  1. The results of a late July poll on moviegoing confidence levels were alarming. The National Research Group survey, closely watched by studios, showed that the overall comfort level had tumbled from a pandemic-era high of 81 percent to 72 percent in the span of just three weeks amid the delta variant. Moms appeared to be the most concerned about taking a trip to the multiplex, with their comfort index tumbling from 75 percent to 59 percent.
  2. interested to see the BO battle this weekend: a re-surging pandemic vs a highly rated movie targeted at an age demographic that doesn't seem to care about the former. over/under $55MM?
  3. the D+ # you are using is first weekend only, through the second weekend based on Samba data the # was $109 million. And no way is Disney getting 75% of the rake from theaters, 50-55% when you factor in int'l is much more reasonable. The P&A has to be $125 million at a minimum. Bottom line is roughly the same tho; $ loser before ancilliaries.
  4. Disney average annual return to investors (excluding divs) since acquisition of Marvel = 18% AT&T average annual return to investors (excluding divs) from purchase to divestiture of WB = 0%
  5. wow, that looks absolutely horrible. I guess there's an audience for this garbage but it ain't me.
