Legion Again Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Weeekend quite as expected, except family movies trucking along a little stronger. Will do a sep % analysis tomorrow, for now some projected totals: JC 2m wknd, 112.5 cume, 2.8M week, low 120 finish FG 5M wknd (easily a record), 108.4 cume, 6.8M week… 130 finish? SC 22 wknd, 177 cume, 32.5 week, ~240 finish depending on how it stands up vs competition 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legion Again Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) Apparently this will be just O/U the best 3rd wknd hold in the mcu (IM1 -37.8%). It’s a tough target but I would love to beat TROS 4th weekend. Edited September 18, 2021 by Legion of the Ten Crores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raya got a 6.43x Cruella got a 4.05x JC finishing with 120M will get a 3.42x FG finishing with 130M will get a 4.58x SC finishing with +240M will get a 3.2x The only exception will be BW with a tepid 2.28x 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestPicturePlutoNash Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Really wish people who want theaters back and thriving would go see adult dramas like Tammy Faye, Cry Macho or Card Counter in addition to the big comic stuff. Theaters need those, too Dear Evan Hansen is probably flopping next week 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Card Counter was a great film, though I was bewildered how the reactions from others when I was leaving consisted of "I don't get it. What was the point of the movie?"

I’m not hoping for them to go extinct or anything. But… strictly speaking… do theaters need them? If adult dramas were permanently down like 50% vs pre-pandemic and superhero movies were up like 15% it’s pretty conceivable that theaters would come out ahead financially.

Maybe not great numbers, but better numbers regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJohn Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Not even one single movie coming close to 10M OW during the entire month except Shang-Chi. What a disaster.

What a disaster. We are very far away from any sort of solid marketplace for movie theaters. DEH will probably be close, could even pass 10M. Rest of this shit wasn’t hitting 10M OW in normalcy anyway (malignant or macho might have with an exclusive model). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porthos Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 30 minutes ago, BestPicturePlutoNash said: Not everyone has HBO MAX And HBO Max isn't free, either. Personally I think we're a bit too quick to lay most/all of the blame for underperformance at HBO Max's feet. Finding out their actual user base (as opposed to people who could qualify for it due to having HBO via a multi-channel subscription but aren't actually using the HBO Max service) has been a bit difficult though admittedly I haven't tried that hard. Still, I tend to think that while HBO Max is a factor, I do think it's a bit of an overstated one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legion Again Posted September 19, 2021 Share Posted September 19, 2021 Even if “people who pay for a max account of their own watch it on that instead” isn’t the only causal mechanism, it seems pretty clear between Macho Malignant Reminiscence TSS that Max releases are putting a real drag on movies. Some of that may also be account sharing, direct piracy, movies not “feeling like” events, or WB marketing less because the financial equations around marketing are different.
