others are

 

Sing 2 - $7.8M (lemme check if this include early access or not. may be not)

Matrix - $6.2M

King's Man - $2.2M

Encanto - $0.9M

I guess Mickey's Law, not COVID, is what will kill theaters. This year sucked big time.

Both got to 3 movies so I guess they had the same duration. Percy Jackson only got two.

At least we got 4 movies with parts of that cast after that picture was taken (Fant4stic, Apocalypse, Dark Phoenix and Logan). Tatum being in there is legit hilarious tho.

Yeah tbh WB taking the L for studios (including giving theaters business when theaters started reopening) is pretty fascinating. Crazy to think how WW1984, TSS and now Matrix would've done with full theatrical exclusivity, great advertising and no obstacles in its way. 

 

Honestly this just shows how "well" Dune did. Part 2 should be huge.

How much is Disney leaving at the table by releasing Encanto onto Disney Plus tomorrow? 

$30 million maybe? 
I think the fact people knew it was going on there months ago affected it too. With no Disney+ announcement I think it would have done closer to $180 million.

NWH will climb beyond even Avatar domestically

One good thing about WB  committing to hybrid releases all year, they basically made other studios realize they need to abandon hybrid releases almost completely.

Universal is giving Marry Me a hybrid release next February

Im not sure. My rules for failure is that it has to have at least one sequel, or a blatant embarrassing sequel-bait cliffhanger ending that will never be resolved - like Azula in The Last Airbender

At this point, I don't think we get another 150m non-Disney or Marvel movie outside of Jurassic World.

How much are they gaining with signatures on Disney+ by putting it there tomorrow tho?

 

They also need to keep subscribers.

 

Providing happy holiday memories is one way to do that.

My favorite part about this photo will always be how Jackman and Reynolds are all smiles while everyone else is sporting expressions of indifference. They knew!

Was Deadline's 143M prediction for FSSM or TFSS?
