I don't quite get this statement for Blended: "Warner Bros. has put out more likable material lately"

First off, that statement is debatable, as Transcendence says hi. Second, how does that dictate Blended's quality and/or potential for box office success?

He's modeling Blended off of past trends instead of current buzz, like he's doing for Neighbors. Current buzz, and stock price, has it going to about half of 100M. Maybe a little higher, but I'm hard pressed to see anyone legitimately excited for it.

Bolder is XMEN5 and APES2 > SPDI5. {nm} Antibody Apr 23, 17:01

Personally I think both those films look better. Not as excited for Spidey, even though last was fine. Apes # would be nice if pans out. {nm} lobogotti Apr 23, 17:04

I think they are WAY low on Maleficent for total box. IMO that movie is going to do very well, especially if reviews are good. lobogotti Apr 23, 17:02

Lana Del Rey music/May release/female targeting makes me think Maleficent will be a Gatsby redux... MrZero Apr 23, 18:53

He's just modeling Deliver Us From Evil on Conjuring, Get On Up from The Help. {nm} Antibody Apr 23, 17:06

sure. I think both are underpriced, but those estimates seem high IMO. lobogotti Apr 23, 17:09
