Fall Guys 2030, Civilization 2031, Elden Ring 2032 {nm} budice Apr 07, 09:20

Will the call of duty movie get the go ahead now? Also GTA is a contender, but I doubt the studio allows it while it's still hot MattW Apr 07, 10:19

They key is to make these movies PG. Neither of those would go that route. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 07, 10:54

Yeah, Fortnite undoubtedly is going to go for PG-13 when/if it happens, they would never would hear the end of it for COD/GTA. {nm} notfabio Apr 07, 11:16

DL: Death Stranding finally has a director, Michael Sarnoski Antibody Apr 07, 07:25

It's rare for studios to debut trailers on a Monday morning, or even Saturday. {nm} Antibody Apr 07, 06:58

Cinemacon debuts, Disney especially debuts early to avoid poor quality pirated versions {nm} notfabio Apr 07, 07:47

I didn't see Bill Murray or Jeff Goldblum mentioned in the cast {nm} RufusS Apr 07, 07:06

BOM: WITEL $25,000 111 theaters Antibody Apr 06, 12:33

Yeah, that's what happens when you don't bother telling journalists your movie is coming out or send critics screeners when asked. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 06, 12:44

Why is the MINECRAFT stock so low? Rishoutfield Apr 06, 09:53

There's only so much money in the game and players around to buy the stock... (I bet lots of people already own it) {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 06, 10:01

As of right now, some assumptions: ndmaster Apr 06, 10:07

Also this isn't the first time I've seen this happen. {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 06, 10:28

Jurassic World comes to mind {nm} RamsFan2004 Apr 06, 12:38

This is crazy. Another 5 million shares traded, it is up another $15 and the longs and shorts are virtually unchanged {nm} ndmaster Apr 06, 20:00

Pretty normal. Even when it was rumored to open over $130 million, people had already bought in and have just held onto it. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 06, 13:08

Even two weeks ago, the predictions I was reading said mid 60's opening weekend...which is right about where it was priced. randomviolinz Apr 06, 13:16

DCORE is promoting the cameo voice of Jor-El from the Snak Peek Antibody Apr 06, 09:33

VA mentioned it 3 days ago Antibody Apr 06, 12:36

THE LUCKIEST MAN ALIVE stumbled upon $282k in 659 theaters Antibody Apr 06, 09:34

Still nada for SCMBT... oh, well. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Apr 06, 09:47

One of the few movies I'm not rooting for. {nm} goodvibe61 Apr 06, 10:03

V: MINEC $157M Antibody Apr 06, 08:33

Everyone seems to agree thats on the low end. Expecting a jump on Mon {nm} budice Apr 06, 08:39

Sat was $60M. projecting -35% drop on Sun. Mario was -39% Antibody Apr 06, 09:05

Mario's Sunday was Easter which is usually a slower day on that weekend. I believe all schools are in session Monday, which won't help. TheWeekendWarrior Apr 06, 09:08

I think we’ll see a little bit of spillover, down 20-25% instead of 30-35% that a normal movie would see. {nm} MattW Apr 06, 12:51

Minecraft is doing what I feared the Emoji Movie might do: ignore actually being quality and just saying "Here!!! Look at me!!!" {nm} milligan Apr 06, 14:53
