Wonder Woman 1984 will be released on HBO Max and in theaters on December 25
- Thread starter Dyl
- Start date
This movie is a one-time write off for the studio in an unprecedented situation to boost subscriber numbers.
It's not a sustainable business model that makes any sense the moment theatres are widely open and safe again.
Damn. Certainly a hell of a subscription seller for HBO Max, but even then, I'm surprised they went that route. Cool.
I love going to the theater to but it will be a long time before I could justify it.
This may be a very clever fake. If you look at the link in Wario64's tweet, it goes here

Don't count on it. They will definitely try and release it on theaters here, theaters won't accept same day digital release and the movie will make more on theaters even during Covid that HBO Portugal makes on subscriptions.
Certainly strange that none of the trades have reported on this yet!This may be a very clever fake. If you look at the link in Wario64's tweet, it goes here

‘Wonder Woman 1984’ Going In Theaters & HBO Max On Christmas Day, Unprecedented For A Superhero Tentpole
I'm hearing from several exhibition sources that Warner Bros. is going with Wonder Woman 1984 on Christmas Day in theaters and on HBO Max, same day.

Now they are? The stealth drop is making things real confusing.
Wait, THR is now:

‘Wonder Woman 1984’ to Debut Both on HBO Max and in Theaters
"Wonder Woman 1984" is heading to HBO Max and movie theaters on the same day.
variety.com
its official. crazy, they will lose money, but i guess this is about as strong as a signup tool as you can have.
Nah I still have the tab open from before it was taken down:
Yeah, sorry for the confusion, group of friends going wild trying to figure out if it was true or not
They fucked up and released early so there was no press release
Pixar movies are around the same level as MCU for the most part, Incredibles 2 wasn't far off Black Panther in box-office even though one was a disappointment and the other was a phenomenon. And I expected Black Widow to be a middling MCU movie. Disney isn't using a Pixar movie to 'test the waters' for Black Widow.
As I said before though, these seem like one off moves to give their streaming numbers a boost.
incredibles 2 and soul are two completely different properties that would probably have a $1b gross gap between them
Well I can't imagine it'd be free on HBO Max. They need people to pay for this.
EDIT - Where are people seeing at no extra cost?
EDIT 2 - Oh, in the image in the OP, duh. I still find that hard to believe.

Wow. It makes me wonder if things will ever be the same in regards to movies and theaters. I used to think theaters would bounce back in some form, but if more and more studios are fine with this, then consumers are going to expect it to be the norm.
Nah. Inside Out is probably the closest comparator to Soul and it made over 800mil.
this is obviously to boost MAX #s which are waaaay weaker than they want
but even still, who the fuck knows when theaters will be "safe" (maybe summer?) and the gross ceilings are likely permanently damaged
also nobody is gonna want to be TENET 2 and release the film too early, that's gonna be a fun game of chicken to watch

That's awesome. It's a shame that HBO Max isn't doing 4K/HDR... I hope they get with the program soon enough.

I haven't read the articles yet, but the privatized video said at no extra cost for US subscribers in both the ending splash screen and in the description (see OP).
(If good) Soul would be right up there with Inside Out/Coco as far as potential earnings go( Both made over 800 million). Plus its a Pixar movie with a black lead. I know a ton of people who would have come out to support that who don't usually see animated films.
