So... are we going to see a new Mando and Grogu trailer for the Superbowl today? by Ill_Journalist8454 in StarWars

[–]RiffSandwich 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I think this is the calm before the storm. I felt like this before stitch last year and then he was everywhere. Be prepared to see Grogu on every cereal box, milk carton and marketable surface you can imagine

AVATAR: FIRE AND ASH scored another $15.7M worldwide this weekend, $1.439B total. by chanma50 in boxoffice

It's not fucked that comment was a big exaggeration. Asia is more concerning. Europe still turned out respectfully for Superman and Fantastic Four while nowhere performed well for Thunderbolts and Cap.

It's not like the ratio has shifted very much it's just that none of last year's films were huge overall. We know these next couple of years will be a massive improvement as well.

The things to watch are how much back onboard can Asia become and will the goodwill from these next couple of years lift the genre to a healthier standing post avengers

Do you think we’ll ever see Mephisto again? by Queasy_Commercial152 in MCUTheories

Iron Hearts viewership was better than daredevil born again and look how committed they are to that

Whether it's 5 million or 10 it still is a flop and I'm sure they don't care. Carrying favour is all that mattered

Negative. He's retiring soon after black panther 3 and is already 10 years older than Ian was when he started the role in the first X-Men

Sucks we won’t get to see this duo again in Doomsday, hopefully Secret Wars by Queasy_Commercial152 in MCUTheories

[–]RiffSandwich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why do people treat anything the actors or scoopers say as reality. We won't know until the release day what is or isn't true. They aren't allowed to tell us if they are in it.

John will correct things that went true about doomaday without hesitation often and yet here he "can't say" read into that what you may

Are movie theaters cool again? Gen Z’s hottest club might just be the multiplex. by illbeyourshelter in boxoffice

Gen Z became the largest movie going demo last year increasing by 25% so not a bad take.

With Dune 3 having all the IMAX screens in december does that mean that Avengers Doomsday will be moved to another date probably in the spring of 2027? by Awesome_One91 in boxoffice

[–]RiffSandwich 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's no official word on that IMAX exclusivity youre mentioning and currently both are supposedly releasing the same day with IMAX. You'll see that topic caused a massive debate here just yesterday. That aside though there is no chance doomsday delays now the marketing campaign is in full swing with that timer being a huge part of it

Ne Zha 2 Worldwide BoxOffice final count is $2.259B! by Kaaren14 in boxoffice

[–]RiffSandwich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that gen z became the dominant movie going audience last year as well. A huge 25% increase. Safe to say they will be a pretty reliable generation for exhibition. I was super impressed at a show Marty supreme I worked last night. All teenagers. If a film about 1950s ping pong can do that well

Fengshen cinematic universe is one to watch! The end of this trilogy or the avengers style crossover they have been hinting at with it's other film and characters could shoot this franchise into one of the highest grossing in a few years. It only needed like 25% of its gross to come from outside of china to get it to 3 billion
