Cinema is back. And just imagine the yearly box office numbers once they add Brand New Day, Odyssey, Doomsday, and Dune 3

2026 could be a historical year for theaters

Another win for cinema in 2026

The f***ing goat never misses

Summer begins y’all

Good or bad

Budget is $80, it’s projected to do $40-45 this weekend just in the States alone

I’d say a pretty solid result when paired with the audience reception

Unless this crashes and burns to a halt next week it’s safe to say we’re going to get MK 3

On one hand, it’s good so many recent movies are doing so well

On the other, I can’t say there’s been a worse selection of movies to make money since… ever?

Nuts.

Andor gave Star Wars a 30 point lead heading into the fourth quarter only for them to lose it in the first 5 minutes

It should at least be flat compared to last weekend across this weekend. I’m curious to see Backrooms during the weekdays next week. Be interesting to track that. I think , I may turn out to be wrong, but the nature of Backrooms and the u unconventional-ness of it won’t lend to the avalanche we saw with Obsession. It will be front loaded and I expect next week for it to have to fight with MOTU and Scary Movie.

Mando gonna make $25-$30M this weekend and I won’t feel bad at all about that

Backrooms is gonna open to just shy of 100 million

That’s the biggest opening for an original movie of all time? No?

the theater is very healthy right now. a lot of different things you can see right now.

a few different horror movies (passengers, obsession, backrooms)
some franchise/big IP stuff (michael, mando & grogu, the devil wears prada 2, mk2)
a couple of black led films (i love boosters, is god is)
something for the kids (sheep detectives)

Yeah mando already made its money back i dont think they expected it to make a billi it was basically a rebooted pilot episode for people who never watched the show to sell more grogu toys

Great to see

That's how it should be frfr

budget was $300 mil with marketing its barely gonna break even bruh

Dat merch doe

It’s admittedly a little sad seeing Star Wars go out like this but it’s at the expense of the future of filmmaking coming to prominence so I’m all good with it
