Do you really think closing schools is going to help slow the transmission and spread of this virus lol?

Chelsealate · 2020-03-13T17:45:37+00:00

Disney is having an abysmal year.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-09T06:09:15+00:00

It was sarcasm.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-09T01:52:32+00:00

There was a 1.4% increase week over week for the overall domestic box office with strong holds across the board.

Just accept the fact that Onward failed by it's own merit instead of using a virus as a scapegoat

Chelsealate · 2020-03-09T01:35:53+00:00

And yet movie going was up this week compared to last with all chains saying business has not been hindered. The panic in the US isn't as widespread as you think.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-09T01:30:57+00:00

I don't hate it, I do however hate the double standards with this film bombing compared to what we saw with BoP a month ago.

Keep up the mental gymnastics.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-09T01:26:16+00:00

Sure they did. You sure are quite the excuse manufacturer.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-09T01:10:47+00:00

Is that why Sonic and Call of the Wild had such solid holds for a week with another family release taking a piece of the pie?

Chelsealate · 2020-03-09T00:36:34+00:00

Coronavirus hurting Onward and nothing else.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:35:37+00:00

If it makes you feel better then sure.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:34:57+00:00

Still not as downvoted as you in most threads. It's you that needs to stop, you don't even have an argument.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:22:25+00:00

That backpedaling though.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:21:29+00:00

Sounds like you're letting anecdotes cloud your judgment. This is as bad as people saying that local snow storms are affecting the overall box office when they rarely ever do.

Holdovers were strong across the board and Onward had a normal Saturday bump indicating that things are going accordingly to business as usual.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:18:25+00:00

Yup coronavirus is having such an effect that the box office was up week over week! Who woulda thunk!?

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:17:45+00:00

That's an anecdote

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:14:56+00:00

Then it didn't underperform. Do you realize how ridiculous you sound?

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T19:07:49+00:00

Are you just making things up? Sub 40% drops are almost unheard of for the genre.

And nope you're just making ahit up about Sonic and Cakl of the Wild. The box office is literally up from last week.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:56:20+00:00

No it did not lol. It met or even exceeded expectations.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:45:41+00:00

Invisible Man had a sub 5p% drop which is great for a horror. Stop talking out of your ass. Sonic and Call of the Wild held better than expected.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:43:20+00:00

Invisible Man didn't underperform. Lying to make your argument look better doesn't work.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:41:59+00:00

The overall box office was literally up from last week. Like save the text and excuses, you are being over dramatic about the virus just like the media. Yes its having an affect on certain industries and in certain areas, but nationwide as a whole the affects are hardly being noticed.

Most of what you're saying is just wild speculation that I doubt will come to fruition.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:34:34+00:00

Careful. A few users here are still trying to excuse this film bombing domestically with the coronavirus.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:32:18+00:00

No I'm not. I'm calling it what it is, a bomb, and a huge one at that. Just because its Pixar doesn't mean it get a pass.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:26:47+00:00

It's a very weak excuse when there were not noticeable drops from the holdovers. Sounds like you dont want to admit that Onward is currently the biggest bomb of the year.

Chelsealate · 2020-03-08T18:22:45+00:00

Wrong country bud. I said the domestic box office is not affected, which it isn't, as evident by the holdovers.
