We could have all seen this coming if we just looked back at the last time they tried doing an additional installment without Will Smith.

 

To understand the future.....

 

You gotta go BACK IN TIME

 Remember things like this when people claim that they can 'ALWAYS' spot CGI.

 

Thors arms in the last 2 Avengers movies were also completely CGI. No one said a thing.

Pattinson won't even have to hit the gym if that's what they can do with computers now

[John Marston]

Sony will now make a deal with Marvel to put the Men in Black in the MCU

[Lordmandeep]

TS4 went from a film that likely would have under performed to likely do gangbusters due to a lack of any interesting blockbuster films.

Shaft's a pretty low risk project as WB/New Line only funded half the budget, Netflix funded the rest in exchange for international distribution. 

Do we have a source ?

 

Sam Jackson sequel of a 100m movie if the rumored extremelly small 30m budget for this are true, $15M for all the rest of the world exclusive release that would be a very weak amount.

 

I cannot find any detail, but 2017 article are saying:

 

. Netflix will pay more than half the film’s high $30 million budget, in exchange for international rights and the ability to put the film on its streaming outside the U.S. two weeks after New Line releases theatrically in the United States. 

 

To give an idea, the movie Think like a man:

I love how the second verse is just him describing why you should see the movie (also I never realised Megan Good was this video).

Did Hems do a credits rap for MiB International?

Hopefully Pitbull graces us with an original song for Cats.

On the bright side, if Shaft loses to Rocketman we’ll dodge that all-rotten top 5 I mentioned earlier 😛 

... or if Phoenix loses to Rocketman

 Fox/Disney’s Dark Phoenix is dropping from the sky in weekend 2 with $7.6M in 6th, -77% with a 10-day total of $50.3M.

Newest update also has RM 8M and Aladdin 14.7M. Frankly these are too early to take seriously and I expect that Shaft, MIBI, Aladdin, Phoenix, and Rocketman will all rise from the numbers in this update.

Jokes aside, I have said that the "hook" was it's a Thor/Val AU adventure.  The problem with that hook: is the movie sucks, no one will go.  Because the Internet doesn't need to actually watch the movie to make up memes and gifs.  We just need footage.  Call it the Pika Pika effect.

I dont know, but Will Smith did one for Aladdin and you see how well that turned out.

[Marathon]

All poised for a massive breakout next weekend, then.

 

Child's Play: $300m

Toy Story 4: $200m

[Lordmandeep]

Its rather obvious

 

Post endgame... why pay the same price for a sub par action blockbuster films.

 

Just watch it home...

SLOP2 will have another big drop against TS4

-----

Shaft, Rocketman, KOTM, DARKP all could eye 7.5-8.5

-----

Thanks to Father's Day else DARKP would have dropped 80%

 

FANT4STIC held better
