I only saw 7 opening night in theaters, so curious how it is on the marathon watch leading up to Hobbs and Shaw. Did Tokyo Drift and Fast & Furious today. Tomorrow gonna double feature Fast Five and Six. Curious how 7 plays after some distance, but I remember thinking outside of the ending it wasn't as strong as 5 and 6, but still a fucking miracle the film came out as well as it did considering the circumstances in which it was shot.

I wonder how they'll explain 9 with Mia in it without Paul 😢😔

Also, the trailer for 9 will definitely be even more bonkers than Hobbs & Shaw I feel.

Is Dune going to be part of a saga/universe or is it expected to be a single movie?

Because there are a lot of books...

I wonder how Paul would have felt about the whole rock situation.

I'm still excited for Hobbs and Shaw and it's a day 1 for me but I'm not a fan of how Rock went about everything.

It was pretty weird actually. She made some comments about how she wanted the woman roles to change and then he had his arm around and was kissing her head as she praised the franchise in a sort of...apology? I dunno it was weird
Dont remember that one. I know he made a video talking about pitching a female spin off for the franchise to Universal.

once upon a time in hollywood currently sitting at 92%

for comparison with other tarantino movies:

Pulp Fiction - 92%

True Romance - 92%

Reservoir Dogs - 91%

Inglourious Basterds - 88%

Jackie Brown - 87%

Django Unchained - 86%

Kill Bill (Vols 1 & 2) - Both 84%

The Hateful Eight - 74%

Death Proof - 65%

There's no goddamn good reason for Inglorious Basterds or either Volume of Kill Bill to be below 90%.

Toy story 4 has a phenomenal opening weekend in Japan

01 (---) ¥1,377,000,000 ($12.7 million), 0, ¥2,440,073,000 ($22.6 million), Toy Story 4 (Disney) NEW
02 (---) ¥553,000,000 ($5.1 million), 0, ¥913,873,000 ($8.5 million), Pokemon: Mewtwo Strikes Back - Evolution (Toho) NEW
03 (01) ¥491,071,500 ($4.5 million), -30%, ¥9,843,940,700 ($90.7 million), Aladdin (Disney) WK6
04 (02) ¥229,105,400 ($2.1 million), -42%, ¥2,470,646,000 ($22.8 million), Spider-Man: Far From Home (Sony) WK3

The fourth entry in the Pixar franchise sold a remarkable 1,031,000 admissions (first imported animated film to do this) over the weekend frame across 556 screens. Further, it sold an astounding 1,850,000 admissions over its long 4-day Marine Day Holiday Weekend (Fri.-Mon.). The film is going to exceed the ¥10 billion ($90 million+) uber-blockbuster milestone without much effort, and should be on track for a ¥12/13 billion ($110-120 million) total.

Did someone ask for a chart? Because here is a chart.

The stars have aligned and we only need 4 Billion from the 4 remaining films now. Maleficent is probably not going to make that Billion, but it has the remaining money to be made on Endgame, Aladdin and Toy Story 4 to help pick up the slack on it.

Also, Fun Fact: With Dark Phoenix being, well., the Cinematic Equivalent of this.



This means that Alita: Battle Angel is probably going to be Fox's highest grossing film of the year.

Unless Spies in Disguise really breaks out that is.

That was Blue Sky's reaction when they realised Spies in Disguise got push backed to December, One Week after Star Wars Episode IX.

400M resting between TS4 and Aladdin, and 3'6B for Lion King, Frozen 2 and Star Wars

Speaking of F&F franchise, it's weird how the 4th movie is super low key when that was the movie where they start building up towards what it is in Fast 5.
Whenever there's a F&F marathon on tv here in asia, they always skip the 4th movie.
