dudalb Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 It'sopening in Russia, but with that foorage of long lines in front of ATM in RUssia, I can't help but think Russian box office is going to take a huge hit. People arejust not in the mood of spending money right now..and for the forseeable future as the sanctions really sink in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I wish it did not open in Russia. With rubles in tatters(well deserved) its revenue wont make a dent plus this is not a good time to open movies in Russia. That said I am not expecting a great opening but it should have a good run in many markets due to good WOM. Hoping China comes on board to take it to a strong WW total. I am expecting strong legs in domestic with great reviews/WOM plus open marketplace. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooper Legion Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 Yeah this will be lucky to make like 5M in russia under current conditions. I think WB would be better off cancelling the release. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker was a rarity, an event, like NWH is. You perfectly know that Joker was not the usual SH film. It is based on a character comic, sure, but it is not a SH film. It is way closer to The king of comedy than to TDK. Many people who NEVER see this kind of films went to see Joker. Another proof: how many people here expected Joker making $1b WW before the release? Just one person. And the OS thread was opened 1 day after Phoenix won the prize in Venice. In a forum full of SH hardcore fans, was not there an OS thread for a SH film some weeks before the release? Nobody expected those results. Not even close. For that reason, to expect the same for The Batman is to set yourself to be disappointed. IMO, it has no sense. Yep. I know many people who see a lot of arty films and don't like superhero stuff who went and saw Joker, they won't be seeing Batman films though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And studios are coming under pressure to put a hold on releasing their films in Russia until Russia withdraws from the Ukraine. WHich I would support, being all in on making Russia pay the maximum.

RJ55 Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 OS forecast for me i guess UK 50 France 25 Germany 20 Italy 10 Spain 10 Brazil 30 Mexico 30 Australia 25 SK 17 Japan 18 Total 235 Rest of Europe 40 Rest of the World 75 China 100 Total 450 This is low end actually for me. WOM clearly can drive it much higher but i know that at least in Asia it wont be big because some of SEA countries +Korea still have many Covid case. Also SK presale is just ordinary but if WOM is great. Europe can easily get 50m or more also in Japan and Latin America. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose next spidey doing less than FFH would be disappointment but 1B should be done. Of inc China. NWH inc China is like 1.55-1.6B. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The debate was about if we should expect the same for The Batman OS-China than Joker did, and in the same way you would not expect something similar to NWH for a future normal Spidey sequel, something that seems absolutely logical, I would not expect something extraordinary for The Batman just for the fact Joker did what it did.

Cooper Legion Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I was just making a joke about china fwiw. I agree that some fall from outlier success is fine, and Joker is outlier of outlier. Any kind of reference to it's success being applied to expectations of actual Batman movies makes less than zero sense to me. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't think it will reach that high but joker made 70m+ and just like joker it's kind of adult skewing . I think it can get to joker numbers personally. Batman IP does pretty well in the UK. Generally feel your Europe numbers are little low. Batman is skewing for that joker audience and generally Europe eats up those kind of superhero movies. it will depend on WOM but think this will do well enough in Europe to get to 500m overseas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joker was always an outlier and did suprisingly well in Asia . Batman has never been an OS 750-1.b+ juggernaut. BVS had the hype but they fucking blew it. Batman is very strong domestic . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already said in there that its low, it can get higher but those europe number is easily achievable. WOM of this movie still the most important factor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are good estimates and I agree on almost everything (maybe I would have put the UK at 60M and France at 30M), but for Japan and China I think these are already quite optimistic forecasts, particularly in Japan it would be really lucky to exceed the 15M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know 3 or 4 million are not too much for WW figures, but it would mean a 30% or 40% higher in Spain than those 10 million. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The studios are coming under pressure to boycott Russia, and this will make doing that a lot easier. And the Russian Economy will just get worse. These Sanctions are not coming off..and will get worse,,until Russia is out of the Ukraine which will probably not happen until something happens to Vlad the Mad. It's going to be a long haul.
