WittyUsername Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I can’t believe we still have a studio doing a day and date release late into 2022. Does this have something to do with Beast underperforming, or is the movie just that bad? Or both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with a barren Fall, Kills killed a lot of enthusiasm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnokesLegs Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) Idiotic decision, just utterly stupid. Even if it’s “bad”, they’re still shaving box office off it by doing this. By all means drop it on Peacock on November 1st when it’d drop like a stone anyway, but day and date is just so dumb.

Mojoguy Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 (edited) I can't believe Pea**** is going to pull this day to day shit with this movie. Even freaking HBO max stopped doing day to day in 2022. What a disaster. I guess Ends won't be the boxoffice savior, and it will be up to BP2 to resurrect theaters after 3 months of nothing.

The Wild Eric Posted August 23, 2022 Author Share Posted August 23, 2022 It is funny how there's always one new day-and-date Peacock movie every quarter. First Boss Baby 2, then Halloween Kills, then Marry Me, then Firestarter, then Honk for Jesus, and now this. Place your bets on what movie for the next quarter's getting this treatment. My money's on that Distant movie with Anthony Ramos they keep delaying again and again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you censor the word Peacock?? You also seem to be forgetting Black Adam the week after this one. With this one going to Peacock, Black Adam is now the first big theatrical and PG-13 movie since... Thor 4 way back in July. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s just not true lol The last one sucked, but absolutely agree. If you imply it's the "end" that gets butts in seats. Unbelievably stupid choice here.

They can still get subs if they drop it 2 weeks later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money's on that Distant movie with Anthony Ramos they keep delaying again and again. I'd bet on Cocaine Bear personally. Then maybe Book Club 2? The Exorcist movie in Oct '23 is supposed to be the start of another David Green-directed horror trilogy, with the next two installments set to debut exclusively on Peacock. I'd like to take bets on if the first will go day-and-date like these two Halloween movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
