Disney shorts-now that's interesting. Always thought Pixar doing shorts before their feature film was great. The overall idea, interesting, have to wonder if this is Disney trying to somehow build up again the theatre "experience" with previous films. 

 

I wonder if they are a little worried that (to their estimations) people aren't flocking back to theatres fast enough or in the numbers they would like. I ALSO wonder if this has something to do with when they were renewing their theatre agreements early covid, and when the idea of streaming same day came about. Theatres were rather vocal about it, and wonder if this was part of their agreement to be doing these sorts of things.

It's just Disney doing a little something to celebrate the two year anniversary of D+. FWIW AMC owns the big Disney Springs theater, which is likely why they're doing this there and nowhere else.

 

Although they did have something with Cinemark not too long ago called Disney Screen (which lasted from July 2015 to December 2016 where each week four Disney movies, from classics to forgotten titles, came back to select theaters for one showing a day with the list of movies rotating depending on the theme of the week). Surprised they don't do this at the Disney Springs AMC. No better place to see a Disney movie than on Disney property.

I've said it and I'll keep saying it, but they cracked the code on Ghostbusters with Afterlife.  It's not perfect, but it doesn't have to be.

 

It's funny, a lot of fun and the WOM is going to be great.  


I feel like it’ll be a good time but it looks like a family film and I just don’t think the babies care about Ghostbusters.

Clifford the Big Red Dog Greater Philadelphia Area Seat Report T-1 (Tue+Wed)

  Sellouts Showings Seats Sold Total Seats Perct Sold
TOTALS 0 111 406 18261 2.22%

 

I know that Paramount in their jackassery will combine the Early Access Tuesday box office with the Wednesday "true opening day", so because I hate myself, I looked at both. Anyways...comps.

 

Comp

0.509x of Cruella Thu+Fri T-1 (3.92M)

1.381x of Spirit Untamed Thu+Fri T-1 (3.39M)

 

I mean...I guess that's okay. I know it's over two days, but Tuesday shows are discounted at like 5 bucks at certain theaters, so it cancels out with the 7PM previews the two comps got? Who cares?

That’s not entirely accurate…..

Spoiler

The Pixar is more likely to be Monsters Inc., same runtime and there’s a Disney+ show to cross promote.

 

The animated one is definitely not Frozen 2, runtime is off, it’s more likely to be Raya or Ralph 2.

 

and the live action one COULD be Alice, but with the whole Johnny Depp thing right now, it wouldn’t make as much sense to show that one, when there is another PG live action Disney with the exact same runtime, and a Disney+ sequel in development.

 

I’m reasonably certain it’s The Rocketeer.

There’s about 200 theaters doing the D+ screenings this weekend.

 

and I loved Disney Screen, even if the screening order was a little weird sometimes, I went the week they were showing Tron and Tron Legacy, and they showed Bridge to Terebithia in between, which made no sense.
