Now that the prime "First week of August" spot is available, I think it will get filled soon. Valerian might move (not that it will help the movie, but can't hurt). Or WB might want to put Wonder Woman there as the last big movie of summer similar to SS. Doubt if the date stays empty too long, an open release corridor is too much to resist.

I did not realize these movies were on the same date. I wonder what led Fox to move it to such an occupied date? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Diary of a Wimpy Kid is also Fox so that's definitely moving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 They will all (except for the Nut Job) move for Ridley Scott. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annabelle can move a week up. The Nut Job 2 will destroy everything. Pirates 5 will be hurt the most. Instead of being the first big movie since GOTG2, it just got overshadowed.

Cmasterclay Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Hot take: I don't think this is the big hit people are expecting it to be either critically and commercially, so other movies clearing out for it in a crowded summer would be silly. Life should move though, that's too much overlap. And A2 should maybe shift back a week and replace it over Memorial Day as counterprogramming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Sony should move Life to June. WB should move Annabelle 2 to July 21 and Dunkirk to August 4. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will be a huge hit either, but it is good for a 60-70M OW IMO. That itself means other movies will be affected, especially with screen space being a premium during summer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Baywatch should move back to Memorial Day weekend instead of Annabelle 2. Could easily coexist with Pirates of the Caribbean 5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmasterclay Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I heard from someone I follow on this board, @antovolk I think (sorry if it isn't you!), that this had started screening and apparently reception was not very good at all.
