filmlover Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Just got out of The Bikeriders. It's an alright movie that doesn't break any new ground with solid performances (although Tom Hardy's Midwestern accent even after seeing the whole movie remains lmao worthy) but definitely not an awards player or something people will look back on in about 5 years and wonder why it didn't make more at the box office.

Mojoguy Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 1 minute ago, Ryan C said: I think we will know more on where it will end up after next weekend. See how it holds against A Quiet Place: Day One and Horizon: An American Saga Chapter 1 and then we can make a pretty good guess on if it will hit $200M or not. As of right now though, it's chances are looking solid and that would also give it a higher domestic gross than both Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire and Kung Fu Panda 4. Movies that opened higher, but weren't as leggy. Bad Boys seems to have positioned itself as THE alternative choice to IO2 and it is working out really well.

I think we have a fair bit of data that it's safe to predict it on the higher end. 40% drops gets this to $220M, and there's no reason to suspect that it's drops are going to get worse the further into it's run. It's probably only at risk of losing it's space at your typical multiplex once Deadpool arrives on screen. I honestly see a greater shot at $230M than I do of sub $200M.

We need more Top Gun: Mavericks and less of the Sound of Freedoms. Oh, you're so real. Single? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we need to watch out for an August breakout next year? I've been saying to people, The Bad Guys 2 is coming for 2 billion!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure BB: ROD will do at least $200M domestically, but I'm just being cautious for now. Don't want to set myself up for disappointment. Either way, it's gonna end up right around where Bad Boys For Life was domestically (it should be ahead of that's film's pace by next weekend) and if it can manage at least $400M worldwide, that should give Sony enough confidence to move forward with another Bad Boys movie.

AniNate Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 With this weekend, last 12 month gross rises to $7.992 billion compared to $8.11 billion the prior 12 months. Could catch up again when Despicable Me is out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's out of touch. A big hit doesn't suddenly change the fact that movie going is too expensive for a lot of people, especially families. People just aren't out in force complaining about the industry when there's a good thing going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna be pretty annoying if that movie becomes another excuse to doom about original sci-fis and romcoms when almost no one here has given a crap about it up to now.

Insomnia Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 1 hour ago, Ryan C said: I don't wanna inspire any kind of doom and gloom about the box office right now, but as amazing as it is that Inside Out 2 just pulled a Top Gun: Maverick-level hold this weekend, it can't be the only film that carries the box office for a while. Whether it's a tall order to ask or not, we need both A Quiet Place: Day One and Horizon: An American Saga Chapter 1 to perform well next weekend. To at least show that the box office can have much more variety and won't be living or dying by Inside Out 2 until at least Deadpool and Wolverine comes out. So, let's all hope that next weekend we can get a somewhat healthy top five, especially since we still have two films from May in the top five. In any other summer, that's not normal. Nah you're 100% right. The box office needs some depth badly. That's why I'm looking forward to August. I don't know how high any of the offerings that month are going to go but there should at least be some mid sized hits and the volume of product will give the box office some padding behind Deadpool & Wolverine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, there's no reason to be all doom and gloom about at least romcoms because the marketplace barely gets any in the first place. Anyone But You was a big hit, but that was months ago and Fly Me to the Moon will be another test for that genre. Still, the fate of it shouldn't rest on that movie alone. We'll know if the romantic comedy genre is either fully dead or back if we get a bunch of them in a row and see whether they click with audiences or don't.
