Yates has done some great things, but it’s time for someone new. So just because you want someone new, they should fire Yates from a franchise that is and Jo's baby? I can't understand that attitude. Waterston confirmed he's directing all five. That's it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say it’s unlikely at this point but we’ll have to see how this performs in more markets. I was more referring to future wizarding world projects though. But I do think a new team should have been brought in for FB but we’re three films deep now so, alas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadGoose Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 There will be a 4 and 5. Not to mention they are building FB expansions at Orlando. And considering they appointed Tom Ascheim to oversee the Wizarding World expansion, it's a sign of WB's ambitions, and also smart for WB to keep Jo, the architect and creator of that world, happy if they want more, providing that she has any desire to do more after FB5.

Noctis Posted April 13, 2022 Share Posted April 13, 2022 There will not be 4 and 5. Covid has fucked SoD in China and South Korea, but its drop in the UK has been absolutely staggering. Unless it somehow manages to hold well this weekend in the UK. 4 is a big if, but 5 an impossibility. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogerio Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Maybe we'll have one more just because Warner would not want Rowling angry (?) But I'm sure we won't have 5 movies If they do one more, just give it to Yates.. everything is ruined But if we have more projects on the WW, I'm sure we won't have Yates anymore And I'm happy that MEDIOCRE director won't do anything more with this incredible world 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilipJ2001 Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 FB3 has actually gone neck and neck with Sonic on Tuesday and Wednesday. Sad to see. Lost City opened yesterday with around £500k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonwo Posted April 15, 2022 Share Posted April 15, 2022 I'm not sure why wanting a new director and creative team is seen as a bad thing. Heyman and Rowling will be still be involved in any future films but having fresh eyes and ideas can revitalise a franchise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilipJ2001 Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 53% drop for FB3 yesterday. Sonic and Bad Guys both had a small increase week on week 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 Car park report 😂: we had to go to a Showcase because the Sonic showing got cancelled at Cineworld (technical hitch apparently, notified 24 hours in advance though). Car park was absolutely packed. The weather isn’t nice here lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
