I see this thread is starting to go to shit.

How does a movie that looks as vanilla as Captain Marvel illicit some vitriolic hatred? Is it because it has a woman in the lead? Yeah, probably.

Also, while I'm not trying to imply that Alita did poorly yesterday, people really have to keep these numbers is perspective. It's still a smaller opening day than John Carter, and only about a million more than Ghost in the Shell. Sure, it's definitely going to beat tracking, but 100M DOM and 450WW is still going to be considered a big win for it. 

It's kinda similar to Legend of Tarzan back in 2016. It did better than what tracking and people at BOT expected and in a vacuum their runs could be considered fine. But their budgets were too large to really make them profitable for the studio, although I guess Alita might get in the black when all is said and done.

I can’t wait for Detective Pikachu to end the funnybook craze. I’m tired of fanboys.

Problem is, theres fanboys of every property that ever existed. The Pokemon fanbase, from what i have read, seems to be more chill though.

 

Best community remains the Godzilla fanbase. We just have fun lol.

Are gamers really any better tho?

Back to Alita, considering the budget the numbers are not fantastic but they’re better than tracking and will likely be in the green with a $100M/$450M-$500M performance as well as a win for Fox before they become part of a soulless monopoly.

 

March better be big I can see some nice breakouts:

CM O/U $150M OW

Us over $60M OW

Dumbo over $70M OW

But then you'll have the Pokémon fanboy takeover.

 

Also, while I'm a gamer, what @CoolEric258 said. (But Marvel, DC and Star Wars fanboys are in a whole other league of douche anyway )

The rabid Ugly Dolls fans are coming. Brace yourselves.

What kind of % drops would we be expecting on Friday? 

 

I think the last time Valentine’s Day was on a Thursday was 2013 and nothing opened on the Wednesday.
