The road to recovery has really been hampered by the fact that the studios have been very apprehensive to put two tentpole releases against each other. The weeks that stand out are the ones where there was some crossover. But the studios and their corporate overlords don't see the benefits. They just think they're losing money.

I actually like that Sonic 3 and Mufasa have both been #1 at the box office. Normally, one film would cannibalize the other, but here it’s almost like they worked together to co-lead the holiday season box office. As much as some people online tried to make Glicked a thing, I feel that Sonic and Mufasa ended up being the duo that propped each other up equally as both will ultimately end up in the 2024 top 10 domestically and worldwide.

Dan, I'd like your opinion on something I've been struggling with all last year. It seems like there has been a lot of focus on the negatives and hate lately. I understand it's everything, it's topical, it shouldnt be ignored in some cases but haven't we over done it a bit when you can find full playlists of hit pieces and call outs going back and forth from one infamous to another, one youtuber to another? To be brutally honest, I had been a loyal supporter of Kristian for 5 years before finally saying enough was enough after one too many Rocha rants. I just wish we could leave the negative Nancy's, the Nerdrotics, and anyone else who simply hate for the sake of fleeting ad revenue in a padded room. Love the content and the continued positivity.

Never understood the cost of Apple movies like Argyle and Fly Me To The Moon, there is nothing like $100m up on screen so assume what they are paying for is different, although could also be a case of Hollywood Accounting. Not sure if they care whether it makes money or not, a bit like Better Man, which is worth a watch. I get the impression this film got made with zero interest in box office returns, similar to Megalopolis. Someone felt the story was worth telling regardless of how many see it.
@ComoGotasdeAguaCine15 сағат бұрын
Usually directors, producers and mostly protagonists if they are famous not only get paid upfront but they receive a porcentage of boxoffice and other revenues. Since with streaming there's none of it, they get paid more in upfront from all the money that supposedly (if the movie does well) they will not getting from ancilliary markets. Hence a movie that would cost 60 mill + benefits divided among the top tier players gets bumped to 100+ for all the money been swept from the table for those people

Probably because I am a former historian and history teacher who was really into data, but I’d like to see the year 2020 added to your chart as a separate line. I know it’s an outlier, but that’s exactly why I would want it recorded. What you do is really important and posterity may take it more seriously than you can imagine. I would love to see you include a line for 2020, just to show the outlier and to remind us what shutdowns did to our artistic and economic lives. Just my two cents, but I really appreciate what you do and seeing the data.

I mention it only to say that 1. Dan is such a professional that it wasn’t as clear as he thought things likely would be, and 2. We never know what people are tackling in their lives. I strongly encourage looking up Dan’s video about his personal life last year, because it is personal and powerful.

Looking at WB’s slate this year, they’re probably going to be last, cause I don’t think any of their movies are sure fire hits. Superman is the closest to that, Minecraft might do well, but the fans are not really liking it. F1 (which they’re only handling distribution) seems like it could either blow past expectations or flop massively. The rest are expensive original films like Sinners, Mickey 17, PTA’s next film and Alto Knights which I don’t think will make more than 100M domestically each. 22:05

There will always be an audience for the big screen and I can see a couple of Billion dollar movies a year becoming the norm but the studios and theatres are going to have to adjust, I can see less big budgets and more theatre closures.

68m views for the first 4 days of Squid Game S2 & 58.2m views for Wk 2 for 126.2m views in its first 11 days is insanely impressive! Carry-On with 149.4m views in 4wks is now the 5th most viewed movie in Netflix history & will very likely move up to 3rd in a wk's time! Weekly RAW, NXT & Smackdown plus PLEs & entire WWE Library all being on Netflix for non-US subscribers is going to do serious numbers every wk for Netflix! Babygirl doing those 2nd wkend numbers with its less than stellar audience score metrics is interesting. Crazy that a near $700m worldwide Wicked has only done >$20m in just 2 overseas markets in the UK ($67m) & AUS ($24m). The Count of Monte Cristo with its great reviews which is set to gross $100m worldwide should perhaps have been submitted by France for Best International Feature Film (instead of Emilia Pérez). Good to see Mufasa put up a bit of a fight after its very disappointing start.

So sad to see 'Boy Kills World' be one of the biggest bombs. I thought it was a fun film that deserved better. Funny that Nosferatu is my least favorite Robert Eggers film but is enjoying the most mainstream success. My pecking order of his work matches the order of his releases. Wish my theater got that Se7en release, but no. The Damned was a solid sit, a slight conciliation prize. Wish that did better too.
