So Disney is basically owning Christmas for almost the next decade.

Dec '19 - SW IX

Dec '20 - Cruella, West Side Story

Dec '21 - A2

Dec '22 - SW

Dec '23 - A3

Dec '24 - SW

Dec '25 - A4

Dec '26 - SW

Dec '27 - A5

 

I think all this will depend on how the next SW film in this schedule will do, if it fails like SOLO, then they will just scrape the rest from their schedule freeing the slot for something else. The same could be said for Avatar sequels.

Save hundreds of Godzilla gifs for a beginning. I did that and this whole forum will know what that means when May 31st approaches.

I am going to present for that date, just for this and going to prepare some of my own.

You and I had the same thought at the same time. Disney is trying to reserve the dates, but if another studio makes a play and has a half way decent IP to back it up, Disney will blink I believe. That slate looks very shaky and subject to change.

Does your display avatar say Alita Billie Angel?

We could even have a scenario where the movies scheduled for those dates are dependent on TRoS being loved by audience and doing well.

What is it that sometimes I forget an important word in my sentence, I even as I say it in my head while typing the sentence, but still forget the damn word.

That Monday + the weekend are pretty similar to Captain Marvel's first weekend and Monday. Adding Captain Marvel (minus the Endgame boost) to Endgame 1st week numbers gets a final total around 875m-880m.

It will drown in competition sadly. A fishy situation.

 

if the new SW movie is another trilogy from Rian Johnson, how big it will be? I predict it to disappoint(sub 300m domestic grosser). Could even go lower than Solo. Aquaman is fine if Wan does his thing.

I dont think we actually know anything about the projects? (like which director), so i woundt want to give a prediction right away.

That’s an ugly drop for sure

Avengers still pulling off. It will be interesting how it plays for the rest of May.  For these new releases still lumpy. Intruder will probably make $$$ back.

 

Pikachu will probably pull in $45-$60 million OW, and then Avengers will easily lead with $65-$75 million for its third weekend.

 

The Hustle needs close to $15 million, but will more likely do low-teens or high single digits considering MGM/UAR are 50/50 with marketing. But Rebel Wilson’s last film pulled almost $50 million after a $14 million ow so let’s find out.  

 

Poms will probably come close to $10 million. Then do half of Book Club’s total. 

 

But these Monday numbers look typical. But this is overall the most solid May since 2013/2015. So can it break record this year?

To be really accurate, Disney is attempting to sit on the big holiday release dates for almost a decade. However, not all of those dates have actual movies, yet. A2 and A3 are allegedly in post. A3 and A4 may never happen, it really depends. The greenlight on those was always contingent on A2 and A3 performance, and now Disney is calling the shots. As far as the SW films beyond SW IX, that is all up in the air. Disney may go in a different direction if the franchise continues to decline.

 

I think the door is wide open for another player to jump in. The question is, what?

If DC movies make a big comeback and continue to ascend ala Aquaman with 1.1 billion from December, Great WOM for Wonder Woman and critical praise for Shazam..... who knows right?

Minus the Endgame boost? It’s dailies will get better since were headed into summer. Plus double features with FFH.

Right when EG starts seeing better dailies post Memorial Day, that's when CM had Spring Break so it had better dailies as well. Perhaps if it stays in theaters long enough to get to Labor Day for an expansion (IW did not get one). Double features with FFH won't add any meaningful amount.
