I worry that the reshoots of mom have been done to make the story more simplified and less convoluted a lot of the planned cameos from other universes I bet have been cut

I don't think so. If anything, KC Walsh, the man who correctly reported Doc Ock coming back in No Way Home before any of the trades did, says Feige is satisfied with what Sam Raimi has made so far and the 6 weeks of filming were done to complete 2 weeks of filming that couldn't be done when filming in London and the other four weeks are to add a couple more characters into the Illuminati and improve some story elements like allegedly the performance of Xochitl Gomez as America Chavez.

I have to feel any and all momentum this might have had from NWH is gonna be gone by April. 
 

Also releasing it on 4/1 seems a little on the nose.

I guess they're hoping the Omicron burn rate will have cases down to a "minimum" by then? Maybe under 30K a day? I don't think it effects the box office one way or another. My OW and DOM estimates remain the same no matter when it releases this year. 

[Legion Again]

NWH feb top 5 prospects increasing every second…

[SpiderByte]

Yeah, this movies best hope was riding No Way Home to maybe around 30 mil OW. Now it's going to be run over by Batman and Sonic 2.

morbiusheads we got too cocky!

[Eric the Fall Guy]

Hollywood just hates movie theaters. What is wrong with the drinking water over there?

[Menor the Destroyer]

Nvm. I mixed up Batman's release date.

 

Still, a stupid move.

Lol. This should help No Way Home's legs I guess? 

 

Dumb move. It probably would've made more money in its original spot. Now it's gonna drop hard weekend 2 and 3 with Sonic and Fantastic Beasts.

From an empty field to one week after the Batman? Idiotic move. 

 

Did the Batman move? Isn't it March 4th?

See edit. I think I confused it with the old Doctor Strange release date. 

[XXR vs XXR]

My prediction for Morbius was $38M OW and $96M DOM at its January date. With this move, I'll drop that down to $28M and $73M.

This movie is following New Mutants lead.

[infamous5445]

Is it because of Covid or something else?

[CoolioD1]

The April 1st release date is the final stage of an elaborate April Fool's joke by Jared Leto. Both the film and the reason for its delays (SARS-CoV-2).
