Oppenheimer dropped -43% when BB was released, and GB: FE is gonna open higher than that. I'm expecting $15m-$16m. It's splitting many regular IMAX with Ghostbusters.

I’m not gonna get my hopes up. It’s losing a lot of PLFs and the weekend gross has often been below expectations based on weekday holds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwoMisfits Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 After this week, the next 2 weeks of weekdays will be good days for box office. Then, we'll hit the doldrums of April til we start getting colleges out in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think an under 40% drop is very possible 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Oppenheimer has achieved almost everything. Next is only strong run at Japan. Early PS makes me slightly optimistic it will do very well in large cities with big expat population. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems unlikely to me but Japan does have a connection to the film no other country can claim and that might be enough to drive it higher than expected.

Its hard to predict that market. Pearl Harbor did break out over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess even if it does $25M, don't think UNI gonna let it in $985-1000M. There would be some re-releases here and there to push it over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should keep re-releasing it in North America, Europe, China, and wherever else. $1 billion would eventually happen, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrFanaticGuy34 Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Speaking of older movies that needs another theatrical re-release to hit a certain special box office milestone, The Lion King (the 1994 original 2D-animated film) would be a perfect 90’s film to bring back in theaters for nostlagia’s sake, in order for it to be pushed to $1B+ WW, since it’s only $32M WW left to that mark. Considering the film celebrates it’s 30th anniversary this year (since it’s a 30 year old Disney movie), it would make perfect sense to re-release the film in theaters to both an old audience of adults who want to relive the old theatrical experience of seeing that film back in previous theatrical releases when they were young (1994, 2002, 2011) and to a new audience of kids who have never seen the original TLK in theaters. Jurassic Park got theatrical re-releases enough for that film to get over $1B+ WW, so why not try this with the original ”The Lion King”? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
