    Look at this picture

    For many of the countries, the total box office is the same as the opening weekend and the last reported date is all the way back on 5th june, aka, the opening week. ATSV has already crossed the 700M mark, we just didn't know it!

    Nah, Sony just reports totals and some top countries. See the rest of the world on the table, it has the extra which sony doesn't specify. It's like this for pretty much any movie.

    I don’t know if I was right or wrong but as far as I know India culture not very friendly to women but Barbie performance in India is not that bad,so the culture is not a super problem

    While it has its problems, having lived there, India is nowhere near as bad as the others mentioned for women, atleast in places with larger population.

    Kris Anka, comic book artist extraordinaire turned conceptual artist extraordinaire and responsible for the look of most of the Spider-Men characters in the film liked this lol. The animators that work their ass off giving us these two absolute masterpieces are happy that they will have time to deliver us greatness, so I’m happy for them as well.

    I want this to go down as an all-time trilogy with 3 straight bangers and potentially the goat cbm trilogy. I don't care how much time they take, I just hope they take their time to make it perfect in great working conditions

    Beyond the Spider-Verse could be a November release.

     

    I think the "It's moving to 2027 because one animator said so!!!" comments are overblown and ridiculous.

     

    Odds are Sony just crunches the animators, which is unfortunate but I doubt anything changes.

     

    That said, I think a billion is on the table.

    ah a fellow across the billi-verse believer

    Just saw some super early estimates for Friday but I'm a little skeptical about at least one of them and don't wanna cause commotion if it ends up too high.

     

    ...that said, 70+ (with previews) for one of them. 👀

     

    I imagine Deadline will have them up shortly.

    170-180M+ if thats the case

    My audience fucking loved it so much. Half the theatre (including me lol) wore pink. Most people were under 21 and a lot under 18 too. Cheers at literally every line. felt like I was in the No Way Home movie theatre lol. One of the most fun theatre experiences I've ever had since it felt so collective and that was so great for me.

     

    I liked the movie a lot, the comedy is fucking great, everyone was laughing really hard, and while I think some narrative stuff in the second half doesn't work, it was so so fun!!

    Oppenheimer

    DOLBY

    -> 100% sold out; 60/40 Male/Female. about 50%~ of the audience was under 21 here too (it's not R rated in my country). Huge groups, but less so than barbie.

     

    Trailers:
    Dune 2

    Napoleon

    (I couldn't recognize one and missed the title)

     

    Some cheers at some of the really cool moments — 'i am become' line, RDJ and Cilian intros, Einstein lol, the trinity test after the sound came in (a collective holy fucking shit moment from the audience, felt like we were on an amusement park ride), Emily blunt's speech, the last line of the movie. As mentioned for Barbie, about a fifth of the audience was the same (Barbie was at 4:10 and Opp at 6:50 on the same screen).

    Barbie 
    DOLBY
    -> 100% sold out; 66/33 female/male split. 2/3rd of the people, including our group, were 13-22~. Lots of HUGE groups, like 7+. 

     

    Trailers:

    Wonka (huge reaction)
    Dune 2 (huge reaction)
    Meg 2

     

    Audience was really really really into it, cheers for almost every line, legit applause after America Ferrerra's speech at the end. Some guys were pissed and loudly voiced how they hate the 'SJW speeches' and were met by boos from the whole theatre lol. legit 50%~ of the theatre was wearing pink or barbie themed clothing. saw a lot of 'Barbenheimer' shirts too, about 20% of the same audience stayed for Oppenheimer (same screen). Very very fun as a crowd experience!

    Oppenheimer | 2024 Academy Award Winner for Best Picture and Best Director

    in Box Office Discussion

    Posted

    Watched it for the second time and gather my final thoughts:

    My only complaints are in the scenes from after the starting sequence till Los Alamos (40 mins~), and how it feels like an acted montage of Oppenheimer's life prior. Not a deal breaker however at all given how good the rest is.

     

    Other than that I loved every bit of the movie. Florence Pugh's character is a bit underdeveloped despite being very well acted but every other character, across the board, was very good and acted excellently — Damon, Blunt, Cilian and RDJ. Blunt particularly stole the scene entirely in a particular sequence.

     

    One of the best sound designs I've ever witnessed in a theatre. it literally felt like I was there (also, no issues with mixing here). The visualizations of the scientific concepts were brilliant too.

     

    It also depicted American governmental sentiment at the time with the Red Scare stuff and the political landscape it painted. I also loved how it ended. 

     

    A middling first act followed by 2 absolutely sublime acts and multiple excellent sequences.

    A- (4/5)
