Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't see this huge market for people going out to the theaters to see a TV show specifically. If you want to watch Boba Fett or Hawkeye or Stranger Things or Game of Thrones, chances are you already own Disney+/Netflix/HBO. So outside of diehard fans, wouldn't most people just choose to watch it at home free with their subscription than leaving their homes and paying 15 bucks on the big screen?

The Lost finale is quite good. I still get sad thinking about the scenes in the church.

Giacchino's Spiderman work is pretty good, but his score for LOST is untouchable.

100% his most iconic score, I agree.

He made some amazing music that I don’t think he’s ever topped since. Although I do love his scores for Let Me In and DOTPOTA. Have you ever heard his Alias score? That was his first big show and he doesn’t do any music like that anymore that I’ve personally heard. I actually bought the cds for his score to that show and I had never done that before in my life at that time. Although I would’ve bought Christophe Beck’s Buffy score on CD if it had been available. Those 2 composers on those 2 shows really shaped my music taste for film and tv.

To be fair all of those were better mentors and had better dynamics for drama than Iron Man. 

 

You didn't get any feels when Peter died in Tony's arms or when he hugged him when he was back?

 

I also thought it was fun to see Parker help Tony during the airport battle.

 

And "if you're nothing without the suit then you shouldn't have it" was a classic line.

 

Their banter in Infinity War?

 

To each their own, I guess.

Not really, no. I’ve seen the bond done between an inexperienced Spider-Man and a veteran hero done better in the year as Infinity War. Then again I do think Iron Man is easily the least likable or interesting Avenger post IM3.

[Krissykins]

Just realised Scream won’t be #1 because Spider-Man’s 5th weekend will probably still be $60m+
 

FML, but congrats to Sony lol

[Tokugennumataka]

If it opens over $240m, what's stopping it from reaching $800m? IMO we have the first movie to land between $1.7 and $2 billion.

Nah, not even close.

 

Let alone when he was the best thing out of Civil War and Endgame.

Nothing! Next weekend Christmas boost, third weekend new year boost, huge holiday weekdays for 3 weeks, no new release first week in January, fantastic WOM from fans, excellent reviews. 
 

and covid clearly isn’t impacting this particular film in any way. I think it’ll be closer to $900m tbh. 

[titanic2187]

Why not studio try Demon Slayer strategy where you have episode showing on streaming and save the finale or last few episode as exclusive movie event? It worked so well for DS and definitely worth trying for some of the popular series on streaming.  

[Gokai Red]

Please I just want previews to be between 53 and 57 just so we can argue over what movie has the biggest "real" previews gross in December for all time. Come on Sony!

Fanbase rush limits the legs no matter how good the WOM is, I think legs here are still pretty uncertain.

Don’t think you’ll need to worry about that. A 60M+ 5th weekend would require the most ridiculous legs ever. NWH would probably be the DOM highest grossing movie of all time by then with those legs lol

why wouldn’t they be comparable to Force Awakens and Endgame. This is having similar reactions. Repeat viewings will be through the roof.

True, lol. That was just a quick glance at drops for films with a similar release date, sorry.

Endgame is what I'm thinking of, had bad legs despite stellar WOM because everyone interested wanted to see it as soon as possible.

The point is there will be holiday weeks, increase the chance people will watch it again and again if the movie has amazing WOM.

What people will do in holidays? Going to the cinema is one of the activities.

 

None of other Marvel movies were released in December to have this opportunity. So it happened that the legs were not good despite good WOM.
