Saw the movie yesterday, I had fun. It basically comes down to if you liked or had fun with the first 2 movies, you will probably enjoy this one aswell. Third act of the movie was probably the best part and Tom Hardy is always fun to watch playing both Eddie and Venom. Also Venom 2 did not get a china release hence the lower worldwide box office compared to the first one which made 269 milion there. Venom 3 is currently tracking to make between 40-50 milion opening weekend in china.

I think the venom movies have run their course. they are dumb fun, but the audiance is no longer showing up to superhero movies in big number, unless they are must see events with well liked characters (batman, deadpool spiderman) Venom 1 did well due to china coming out during the peak of the superhero movie craze (2018) . Venom 2 did not does as well worldwide due almost no busienss in china but did well in the US due to being one of the first superhero movies coming out after the pandemic (+ there was still a lot of goodwill for this genre in 2021).

Well on a positive note this movie will have the highest opening weekend for a Sony Spider-Man adjacent universe movie since Venom 2. Not like that's saying much of course.

This is what happens when you keep flogging a dead horse, it also doesn't help they made Venom "Family Friendly".

An awful movie made by a bunch of incompetent hacks.

Venom 2 was so horrible, that I am in no rush to see this movie. Also the Venom movies have horrible C.G. In the action scenes.

I don’t think that Venom 3 will do well at the box office. The Venom franchise is one that is fun, I have only seen the first one and I had fun with that one, but it seems to just be the same thing again and again. Twice, making money was able to work, but I don’t think that will translate into profit a third time. I think people are just tired of Venon movies being the exact same thing three times in a row.

I heard that the movie is not that bad... But I think people are getting tired of watching the same thing over and over!

Love Tom Hardy and the character of venom. But without Peter Parker/Spider-Man these movies are dead on arrival

I noticed a certain clown movie not popping up in the top 10

Sony tried and failed to create their own cinematic universe thru Spider-Man alone. Trying to copy what Marvel did and this is the results.

No surprise. 2nd movie was "meh" first was dumb fun. That's all a Venom movie should be no reason for a 2nd, and definitely not a 3rd. Not everything needs a reboot/sequel!! So tired of this. I actually like Tom Hardy but I hope this tanks

Better or worse than Madam Web? Even I thought it was a stinker

Thoughts?

💯 on your take on James Gunn! I love Guardians 1 but didn’t care as much on Part 2 and didn’t even watch 3 Didn’t care for his Suicide Squad at all! I know most people like it at the very least but not my cuppa tea

Meg 3...Kill me now!

Sadly, Joker 2 looks like it'll break the $200M worldwide barrier, though not by that much (it'll probably top out at around $210M - $215M). On the upside, The Wild Robot looks like word of mouth will make it profitable by the end of its run. Given how well it has done in Australia to date compared to its opening weekend there, I suspect it will have a good run here in the UK as well (mainstream films tend to do about 2 - 2.5x as much box office business here as in Australia, approximately in proportion to the difference in population), as they've given it a fair wind by opening it just as most schools are on half term holiday. That should add at least another $18M - $25M to the global total, possibly more if there's not much competition.

It looks like Terrifier 3 has a chance of beating joker (at least domestically)

It's really wild that Terrifier 3 only has a budget of $2M. I know there don't really have much of a crew, but just how much are the stars (Laruen and David) making?? And Chris Jericho has a cameo in the movie as well, surely that would be at least $50k..

Got the chance to watch The Wild Robot during the week. Really good movie. Its the much better animated movie compared to TF One.

$195 million for wild robot to break even? How's that possible? It cost $80 million to produce Plus at least another $40 million to market. That's 120 million. Breaking even by doubling marketing and production costs would have it at 240 million to make a penny profit. And this is not even including print costs. And any money the studio got from licensing it for VOD sales will be offset by the fact that break even is closer to a 2.5 multiplier then 2 for the reasons you explain. At best this film will be a very modest success making a little bit more than break even. That's not chart breaking.

Releasing horror films in October and they do well. Hollywood is shocked. They never learn.

Wild robot is still around 50 million dollars away from being profitable. If it does do better than break Even it won't be by much. Why are you acting like this is a runaway success?

Hey Odin I think you miss one that is kind of important to look at only got a 6 theater release NYC and LA Art houses 540000 weekend box office 90000 per theater average its called Anora by Neon studios which the screenings are selling out fast here in nyc this could be an Oscar contender as critics giving top reviews 98 on rt

Terrifier 3 also hasn't been released in most foreign countries yet. The international numbers we have are from only 3 countries and only include the opening weekend for now. So over the coming weeks, the international number will also grow significantly.

GG on terrifier three. $36 Million on a $2 Million budget is wild.

I love box office.

Thanks Odin, happy Sunday.

Unrelated to the current film lineup, but I'm still disappointed my local cinemas didn't show Godzilla Minus One. Ended up getting myself a home theatre to remedy this with a decent sound bar and 65" Samsung tele and... can't say I regret this decision after finally making time for it last night. Now I need to make a list over what other things I need to watch on it.

Wild Robot geting a boost from all the underage kids sneaking into Terrifier lol

No ones going to see that trash.... TERRIFIER 3 WILL BE #1 AGAIN THIS WEEKEND.

I was hearing about the Art clown guy years ago in facebook feeds and discord random chatter. The Terrifier movies were strong cult following for awhile now. It was being held back by its style of film, but they stuck to their guns and now here we are hearing of it in the mainstream. This by default is a highly respectable series. Art is already a horror icon mainstay. Smile 2? On the other hand i had never heard of before last week. It is less known than the Terrifier films. I think at the end of the day, Terrifier is a trailblazer for a new wave of horror movies without withstrates of rating systems and big box office handlers. Horror fans seem to not like weak horror films and want gore fests. That sucks a bit for some of us, but the numbers are there.

Sad that Joker 2 passed Transformers One. I saw them both on opening weekend and one film is an awesome surprise while the other is the disappointment of a decade.

Damn dude thay aging ... you aged 10 years in 1. Not sleeping?

Hhmm. It's almost like people prefer fun movies with memorable characters and practical effects over agenda driven lazily written bad CGI-fests 🤔

I rarely ever see horror films either yet I'm almost always intrigued by their nature. More than likely I'll read about them instead, which inspires my own creativity here and there. Case in point, I absolutely LOVE everything about the first game of the Dead Space franchise. Incredible setting but if someone asked me to play it I'd run for the hills, haha.

I think smile 2 will do okay, maybe not as good as the first one but I think it will do okay because this is Halloween season and people want to be watching the scary movies.. and they've only got one option in theaters right now... I find it funny that we've got a Arthur, movie out, art, the clown movie out, and that small movie out where it's got that freaky smile that I would associate with even joker( and Arthur, the clown AKA jokester is not doing too hot)

It’s soo hilarious how fallen Joker 2 has become I believe Wild Robot can make its money back everyone praise this movie

I give terrifier 3 a 6.8/10. Gore Heavy/Lore Barely, the protagonist is a legit hero, they barely tapped into Sienna's back story, the spiritual lore, this movie feels like the tacked on a bunch of extra gore to compensate. They didn't show Art the Clown unaliving the kids, smart play on their part, would have turned off a big chunk of the population, including myself.

While I won’t be seeing Terrifier 3, its success cannot be ignored. Talk about building up success from nothing.

I heard teenagers that bought a ticket for The Wild Robot sneaked up to see Terrifier 3.

Thoughts?

Where are Greta, Adam Shawhan, Jason Clark or Mr. Peabody?

"Hold on to your lug nuts, it's tiiiiiiiime for an overhaaaaaaaul!"

Is it the Cancer sub-plot or the raunchy scenes that makes you not want to watch We live in time?

I hated both of these movies. Terrifier 3 was goofy and Joker 2 was obnoxious.

Joker is supposed to be chaos incarnate. Art makes Joker look like a pansy.

its just a fun slasher,,not a shocking movie,,I enjoyed it,,,,shocking?,,Martys,,the french one,,good luck ,,,but Im so happy it is doing well

Terrifier is an interesting case. If you watch all 3 Movies in a row, you can basically see a dude learning how to make movies. The first has no budget and is close to unwatchable. The second is a great improvment and has a plot but is a bit to long. The instinct, how long a movie has to be is not yet here. And then part 3 is a good paced thrilling horror and gore buffet. He is getting better with every movie and can be a really good director in the future.

For an independent movie like Terrifier 3 to make the amount of money it does is quite impressive. The first 2 films were crowd funded and super low budget but they garnered a cult following and now this new film in its opening weekend box office has already made more than the last 2 movies worldwide budgets combined. Thats incredible.
