It weird how similar the Transformers and the Pirates franchise are right now.

 

- Both are on their 5th movie of the series.

 

- Both have been experiencing diminishing returns domestically the last couple of movies.

 

- Both are based on entertainment for mostly children.

 

- Both peaked critically with the first movie in the series.

 

- Both make around one billion consistently regardless of quality.

 

and I probably missed several other similarities.

Oh, please. You know very well that BatB is a mammoth hit because of perfect blend of actress and character. That's the secret of big boxoffice stars - pick as many roles that audience wants to see you in. 

 

Circle wasn't even advertised much so putting the blame on Emma or using it as a proof that her casting in BatB had nothing to do with BatB success doesn't hold. 

It would have done well with anyone in the role. Watson was just lucky.

Pirates? I think it will get really close to a billion. There is good feeling about this one.

I wish it could recapture that "Now, bring me that horizon" moment from the first movie..

sooooo many CBMs. when will the bubble burst?

I think when people find a new trending genre that's worthy to replace it. Til then, Disney and WB are gonna keep shoving CBM down our throats.

The operative word is 'worthy'. Those movies don't stand a chance against Julia Robert's 90s romcoms. [emoji16]

Maybe WAR films again or something. Or do we have another giant ship in the 1910s that sank. Just something different. I don't care if it's remake, reboot, revived or something totally new. Futuristic robotic semirealistic advance tech human something perhaps. Just different.

I don't know, you tell me.

Just found out Alien is not in 3D! Bad decision overseas

[James]

You can mark my words: Pirates will make around 600m from US+China+Japan alone. 400m from the rest of the world won't be that hard. Also, we've got to a point where global audiences dictate the taste. Just look at FF, TF, even HP/Fantastic Beasts. Nowadays, unless we talk SW, there is no other franchise that can survive without OS grosses. I think we should try to compare declining between movies from a WW perspective. Overall, the huge chunk of money coming from OS will render a DOM underperformance irrelevant anyway.

 

Speaking of, I am really curious about what SW8 will make seeing how that first teaser/trailer pretty much failed to attract much attention. I mean, it will definitely win the year WW, but I am thinking a big drop from SW7 is in store. Maybe smth like 1.3B WW.

 

And regarding GotG, someone was saying 900-950m WW. Just how? At this point even 850m is difficult.

I don't recall that the General consensus here for GV2 final is $800M-$825M WW.

Does anyone know anything about this??? Just got this email for an advanced screening on Saturday

 

Invites you and your guest to a private screening
of the upcoming feature film:

Karate Kid 2

Saturday, May 20, 2017

Showtime is 2:00 PM (Please check-in by 1:00 PM)

Regal Edwards Long Beach Stadium 26

Age group: 13 to 49 years old 
(Adults of any age bringing 13-16 year olds are welcome)

 

The sequel to the 2010 film, finds DRE (Jaden Smith) and his mother returning to the States, so he can pursue a pre-med education at USC.

That is, until HAN (Jackie Chan) shows up to remind Dre where he comes from and how to get back on the right path.
 

The movie has not yet been rated but will likely be rated ‘PG.’ The studio cannot, of course, guarantee the rating that the film will ultimately receive

Guessing Sony is doing a DTV sequel. If not this could be coming out 2018/2019.
