The pressure for Aquaman to do good just got 1000 times WORSE!

I feel bad for Jason Momoa.

The song - 

"Everybody knows"...

is also on a lot of people's playlist.

Yeah if there's one thing these movies get right, it's the soundtrack (except the forced choices in SS). I liked the song a lot and believe that's another cover....which makes 3 that JL has utilized in the promotional material and film itself.

But now you have Wonder too and that's not going to be something that families rush out and see. It will spread by WOM which seems to be very good right now. So that's 3 movies. 

And if Coco has great rewatchability (and the songs are good), I could see that being a problem too. 

And yeah, they can all co exist but I see JL being the one that takes the greatest hit. 

Fair yea, Wonder is gonna be more of an issue than anyone was expecting for sure.

 

For the 3-day next weekend I could see

 

Coco - $55M

JL - $40M

Wonder - $22M

Well, it started off so low that the chance for “decent” legs of 2.4-2.5x might be possible? 

I would say this ,At least it’s twitter Ratio is 8:1.

I remember BVS being something like a 2:1.

That sounds about right unless Coco has this big break out but I haven't seen it promoted that heavily....the reviews will definitely help though and it's got the perfect release date as for families. The subject matter is what could hurt it though. That seems like it would have worked more around Halloween.

WW had girl power behind it. 

Aquaman will have toxic masculinity. 

 

 

Besides, I don't see anyone paying tickets to see discount Kevin Smith swimming. 

If you don't have a real response please don't respond to me.

The only place it's doing really good is I think in Brazil and India. 

lol No.

[Zakiyyah6]

Justice League doing well in little markets is not going to save it. Justice League had to do well everywhere and it's not.

I should go to sleep but I'm enthralled, this is maybe the biggest BO fiasco we'll ever see

Over/Under Thor: The Dark World?

 

Ok, I kid I kid.

 

Enthralled indeed though lol. I’m really curious about the studio report and possible spins that’s coming now.

Thats what I was going by but I don't know about India.

DC's already been down this road once before.  Batman Forever and Batman & Robin were not very well liked at all.  They recovered eventually and The Dark Knight trilogy was a legendary run. They will get it together but this was a tough loss for them to take. There won't be another Justice League movie for years to come.  Maybe a decade.

The most disappointing thing this weekend is Justice League may bring Thor 3 below a 300m domestic finish. That would suck.

The movie has done very well considering the previous iterations. Everything it is making now is just gravy.

Guys, could you imagine the world we would be living in... the numbers we would be seeing... the state of this weekend thread if

 

 

  Reveal hidden contents

Batman v Superman was good.

  Hide contents

Like, Avengers level good

 

 

On the Earth where that happened, BvS was like the 12th movie of the DCU.

 

Also, people are wondering why some guy in a flag is trying to beat up Tony Stark, and who the hell is Bucky? in the MCEUs 2nd film, Civil War.

I would go higher for Coco, but the marketing honestly hasn't been up to Disney's standard. I would say that people would just show up for it anyways, but looks what's happening to justice League (and as I've outlined in a few posts I think the terrible marketing has had something to do with it).

[Zakiyyah6]

They don't know how to make a good Justice League movie so I don't care if it takes a decade.

[Mojoguy]

I feel bad for James Wan.

Wan will be fine, he has the Conjuring franchise.

It's Momoa I'm worried about. Jason seems to generally be excited about getting the Aquaman role. I imagine he is hoping it will help him break out too.

I'm pretty terrible at weekday numbers. Same with 5-day thanksgivings. I'm Canadian so I don't even think of it as a long weekend so I always get surprised by numbers
