Black Widow tickets are on sale but no premium showings available yet in my area... same for F9. That's annoying

Very very curious how The Suicide Squad does. It very much seems like America is turning a corner with the pandemic and Black Widow is looking at a huge debut. If TSS opens with less than $45m oop. WB really should've maybe done their slate on a movie by movie basis.

TSS will flop. Gunn is not that big of a draw and rest of the cast is not really known. Plus it's too early for a reboot. Regardless of the release date this would have struggled.

I thought I was careful by only using Gunn's name there :D

Old from the director of The Sixth Sense, The Visit, and Split might be a surprise hit. As long as it gets great reviews and reception from audiences, I wouldn't be surprised if this grossed $100m.

Its still hard to get $100m in the market. Let's keep the bar at Tenet's BO or maybe lower at $50m for all movies going forward.

Smart idea. I'd be shocked if it cost more than $20m. As for TSS, it would not surprise me if it opened below MK. Anything above BOP would be a win.

I wonder how good black widow presales are. Just bought tickets for 7:30 Thursday night and less than half the auditorium is sold.

They took out social distancing at AMC and now the Dolby screening I have for F9 is full... idk if I feel comfortable. I liked having the room around me tbh, I might cancel my ticket and opt for an empty showing sigh

Because of the virus, or physical comfort?

Did you expect social distancing forever?

Both tbh. No, I do not expect social distancing to last forever but I think it's reasonable for me to be uncomfortable. *shrug*

Of course after a long time it’s hard to adjust back, I sympathize with you. Though I think if you’re fully vaccinated you’re about as protected as you’ll ever be. But it’s definitely understandable to struggle to go back to normal.

I haven’t had to worry though since In the heights was empty haha despite being sat to 100%. My first experience in a relatively full theater will be Black Widow.

I think the second weekend drop for F9 will be lighter than average for the franchise since I expect many virus worried people in NY and LA are still taking a wait and see approach as mask mandates and social distancing are ending.

I'm honestly really surprised Jungle Cruise is looking to be a pandemic hit. I thought it'd do 70m at best. Look at Emily Blunt getting 2 100m pics during the pandemic lol

Jungle Cruise (and Free Guy) looks like that mindless fun movie that have broad appeal to audience at this point..

Old is looking like it could get close to 3x multiplier. Color me surprised, I thought WoM would be terrible. Makes me think Candyman has potential to do well.

If it had opened better it could have reached $80m.... Oh well.

What's going on with Candyman... no tickets on sale yet. Seems like it'll do well if Old is holding good.

Don't know how Candyman will do but it definitely is a known IP, it's yet to be seen if that would translate well at BO.
