Being #1 trending doesn't make it #1 most streamed. Does it say anywhere on Disney+ website how they define "Trending"?

From what i know, unlike Netflix, D+ trending is actually  the most streamed

 

I mean, if it wasn't organic, it won't hit #1 just on it's third day

Assuming he has got his hands on some data that means over 2m people in the US have paid for Mulan which means at least $60m (probably around $50m for Disney once they have given Apple, Google, Roku, Amazon etc. their share) that’s not a bad figure, can probably double that for Canada, Europe, Australia and New Zealand would seem a safe guess.

But i wanted it to flop. hard 😥

Streaming is a black box, I’m not sure how these analysts claim to track things, but I know at minimum that Netflix absolutely does not release raw data or anything other than promotional press releases.

There's no way Mulan is even in Top 5 Disney Plus top players. That trending list is some marketing BS.

 

Only thing that can give somewhat idea is Disney+ app downloads, even that is very poor idea of things as there are 30mn people already subscribed. Other than that nothing.

Either Hidden Figures, which got a Best Picture nod a week or two after it expanded wide, or, if you don't wanna count that, Argo. 

Come to think of it, Argo too would've stopped at about 6x without the awards season bump (it was 19/110 as of early January 2013). So if you wanna ignore that too, then it's The Ring, which came out two weeks before Halloween, and before that The Others.

I kinda feel as if the “trending” section on these apps are BS, but whatever.

Maybe you should  stop giving definite answers to things you have literally 0 clue about. All you’ve done regarding Mulan is spout baseless negative crap because you thought Disney “betrayed” India with Mulan.

So in other words, it’s unprecedented.

This century? Pretty much.

I would be on team long legs in this case but something tells me not.

 

I will be waiting for actual dailies by Tuesday for better idea. Generally we will be talking about long legs due to limited business initially as if there are capacity limitations and stuff.

 

But as our MTC 1 & 2 data shows, the occupancy of film are lower than The New Mutants and that film isn't showing any better legs. Yeah WoM is better, so legs won't be that crap but I am not that hopeful either.

 

Hoping for $60-80mn full run perhaps with it opening in CA & NY later in run.

I mean, shit, Warners, it’s almost like it wasn’t a very good idea to do this. 

It wasn't a good idea IN AMERICA. Everywhere else it was.

Sure, granted. Roll it out where the pandemic is under control, release in problem areas (like the US) next year.

well you cannot say that like a definitive statement or something, you don't know that, neither do i or anyone here

 

but the movie indeed need like 3 days to reach #1, if it's just something that they control like Netflix, they would put in the top on friday like Netflix do, it doesn't make much sense

 

we can only hope Disney release official numbers someday

[ThomasNicole]

I'm so excited to see Tenet, very sad it won't be released here in Brazil anytime soon

 

I hope Warner doesn't take long to release it digitally or on physical media

That's what I meant. Its entirely in their hand. Netflix do this very often. They put the shows in trending despite them being not that hot so that people can go, "well see its trending".

 

I think we may perhaps never get numbers. Disney is best there when it comes to reporting, so I hope they do but I am not that confident.

 

If Mulan works on D+, guess we will be seeing something like Soul on D+.

 

Though Disney was dumb to not realease it theatrical outside US.
