But I'm not too certain on the breakdown on how far down F8 is compared to say F7, and whether other territories are making up for it Oh shit. sorry. yeah I don't see 1b OS either. 875-925 probably. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KP1025 Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 I also think it could fall under $1 billion OS despite such a big opening. OS-China opening is slightly lower than F7, and I think it will have shorter legs because of GotG 2 cutting into its run earlier than AoU with F7.

A marketing slaughtering juggernaut actually works better for holdovers than a movie which performs fine but not on a giant breakout level. Big breakouts lead to plenty of spillover sellouts and holdovers benefiting. When TDK, Avengers, JW, TFA or even BATB opened, the holdovers all fell between 40-55% showing the advantage of a breakout boosting the holdovers. Compare to something that opens around expected marks, let's take Fantastic Beasts which opened around the 75-80M range everyone expected, it hogs screens, does not bring extra traffic in and lead to mega sellouts and spillovers, causes movies to fall 50-65% because of lost screenspace. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Beezy Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) Spoiler An article discussing Deckard's redemption arc. http://www.thewrap.com/fitting-jason-statham-join-fast-family-fate-furious-commentary/ Quote Dom knows as well as anyone that what you’ve done in the past doesn’t have to define who you are in the future. You can be better. And being part of the family can make you better than better, because together they become so much more.

Spoiler They bring up how Dom himself was a reprehensible human once in his life so perhaps the next movie will show Deckard not out of the hen house just yet. Thing is Dom's POV of Deckard is different from the the rest of the team because he's on Cipher's side for the time being. Essentially why he goes to meet Deckard's mom and talked to her about how they're both unable to see their sons. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikasa Ackerman Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Just saw it, it was okay. About what I expected. Current rankings: Fast Five The Fast And The Furious Tokyo Drift 6, 7, and 8 (they all feel like the same movie, can't really differentiate them) Fast And Furious 2 Fast 2 Furious 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still I feel like we are overthinking the whole thing; I bet they've done it just cause it would be cool as hell, it's Fast & Furious after all! And I'm fine with that. But yeah, Han deserved a bit better, at least a mention. I hope they make him mention next movie how sorry he is over the whole Han business.

Kalo Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) Wow, I saw a pretty big drop coming for this, but it couldn't even manage $100m OW. by furious 10 it could look like $130m Domestically vs $1.5b internationally. I'm trying to understand why these films are so insanely massive in international markets, I know China is a growing market, but why do they tend to flock to blockbusters, with loads of cheese and razor thin storylines? makes me worry about the future of blockbusters in general.
