filmlover Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Wolf in 308 theaters making a lot less than half of Licorice Pizza's second weekend in just 4 is truly quite something. Focus completely dumped it without even the slightest bit of effort. A predictably slow post-Thanksgiving weekend. With massive theater drops coming up starting in two weeks it's clear where every movie is gonna end up now. Encanto will probably need to be pushed past $100M if it gets close enough while House of Gucci is looking at a $45-50M finish, in normal times these wouldn't be great numbers but as it stands these are a new high for both the struggling animated and adult drama genres in the pandemic era.

Valonqar Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 DUNC can't stop winning. GBA and Encanto are cancelling each other out (family market). Gucci will pass 100M WW I hope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starphanluke Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Even though there are little victories here and there, it was still a pretty depressing weekend all around. Save us, Spidey. (Actually curious to see how WSS will do. Feels like there's not much excitement for it, but the reviews are fantastic and it's Spielberg. We'll see).

TwoMisfits Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 Fascinating study just done - most worrisome for theaters - the percent of likely lost and hopefuls (most of these who apparently still wouldn't go back) and the impact it may have on future movie-making. https://thequorum.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Exhibition-At-A-Crossroads-11.29.21.pdf Now, the study may be BS, but it's interesting...and I like to post interesting, especially when it's about demos who are showing and those who aren't (TL/DR - it's a HEAVY skew to men of all ages for all movies with a heavy skew of young hispanic women showing up just for the biggies:)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see it at this point, unless it gets another re-release come Oscar season (and is actually an Oscar player). But I'm not that concerned, really. It already performed much stronger than expected and the sequel was confirmed ages ago. $400m was just another flashy number that would've been fun to reach. Speaking of which... Eternals total WW number seems low to me. That's definitely an underperformance, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 (edited) What an absolute shitshow of a weekend. Shame to see Encanto won't reach 100M as family movies are in extreme need of a small victory. Gucci is another worldwide disaster for adult movies. GB:A is a stunning trainwreck OS and it will drag itself to the 200M WW total if it is lucky. Eternals WW total is an absolute disaster. Benedetta is too good for America. People don't want to comeback. I wonder how long Hollywood will keep this going. Edited December 5, 2021 by CJohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's selling well in LA and (especially, and unsurprisingly) NYC for next weekend so far looking around. Theatre/Sondheim geeks showing up in sizeable numbers is probably gonna result in some frontloading. Easily opening at #1 regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see Eternals WW total for this weekend. EDIT: pretty good breakdown for Gucci given its running time and that it isn't an action spectacle: Edited December 5, 2021 by Valonqar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His movies are too interesting for the land of Trump and the Kardashians. amazing how well Basic Instinct did back in the day despite mixed reviews and that's before adjusted for inflation.
