Joanna Robinson author of MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios, says Wonderman is all but canceled. Oct 14, 07:15
The quote is "They're trashing the Wonder Man project." Oct 14, 07:19
HBO has a very similar Sam Mendes project called The Franchise greenlit Oct 14, 08:37
even EmpireCity thinks that #TheMarvels will bomb, #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld will do a fraction of other CA movies. Oct 14, 05:20
he also says that he wouldn't be shocked to see Marvel scrap Thunderbolts completely Oct 14, 05:21
But he still predicts that Deadpool 3 will be huge {nm} Oct 14, 05:22
This is just one person's opinion probably with little basis on facts. {nm} Oct 14, 08:43
Surprisingly no mention of Blade since that's been worse off than Thunderbolts. {nm} Oct 14, 07:11
Blade at least is a known brand. I do think reducing "some" projects before Secret Wars is not a totally terrible idea {nm} Oct 14, 07:32
Probably should still do Thunderbolts and I think Armor Wars should do fine, but maybe just make Secret Wars I and II {nm} Oct 14, 07:35
Have Secret Wars I titled Secret Wars and Secret Wars II titled Endgame II. ;P {nm} Oct 14, 11:38
probably should settle with SAG so the cast could do promo i guess {nm} Oct 14, 09:15
How much of pre-sales are there for the second and third weekend? Oct 13, 23:33
DL: Matches his numbers last night lowering to 92 to 105 3 day should hsve official number soon Oct 14, 07:05
updated to estimated $37.8M - that’s before AMC has reported their figures this morning. {nm} Oct 14, 07:46
Dropped low end to 90, but somehow high end went up to 109. {nm} Oct 14, 07:48
The Order is test screening in Pasadena next Thursday Oct 13, 17:55
DL: Despite having a SAG-AFTRA waiver to hold one, Priscilla Red Carpet cancelled over the Israel/Hamas conflict. Oct 13, 15:18
THR: Points towards that being a little bogus, they are moving it because of a IATSE threat to picket at its original venue Oct 13, 15:26
money can come from literally anywhere but box office is only one revenue stream for producers backing a given project {nm} Oct 13, 13:09
Moviesnob is. Oct 13, 13:10
That said, sometimes bombs are just bombs, and a project doesn't turn out how it was hoped it would, that's showbiz. {nm} Oct 13, 13:16
Don't forget about the tax implications. Sometimes a loss is a good thing. {nm} Oct 13, 14:55
That's like .00001 percent of films {nm} Oct 13, 19:05
Whoosh {nm} Oct 13, 19:33
What? He talking about movies that make money by losing money Oct 13, 20:47
No Reference was made to that at all. The Reference was to Utilizing the Loss for Taxation Purposes. {nm} Oct 14, 00:54
The blight of the terminally online morons {nm} Oct 14, 14:17
The Blight of Terminally Online Morons that Pull Numbers Out-Of-The-Air / Out-Of-Their-Butt. {nm} Oct 14, 14:59
Variety: Official confirmation that Best Buy will discontinue Bluray & DVD sales in Early 2024. Oct 13, 12:46
if it was walmart discontinuing sales, that would be news. {nm} Oct 14, 10:24
DL: No one knows anything too early update: Taylor Swift 40-50 million Friday, 107 - 130 million 3 day. Oct 13, 12:37
38.7x - 46.4 multipliers if either come to fruition from Thursday. {nm} Oct 13, 12:39
Point to notfabio from me suggesting 30X was too high ;) {nm} Oct 13, 12:46
Well on the flip side, that was while visions of high-ish single digits Thursday danced in our heads. {nm} Oct 13, 12:47
40-50 million Friday is pretty impressive though. {nm} Oct 13, 12:51
The OW seems like a good short if $130m is the high... would be crazy if it ends up with $120m exact Oct 13, 12:47
This is another one I don't buy the hype, but always let the market run it up; Oct 13, 17:35
My guess at this point is Joker keeps the october OW record. Oct 13, 17:09
Rth says 43-44 for Friday, so maybe not. Oct 13, 20:39
Jatinder just said: Looks like 36M today + 3M previews = 39M for Friday... who will be right tomorrow?? {nm} Oct 13, 21:13
DF: ANYONE BUT YOU pushed to 12/22 Oct 13, 11:57
Give SAG/AMPTP one more week to negotiate. {nm} Oct 13, 11:58
Also avoids fighting for young women who are likely to make WONKA their first choice 12/15 thanks to Chalamet powah!. {nm} Oct 13, 12:13
And serve as counter-programming to AQUM2. Oct 13, 12:51
He's a nice kid, but no idea what they see in him. Oct 13, 12:58
DL: Focus dates LISA FRANKENSTEIN for 2/9/24 (I don't think IT ENDS WITH US was able to complete production) Oct 13, 10:33
Not sure if they have a trailer ready, but would expect one targeting the Marvels/Hunger Games/Poor Things {nm} Oct 13, 10:37
Or maybe a Focus/Universal movie... 5 Nights? :) {nm} Oct 13, 11:33
[LFRNK] Hit Theaters February 9, 2024 Oct 13, 15:53
Hopefully, things are *settled* in no more than two weeks. {nm} Oct 13, 11:29
I didn't think talks would break down (again) the way they did. Oct 13, 11:57
I’m not sure I get the Shawn Levy remark. Lol {nm} Oct 13, 15:46
It's a bad joke... Oct 14, 00:56
Fact is that IATSE is back at the negotiating tables with AMPTP next year... and they do NOT want them striking. Oct 13, 11:18
Disney will never learn their lesson re AI... first the strikes, then The Creator, now this. {nm} Oct 13, 11:43
DL: zoinks scoob. Jatinder was too high 2.8 million for Taylor Swift Oct 13, 07:56
His 3ish was closer than DL's under 5. {nm} Oct 13, 08:05
DanielRPK: Marc Webb to direct Deep Impact remake Oct 13, 06:41
are studios still making enough money from non-original movies that they still haven't been scared off them? {nm} Oct 13, 08:41
They don't make enough money on original ideas {nm} Oct 13, 09:30
I see...that's too bad {nm} Oct 13, 09:44
Now, THAT is funny! {nm} Oct 13, 14:42
Marc's a great guy who I've known many years but he's becoming the poster boy for white men failing upwards. {nm} Oct 13, 12:07
First clip for The Strangers 1 [STRN3] Oct 13, 05:57
DL: AMPAS has now indefinitely postponed their Gala not just the red carpet on Saturday Oct 13, 05:26
ah so A24 sold a piece off to private equity. now the Pivot to IP make sense Oct 12, 21:27
Jatinder: Only 3 millionish for Taylor Swift previews Oct 12, 20:22
Um...50x multiplier? ;) {nm} Oct 12, 20:24
He's expecting only 30X {nm} Oct 12, 20:26
pre-sales for the weekend that sit around $65M {nm} Oct 12, 20:26
So the $100 million number was worldwide? Way to go trades... learn to parse out facts, why don't ya? {nm} Oct 13, 02:27
$100M includes weekend 2, 3 and 4. {nm} Oct 13, 05:48
What about tracking? What about projections? DL still saying $100 million weekend despite the Thursday preview misfire. {nm} Oct 13, 08:18
As long as it makes $100,000,001 million this weekend I'll be happy. Oct 13, 08:39
Also it stalled out at 65 million in presales in the US {nm} Oct 12, 20:26
IW: AMC made Variance notify rival chains of tonights last minute shows. Sales are soft {nm} Oct 12, 20:47
