Lmao, I knew this reaction was coming with the previews… first of all it’s early, and secondly it’s not going to be a “previews” kind of monster. Waiting for true Friday

Post titanic cameron is ehh. Still liked avatar 2 but God sections had me rolling my eyes , the plot with the children is just so painfully generic and in my head I was like "cameron you can definitely do better than this" 

Stephen Lang plotline ,like seriously are u kidding me.

 

Third act was the best part of the film.

 

Think titanic got to his head Abit. Just hate his long waits btn movies now .I know he wants to perfect the VFX but the scripts are just not  worth the wait .

 

T2 and Titanic are his major achievements imo.

Aliens is good but prefer the original.

 

Nolan is my favorite director and he is not perfect ,he has his flaws too but he is definitely miles way better than what Cameron is now.

 

Avatar should have been just one film and some  will disagree . Yes Pandora is massive world but clearly Cameron doesn't really know what to do with other than his VFX obsession.

 

First movie kind of  worked but the second film he clearly ran out of ideas. 

 

 

Probably this has something to do with the age? JC was in this 30s-40s when he made Titanic and Terminator, that is pretty much Nolan had his prime.

If Oppenheimer is close to 40M in presales I could honestly see the weekend hitting 80+.

Final Predictions.

 

Barbie: 300

 

Oppenheimer: 200

Opening Day

[Ledmonkey96]

what's the over under on the combined Friday being over 100mil (True friday for Barbenheimer + all the rest)

[Bob Train]

People who thought Barbie would make just 40m for the OW before presales started are saying 20m for just previews is disappointing 

 

 

[Rocketracoon]

Oppenheimer numbers strong hopefully WOM is good 

[redfirebird2008]

So Oppenheimer's preview number is potentially 60% higher than Dunkirk's preview number. If it's able to have similar performance over the next few days, it could go over $80M for the weekend. Even if the previews make up a bigger percentage of opening weekend than Dunkirk, it could still land well above $60 million for the weekend. That's very good! 

[Liiviig 1998]

Oppy staying within predicted range even with capacity issues is great. 

70-80M+ .

 

 

[Borobudur]

Is universal purposely masking the verified audience score for Oppenheimer? There still isn't any score on RT.

Has to be satire. Has to be Satire. Has to be Satire. Has to be Satire

HISTORY IS BEING MADE RIGHT NOW

Fantastic numbers for Oppenheimer. Very likely to be the biggest non-Batman opening of Nolan's career.
