jack-jack INCREDIBLES 2 Weekend |🏆| ACTUALS: 182.7M OW | O8 19M, Tag 14.9M, Solo 10M, DP2 8.7M, IW 5.4M

[Avatree]

The hook for iw2 is the cliffhanger ending of the first part. The same as a cliffhanger on a TV show. There's nothing to explain.

[Orestes]

A4 needs to use Stark's "You can be damn sure we'll avenge it" line from A1 in the first trailer.

Cut/not involved with AIW and it will finish just south of $700M.

Not involved with MIF and it will finish over $200M.

The "star" of Tag and it will finish around $40M.

 

Renner's career is anything but hot.

@LonePirate has been threadbanned for 24 hours due to ignorance of Hawkguy’s glory.

I just wish Hollywood would stop hiring untalented models

 

OKAY I GOT IT VALERIAN BOMBED STOP REMINDING ME

[Avatree]

Oh man that AWIT number is beautiful. Congratulations black women filmmakers.

Probably explained by overspill from sold out Incredible showings, I would assume.

[Daxtreme]

That AIW saturday jump is atrocious. 

 

Possibility of higher actuals?

 

Incredibles 2 may be an animated movie but it's a sequel, so I don't see how it could reach a 4+ multi. Then again... who knows

[L Silverman]

Hahaha, just saw the trailer for Alpha.  I needed that good laugh.  Only thing missing was a "Based on a True Story" tag!

[Thrylos 7]

Reading all these wild predictions about TLK gives me the same “twilight zone” feeling that I had with the inifinity war predictions only the opposite, when everybody was going crazy over IW on the internet except in this forum. Now TLK is being treated here like avatar 2 or whatever, is this a U.S thing or something because I don’t know any kid giving a shit about the original lion king (kids these days play GTA and watch superhero films) and most adults don’t even know what it is, and no they don’t have any affection towards the original lion king like they have for LOTR or Star Wars e.t.c 

 

I guess this forum has actually created some anticipation to me to see how TLK will perform WORLDWIDE (not just in the U.S, worldwide is where it’s at when talking about b.o) because I think all these predictions are simply crazy talk, just like the Mary  poppins talk (again not seeing anybody caring about mary poppins) . Will keep an eye on these two, because I am really curious now....

I really don't get people who say there isn't a hook for Avengers 4.  Marketing for A4 is simple.

 

Trailer 1: Group shot of the original 6 Avengers.

 

Trailer 2: Group shot of every Avenger.

Check the pre-opening IW threads and clubs and what most were saying here (and with very strong conviction) and you will get your answer. Again we are slowly entering bizzaro  world again....

The tag line should be Based on debunked archaeological, anthropological & scientific theory

[Moviefanatic]

Never heard of Alpha. I’m gonna look it up

Quote

Word of mouth is also propelling Won’t You Be My Neighbor? The emotionally resonant portrait of Rogers, directed by Oscar winner Morgan Neville, is on a path toward some eye-popping numbers by documentary standards.

 

“We’re seeing more and more with the film’s word of mouth that audiences are grabbing on to this idea of radical kindness that Mister Rogers lived both on screen and off,” said Focus distribution president Lisa Bunnell, who added that 100% of adults rated the film in the top two boxes and 96% listed it as a definite recommend. “Morgan’s film brings hope to people when we need it in our culture right now.” 

Holy shit

 just saw the trailer for Alpha. Looks like a huge crowd pleaser.  the visual effects are very impressive. I'm down

The Lion King is imo probably the most obvious contender for the title of most beloved movie of all time.

Shrek 2 says hi. And before anyone plays the "way lower OW" card, not really. Adjusts to 159m with no 3d or PLF.
