THR: David Sandberg says he wasn't consulted about the cameo in S2 marketing, has a project with James Wan not at Uni. notfabio Mar 19, 12:33

Tons of spoilers about Shazam 2 at link. Also wants to work with Walter Hamada at Paramount. {nm} notfabio Mar 19, 12:34

Well, that would account for the Paramount projects he mentioned to me. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 19, 19:30

Also wanted, but realized he couldn't keep Zegler's goddess role a secret, only test screening audiences see a film the way it was intended. {nm} notfabio Mar 19, 12:35

That would have been silly because she was always advertised as one of the Daughters of Atlas. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 19, 19:30

He told me he has something at Sony, two things at Paramount and another at Netflix. TheWeekendWarrior Mar 19, 19:29

Fandom: JDGRA says SPOILER filmed AQUM2 and SHAZ2 cameo back to back Antibody Mar 19, 09:34

ZSNYD via CBM: MOS BVS ZSJL IMAX re-release last weekend of April Antibody Mar 19, 09:26

Supposedly connected Grace Randolph had guessed it was SnyderCon (eye roll emoji) {nm} Antibody Mar 19, 09:27

THR: MOVON roughly $2 million Antibody Mar 19, 08:47

If it made $2 million, it's in the top 10, not in 12th as Pamela states. Avatar made $1.9 million and is in 9th place otherwise. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 19, 08:54

BOM: MOVON $797,735 Antibody Mar 19, 12:12

BOM: Return to Seoul (RTSEO) 65K weekend (est) - Total 424K ....currently ARB Peter453 Mar 19, 12:22

BOR: 30.5 for SHAZAM 2 notfabio Mar 19, 08:16

Some rando provided a list of worst openings in 4000+ theatres, 30.5 is only the 12th worst. Nut Job 2 was the worst. notfabio Mar 19, 08:18

A lot of animated & kids movies near the top. {nm} Tallwonder Mar 19, 08:48

From Lionsgate: JSREV made $3.5 this weekend and $45,539,700 total... she be ARB! {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 19, 08:14

And she be delisting tomorrow! {nm} Grunt Mar 19, 11:35

BOR: Inside made $470k in 357 theaters or $1,317 per theater. TheWeekendWarrior Mar 19, 07:55

Rachel Zegler is slammed by many China people, because she refused to sign autography for a China guy Peterlee Mar 19, 07:11

The China guy even called her as "Snow Black" in chinese language.... Peterlee Mar 19, 07:14

One of those comments is me saying, "Put some clothes on, girl!" ... in Chinese. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 19, 07:24

Did she sign autograph and take picture with anyone else? {nm} Antibody Mar 19, 08:03

He said so. But I guess any star can choose whether he/she sigh autography for any person {nm} Peterlee Mar 19, 08:44

and the China guy is clearly racist; he called Zegler "Snow Black" in the weibo video (while Zegler didn't say anything racist) {nm} Peterlee Mar 19, 08:46

Rachel is generally chill and accessible (she literally posted a selfie with a fan in Times Square on insta yesterday) {nm} my mate paul Mar 19, 11:26

Maybe old news but Dungeons and Dragons (DNDGN) having an Amazon Prime early access screenings March 19 Peter453 Mar 18, 20:39

This to go along with early access days on March 22, 26,29 and previews March 30. {nm} Peter453 Mar 18, 20:41

Paramount is really going all out to promote this (in contrast to what was just done to Shazam by WB) {nm} Peter453 Mar 18, 20:42

ive had that stock for a very long time and its never let me down once...lets see if the movie can back it up... {nm} horrorfanatic Mar 19, 03:47

i saw this at 2:03 i could have enjoyed a free movie {nm} dennkenn Mar 19, 14:05

Wasn't free as an FYI -- just were able to buy tickets in advance of the release. Was sold out at my showing in Austin -- good fun! {nm} MiyazakiFan Mar 20, 10:01

I'm sure someone else can collect the OMGWTFLOLBBQs for Air out of SXSW {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 20:27

Awards Watch: AMC Theatres is now listing CHALLENGERS as a 9/15/23 release (post-Venice/screening at TIFF?) notfabio Mar 18, 15:41

Does anyone know the deal with this Demon Slayer movie? Why hasn't it reported BO since it's $10m OW 0n 3/5? tomcat90 Mar 18, 15:25

Most anime film distributors are not exactly the tightest run ships and regularly fail to correctly report box office/theatre counts/etc. notfabio Mar 18, 15:52

It was still showing last weekend (and did just under 2M for the week) but Crunchyroll/Sony did not report it to BO services I guess Peter453 Mar 18, 15:55

Crunchyroll hasn't been reporting box office. Not even BoxOfficeMojo had it reporting anything last weekend even though it was still playing {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 16:42

Official Shazam # from WB for Friday is $11.7 million in 4,071 theaters {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 08:02

Considering the frontloading for these movies, I"m dubious of a $30 million weekend BUT TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 08:03

Even at $30m, if it matches the same delist mult as the OG (2.3089), it would delist at $69.27. The OG was 90% RT and this one is 54% {nm} tomcat90 Mar 18, 08:26

Opening weekend could be affected by March Madness, too... and it has one week in April ;) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 08:44

It also has WICK4, DNDGN and MARIO on the next 3 weekends :) {nm} tomcat90 Mar 18, 09:13

At least you did not bet with me {nm} Peter453 Mar 18, 09:21

I would if you had agreed to $100 {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 09:39

Good thing you didn't! Peter had a great early call. Just overplayed the bet a little :) {nm} tomcat90 Mar 18, 09:48

He got greedy. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 09:51

I was never going to take your money honestly WW. I had access to the presale numbers and knew it was never getting to 100 total. {nm} Peter453 Mar 18, 09:58

I think the 25 would have happened (spoiler inside) Peter453 Mar 18, 09:57

Tweet from David Sandberg Peter453 Mar 18, 10:09

I hope he already got financing for his next horror project, cause comments like that aren't the way to make friends with your studio. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 13:12

My guess is all the big DC announcements turned a portion of the fan base off which could lead to somewhat better multis all around MattW Mar 18, 09:47

Should know by Cinemacon the degree of dumping for Aquaman 2 notfabio Mar 18, 08:58

I doubt they would dump Aquaman in January... first movie is a huge hit and there's no SW/Avatar competition over Christmas. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 09:01

I am worried about Aquaman and even the Flash {nm} Peter453 Mar 18, 09:21

Wick will do well next weekend, I think 70+ {nm} Peter453 Mar 18, 09:22

Aquaman did very well in China. It will need China again or the film is doomed as well {nm} JayPrimetown Mar 18, 11:20

Numbers: Inside made $170k in 357 locations on Friday TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 07:38

Who had Good Burger 2 beig greenlit for Paramount+ on their HSX bingo card? {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 06:41

"being"... (Sorry, Roto) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 06:45

actually, something Nostradamus said in 1562 suddenly makes sense now {nm} Rishoutfield Mar 18, 11:12

Shazam CinemaScore B+... same as Black Adam. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 18, 06:04

WINNR screening next Thursday in OC Antibody Mar 17, 22:26

Teaser for Renfield (RENFI) Peter453 Mar 17, 18:23

30 sec TV spot {nm} Antibody Mar 17, 19:20

WoR via DanielRPK (thanks to notfabio for post below) - APACI to star in HEAT2... Qix Mar 17, 15:47

i know it's a cliche but he really has gotten too old for this **** {nm} my mate paul Mar 17, 15:58

The book would work much better as a limited series than a movie, in my opinion RupertPupkin Mar 17, 16:44

Get ready for Al Pacino with deep fake dot set photos {nm} notfabio Mar 17, 16:49

As long as he repeats that dialogue in the same way, I don't care whether its a deepfake Tallwonder Mar 17, 23:34

David F. Sandberg talks about one of the Shazam 2 post-credit scenes. Was a last minute non-James Gunn substitution notfabio Mar 17, 14:48

Spoiler: Was supposed to be Justice Society (from Black Adam) characters in the post-credits. {nm} notfabio Mar 17, 14:49

If anyone wants to know what happened to the Mr. Mind tease in the end credits of the previous movie... TheWeekendWarrior Mar 17, 15:25
