At that SM drop, is it too late to bring back Andrew Garfield?

 

If he stayed we would be talking about a $150m total

Definitely a disappointing number for Apes, but it's somewhat understandable. Still, all the movies I'm stanning for this summer are disappointing (except WW and GotG 2 which only disappointed overseas). Hopefully Dunkirk changes that, but I'm not optimistic.

Spider-Man's drop is big but not completely unexpected, imo. Marvel is frontloaded and fans will still show up in droves for the next one.

I agree, a casual moviegoer could have easily thoght that it was basically Dawn again.

So, lesson to Fox's marketing,

 

Wrong assumption, their assumption of the good will from Dawn could lasted fresh for 3 years and make people eagerly wanting to see them again, proved wrong, good will from Dawn has diminished into ash after so many blockbuster franchise come into marketplace in just 3 years......

 

Being too dependent on RT score, after riding of the success of logan/deadpool

 

Last, so many RT-certified highly recommended movie(90%+) come into marketplace in July, BD, BS, SMH, and supposed masterpiece of Dunkirk.....making high RT score for Apes be unattractive.....

I don't think War could've been turned into a ROTK or TDK style phenomenon. The Apes franchise's appeal is limited and there's no way around it.

Yeah. ASM3 with Garfield was a 150 dom + 400 os = 550 ww film at best. And another 200-250 prod budget like ASM2. Not to mention no future for the franchise, unlike right now.

FWIW, if War got mediocre reviews I still think it would've dropped even more.

Movies that do really well on Rotten Tomatoes overperform at the box office.

[Chaz]

I can't wait to get that War steelbook 4K BD to match Rise and Dawn. 

[YM!]

So can Homecoming reach $300M?

If you get good reviews on RT, you breakout, if your reviews are shit, You underperform or flop.
