Not for the faint of heart. "The Super Mario Bros. Movie 2" is currently set to IPO 30 March, at $300! Wowza. Is that a record? 45M buy in {nm} Rocket Mar 17, 14:53

That is effin' nuts. I don't even remember Star Wars movies IPOing that high. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 17, 16:43

Biden would bring back commission free Saturdays :) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 17, 16:50

I think there was something that IPO'd at 350 at some point, but don't quote me on that {nm} MattW Mar 17, 16:58

How that moviestock was ever above $100 for a while is a big mystery. {nm} Jay_Beezy Mar 17, 18:00

Not really. Even Morbius opened with $39 million. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 17, 23:18

Perhaps *before* Morbius came out, I kinda understand, but not *after* it came out. {nm} Jay_Beezy Mar 18, 06:40

STAR9 was H$400, according to my trade history {nm} TFeeney Mar 17, 17:13

Yikes. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 17, 17:32

It's true! And if you play it such a ridiculous IPO right. . .and clearly wrong. . .you can still do OK. Abraxas Mar 17, 22:34

Except STAR9 delisted at around $480... so anyone who bought at IPO and held long probably didn't have such great ROI. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 17, 23:05

SPID9 IPO in Feb'22 at $300, currently ~$309 after 2.1 years, likely cashout Jan'27-Jan'28 or later IF release date announced by EoY Tallwonder Mar 17, 23:58

A Star Wars IPO at $H300 is much more worthy... We have no idea whether a Super Mario Bros sequel will do as well as the first movie. TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 04:07

what? it was a juggernaut on streaming. 91m hours in four weeks {nm} Moviesnob Mar 18, 08:04

Based on the box office of the last film, MARIO is a bigger franchise right now. Antibody Mar 18, 08:19

Release date is more like Dec 2025 to July 2026. {nm} Antibody Mar 18, 08:22

First Mario movie delisted at 490M... so great expectations for the no2? {nm} lukasck Mar 18, 12:27
