I'm calling it: FF beats Superman's opening weekend and gets an A CinemaScore. Who is going to see it this weekend? {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 24, 14:42

it's clobberin' time! {nm} tealfan Jul 24, 14:57

Tuesday or Wednesday because I'm cheap! {nm} Abraxas Jul 24, 15:12

Disney+ for me with this one. Their films don't carry the same weight for me anymore {nm} Moviesnob Jul 24, 15:42

FF got no meme juice. It's fine, but Superman beats it on multiple fronts. {nm} pro-satoshi Jul 24, 16:27

Except as a movie. I've only seen Superman once but I will prob see FF 3 or 4 times in theater. {nm} The Weekend Warrior Jul 24, 17:25

But, you probably have A List or Regal Pass, sooo...... {nm} ndmaster Jul 24, 20:09

I might see it at some point in August. Maybe it'll wear me down by then. Still haven't seen Superman. Eddington this weekend (priorities). {nm} goodvibe61 Jul 25, 05:26

Let's see: aside from the 1st GOTG, the last MCU movie I saw was the dreadful "The Avengers". When was that; 2012? goodvibe61 Jul 25, 05:31

THR: PWC does not expect theatrical box office to meet 2019 levels until 2030 notfabio Jul 24, 12:33

it's 75% on the studios at this point. demand for good product is obviously back. they just need to make more and release in theaters {nm} mr teriffic Jul 24, 12:56

I would argue we're going in the wrong direction. We're too top heavy and demand is down so prices are going up Moviesnob Jul 24, 14:45

agree that prices are too high but that's been 100% of the increases in box office take since 2002. {nm} mr teriffic Jul 24, 15:42

The difference is pricing is now being driven by PLF {nm} Moviesnob Jul 24, 16:14

Dead delisted back in December 2024 WAROW. Another Universal dump to streaming ala Distant {nm} notfabio Jul 24, 12:00

This was shot back in 2020. {nm} Antibody Jul 24, 12:02

I wonder if there's some accounting reason they are finally dumping these titles. The VFX look like they pulled their budget out from them. {nm} notfabio Jul 24, 12:05

Good to know. I'll definitely watch it. I've always liked Timur's style. I'm hoping he finished the Watch trilogy movie series. {nm} CButera Jul 24, 15:40

I do, too, but if he's going to keep making movies that take place on computer screens, there's little reason to release them theatrically. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 24, 18:07

In honor of FF's release opposite Superman this weekend, here's some interesting MCU vs DCEU box office data. Decoman Jul 24, 11:32

Ouch! Peterlee brings out the claws! ;) {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 24, 08:56

Is that Rupert Pupkin's entrance music? TheWeekendWarrior Jul 24, 08:56

Awww... now I feel bad making this joke cause Hulk Hogan is dead. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 24, 09:18
