emoviefan Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 11 minutes ago, Cmasterclay said: I actually really do think this September to December slate looks awesome and stacked, it's no longer a matter of this being a weak box office year and more a concern of whether box office is sustainable as an industry period. In a regular environment where theatrical can survive, I have zero problems with the slate from really mid-June on this year. Yeah it's a valid concern. I am sure theatrical will survive though. Theaters will just do what people have been saying they are doing. Cut hours and staffing during the slow times. Will see what the AMC I am going to today too see Civil War is like.

CoolioD1 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 2 hours ago, CJohn said: I have had too many bad crowd experiences in theaters in the past 2 years to care much anymore. I still go but if it all closes down tomorrow and movies go straight to streaming I am perfectly OK with it. two weeks ago I went to a full screening of Evil Does Not Exist and the guy sitting next to me was loud heavy breathing on me the entire time. Like I could feel his breath hitting my face for the entire film. burn theaters to the ground. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lionsgate had put a decent effort into marketing it it might have a been a solid hit ala the Beekeeper or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoxOfficeFangrl Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 1 hour ago, filmlover said: I mean, it is 4/20 today. I wonder if Paramount will report the numbers... One of the local AMCs is playing it all day today, but the other only has one showtime starting at 4:20 (of course). It's already on Paramount+ so I doubt it will do much.

filmlover Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Cavill should probably just shallow his pride and stick with TV (even after leaving his show for a DC/Superman return that ended up cancelled before it even began). He clearly doesn't have the acting chops to become a mainstay in prestige projects anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His last chance at movie stardom is the Highlander remake that Chad Stahleski is directing but that got pushed off so Chad could go try to rescue Ballerina.

AniNate Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 (edited) As of now here's the positive spin I'm still latching to: 2022/2023: $7.989 billion 2023/2024: $8.427 billion Praying for some kind of miracle breakout in May to keep us from falling behind Edited April 20 by AniNate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

titanic2187 Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 Civil War continue to have similar trend as KoTFM but better 2nd Friday. 70m is in play if better trend continue but over EEAAO would need some really great 3rd and 4th weekend hold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to see One Life recently and it was insane: - two woman talking, recording the entire movie on their phones and checking other phones; - a couple with the notifications sound on, - there was also a heavy breathing guy!!!! You could hear him in the entire room. Theaters suck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He clearly doesn't have the acting chops to become a mainstay in prestige projects anyway. I think directors/studios will probably still hire him. He’s going to live off that Superman fame forever. It’s like they don’t understand that people like the superhero, first and foremost, the actor who plays is secondary or sometimes doesn’t matter at all. We’ve seen many MCU and DC actors flop once they are outside of the suit. Edited April 20 by babz06 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el sid Posted April 20 Share Posted April 20 1 hour ago, Unfitclock said: Man horror movies have done really well post-pandemic not sure why this year they’re struggling so far I mean the black phone which was not marketed well at all opened over 20 million in 2022 I though abagail with the great reviews could at the very least open to 15 million but the trailer views were very weak on the film so I can’t say I’m super surprised Well, I'm a horror film fan (no matter if supernatural or survival etc.) and I can only speak for myself but I'm not too surprised that so far the horror films weren't successful this year. Besides the lack of (decent or clever) marketing and sometimes too late dropped good reviews many of the trailers just were less appealing than they could have been e.g. that of Night Swim or not appealing at all, e.g. those of Immaculate and The First Omen. The trailer for Abigail was ok IMO (the first half was promising but after that not much new material was shown). But who knows, the year is still young. I don't expect wonders when it comes to "Trap" but it could be decent and successful and I also saw some other interesting marketing for other horror films.
