Mixed?

You may need to look at the video below. These are far from mixed.

His 184M OW prediction itself says that he assuming movie will be more walks up heavy than previous 2 MCU movies, so 2.8x of OW is definitely possible if movie does 184M OW with 30M previews.

Ragnarok 2.58*

Dr strange 2.7*

Catching fire  2 .7ish*

 

And both those had good reception. Weekdays in November always mute the legs.

 

And it's to far from Christmas to benefit much from the period.

 

So yeah 2.8* is a little bit optimistic.

 

 

 

[jedijake]

a 2.8X is not far fetched at all if it has good weekend holds until Avatar and then also has decent mid-week numbers during Thanksgiving and Christmas/New Years holidays.

 

People talk about the movie being sad. Sure this will hit on a real-life nerve. But remember Infinity War, End Game, and NWH had their share of sadness as well.

Most reactions I'm seeing are saying this the best MCU movie this year.

 

It's knowhere near SC or NWH in terms of reactions.

 

You have to read btn lines.

Nice to see Ryan Coogler delivered after the two previous movies were majorly disappointing in my eyes.

 

And lol at the trolls calling this mixed reviews. This is far from what Eternals got.

[TheScarecrow]

A few of the video reactions I’ve watched seem…muted. Hard to tell if it’s because the movie was sad or if it’s because their reaction isn’t actually as positive as their tweets?

 

Kristina Harloff for example sounds over the moon in his tweet and in his video looks bored and says “oh well that’s just initial thoughts, I’ll review it later”. 
 

Curious…

The same movies I've mentioned all had the same benefit of Thanksgiving/Christmas.

 

NWH is literally a Christmas release

 

IW and EG had 2.6* and 2.4* legs respectively behave like any sequel which is always way more front loaded.

 

There is a way box office behaves in spring,summer and winter . Early nov releases  have a specific consistent behavior and not saying a movie can't change things up. Most in most cases they tend to be first movie in a franchise or an original film and ofcorse animation.

 

This is a sequel . More fan rush on OW .

 

210*2.5 is more plausible than 185*2.8.

 

Avatar is direct competition to BPWF . It's gonna be a plf monster. 

 

6 weeks is enough time for a marvel movie to make it's money ESp this being a sequel.  It's too far to benefit adequately from the Christmas window .

 

 

 

 

[Factcheck]

I'm sure this will get A Cinemascore but I won't be surprised if it gets A+ bcz of emotional tribute .

I watched his video as well and he seemed pretty enthusiastic to me, the tone of the reactions isn't going to be the same as something like NWH but he spoke very positively of it.

I think you have to manage expectations with reactions, people want this movie to be amazing.

And many are suggesting it is.

If this is what we call mixed every other cbm released this year would be considered shit tier garbage based on initial reactions

Ummm, that wouldn't be far from the truth...it's been a bad year for supers...with (IMHO) 2 still flawed movies being the best of the bunch and the rest being below average to atrocious (hi Morbius and Thor)...

[M37]

My take from reactions:

 

Expecting BPWF to score well well on RT, from critics and audiences alike. But I do wonder if the inherent sadness, even if woven into the story beautifully (from circumstances beyond their control),  doesn't pull it more into the "like" rather than "love" range. Its just more difficult to excited/hyped over a story that - by necessity - is at least part tragedy

 

The one comment that compared it to war epic seems apt, in that like a historical story, the ending is already somewhat known. Unlike Endgame post-snap for example, we know going in there isn't going to be a triumphant return.

yes but to expand on my point. With this film being a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman people are likely to lean towards all the positives
