 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
It should solid numbers, but nothing spectacular unless reviews are outstanding. I'll say 13/55.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
First trailer was weird, not a fan at all. Downplayed everything about Rocky, but looks so generic without him.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
If they went and made it another Rocky movie with Rocky front-and-center, it would just be another Terminator Genisys, and you can see how that is being received. Nobody wants to see these old guys anymore, not even in the roles that made them famous. You have to tweak how you present these icons, and the Creed trailer does that very well. I am sure Rocky will feature more as the marketing progresses, but at the moment this is what was needed.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
No you're wrong, we've seen sub bad boxing films open to sub 7 all the time. it looked awful, doesn't make 4 million opening without the Ricky angle now. I'm hoping for at least 12

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
It's just the first trailer. You are having a very narrow-minded view. Campaigns do not begin and end with one trailer.
Anyway, you are the person that said nobody cared for Jurassic World, so it makes sense that your opinions are different to every single other person on the planet.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
I think this trailer looks amazing. I love Coogler/Jordan and I think they've found the perfect use for Stallone.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
The trailer is fantastic. This will bring in Rocky fans, and could win over some new fans and potentially break out a bit. 25/80 for now.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
Thegun's is really the first negative reaction I read to this trailer.

Mine is not negative, just of complete indifference.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
Yeah, reactions have been positive seemingly across the board, even from people that normally wouldn't be into another Rocky movie. The official trailer posting is also already up to 1.2 million views after 16 hours, which considering that the franchise isn't the hottest right now is a relly good sign that buzz is picking up on this. Thanksgiving weekend is too damn crowded right now (five wide releases), but I could see this out-opening all but Good Dinosaur. Rocky Balboa adjusts to $85 million now, and I think this could easily outgross that by bringing in the people that saw that movie, plus a younger audience that just thinks it looks good - I've never seen a Rocky movie before and I'm curious about this.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
God I was hammered last night. I somehow merged this trailer with the straight out of Compton trailer in my head. I take back what I said, looks pretty solid actually.
Algren you keep saying that about Jurassic World. How could I have said that when I myself liked the film, and most around me loved it.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
Both trailers played back to back when I saw terminator. It is a lot better without the Ice Cube/ Easy E subplot. Still not sure how much appeal it has though.

Magnus wrote: i think this would be better off opening December 4th after Thanksgiving. Having a open weekend to itself, even that dreaded post-Thanksgiving slot, is better than opening in such a crowded place. Well, in the trailer it just says "Fall 2015", and I think that was intentional as their current release date is so crowded. They want the option of moving.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
Creed's tweets are second only to Jurassic world. It seems to be a decent amount of interest.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
I thought the trailer was great. Thanksgiving is a bit crowded but this could breakout. Victor Frankenstein will bomb, I dont know what Midnight Special is, but X-mas and The Good Dinosaur should both do well. Currently predicting- 18m OW/75m DOM

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
This can do well even with crowded market. I think it will do a respectable $80m total.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
I cannot be 100% sure of this, but the other day when I looked at its Facebook page I think I remember it having 40k likes. Now it has 117k likes.
Ant-Man, the big branded Marvel blockbuster, has 400k.
Creed is going to do well. Very well. I'm thinking of doing an over $100m club for it. I genuinely think it can do that well. I think it will connect with people, and especially the urban culture.

Judging from the likes section of the page, it was only in the last week that practically all of the likes came pouring in, which is mighty impressive. It did probably help that the Rocky page with (over 11 million likes) shared the page and posted the trailer for the movie, where it's at over 8 million views. And the trailer is also already at over 4 million views on YouTube. So, awareness on this at least is insanely high, and it seems like all of it is very, very positive.

 Re: CREED - 25th Nov 2015
It is up to 144k now. At this rate, it will beat Ant-Man by a few hundred thousand. Then again Ant-Man may add a load when it gets released.
