Main Trailer on YT surpassed 20M views, but at this point its clear that GxK will have far fever trailer views (atleast on YouTube) than GvK, though that was never the bar for success ofc, since GvK had a whole other world of circumstances around it. Its definetly an encouraging number and shows that interest is there.

 

The movie gets overshadowed right now because of Minus One's hype, but in the long run, the current overall Godzilla hype can only help this film. 

i think the problem with your analysis is that due social media  like twitter and tic toc people mostly watch theses trailers through these avenues now, also the trailer on YT has 600K+ likes indicating a great number of people who saw the trailer or interested in the movie

This is a good sign. Not a small part of GvK's positive reception had to do with its more condensed runtime. These movies really dont need to be more than 2 Hours long.

I'm going to put this out in the wild and see if it's a Hot Take But:

 

GxK doesn't need to be a Good Godzilla Film To Be Well Received Or Do Well at the Box Office

 

It Needs To Be A Good Kong Film

I kind of wish this was Kong 2. No Godzilla. Godzilla Minus 1 lurking around is going to make this look bad. I get it.. two different types of films. But still.

It's gonna be interesting to see if this can be as successful as GvK without the novelty of seeing Godzilla & King Kong together for the "first" time

Should be pretty easy without a day and date streaming release

No, it's true. Pains me to admit as a G fan but Kong is more popular domestically for sure.

Godzilla 2014 had a bigger OW than Kong 05 or Kong: Skull Island.

Let's make Godzilla x Kong and Godzilla -1 double features happen!

The Godzilla algebra double feature.

[Alex SciChannel]

My prediction so far:

 

OW: $70M - $75M

DO: $170M - $185M

WW: $500M - $672M

OS: $330M - $487M

 

I'm really optimistic for overseas idk why. I see this performing similar to the more recent Fast movies domestically which is a bit conservative atm.

Bumped up to March 29.

There's no way I can see it succeed with such a short marketing cycle. Getting a lot of Solo vibes.

RIP Ghostbusters

[filmlover]

April is now almost completely dead unless something from May is moving there. The biggest releases of the month at the moment are The First Omen, Challengers, and Civil War.

[Lighthouse]

I don't understand this move.

I know test-screenings have been terrible, but this is the kind of movie that survives that.

[Eric Lasagna]

This should have been moved to June for Pride Month.
