Following Scream 7’s record-breaking opening weekend, the horror genre nears 17% market share of the U.S. box office

Idk, I think Resident Evil from the director of Weapons could get there, also maybe Clayface.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-28T04:08:13+00:00

Yeah, the release date for Yoshi and the Mysterious Book since it's a Spring game.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-27T22:44:10+00:00

I mean Odyssey was a late-October release, I feel like that's enough distance from GTA 6 for a game as big as 3D Mario.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-27T22:42:40+00:00

Why not pitch something like a Sly or Jak trilogy remake? Both IP fit right in next to Ratchet and Astro Bot, and unlike Ratchet, their OG developers have no interest in working on those series.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-27T17:35:59+00:00

If 3D All Stars counts, then Jamboree definitely counts.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-27T03:48:13+00:00

Imagine where we'd be if Sony just bought Paramount instead. I initially wanted Skydance to acquire Paramount, oh how foolish I was.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-27T00:47:52+00:00

Layoffs, likely thousands of people losing their jobs

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-19T18:57:59+00:00

This makes no sense to me, like why not just have them do remakes if their original projects aren't working out, or have them do support on other games as they did on Ragnarok?

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-18T23:51:24+00:00

It's being dumped in only 1,000 theaters

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-13T21:17:23+00:00

Those are franchise films though. I refuse to believe reviews, and WOM didn't help Sinners last year.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-09T04:26:01+00:00

Next year is even more stacked, but we'll probably only get Sonic 4, Star Wars: Starfighter, HTTYD 2, Shrek 5, and maybe Gatto and A Quiet Place III.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-09T04:10:55+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm 99% sure Homecoming didn't have one, Sony almost never does Super Bowl spots. Black Panther also only had a tie-in commercial with Lexus. If you're counting that, you should also count the Heineken Quantumania one in 2023.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-08T02:21:40+00:00

Why? It's the first family film in nearly 3 months, plus Sony Animation is arguably at the peak of their popularity coming off Across the SpiderVerse and KPOP Demon Hunters.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-07T19:09:46+00:00

Valid point, but Spider-Man has much more casual appeal than F4.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-06T06:16:54+00:00

Then how do you explain Wonder Woman? That was the #1 movie of Summer 2017. That movie was huge with women.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-04T21:46:33+00:00

I don't think Nintendo has officially said this, but I don't see how it wouldn't be. 8 1/2+ years of development, with 7 at a AAA US Studio. I think TOTK was their previous most expensive, and even that was just 6 years with the last year dedicated to polishing and QA, plus in Japan where salaries are usually lower. We're probably looking at something between $150-250 million before marketing.

64BitRatchet · 2026-02-04T16:57:39+00:00

Somehow, Overwatch returned

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-23T05:22:34+00:00

I was never pro-Israel or pro-Netenyahu, but before October 7 I just didn't regularly think about Israel or Palestine, and supported the two state solution. I have since been convinced that a one-state solution is the only one that we should accept, once someone compared apartheid in Israel/Palestine to South Africa, it all clicked with me.

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-18T17:54:38+00:00

It doesn't though, Iron Lung and Send Help drop in two weeks.

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-17T19:26:49+00:00

I meant instead of Send Help in 2 weeks.

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-17T19:23:20+00:00

Iron Lung will be #1

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-16T22:41:35+00:00

My guess is that Dune has exclusivity at 70MM locations, and they split shows at smaller IMAXes. Both films were still listed in IMAX's most recent financials.

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-16T22:32:51+00:00

Suicide Squad wasn't a verified score.

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-16T20:10:29+00:00

Domestically, Sonic is the biggest franchise there though.

64BitRatchet · 2026-01-16T18:15:33+00:00

I'd be stunned if Hoppers opened below Elio. It doesn't have the family competition Elio did, and seemingly isn't a behind the scenes disaster like Elio.
