  1. The Eternals has passed an MCU movie at the US BO (Incredible Hulk); this will be the first and the last
  2. absolutely awful; near zero chance it catches F9 in US at this rate - the CinemaScore has spoken. On similar earthward plummeting trajectory as Thor:DW; final US guess (fittingly) $166.6M
  3. pretty sure some of the artwork made it into the end credits (but take that with a grain of salt, saw it when it came out)
  4. using this as a yardstick then BW was the biggest hit of the pandemic since it resulted in Feige becoming Scar-Jo's eunuch
  5. 10% behind Dune's preview #, yet 25% behind opening weekend? i don't think so. even matching Dune's 8x multiple gets you to $36MM (and GA not available on streaming). even with terrible Metacritic & RT scores, $40MM wouldn't be surprising. HSX & Box Office Pro both guessing $45MM.
  6. $1.3M Thursday, down a slim 80% vs Veteran's Day; sinking faster in the US than a corpse wrapped in chains
  7. Why Christopher Nolan’s $100 Million WWII Drama ‘Oppenheimer’ Could Be the Last of Its Kind https://variety.com/2021/film/news/christopher-nolan-oppenheimer-ww2-movie-1235109373/
  8. still hasn't been released in countries which accounted for $60MM in Venom BO (forget about China); this is going past $500MM WW
  9. definition of 'hit' seems to be the issue
  10. trying to distract from, i've seen better legs on a table
  11. critics after watching Eternals the same critics after watching Shang-Chi
  12. Bohemian Rhapsody screenwriter Anthony McCarten has filed a breach of contract suit against Graham King and his GK Films for money owed on the 2018 Best Picture-nominated film about Queen and its iconic singer Freddie Mercury. The lawsuit hit today and shows a fascinating peek behind the curtain that shows what happens when participants rely on studio net point deals. The $55 million budget film grossed $911 million worldwide, and yet according to accounting statements issued by Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, Bohemian Rhapsody is in the red, to the tune of $51 million.
  13. the false buzz on this after CinemaCon was epic
  14. the CB movie currently in theaters that people are choosing to see
  15. Bond is going to finish w/ $60MM in China, so it'll beat S-C by $250MM+ elsewhere; that's a quarter of a billion in case you're having trouble with the math
  16. and $290MM behind F9 & $278MM and counting behind Bond worldwide- or do they not count?
