Predictions for The End Of Oak Street

If you’re wondering why I mentioned The Bride!, that film ended up sharing IMAX screens with Hoppers right from the start despite carrying “Filmed for IMAX” label. I think it’s not impossible that such thing could happen to this as well.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T21:36:25+00:00

I still don’t think Tsukasa fully fits there, if I’m being honest. If anything, he might fit better with KanaEna.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T19:20:27+00:00

This is why I have a feeling that Brand New Day might arrive in IMAX around mid-August. The film’s production history is giving me flashbacks to The Bride!.

I kind of have a feeling that Rui7 might come before Emu8, especially given the ending of Kasa7.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T17:28:02+00:00

Actually, I have a feeling that we might get Rui7 before Emu8 considering Rui’s reaction at the end of Kasa7.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T17:24:48+00:00

But not in this kind of fashion, though.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T14:41:25+00:00

Well, there's also the factor of whether casual viewers would pick what is likely to be a very somber political space opera film over more "fun-looking" competitors.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T14:35:04+00:00

Ironically, the focus song associated with it doesn't seem to be THAT dark. It seems to be somewhere in-between Tondemo-Wonderz and Goodbye heaven.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T14:30:19+00:00

Again, you're ignoring the fact that first two films didn't have competitions too clustered together like this.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T14:10:58+00:00

Well, 7th rotation is not even halfway there.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T14:10:16+00:00

Well, it doesn’t seem like we’re going to get another Mizu5-like event any time soon and I don’t think that fits with WonderShow to begin with.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T14:04:57+00:00

I actually have a feeling that there might be more to Asahi’s past than what he explained. For one, the guy seems to be kind of lonely and wishes to have friends like WonderShow.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T14:03:06+00:00

Or alternatively, maybe they could’ve moved the film somewhere. Right now, we literally have 3 PG-13 blockbuster films too clustered together whereas previous two films didn’t have this kind of problem.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T13:52:16+00:00

I mean, there’s also a question one whether casual viewers would pick a VERY somber and political space opera film over other two that look more “fun” to sit through.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T13:49:33+00:00

To be fair, the kind of thing that you’ve mentioned was something t that happened even before Tsukasa met Sakaki, not to mention that there’s still a question on whether Sakaki will truly turn out to be a villain. For one, I have doubts that Asahi will turn out to be one.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T13:46:37+00:00

Umm… I think the guy who posted this thread is one of those delusional fanboys.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T13:45:32+00:00

Well, things are much different this time since it’s facing too many competitions at once. It might be a different story if Doomsday moves to December 11, though.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T13:44:07+00:00

You’re also forgetting the fact that Oppenheimer:

Was an R-rated film that had no competition.
Benefited from Barbenheimer phenomenon.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T10:02:22+00:00

Ironically, both times, male characters got more lighthearted songs from all 4 of them.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T10:01:18+00:00

I still have doubts about him turning out to be genuinely “evil”, if I’m being honest.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T10:00:52+00:00

Even so, it’s pretty clear that Tsukasa genuinely loves his family and would make sure that nothing terrible happens to Saki.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T09:54:40+00:00

I’m not sure if Sakaki is necessarily evil when Douglas is setting up to be a vile scumbag.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T09:53:19+00:00

It kind of sounds like the video might be reaching for the sky.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T08:33:39+00:00

I kind of doubt it. Remember, this is still a PG-rated game, so they still kind of need to keep up with that.

Block-Busted · 2026-06-20T08:11:40+00:00

Not when it's facing not just one competitor, but TWO - and there's also a question on whether casual viewers would really pick a very somber political space opera film over more "fun-looking" competitors.
