KP1025 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 $500 million OS seems to be a good target for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marathon Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Hoping it will break out. I'll be contributing with my small and humble € next weekend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salvador-232 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 There's a lot of buzz in Chile but pre-sales are just fine (seem on track to finish around Shazam). I think (and hope) that this will be a walk-up monster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salvador-232 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Don't be sad @Nova, Shazam was very walk up friendly (a normal super hero presale would have indicated a 300k USD OW, while in reality, it did above 600k USD). Besides, the comp is only for OD, Pikachu has a lot of presales for the rest of the weekend, and that is quite unusual. And I insist, the buzz is very strong (both online and among real people) and families are hungry for something that isn't Endgame. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t sure how Shazam did over there and for some reason it’s not reported on BOM. I thought Shazam did poorly there considering how it did in other OS markets Just hoping for a solid gross at this point for Pikachu.

titanic2187 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 One hidden advantage that could be in favour of pikachu instead of disadvantage is released right after the end game storm. As far as i know , the pikachu trailer played right before EG in every shows. Along with the initial trailer release, I would assume this help cinemagoers to keep their memory and awareness fresh. My theory could be wrong but this could really be a wildcard like mini JW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeeSoh Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 (edited) Feeling 500+ for this right now. Chinese presales indicate a good OW (maybe even a great OW if things continue the way they are) and a good total (if the reception there is good ofcourse). The only thing that may be an impediment is how much Endgame will affect this. How much money are casual movie goers willing to burn given that they have already spent so much on Endgame.

Not many people can afford to go to multiple movies in the same month. Hence I was wondering if Endgame sucking up all that money is going to affect DP or not. But I suppose I can answer that myself. We have already seen multiple movies existing and doing well side by side, no reason why DP cant do it either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lor15 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Uruguay a priori isn't looking good atm, like 1/3 of EG 3rd weekend showings, I hope it has good wom.

Fullbuster Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Even in Japan it's not huge for now, which is surprising. Wait&See. I'm a Pokéfan so i hope it'll do very well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salvador-232 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Chile's presales 37% above Shazam. Targeting 1m USD opening (equivalent to 79-80m domestic ) 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A simple trick: using "solo" every time you want to use "alone" makes you awesome. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
