Pathetic.  Consistent trolling over a period of months takes a particular kind of person

Worthy of a thread ban or two!

 

Or ppl could just stop breathlessly replying to it

 

It's generally harmless, not sure why folks jump straight to the banhammer

Can someone explain to me why a sequel to a $600M+ movie would not be presales heavy? 

I think it's an issue of JW not being a real sequel but rather a reboot, and the other sequels in the franchise being way too old to be relevant box office comps. So we've never had a true sequel in the franchise in relevant times, therefore some are just assuming the franchise can't be frontloaded based on how a reboot performed. Maybe they'll be right, but again box office tendencies are against it.

Pixar has won the summer animated crown for seven of the last ten summers.

 

True, but Disney never schedules WDAS films in the summer. 

 

Would be nice to see them go for it again considering what TLK was able to do in the summer.

Wow! That's an insane preview number for Incredibles 2? The question is how high can it go. It must be more frontloaded than most other animated films, but Dory's record is still easily going down, it seems.

I mean I don't think JW2 will be as front loaded as a CBM but all this talk about it being walk up heavy and that it's presales don't matter literally goes against everything we know about box office. 

 

At the end of the day, we live in a day and age where almost every movie is relying on advanced sales. Where people expect walk ups and the walk ups never happen because advanced ticketing has taken over to much a larger degree and every single year we see films become more presales heavy. I don't see why JW2 is the exception to this.

 170m? That’s a good number but I expected more seeing as it’s a 14 year in the making sequel and benefiting from the peak of superhero movies (IW).

Lol people are overrhyping Incredibles here. The first movie wasn’t good and outside of random Twitter fans no one really asked for a sequel. The general audience doesn’t really care - hence why the first movie is one of Pixar’s lowest grossing ones.   I see this doing 200-300 million domestically TOPS. 

 

 

Trolling is not an easy jobs.

[La Binoche]

Good hold for O8 in light of the mass appeal of I2. 

 

Anything on Hereditary?

The last WDAS film released in the summer was Lilo and Stitch in 2002. (Winnie the Pooh released in 2011, though). The following year, they released their first summer Pixar film: Finding Nemo.

So are Finding Dory & I2 successes rooted in Nostalgia ?

I would say so.

DP1 wasn't .  DP2 was since it was a sequel - well so is JW:FK

 

Even if DP2 is twice as front loaded as JW:FK it's numbers aren't looking great for a sequel to a $208m opener.

 

In Europe, all major territories except Bayona's Spain the o/w decreased by 30-40% .  The same drops would mean a $125- 145m o/w

I will always be a little bitter over Moana not getting Cars 3's date. Movie could have killed it in the summer, especially with DM3 not being all that strong DOM.

Those cringey "Kids should wait till next week" people..

I'm going to disagree the holiday period seems to be a lot better for movies that focus heavily on songs in general than Summer. 

 

Also it wasn't noted in the Thursday thread but as of Thursday Fox is the first studio to surpass Black Panther's Domestic gross.

[Jandrew]

At the theater. My dad looks like a kid in the candy store.

 

Please say a quick prayer that I get the Spiderverse trailer. Much appreciated. TY.

[Mekanos]

I’ve been busy the last few days so I googled the current BO thinking “probably aiming for a 130-140M weekend at the moment...holy shit 170???”

 

Could this be a reversal of JW/IO in 2015? Jesus Christ.

[The Futurist]

So, some of you are saying I2 is gonna outgross Toy Story 4, corrrect ?
