If it still doesn't get a big expansion this Fri after Oscar Noms, I'm going to give up on ever seeing it. Really doubt it’s going completely wide, it’s too artsy i think for that And it probably won’t go much beyond this numbers. I’m expecting next weekend to gross 3-3.5M due to Oscar nominations and then start to drop slowly, i think it’ll do this no matter how many theaters it have. But i do think there’ll be some expansion next week, probably trying to get into most cities even if just in 1 theater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valonqar Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 18 minutes ago, Grand Cine said: In France it's depending of the mood and the WOM but in general it's not good , No Hard Feelings made just 100k admissions ( it's a flop) but the movie was 2-3 days at the top on ITunes ( more success in streaming like other countries) , The Lost City made just 650K and Ticket to Paradise just under 400K so not the best country to make money The advantage of Anyone But You is Sony made promotion on Tiktok . Also contrary to other movies that I quoted , he begin one month after the US and could profit of the WOM and box office of other countries + lack of competition . ( This wednesday , we have with ABY , Color People and May December ( yes , one of the few countries that the movie begin in theaters instead of Netflix)) oh wow that's an excellent input into French boxoffice! Big thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Atrocious expansion for Poor Things. Hopefully theaters don't drop it this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 The Heron drop!! The way I’d love if it pulled off a major Oscar upset and got the BP nom with a big re-expansion. It could do so much more. Still think the expansion should happen either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was so sure that was gonna be the big bomb and I’m glad to be proven wrong. that said, I am gonna pat myself on the back a bit after calling Wonka being the biggest film of the holiday season. Sorry but did anyone not call this? It did in the most unremarkable and blah way it ever possibly could have, which just kinda proves it was inevitable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Impossible Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Poor Color Purple. Taraji nuked the movie. It dropped like a rock when she came out crying for more pay and feeling badly treated. Like she couldn’t wait to talk about that after the box office and awards season run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic Draper Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Saw Poor Things and I absolutely loved it. In my top 5 for 2023. I was not expecting it be as funny as it was, most I have laughed in a theatre in years. I did think the first half of the film was better than the 2nd half. It meandered a bit too long in the back half, but still loved it. 9/10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Studios which made those movies won't get a single cent from those views, they just sell the rights for a fixed price depending on movie's theatrical perfomance (unless it's their own streaming platform) and maybe some extra points like awards/reception, so it doesn't mean anything. Poorly performed movies are usually sold for a hole of a donut. Not sure how beepekeeper fits into this tbh. Its already at $75M on a $40M budget. Will likely break even at theatrical if not profit.

The Color Purple has terrible box office drops even before Taraji started to speak about her issues with TCP production. Honestly, Taraji complaining early was the best for her message, because the interest on TCP would be on the floor after the awards season run. In fact, that's likely the reason why she decided to complaint so early. Edited January 21 by Kon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, to be fair there were some who seemed to think it wouldn’t do anything. No clue why given the Xmas options this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric is Anxious Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 20 hours ago, grim22 said: I will say that it does seem as the New Year came that my Regal at least is listening to these complaints. Instead of the 10-12 minutes of ads before the trailer, now it's about 7 minutes. Even the trailers are shrunk from what they were a year ago. So now the show starts 20 minutes after showtime, which...I mean, still probably not that great, but it goes a long way making the experience more tolerable. I think they are listening.

Assigned seating is a good thing because you get to come late and avoid interminable amount of trailers and ads. It's like "skip ads" button in real life. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable that Buffalo loses again b/c they can't have a kicker make a very makeable FG... Wide right... My kid wants Baltimore to win it all this year and he wanted a KC match up. I told him he got what he wanted, but to be careful for what he wished for, b/c Mahomes doesn't choke, but Buffalo somehow always does... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
