the monday thread will be veryyyy interesting

[Hatebox]

I completely disagree that JW had more pre-release online hype than TA. TA was fucking everywhere. The hype was real. JW was lower which is why its success is strange.

 

It's not really worth debating as 'online buzz' is unquantifiable, so I'll simply say I think TA and JW's levels were about even. JW had a massive presence online. Trailer views were insanely high. People acting like TA's OW didn't come out of nowhere are being a tad revisionist.

I see panic after a -63% drop(When it's actually a normal drop, but doesn't appear that way because of the Sunday inflation.)

The only thing JW had was high trailer views. TA had trailer views, fanart being drawn before the movie came out, theories, people dressing up as the characters, its previous movies with after-credit scenes and so on.

TA was expected to do well. The 200m+ was the pleasant surprise.

Two things that clearly drove it's success

The Monday drop is gonna be big. I am expecting a 65-66% drop.

I know, right? What the... Remember all of the people that dressed as Leo and Kate when Titanic released? Oh, wait, neither do I.

Didn't do the calculations, but I expect about 40% drop Monday to Monday. So, what's that? $15M or so?

All I keep seeing right now is a vision of the future... 2018/2019... Jurassic World 2... so much disappointment... 

 

But we're here. And now? Everything is awesome.

That would be pretty good coming from a $38m Sunday.

It will then have a very nice Tuesday increase at least.

TA certainly had the superhero element already going for it, but let's not forget JW's countless product tie-ins, high profile TV commercials, gender think-pieces, a Lego video game etc etc. All part of the plan.

 

It's not to take away from either movie. Uni marketed the hell out of JW and it worked gangbusters.

They show that people are excited for it. It was the same for HP.

True JW had incredible marketing. But TA had the bigger online buzz. Both films are successful.
