Saw bumblebee today, theatre was empty, but damn does this movie deserve more money. Best live action transformers movie since the first one.
You mean the first one where there was pissing "gag" involving Bumblebee and John Turturro?

Remember the Nokia phone, Xbox 360 and Mountain Drew machine that get turned into Decepticons?
I remember over the course of the summer, that movie was hyped up to me by my peers in a not-dissimilar way to how The Dark Knight would be the next year so I had pretty high expectations going in and I hated it so much and was pretty much the only person in my school to have that opinion. I hated it so much that I never saw another one.Remember when Michael Bay turned the last act of the film into an incomprehensible military wankfest?
Bumblebee is clearly the best since that first one where Shia's character was an unlikeable, irredeemed douchebag...and he was the one we we were supposed to root for.
Fixed.Bumblebee seems to be what Spielberg had in mind for TF1, just executeddifferentlywell.

And I really liked Bumblebee.

Wan is going to get that Nolan deal over at WB
Any project he wants, no interference
Fast is UniversalPretty sure he had that with Aquaman. He earned that with the Fast 7(?) movie and they make a fortune on the Conjuringverse.
Fast is Universal
And horror while a good return isn't the same as giving a billion dollar franchise
Just hope this makes WB less wary when adapting more obscure DC properties.
Aquaman's second weekend was within 1% of The Last Jedi's third weekend domestically (which was the corresponding weekend last year).
TLJ made about $103M more, so Aquaman needs slightly better legs in January to break 300M domestic.
Aquaman is going to break a billion isn't he
this is the wildest fucking timeline lmao
I think that 1B is looking good. This weekend was 140M worldwide, and there is only 250M left to go.
I can't think of anyway it doesn't? Unless it falls off a cliff this week and weekend.
This weekend was inflated by the holidays, but I am still expecting around 900M by next weekend. Maybe a bit under if I am overestimating weekday holds again.
Yup.tbh I think comic book nerds have a much lower opinion of Aquaman than the general public does (which is to say, they have little to no preconception of Aquaman at all). The whole corny, talks-to-fish, Superfriends caricature is not a version of the character that anyone knows or even remembers outside of comic book circles. So while I prob would not have guessed Aquaman doing a billion, I don't see him as this crazy hard sell for the general moviegoing public either. Clearly audiences are pretty all in on superhero movies now.
With that, what do you think it ends up as in it's entire run?
RT fresh ever helped a movie?It did! Weekend estimates increased from $20.5M to $20.94M! Dat WoM
It worked well in New York, but in Miami it's dead

Thanks bud :) Had to take a step back and do a proper burial for the Divergent Series - it needed all my attention!Good to see that we didn't lose you with the burial of the Divergent series. Welcome back!
It certainly can't hurt it! Like I said in my previous post, if it can get to $400M+ WW, which it should, Paramount would view this as a success and should easily have the leeway available to greenlight Prime!
