I think there were areas *cough* conservative towns *cough* where it probably had an abundance of availability, but not the case in the major markets it needed it. My county went like 70/30 for Trump in 2020 and it was packed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragoncaine Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Oppenheimer 7pm IMAX showing tn at my local Regal theater in Syracuse, NY is at probably 80% capacity. Only the first 3 rows are still fully available along with a handful of scattered single seats throughout the rest of the theater. And my theater traditionally underindexes due to so many others tracked here because...it's Syracuse. Barbie's 6:05pm RPX showing only has 36 seats sold, so hoping for a bigger walkup push there. 7:10pm primetime 2D showing has 30 seats sold.

I mention these tittles because female skewing films tend to have higher weekdays and smaller Friday jumps (flatter daily pattern overall) and wanted to put that into the ether so we don’t have another “disappointing” total on Friday or the weekend in total Thanks. That's actually helpful. I still think a $100M+ is possible, but it's feels like there should be some precedent for it to not jump that high to give us some range. I wouldn't have thought of Bad Moms, but I should have looked at Crawdads. Another one I looked at is Girls Trip, with the exact release date, but that was over 6x. We also run into the problem of Barbie being so unique of a performer, that you can't rule out outlier scenarios. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WB has pulled *a lot* of shenanigans over the years. Haven't people been talking about how they were being petty towards Nolan? What they did with the Batgirl movie still seems very bizarre. I get it that it's a lot more fun to dunk on Disney than WB but all these big studios are ran by the same kind of people. Disney, right now, is making atrocious movies. Let the windmills and tomahawks fly. They need to be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were at the mall the other day and Dillards had a huge display of pink heels (nothing Barbie specific, just all a bunch of pink options). There were pink purses on the aisle, pink clothes on mannequins, etc. Daughter ended up getting a pair and chatting with the saleswoman about the movie. Just kind of cool to see the trickle down marketing effect. I think that speaks to the level of phenomenon it is. It is The Movie, The Trend, etc. and, importantly probably for Mattel, it resonated with Gen Z in a way that most traditional media has not. My wife said she had her eyes on a pink swim suit and whatever website it was on recently changed the name from “pink swim suit” to “Barbie swim suit” lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we're supposed to forget about their flops and bad movies because Barbie is such a hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
