DL: Walking back their 200 million projection, $160-170 million for DEAD3 notfabio Jul 23, 09:09

From article: "Advance ticket sales are $35M, 30% behind Doctor Strange 2 and 5% behind Wakanda Forever" {nm} RamsFan2004 Jul 23, 09:17

That's worse than before, it wa 15% behind DRST2. Antibody Jul 23, 09:59

Just imagine had this NOT had Wolverine. Might have had trouble clearing 100 million {nm} notfabio Jul 23, 10:11

Though perhaps GOTG3 is a closer "worst case" without Wolverine. Had they left CAP4, could have been even worse. {nm} notfabio Jul 23, 10:16

Fandango is only saying best pre-orders of 2024. Antibody Jul 23, 10:44

Damn... if only the founder of Fandango waited a few days to hear the good news... {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 23, 12:17

That's a big help. DRST2 opening $187.4 million, Black Panther 2 $181.3 million {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 23, 12:21

that $200M was from Quorum Antibody Jul 23, 09:50

Back in May, the industry was annoyed that this film was bumped due to the strikes. Now, 160m is being looked at as a disappointment? Moviesnob Jul 23, 10:48

this is exactly why studios want to control the press that comes with tracking now {nm} Moviesnob Jul 23, 10:49

Studios just want to control the press in general. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jul 23, 12:18

When you go from 2-3 MCU releases a year, to one and address the glut issue, and you have the year to year comp of Barbie/Oppenheimer.... notfabio Jul 23, 11:16

But yes, this is exactly why studios try to manage tracking/expectations and Universal hides tracking when they are worried. {nm} notfabio Jul 23, 11:17

I think it's hard for almost all people to divorce their personal feelings from film distribution {nm} Moviesnob Jul 23, 12:07

They are going back to 2-3 movies a year {nm} Moviesnob Jul 23, 11:21

Current best R-Rated weekend of all time is $132m (original DEADPOOL)... wolfiemozart Jul 23, 15:15
