Barbie and Oppenheimer's promos are basically done because of the Strike. The only additional bumps will be from reviews.

Nolan is at the stage where he can choose to make whatever movie he wants. He has made plenty of blockbusters so there's nothing wrong with him wanting to do a less mainstream movie.
What they're saying is that they don't see why he needed to release as a part of the "summer blockbuster" season. I don't think there's any specific reason tbh they just released it to maybe reach as much of an audience as possible, especially since it's already kneecapped being a 3-hour R-rated movie about a character study on a person who made a bomb.

Last Friday Opp (14K OD PS) vs MI (28K OD PS) ~ MI (T-5) (WED OD)
Now WED Opp (42K OD PS) vs MI (125K OD PS)
I am seeing Opp as very strong PIC Pre-Sales. I did ask a local trader they says it's a Nolan boys thing not gonna be equivalent to Mission Impossible. +PS is open only for IMAX (Are you sure?)
Wonder where OD PIC Finalised..
Oooh makes sense, MI is way more general audience

Any indication on Oppenheimer? In Hyderabad, almost everything is selling out immediately, 4 Shows at our largest theatre with 650~ people each have already sold out here. But I don't know if it's because of a low screen count thus far, concentrated in metros, or just flat out high demand.
It also has 45%~ more likes/'I'm Interested' on BMS than MI7 (230k vs 150k) even though it's 9 days behind but I don't know if that's just Nolan fans or general audience.

Is Oppenheimer's ATP gonna be one of the highest ever for a wide release considering inflation and heavy PLFs?

Basically, yes (though not this crazy). Think back to all of the Twilight or Hunger Games films, but a more recent example is Don't Worry Darling (71% F per Deadline), which had a lot of presales but then petered out at the end. Keeping in mind that individuals are more nuanced than boxes checked, various demo groups generally buy tickets at different times in the sales window
- Older before younger
- Women before men
- White before non-white
- Big city before rural/casual
Roll it all up together, wind up with something like Downtown Abbey (older, white, female) with high presales/low walk-ups on one end, and Minions (younger, diverse, broad appealing) blowing up at the last minute on the other. Wherever a film's audience composition lies along those varies axes is how we should expect it to perform in final week/days vs the presales that came before it (as well as IM and Multi from those early grosses), then also factor in IP/brand recognition.
Problem is, while we often basically know what an audience will look like - say a franchise like MI7 or Fast X - and its easy to comp, sometimes its not quite as clear. Barbie will certainly skew towards younger and middle aged women, but how diverse and how much it appeals to casual viewers isn't quite clear. So don't know if current sales represent 35% of the total (so 3x from here), or 20% (so 5x), and that leaves a big range on final outcome (though some indicators are looking good, that film is moving into full breakout territory, reaching everyone)
Really? Older before younger? I did not expect that. I thought it'd be older people who end up doing walk-ups

The Dark Knight Rises has its fair shair of flaws, but its still a very good Batman film - and miles ahead of pretty much every CBM of the last 5 years.
Interstellar is literally a modern sci-fi classic for most people. Personally, i dont like the third act (the whole love thing is just too cliche and stupid for a movie that prouds itself with beeing so scientific), but the first two acts are Nolan peak.
Dunkirk is one of the best war movies ever made.
Tenet is indeed a dud, i didnt like that movie.
So i disagree, with the exception of Tenet, Nolan has made quite an impressive bunch of movies since Inception.
I'm not a huge fan of Nolan outside of Memento, Interstellar and The Dark Knight. However, the former two are genuinely two of the best movies I have ever seen and Interstellar is one of my favorite movies ever. So I will always give the movies a chance to maybe experience something like those again even if there are what I think are duds in between.

I'm not exactly sure which part of the total seats in the comp table you are referring to, sorry.
Are you talking about the total number of seats that Barbie has right now, or some other movie in the comp block?
For all the movies in the comp block, are the 'total seats' on the column next to sellout shows referring to the seats available at T-9 or what they were by T-0?

74 fewer seats sold than yesterday??!? <@.@>. !!!!
I just noticed the total seats are so much lower. 15.5k on Thurs. Are the total seats in the comp table at the end of presales or at T-9?

I agree. This movie lives and dies by Timothee.

Please the dates of both movies were decided a lot of time ago, all the time to postpone Oppenheimer date of 1 or 2 weeks with any excuse about technical issues or whatever. Next weeks basically have no big releases so any problems for heavy competition.
Nolan "i usually don't like like musicals" Is the average man who thought "Who Is gonna watch Barbie?". A big "out!" on the "Barbie over 100M OW club" 🤭
Nolan's issue isn't with Barbie, it's because WB and him have a huge feud. They forcibly released Tenet on HBO Max without his permission on the day of release.
He loves Greta Gerwig. Him and greta on a panel talking about each other:-

Nothing confirmed but I wouldn't be shocked if it's by the end of the year. GKids is going to want it out to compete for the Oscars.
Or will they push it to just after the deadline so it's basically guaranteed the Oscar next season since Beyond the Spider-verse is 100% getting delayed🤔
-
I think the reception confirms what I thought though, the people who love this movie are gonna love it wholly i.e. it has an in-built audience that'll bat for it and that helps rewatch too, while the people who don't like campy stuff won't appreciate it as much.

まっさらな状態で映画を観て欲しいという思いから、今回、宣伝をほぼせず、情報もほとんど出さないできました。皆様、「君たちはどう生きるか」を、ぜひ劇場でご覧下さい。
Because I want people to watch the movie in a brand new state, I have done almost no publicity this time, and I have been able to release almost no information. Ladies and Gentlemen, please take a look at "How Do You Live?" at the theater.

I've heard incredible things about Talk to Me, I hope it does decent at least.

So many five stars on letterboxd. I don't think we'll get an honest reaction until the reviews
Spider-verse had similar reception after its premiere and its still #9 all-time even after the algorithm change. I'm not saying it'll be that high but I think it should be good for 4+.

It was almost certainly referring to Billie, PopBase also got the quote completely wrong, it wasn't referring to the last artist at all, much less after her announcement.
Mark Ronson who is curating the music for the movie basically alluded to it in the same interview that the quote is from since the interviewer directly follows up by asking about Billie, and Billie posted the quote on her Instagram story. The personal tie is also the stuff she posted on her story having grown up with Barbie and it affecting her deeply.Actual quote (before Billie was announced):
Billie posted this in her announcement:As I expected, those pages on Twitter just took it way out of context but that's what these 'pop culture' pages do — take a narrative and run with it ^

It has been said a lot already of course, but damn horror movies are just such a safe and profitable investment.
If the FNAF movie wasn't day-and-date it could have genuinely been a breakout

Should be good for 300m+ OS.
It's locked in the next 3 weeks (probably 2). unless it drops like 60% and gets pulled in 3 weeks ofc lol.
Even if almost doubles its drops, it'll still get to 300m in 3 weeks.

that is true, spider-verse went from looking like maybe 100M~ to 120M+ because of a gigantic bump right before release
