NewsWeek: More rando Sound of Freedom screening complaints. notfabio Jul 14, 13:03

It sounds like one of the theatres just played the descriptive audio version by mistake and don't have a traditional booth. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 13:04

One showing doesn't make it a vast conspiracy. {nm} Antibody Jul 14, 13:08

This kind of stuff happens all the time with screenings, from what I would imagine there's a couple of reasons behind it (non-conspiracy) notfabio Jul 14, 13:24

and the distributor said there's no conspiracy. {nm} Moviesnob Jul 14, 14:03

Only because they are behind the Conspiracy!!! :P {nm} DTravel Jul 14, 19:24

Separately he has said SAG brought in AI experts to discuss concerns SAG had and studios blew them off, didn't ask them questions. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 11:26

Blowing off experts. Where have we seen that before? {nm} Jay_Beezy Jul 14, 15:31

DL: RED ONE is suspiciously absent from Amazon Prime Video rest of 2023 Video. Eddie Murphy's Candy Cane Lane is December notfabio Jul 14, 10:07

Either absent because theatrical and or absent because it is being pushed to Holiday Season 2024 is my guess. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 10:08

A Million Miles Away and Tyler Perry's Black White & Blue shown in the video. notfabio Jul 14, 10:12

Jeff Sneider previously heard that Amazon wasn’t happy with how the movie was coming together. {nm} Jay_Beezy Jul 14, 10:37

What if Red One is getting the Batgirl treatment? *Flushed Face* *Grimacing Face* {nm} Jay_Beezy Jul 14, 10:50

I'm leaning towards a push to 2024 if strike =Fall, too many cross promotional tie ins to risk Dwayne Johnson not being able to promote it. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 10:56

V: ‘Deadpool 3’ Stops Production Due to SAG-AFTRA Strike (who's gonna take its release date?) Antibody Jul 14, 07:25

Captain America Brave New World is wrapped, so if they really had to, they could just swap it back. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 07:32

I think they just wanted a sure-fire 175+ million opener to start Summer and DEAD3 is a safer bet than CAPT4 even if R {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 07:35

Otherwise I would move SNOW WHITE from March to May and possibly swap APES to early May, but unsure APES is a huge opener. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 07:36

One of MMAX5 or APES4 will move off May 24 {nm} Antibody Jul 14, 07:37

Also, IMAX is definitely going to give George Miller their screens Memorial Day Weekend if he stays, they love him. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 07:40

Who would have thought in January the box office stories of Summer would be Barbie and Sound of Freedom? {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 06:51

No one, SoF didnt even IPO until late April.. probably upset Summer PickEm {nm} Baron_Darcon2023 Jul 14, 08:10

It IPO'd 2 weeks after announcement, which is asap on how the IPO calendar is set in advance Antibody Jul 14, 08:21

Please don't IPO Angel Studios next film Shift at $50.00 or something. :) Guess the trailer was officially released last week. notfabio Jul 14, 08:49

Their trailer says December 2023, they moved it up from January 2024. {nm} notfabio Jul 14, 08:50

even Libs of Tik Tok has discovered these "sellouts" are not actually being attended by live bodies my mate paul Jul 14, 08:58

cope. the PIF tickets don't count till claimed and we all see the strong daily numbers {nm} Fitch3k Jul 14, 09:08

If a tix is sold, the theater reports it as sold. {nm} Antibody Jul 14, 09:10

Angel Studios is keeping the money from unclaimed tix, not refunding them to theaters. Antibody Jul 14, 09:18

ha there it is {nm} my mate paul Jul 14, 09:23

they still pay film rental on them. The issue if the theaters are really empty is not box office Moviesnob Jul 14, 09:31

they also allocate screens to movies based on pre-sales. It wont be an issue until next week as both INDY and MI7 were/are way overbooked {nm} Moviesnob Jul 14, 09:33

if theaters get their cut, that’s great. but “gift a ticket to your friend with this QR code” seems vulnerable to all kinds of stat juking my mate paul Jul 14, 09:48

(even fully conceding there is a big ginned-up market for this fantasy) {nm} my mate paul Jul 14, 09:49

welcome to 2023. We live in a post truth world. The truth is whatever you click in your echo chamber. Moviesnob Jul 14, 09:57

well, you believe the germans bombed pearl harbor! Moviesnob Jul 14, 11:02

Heh. I used to work in bookstores back in the 80s. Every month or so someone would come in and buy up most of our copies of Dianetics. " Antibody Jul 14, 09:09

A manager I used to work with claimed when they were at El Capitan in the 80's-90's Disney would send someone to buy out unsold tickets. notfabio Jul 14, 09:13

if these findings are significant enough, is there something worth investigating here? {nm} tealfan Jul 14, 09:24

if i were as conspiracy minded as that crowd i might think it was even a money laundering scheme back to the prod co {nm} my mate paul Jul 14, 09:30

whats to investigate? a sold ticket is a sold ticket. Like I said the chains will hold it against the studio if its true Moviesnob Jul 14, 09:36

If the theater chains get their money, what do they care? If theaters don't get money and are allotting screens due to false demand... {nm} JayPrimetown Jul 14, 09:55

It impacts their labor (over staffing) and hurts their F&B which screws with their margin which is more important than revenue Moviesnob Jul 14, 09:59

five-minute Oppenheimer "preview" (more like a supersized trailer than a full scene) my mate paul Jul 13, 22:46

fwiw, BO Pro has upped their BARBI OW forecast by 32% to $115m - $155m. OPHMR up 3% to $48m - $57m tomcat90 Jul 13, 17:47

If BARBI ends up good, it will hook up with OPHMR and MISS7 and will have box offce legs all thru rest of July, August, and up to Labor Day {nm} VictorY Jul 13, 21:21
