The weekend threads have been so dead since TLK. Wonder if Joker will save us or we need to wait for November.

joker will have a 100-page thread for sure

70s would've been like 10M less than WB's expectations which is while low, not really that shocking. 

The  connection between deliberately lowballed studio “expectations” and what causes meltdowns around here is... rather faint.

I think Joker thread will be amazing. I predict it will have an insane Thursday previews number and Fri that will get people's hopes up but shockingly drops on Sat & Sun when people realize it's not a standard CBM 

followed by epic meltdowns on here. 

Excuse me but the correct term is "Heated Gaming Moment"

It all comes down to that Sunday drop. Will it follow the pattern set by WB's last two Fall kick-off horror films (It and The Nun) and have a steep drop? I'm guessing yes, as there's really no reason for it to deviate. A 38% drop or lower means it will hit $90M (assuming the $33M Saturday number is correct).

IT 2 was a great movie, but you can definitely feel the long running time. I think this will hurt the replay factor.

 

This movie is longer than most of the Avengers movies. I don't see this movie getting good legs, not because of its quality but the running time.  All in all, cast was great and the movie was very enjoyable. It's not boring, just a little long.

Solid increase from true Friday then aiming for the 88-91 area. Overall its fine and the rest of the films in play seem to be at least holding ok.

I wouldn't call Pixar kids movies. Frozon is the biggest kid's movie. You set the aim too high for Shazam.

It's a matter of the materials not MPAA ratings.

Go on... please explain how Pixar films aren't kids films. Very curious to know why you think this.

IT2 had a real shot at giving the biggest non-Disney ow this year as FFH had a Tue release and did 92.6 over the ow. Gonna fall a bit short.

If the biggest non-Disney opening this year is FFH that will be just 26% of Endgame. Previous largest discrepancy this millennia between highest Ow and highest OW from a different studio was 2017 with It 1 at 56% of TLJ. Just bonkers.

Angel Has Fallen : 53.5m after 6m weekend.

10.65m away from 3x multi.

What Sunday drop would you say is most likely? Just as a prediction.

They've been kinda weaksauce on the marketing so far this year tbh (outside of Joker)

I’d argue Pikachu and IT2 has great trailers but their late game marketing of recently has been ass.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Jumanji 3 will go over $100m OW (not much over, maybe $110m max) and be the biggest non-Disney OW of the year. The discrepancy record will be set either way, though.

it's december though. jum2 did 53 over 5-day. for this to double that over 3-days is nearly impossible imo.
