MovieMan89 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 (edited) 3 movies over 700m DOM released in a 12 month span would be insane and I think shows the way the box office has shifted post-covid… it truly is feast or famine now so much more than ever.

Yeah, not healthy in the long run, but at least we're still getting the feasts for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The GOAT Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 1 hour ago, stuart360 said: So its gone from creaming over the 'low' opening weekend and celebrating, to 'its a flop if it doesnt hit 800mil lolz'. I thought you said you wouldnt do A2 vs TGM domestic race because it would be embarrasing for A2?. Is reality finally dawning on you?. Try harder Alfred. Besides there is more to the world than just the US, A2 will blow past TGM worldwide by 600-800mil. The People have high expectations for the sequel to the biggest movie of all time. I don't blame them though as The Way of Water will most DEFINITELY go over 800 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex SciChannel Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I am kinda depressed Universal pushed forward the PVOD date for Puss in Boots toward January 6th. It could harm PiB international Box Office and it's chances of getting to 300M worldwide. Why can't Universal understand this is a leggy movie? Please Universal, your film is great and should be seen on the big screen. 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoncaine Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 $23-24m leads to $65.4-66.4m before actuals hit tomorrow. On the high end, Avatar 2 would beat Black Panther's 3rd weekend of $66.3m by $100k, to clinch 3rd place for all-time third-weekend gross. Wild stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A season known for pronounced box office legs. Hopefully they change it back again after they see the result of the 2nd weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also can't fully understand that either and it's not like there was anything controversial in the movie either.

Having issues about the movie is fine, but most of the hate comes from those who don't want this to make more money than the 'brand' they support. As a moviegoer, I'm happy movies like this make money. I feel the same way towards Marvel, SW, animation, the small productions, etc. I even want DC to make money lol because these runs make box office interesting and fun. Also, what do they get if this movie doesn't outgross another? Is there a cash prize? 😂😂😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
