Ahhh I was so happy for a good two minutes.

 

AXE: Judgement Day is an epic Marvel event.

Being up from a 50% drop doesn't make it good. $19M would not be good. It would suggest that Christmas and Boxing Day contained a short-lived surge, due mostly to the storm I guess, and were not indicative of its run going forward.

I’m sure Disney & Cameron will be wiping tears with cash.

So, I have a list of the movies I saw in theaters this year thanks to my son and our subscription (and we actually watched more movies theatrically, so subscriptions work - normally, we are 10-12 max).  Not counting cheap summer movies, I watched 14 movies in theaters (and my son 16, b/c dad took him to Jackass Forever and The King's Man when Covid was bad...and I had no interest...the last part mattered a lot).  And it's a pretty diverse list in the end...

 

Uncharted

The Batman

The Lost City

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

The Bad Guys

Top Gun Maverick

Lightyear (this and Thor 4 rival for worst paid for movie)

Minions The Rise of Gru

DC League of Super-pets

Thor Love and Thunder

Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero

Black Adam

One Piece Film: Red

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish

 

Other than the 2 mentioned, I felt like the rest of the movies were at least mostly to completely worth going to see them...that's always a good year...

Plot twist: I am your ex and this is an incredibly elaborated plot I’ve been running the last ten years.

Out of curiosity, how would we all feel about a $19M Tuesday?

Would guess 21-24. Chain ratio will be lower for Tuesday as it was last week.

I have the expected range at  roughly -5% to +10% of RO for the holiday period

This seems like a bad idea...but what do I know.

 

I thought the original movie was a bad idea at the concept stage with so many characters...oh wait, it was.  Well, at least for the sequel, they've already killed off a bunch (unfortunately, that included the one I liked the most) and set aside just a few to use if they want to go the space route, so I guess there can be more possibilities to make a better movie...

I mean it's not real, so...

It just does.

[grey ghost]

Babylon, Into the Spider-verse and Bullet Train all had around the same budget. (80-90 million)

 

It doesn't take a genius to figure out which ones had a chance to cross the magic 2.5x threshold. 

 

TBF, whoever greenlit Ticket to Paradise kept their job, 60 budget with a 171m worldwide gross. So I guess you can give a drama a moderate budget and come out on top but it's kinda higher risk than an action movie with a slick production.
