Everybody is gonna automatically take 1m off that TLJ estimate right?

And that's the problem. When Disney first unveiled this annual release strategy I argued instantly that it would eventually put the franchise in danger of losing its juggernaut clout, and no one wanted to agree, saying SW would always demand a huge gross even with 10 movies in a decade. 3 movies in and the path to how that might not necessarily be the case is already clear. The franchise isn't immune to becoming "just another franchise" like many argued it was. That's why Disney needs to stand back and re-evaluate if WOM looks mixed on this and Solo disappoints. How about we get an actual hiatus after IX? 

The main reason Marvel can get away with 3 movies a year is variety.

 

So far most cinematic universes can't gain much interest let alone keep interest.

It's a non-threat that's making more than Coco  

Given that it just came out last week and Coco came out a month ago, it's certainly not making an encouraging amount of 'more' than Coco.

 

Ferdinand's numbers as a holiday release are not encouraging for its box office haul.

WTF it's barely outgrossing Rogue One's 3 day 

[eddyxx]

I'm pretty sure I said SW fatigue would happen. 3 SW films in 3 years is overkill and Solo is going to do sub 400m if it stays on that date.

 

Every time I brought up this movie people would say "Another one?"

That’s true and those industry sources for Deadline look foolish for predicting $88m on Monday.

[babz06]

PP3 hugely frontloaded. Wow.

[filmlover]

Pitch Perfect 3 is Little Fockers all over again. There's a good chance it's not gonna finish much higher than what the first made.

[PNF2187]

Damn, with the exception of Jumanji, things look kinda low for the new releases. PP3 is in free-fall right now, while TGS, Downsizing and FF look like flops right now with their insane budgets (OK, Father Figures's budget isn't massive but it doesn't look like it'll make its money back at all right now).

 

I swear TLJ's estimates keep dropping, and Coco is holding nowhere nearly as well as Moana or Tangled. If it plays out like Happy Feet from now on, it'll crawl to $200M, though hopefully it holds better in the new year. Eh, they'll still churn out sizeable profits for Disney.

 

Ferdinand's numbers are depressing since they aren't much higher than Coco which came out a month prior and is in 42% fewer theaters. Blue Sky's future does not look promising in the slightest.

Lol Coco's doing fine, especially considering its OS numbers. But this does show that Moana's performance was underrated af, especially as it had to contend with a post-SLoP Illumination musical in Sing.

It's time to bring those holdovers back!!! DH2, murder on the oriental express, wonder, even JL would made more money than those flop if they didn't loss much theater than present.

[La Binoche]

The Post is kinda underperforming isn't it? 

[The Panda]

Decent increase for Star Wars?  Not holding my breath for much right now.

Not really, Lincoln made almost $1M from 11 theaters five years ago one week ahead of its wide release. Most of the marketing muscle is going into its wide January 12 release as well.

[Killimano3]

Damn 70% drop for TLJ. I know it's Christmas and all but still that's pretty big. Gonna be up there with DH2 and New Moon and BvS

Moana faced Sing

Coco is facing... Ferdinand?
