If the 40m-50m projections for the weekend holds. Definitely. Surprising that it went that big. Not smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing so many screens plus its 3+ hour runtime is a double whammy for Endgame! Plus going forward, its daily screening will be decreasing from 4-5 times per-day down to 2-3 or 1-2 in some locations (except on the weekends), and that will hurt it as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedijake Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 May 6: Aladdin looks like a joke! Guy Ritchie? What the hell were they THINKING? God this looks AWFUL!!! Will Smith is a blue nightmare! The leads are boring as hell! This movie has "bomb" written all over it! They should have at least waited until 2020 when there wasn't any competition so it could do something! Looks like Disney is going to have to rethink its remakes!!! June 6: Will Smith is back!!! Guy Ritchie is a genius! When are they going to make sequels??? 7 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a great horror series on Netflix right now....not sure if you get it in scotland but if you do...PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE check it out. It's one of the goriest most violent things I've ever seen. The killings are brutal and genius. The first season is very good, the second is fucking brilliant and the third so far is very good. It's a whodunnit kind of series. I hope and think you will enjoy it. It's called SLASHER @75Live Thanks for the tip. I'll check it out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much the nail in the coffin as far as its race to catch Avatar, at least during EG's initial run. Oh, well, only us BO geeks were all that interested in it overtaking Avatar, I guess. And it seems ridiculous to feel even remotely disappointed in the BO performance of a film that's grossed over $800-mil DOM and $2.7 billion WW! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamblinRed Posted June 7, 2019 Share Posted June 7, 2019 I'm interested in the Aladdin and Zilla's numbers from Thursday. Does Aladdin manage to post a number higher than DP's previews like it did last week with Zilla? I'll say no, but it'll be close. How much does Zilla drop on Thursday? Aladdin dropped 14% last week when it lost IMAX and PLF. Can Zilla have a similar drop or will it be worse? Also, were the huge gains and mostly solid drops on Tues and Wed due to the Islamic Holiday that one poster mentioned a couple of days ago? If it was, then are we overestimating the likely totals for this weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their budgets are typically half of what regular animation is and they have a world wide following. With an 80- million dollar budget, the film could gross 300 million WW and it would be a hit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a lot of Indians celebrating Eid were going to see many NA movies, at least In my city, which is Indian centric, all of the Indian films were either sold out or close to it on the Wednesday. By contrast, Godzilla and Alladin at the same time of day were very very soft. My Zilla showing had 5 people in it. Bharat was sold out. Chandgahr was about 75% sold out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any news on Thursday preview numbers of Dark Phoenix? I heard it could be $4-5 million, is that accurate? Because if it is then DAMN, that's pretty bad.

I also don't see it flopping, mostly because of the low budget. But it could underperform relative to expectations. The first one made $875M, more than BvS and Inside Out. If Pets 2 just grosses around $500M+, then it's underperforming. And Illumination should worry about its BO trend.
