6m-7.5m previews. Looks like a lowball.

Doesn't look low to me. Seems pretty on target based on tracking thread data. 

[Mojoguy]

This summer sucks. No more movies making a billion for the rest of the year. 

[Maggie]

Maybe deadline is lowballing, so the official numbers, although still small,  will look better.  at least, i hope.

[Maggie]

The reviews on letterboxd are bad and on imdb, not much better. It seems the cannes reviewers were right

If tracking projects a movie to mega-bomb weeks in advance, is it still an under-performer if it reaches those numbers?

[LegionWrex]

Definitely a yikes considering it's budget, though when compared to other older skewing franchises it should frankly be a warning to not spend like $300 million on them more then anything. Thinking the final number is more around $6.3.-6.5M depending on how things turn out.

[TheFlatLannister]

under $7M would be just sad

 

That would pretty much lock under $50M right?

Depends on multipliers but it would be a possibility. Still don't think it will be that low frankly but prep for the worst, hope for the best, stay for memes.

Just when we all thought The Flash would be the biggest flop of the year, Indy is like "Hold my beer".

Under performed expectations for sure but that's because everyone's expectations were incorrect, mine included. I think too many people saw what Top Gun did and just ran with 80's nostalgia + major IP + summer = big box office. 

[Grebacio]

Lots of empty seats this weekend with Indy and Ruby.

Yeah I mean even on the relative low end Indy will make like 40-50 million more domestically than the Flash, which was billed for years as the movie to end all superhero movies that you would get character assasinated online if you doubted. I do not care about their "budgets" - those numbers are unreliable and Hollywood accounting bullshit even on a good day, and anyway who cares. The Flash did worse relative to expectations than Indy pretty much no matter what at this rate.

Yep reacting to  Deadlines wide ranging estimates based on nothing concrete at all.  Already time to tap out on this thread.
