TwoMisfits Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 2 hours ago, M37 said: Just thinking out loud ... What is the next film that will reach $250M domestic? Flash is looking like a longer shot, Indy 5 sales are just weak, MI7 would have to overpreform previous films, Barbie is a wild card, and then we're into Aug/Sept/Oct where there is just a lower ceiling on totals due to school weekdays & football, before Dune 2 and Marvels in November. Last year we went from Thor L&T on 7/08 until BPWF on 11/11 between that threshold. Gotta think something has to pop in that time frame, mostly likely MI7 or Barbie, but not guaranteed MI7 is a slam dunk for that b/c it's my 2nd place movie from my April summer picks (GOTG3, I'm happy to report, having probably now kicked it to #3, but I'm gonna keep the faith like I did for Spidey even after seeing initial theater sets and closing ones:)... Whether the rest of June hits it before that...I dunno...I mean you'd think Flash (Father's Day and 3 day weekend, so abnormally backloaded Sunday) and Indy (July 4th holiday) have the best chance before MI7. But it would be hilarious if animated goes 3-for-3 and Elemental or Ruby Gillman somehow legged to it with all the swim teams and summer camps...

grey ghost Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Does Spider-verse 2 have a chance at 800m WW? Most predictions before presales were probably under 700m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean Disney could recover from the OS floppage? Yes. For every $100m of merchandise sales Disney profits around $10-20m. From the doll it might be closer to 20% if not even higher. These tens of millions of dollars are likely to push it over the breakeven point even if OS tanks badly and the WW is between $550m-600m. The home entertainment sales might be a key factor too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is the number, that is the 1st really disappointing number vs Aladdin. And it may be b/c Spidey's WOM is now taking all the air out of the room for other holdovers. At my showing, it was insanity, with true sellouts (yes, even 1st rows) for cheap Tuesday at all evening showings...
