Weekend Thread: Thursday Previews - Spider-Verse $3.5M | Mortal Engines $675K

[Godzilla]

Above $40M would be great! 

[MCKillswitch123]

Damn, that's a great number for Spider-Verse. Less than Ralph 2 and it'll probably be more fan driven, but that was a Tuesday opener anyway. 40+ should be safe, 50 not out of question.

 

Goddess Steinfeld begins her run in the holidays. Spidey will surely have legs worthy of hers. () BUMBLEBEE IS NEXT, MOTHAFUCKAAAAAS

Spidey-Hipster Verse starting poorly in France but we ll see, good wom and the Holidays could change things.

[TimmyRiggins]

That's what we have to hope for. I remember with Avatar. First day, first showing, barely anyone in the room. Went back on the weekend, packed. 

[TwoMisfits]

At least yesterday, we have data from Deadline that ITSV is skewing harder "fan" than "fam" - "Keep in mind Spider-Verse‘s numbers are great for a family animated film at a time when no K-12 schools are off and 23% kids and 10% parents showed up last night. "  So, they actually pulled a "67% adult with no kid" audience.  We'll see if that continues over the weekend...

Just saw Widows and

 

how freaking tall Elizabeth Debicki is ?

 

All the other actors looked like people from the Shire next to her it was ridiculous.

 

The movie failed to do 50m in the US I think.

At the Olympic Games, we run the 

 

100 mètres so 6'3 doesn't speak to me but I guess she s around 1,84m.

[Eric Duncan]

Bit surprised at how low What Men Want is according to BOP. I think it has really good potential for a solid gross.

Agreed. 40/100 not out of the question

[That One Girl]

I hope Spider-Verse somehow makes 60M+ this weekend because it deserves it.  Excellent, excellent movie.  Probably my favorite superhero movie save for Spider-Man 2.

Fingers crossed in case overseas audiences let us down.

As so many actors 'are' 6 feet, I 'saved' for myself = around 1 inch over 1.8

 

1 feet is 30.48cm = 6 feet is over 1.8m, nearly 1.83cm

1 inch is 2.54cm

= she is 190.5cm

For more Elizabeth Debicki, you really need to watch The Night Manager.

People need to calm down about Spiderverse OS and check the Grinch performance outside of Europe. Now that is a bomb if I've ever seen one, and from Illumination nonetheless

Dr. Seuss movies have never done good overseas, this was expected. It’s still a huge hit because of the domestic gross and low budget.

It's a Christmas movie...normally, it will appeal to a more-Christian based country.  So, it's no surprise it skied in the US, did okay in Europe and South America, and didn't compute elsewhere...it requires an understanding of a holiday (that isn't celebrated for the most part in those other countries) to even start to get a movie goer in the door...
