I guess they though everybody will be releasing a horror themed movie near Halloween, and wanted to avoid the competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderByte Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Fair. It'll be on Disney+ for Halloween at least. But yeah by all appearances this is a nice family-friendly type "spooky" horror thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the kind of film that could be profitibal at 75 to a 100 Million, but not at 160 Million. It has to do 300 Million , roughly, just to break even. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpiderByte Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 While it's almost definitely not getting #1 I think this wont get quite as run over by Barbenheimer week 2 as people expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMP Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 40%-ish would be pretty good for this, no? If it manages to score 60% then 40m+ might be locked 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroHour Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Jungle Cruise sits at 62%. I don't think anything below that could be considered good for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 This is facing Barbenheimer's 2nd weekend. It feels like Disney left this out to die. THM should have never moved from it's August 11th date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poweranimals Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 (edited) Still not seeing any rating from RT. Only 2 reviews are showing up. Both of which are good but that's a really small sample size. Meanwhile nothing on MC. I guess even the critics don't care. Edited July 25, 2023 by poweranimals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THM should have never moved from it's August 11th date. They likely moved it up in order to have it on Disney+ by Halloween. They probably figured it'd never be a theatrical hit in this day and age so they'll at least get some seasonal streaming fodder out of it. I wouldn't go as far as to think they're deliberately burying it under Barbenheimer though, as back when this got moved up, Barbie was still seen as a Detective Pikachu-style lame duck. A lot didn't see that movement coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Prime Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Reviews are finally coming in (some critics jumped the gun I guess), and they all basically read as "it's fine I guess". They are all praising Lakeith though, so that's good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
