Will make budget back opening day. Will make more OW than the entire run total of any entry in the series.
What a disaster.
I don't think there is any universe in which Bad Times is a hit unless it was directed by someone with a very faithful audience like the Coens or Tarantino. It's totally a movie that develops a nice devoted following and reputation as people watch it at home.
I'd agree. It's a damn fine B flick that just won't find an audience via theatres in this day and age. I'm hoping people discover this movie once it moves into the direct to streaming realm, it's put together pretty well and features some great performances from some previously unknown actors (Cynthia Erivo, Lewis Pullman).
Kinda surprised box office put early estimation of spider verse around 17-27m almost same as mortal engines. Way too low
I think it has potential to breakout to 100m

I don't expect Spiderverse to get anywhere near $100m, but $17-$27m definitely seems too low.
I need help, BoxOfficeEra. I work all weekend so I am going to treat myself to a movie tonight. Do I go First Man or Venom? (I've already seen A Star is Born). I'm not super interested in NASA or the moon landing or shit like that, but I love me some prestige awards movies. And I'm not really into superheroes, either, but I'm oddly curious about experiencing Venom, if that makes any sense.
Yeah, I don't see it going anywhere near 100m, but I do think they're a little low on it.
Interested to see where tracking lands on Bumblebee and Aquaman.

boxoffice.com aren't great with animations, they also did a pretty poor job with Venom (which is currently $15M ahead of their final long range total)

Spider-Verse is doing significantly better than Lego Batman on the front of trailer views. I'm guessing maybe a $60m OW or higher for the former. The battle between it and Aquaman will be interesting.
Tom Hardy puts the movie on his back and goes all out with some Face/Off Nic Cage level acting. All of his interactions with the symbiote are the best parts of the film.
I was thinking 40-60 (closer to 60 though?), but maybe the movies hype has died down a bit. I feel like the first trailer was the best at selling the movie to the audiences, frankly.
Edit: meant to say 60 mb
If you told this to someone last year around this same time, they'd have you institutionalised with cause lol.
Sinister Six will be Venom Hardy split in 5 personality and Carnage.
You say that like it will be a bad thing . 5 different Tom Hardy accents and Woody Harrelson in a red wig sounds like something world needs, nay. Deserves!
So Hate You Give has an A+ CinemaScore, but with a 5.9 imdB and 65% RottenTomatoes audience score.
Hmm, I wonder what the culprit is. So mystifying.

Illumination drowns people with adverts and merchandising to make sure people are aware the film is coming out. I swear they put more effort in advertising than they do actually making the film. It's going to be quite big because people still like Illumination despite their films never rising above mediocre, and can sometimes hit downright terrible (The Lorax for example). But legs will be the interesting one. Obviously being christmas focused it'll have that relevance going into December. But it's going to be competing with Ralph a few weeks after launch which has all of the disney princesses, and that general very good disney quality going for it as well. We'll see. I'm not rooting for this film myself.
This poster though:
Reminds me a little too much of a certain other poster.
I thought this. This film seemed similar to Suicide squad in appeal so I was expecting similar even if slightly less WW box office.
Kids love Venom.
The new Halloween film is disappointing...
The only one who can save us from the Venom menace
It looks like Venom is going to end up with suicide squad's numbers
Surprised at the Halloween budget. Would have thought JLC would get half that just for the role. Is she getting a big back end cut (I know she is a credited EP on the film)?
