So it's only superhero movies that are disappointing?

 

Everything is disappointing or flopping. 

I don't fatigue has anything to do with performances of Alice, Turtles Nice Guys, etc.

Alice was kinda in a bad position after the monster breakouts of Zootopia and Jungle Book.

But, it seems like coming 6 years after the 3d high was big.

Didn't Disney make 1 billion domestic in only in a record 128 days?

 

That's alot of ticket sales which doesn't include BvS or Deadpool.

 

While it's not a content fatigue there could be a spending fatigue.

The great performance of Jan-Apr clearly affects the summer season imo. The GA has been exposed to blockbuster after blockbuster to the point that the summer season doesn't seem that exciting anymore. It's like summer the whole year now.

I fully agree with this and have been saying it for quite a few weeks now.

Is it though? I'd say its a message to Fox that the movie just wasn't good enough. I managed to enjoy it, but I'm pleased it hasn't been a runaway hit as its not up to the standard it should have been. 

 

 

I share your substantive assessment of the movie.

And for those who care about reviews, seeing the reviews for these new films will turn them off more from seeing them. And yes, there are greatly-reviewed, usually "small" movies from time to time, but the GA skip them because they might be saving their money for the "next" blockbuster. "Kids, we'll not watch TURTLES today okay? We'll see DORY in a few weeks."

At some point there will be superhero fatigue but i find it quite strange that only that genre is stricken by fatigue for having its sequels going down when i have yet to see fatigue being brought up for example for other franchises going down.

 

I don't recall people talking about Bond fatigue when Spectre ended up 50% lower than Skyfall on the domestic front or about $200+M workdwide lesser than it.

 

I also never heard people saying there is a Mission Impossible fatigue though the movies have peaked in 2000 on the domestic front and have since decreased on that market each new movie in.

 

Again it seems that fatigue is only reserved for superheroe movies whose sequels go down whereas other sequels going down have nothing to do with it.

The fuck are you talking about? You are referring to franchises which have 1 movie every three or four years, not a genre that has 10+ major movies per year.

10+?

 

Deadpool, BvS, CA:CW, XM:A, Suicide Squad, Dr. Strange. Maybe TMNT.

 

7. A huge different but not 10+.

Sad weekend (past couple of weekends actually) for the movie industry.

 

But again, make shitty quality/reviewed movies (Apoc, tmnt2, BvS, Alive2, etc), get shitty box office results.  The real shame is when good quality/reviewed movies still do poorly...The Nice Guys

CIVIL WAR needs roughly 16M or so to reach 400M. I'd honestly be more than happy when it reaches that and stalls out, then hits the 2nd run theatre 2 minutes from me.. No shit.. I'm within walking distance of this theatre... You can bring your own beer in and 0 fucks are given.. I'm looking forward to it.. Sure, it's no IMAX 2D, but the screen and sound are still pretty stellar for $5.00 every day, every evening... Hell, I'm surprised in 2016, 2nd run theatres still exist in some markets??? Anyone else have a 2nd run theatre by them where movies go to die before heading off to Blu-Ray/Piracy Land???

We don't have that in Portugal.  

[a2k]

CW is looking at 7.5-7.7m weekend opposed to 8.4 of IM3. Gap will decrease by 0.7-0.9m but at least it's reasonable. Last weekend it lost 4m over 4-days. Weekdays it's been matching IM3. Has a shot at beating it imo, especially if Disney wants it to.

X-Men: Apocalypse is performing according to how the X-Franchise has always performed. WW it will be the second highest grossing X-flick (not counting Deadpool). And domestically, it will finish somewhere around First Class, the only other X-Men movie without Wolverine in a major role. It's on the lower side of expectations, but I don't see what the doom and gloom is all about. Domestically, it also had to battle negative reviews and no IMAX screens. It made no sense to me how/why so many people took it for granted that Apocalypse could beat DoFP.

 

 

the studio is definitely disappointed. Expect some shake ups for the next one.

There aren't any second run theaters by me but some movies last long enough to be considered second run (Looking at you London Has Fallen)
