    How did Universal not plan for Florida summers with as long as uni has been here…. Even Disney knew they had to do things differently vs Cali way back in 1971 with things like a cover for the Tea Cups and having the entire It’s a Small World boat ride indoors

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    I don’t really care about comparing past movie x with current movie y…, but since some people want to…. My best guesstimates Shang-Chi would not come close to that…. Given the state of Superhero movies today and that it is the first film for a character that most of the general public does not know

    I must live in the rare well behaved area…. I have rarely encountered any misbehaved individuals…. The only one I can think of offhand is someone brought a screaming baby to a screening of Alien Romulus last year… but other that I have not had any issues….there were times I was worried with...

    Well if studios lose theaters….either the price of movie tickets will be nothing compared to the cost of streaming/PVOD…or the quality will drop…. most studios have cut back on the production costs on their streaming content…. Which tells me streaming has not proven to be the cash cow many...

    I have a tough time seeing Theaters going the way of the dodo…. Studios need theatrical to prop up their streaming services…the data is in…. Movies have a bigger pop on VOD if they hit cinemas first…. It is why you saw a bunch of movies of higher quality switch from streaming to theatrical…...

    Everything feels more expensive these days…. With our local chains movie club we can go for 10.00 a piece no matter the time of the screening….it is about the cheapest form of entertainment for the 2 of us….

    One would of thought it could open better then the awful Friedburg and Seltzer films like Meet the Spartans and Epic movies… those usually opened to about 18 million unadjusted

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Now Open!

    Are people really throwing shade at the people mover… an all time classic Disney attraction that adds kinetics to the park and was imagined as part of the theme of Tomorrowland …. A 60’s idealistic vision of the future

    The movie found an audience on streaming…. Would it have done the same if it was released only in theaters….I am not so sure As far as the downloads go….KPop has some very rabid fans… the BTS army has been known to continuously stream songs to goose the numbers

    It’s not that people will not watch originals….it’s that people will more often then not wait till those originals hit streaming/VOD Plus KPop has a huge market share these days whose fan base will follow towards any movement in that genre

    I agree movies can still well…however I believe those movies that hit the zeitgeist would of done even better before 2020 Also there is no reason to believe Superman or F4 would have hit a billion…. As history says they would not have

    People need to wheel in their expectations…. No movie is making what it would of made pre-COVID Jurassic was always a reliable billion dollar franchise….Rebirth is not going to come close to that money…Even Stitch would have made more…. I believe it would have been closer to The Lion King...

    RIP Terry Bollea (Hulk Hogan)

    I stand corrected… I have never understood the appeal of professional wrestling…. Nor cared for the persona of Hulk Hogan….although I get it for people he meant something to…. Carrie Fisher’s passing really affected myself I forget about that paradise show…. I did catch a couple of episodes...
