going to be a slow crawl towards Venom's US total; don't know if it can get there, probably just shy

AQP2 & Venom 2; must've gone to the non-profit University of Atlantis for your CFA

will be in Pasco in Feb

too much turkey? The first episode of Marvel’s Hawkeye on Disney+ drew 1.5M U.S. households over the Wednesday-Sunday holiday stretch, while 1.3M stuck around and watched the second episode. This is according to the latest streaming viewership stats from Samba TV which measures 3M U.S. households, and what they watch on streaming over a five-minute increment. That first episode number for Hawkeye trails the 5-day U.S. household viewership figure for Disney+/Marvel’s Loki which was watched by 2.5M homes over June 9-13 by -40%. Hawkeye‘s first episode premiere also ranks behind Loki‘s finale which pulled in 1.9M homes over five days per Samba TV. Hawkeye‘s 5-day is also behind the 3-day premieres of Disney+/Marvel’s Falcon and the Winter Solider (1.8M) and WandaVision (1.6M).

Due to pandemic + retirement, i've watched/re-watched 200+ movies in the past 20 months; the only CBM i've seen (to my regret) is TSS; have not been tempted to watch or re-watch any other.

there is no way to spin Eternals other than that it's a critical and financial flop.

US on target this weekend: , only positive going forward is that there's nothing until S-M but Int'l was weak (this is the only tentpole that's consistently had estimates lowered this fall unlike: NTTD, Dune, Venom)- the audience has spoken

'complete and total write-offs' - that was your post, go back and edit it for accuracy and/or sanity

so they're writing off the entire amount; brilliant. there's actually zero revenue to offset the production budget & P&A. pick up your CFA certificate at the door- comes with a signed poster of Jason Momoa admitting Aquaman made no profit.

BW maybe because of the $125 million Disney+ but Eternals won't eke out a profit until the 10 millionth DVD is sold out of the $1 bin at Circuit City

Japan December 3

been consistently running 19% behind Thor: Dark World; sticking with my $166.6M US finish

thought this only happened w/ the MCU

another $330K in the bank (+24% vs last Wed); lost a ton of theaters but should near $210MM US by the end of the weekend ($3.5MM from Venom's US total)

title is cringe inducing, makes me want to sing Moon River

they've won the subs game, now they have to a make sure they win the churn game

Holiday week kicks in +50% Monday, the assault on venom’s US total continues

even int'l wasn't good this weekend; no legs whatsoever

should be within $4MM by end of next weekend; has a real shot

$206.5MM, countdown to Venom $7MM
