  1. Saw Birds Of Prey last night. It was actually a really good movie! 

     

    The Invisible Man’s debut is so far an excellent start! While it won’t be like the leggy sensation of Get Out, Universal and Blumhouse should be quite thrilled with the result as Universal has had so far only one major hit prior to Invisible Man. Opening weekend comparisons are tough to compare, same with domestic total but I’m gonna say $70-$80 million domestic wouldn’t be surprising. 
     

    Sonic is doing quite solid for Paramount. Holds are so far excellent. $165 million domestic will definitely happen for this!

     

    Call Of The Wild holding alright. But if the film had a $50-$60 million budget I would say this would’ve been a modest to decent hit, but $125 million or so budget was ridiculous. $65-$70 million is it’s target.

  3. It seems like 2020 box office so far is having mostly luck with delayed films like what 2015 had at their slate at the beginning of that year.
     

    Fifty Shades Of Grey, Kingsman 1, and even I think Spongedumbass 2 was delayed even! While yeah Jupiter Ascending was a major bomb and so was Dooless.

     

    But who would’ve thought at the beginning of 2020, 90’s nostalgia would be making most of the money! Bad Boys For Life may outgross the adjusted total of Bad Boys II($209.3 million).
     

    Sonic also now becoming the best debut for a video game adaptation! Also becoming the best debut for Paramount since Mission Impossible: Fallout! Sonic’s domestic total I won’t project yet.

     

    Harley Quinn still in limbo but President’s Day and Valentine’s Day I figured would give her a boost. $100 million total is out of question for sure, $90 million isn’t out of question still... hopefully overseas would save it but it’s hard to tell for right now. 
     

    Not bad starts for both Photograph and Fantasy Island, both moderate budgets and should be both small successes. 

  4. Eh this looks like the biggest highlight this week thus far is Parasite! Also another thing people forgot to mention here this weekend was that Uncut Gems is now the highest grossing A24 domestic release!

     

    Both Gems and Parasite will be in a year that they will outgross the domestic totals of Seth Rogen, Anne Hathaway, Rebel Wilson, and Liam Neeson led films!  Also both films outgrossed Cats! 

  5. It’s insane to look at how much last Sunday impacted the box office with Super Bowl just about half of the holdovers this Sunday increased!
     

    Also neat to see the Award Nominated films this year make over $30 million! Parasite will make over $40-$45 million or so. Knives Out close to $160 million and still hanging on to the top 10! Little Women well past $100 million. 
     

    Bad Boys For Life still our crazy box office success story of the year! However, it’s a shame that Harley Quinn isn’t doing so well. WB has been kind of shaky for the past few months. 

     

    the R rating wasn’t a problem for Harley Quinn Just the fact that people walked out of Suicide Squad pissed. Now if this was a spin-off to Joker yeah I could see this be like an Alice 1 to Alice 2 drop off. But probably $85-$90 million doesn’t seem surprising for Harley 

  6. Invisible Man could perform like Us then in a few more weeks then if this is how February is turning out.


    Harley Quinn id check out but maybe not for $20, dvd or blu $13-$15 or wait till eBay, they have new releases $10 or so. Stinks it will probably miss $100 million, but remember WB has done it before with Rampage or Edge Of Tomorrow or even Pacific Rim! 

     

    Sonic I think will probably perform like maybe Ninja Turtles 2014, but I have a feeling $45-$49 million 3-day will probably be it’s best bet! 
     

    Fantasy Island with the lack of horror films, it’s appeal should bring it to $13-$15 million 3-day next weekend. Yeah it’s a PG-13 horror film but it’s concept could bring in an audience.

     

    March is gonna rely on three titles sadly. Onward should do $60-$70 million opening weekend. Then Quiet Place 2 will probably debut on-par with it’s predecessor, similar to what The Conjuring 2 did with The Conjuring 1.
     

    Mulan is the biggest gamble next month, it could do similar to Cinderella or Oz or it could explode like Beauty & The Beast. But it could also perform like Dumbo. But Disney never fails at the box office, hell their lowest earning major title made $113 million! 
     

    for the projection of 2nd quarter I”ll wait till Mulan comes out. 

  7. Birds Of Prey is an R rated comic book movie with a female supervillain as our antihero lead, that’s a tough sell on its own.


    Plus too this was going to do Wolverine 2013 level at best. WB shouldn’t be crying and we shouldn’t be crying. Harley Quinn will be a profitable success as it will probably come close to $50 million if not over $50 million. Gross $130-$140 million domestic with a decent pull out international with Margot being the appeal.

     

    random but since we are mentioning R rated comic book movies with a female lead closest female is Barb Wire with Pamela Anderson as that was based on a Dark Horse story.

  8. Bad Boys leading strong this weekend! For a fifth weekend in a row this weekend is up by a decent margin from last year. 
     

    Bad Boys For Life will remain as thus far already  one of the major success stories of 2020! And already while January’s grosses won’t ever replicate 2010’s record, Bad Boys could be the first $200 million film of 2020 and a domestic milestone for the month of January!


    Other holdovers fared well. Not much else to say. New releases Gretel & Hansel did meh I think it did less than the opening day of Hansel Gretel: Witch Hunters! Rhythm Section looked like death from the start, Blake Lively can sell certain Mid-Range projects like The Shallows or A Simple Favor for example, but this just smelled flop all over it. 

  9. Really for a dead Super Bowl weekend this could’ve been much worse.


    Interesting that Gitesh noted that Warm Bodies was the last super bowl release to be #1. I actually remembered that debut when Mojo projected $13 million opening for it and it surprised with $20 million opening. That was also later on in the year considered one of the year’s sleeper hits.

     

    Speaking of sleeper hits, it feels odd that I remember Chronicle breaking out. Wow... how crazy the super bowl has changed, we went from Sony being number one on the super bowl with new releases to surprises like Chronicle, Warm Bodies, Taken, Dear John, and Hannah Montana to now the delayed studio graveyard. 

  10. Saw this a week ago! Not as good as Bad Boys II. But I still really enjoyed this one! The action was good especially the biker scene or the final showdown. I also kinda like the father son aspect near the end and how this one made Will Smith’s character more adult and responsible this time around. Definitely one id add to my dvd/Blu-ray collection when it hits!

    grade: B
