
Critics are good with the Kirsten Dunst, Nick Offerman, and Cailee Spaeny movie at 83% on Rotten Tomatoes and audiences at 86%.

I don't see how dumb fun sequel to such a beloved movie is fine, it's gonna flop even harder if it's as mediocre as Napoleon.
Ridley will be fine
He has produced mostly flops in the last decade, yet still gets $150m-$200m budgets handed to a silver platter, because he's Ridley Scott. Even if this a panned flop I don't see why that wouldn't continue.

Lady Gaga only making $12m for one movie is the civil rights issue of our time.

Attaching with Furiosa probably makes more sense

Well under, trailer views are not even close to DP3, plus Joker skews much more OS than the Deadpool movies.
DP3 trailer views are inflated by the Super Bowl. Whereas J2 is deflated by releasing a teaser earlier in the day.
Anyways, trailer views are irrelevant to box office. Transformers ROTB had some of the highest trailer views of all time.
Joker 2 has a decent shot at outgrossing DP3 domestically IMO. Even with the OS skew, Joker still outgrossed DP2. I think both will see good increases.

We still have no idea how much music is in the movie. So it isn’t fair to complain about how little music there is in a 30 second teaser.

Considering the track record that DC movies tend to have in Japan, it might as well be considered a huge hit.
Anyway, if hiding the musical aspect backfired on the Mean Girls remake, I imagine it would backfire especially bad here.
It didn't have an impact. 75% of viewers knew it was a musical.
I don't know why this forum expects trailers for musicals to be blasting the music 24/7.

That was a teaser, no?

Production Weeklys history on this is...not consistent this far out, but they're claiming the X-Men reboot is scheduled to shoot in late 2025. Also Armor Wars in 2025, Shang-Chi 2 in March 2025, and Vision Quest filming this year.
IF this is accurate (and with PWs history with stuff this far out, that's a not small if) that'd indicate what a lot of people have guessed which is that the Avengers movies get bumped a year each.
Good. A near decade between Avengers movies would pent up demand. My only hope is that these movies actually lead into Avengers and make the MCU feel like an actual interconnected universe, rather than a haphazard mish-mash of unrelated plotlines like it does right now.

so happy studios aren’t listening to the whining online complaints about movies being “too long”
Agreed. Movies haven't gotten longer, attention spans have just gotten shorter.
