Bosco685 Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 Interesting video about Harley Quinn and Birds of Prey. And it definitely demonstrates that age and gender focus that helped make these titles explode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted February 4, 2020 Author Share Posted February 4, 2020 Quote In expanding to the deeper parts of its DC universe, Warner Bros. is launching Suicide Squad spinoff Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn this weekend, repping the comic book label’s continued march into R-rated fare post Joker and Watchmen, with a projected worldwide start between $110M-$125M; a take which is just under DC’s $158.6M WW opening of Shazam last April. Birds of Prey follows DC femme heroes Black Canary, Huntress and Renee Montoya who team with once-upon-a-time bad girl Harley Quinn to save a young child from an evil crime lord. Despite Suicide Squad being an ensemble movie, few can argue that it was Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn who carried that film and made it the commercial success that it was. Abroad, the DC villains movie had Will Smith working in its favor. It will be interesting to see in the wake of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, if Robbie’s star power can assist in over-indexing Birds of Prey‘s projections here even if Rotten Tomatoes scores come in low. DC fare has typically bucked their RT scores in regards to opening ticket results with Batman v. Superman earning $166M stateside in its first weekend (off 28%) and Suicide Squad debuting to an August domestic record of $133.6M (off 27%). Birds of Prey is the only wide entry of the weekend with nothing in its path. We’re told at this point in time that Birds of Prey‘s global start should be fine for ultimately profiting off its gross $97.1M production cost (net $84.5M after $12.6M California tax credits). Previews stateside start Thursday at 6PM with full Friday play at 4,200-plus locations, further buffed by PLFs, Dolby Cinema, 4DX Motion Seats and Imax formats with an eye on a 3-day of $50M-$55M. On the high-end, Birds of Prey is primed to be the 10th highest opening in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted February 5, 2020 Author Share Posted February 5, 2020 Not going out of my way for it. But so far, this sounds like a trainwreck. Where's the commitment to the larger franchise and stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
▫️ Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Wow these reviews do not seem to connect with what I’ve seen in the trailers so maybe I’m missing the picture. I’ll give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll give it a shot. Sometimes surprises come in twos. Joker: There's no market for this film other than incel domestic types who only go out alone. Birds of Prey: A bunch of girls? The costumes don't even match the comic books. Ugh! And, it has a bunch of girls. Yuck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
