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

[Prince-1]

A Quiet Place: Day One was a pretty good movie, but much more somber and character-driven than I think people will expect. It's about a woman with a terminal illness trying to find a reason to go on. I have no idea how well it will perform at the box office.

It was a really good movie and it is doing quite well at the box office.

Just got back from it. It was pretty good but I had to reset my expectations about 30 minutes in. Those going in for a monster movie may find it a little slow or be disappointed but it is worth a watch if you take it for what it is.

As noted in the Inside Out 2 thread.

Just an incredible performance on this one. It’s almost 40 million ahead of Incredibles 2 now.

DM4 has to take some bite out of it (but who knows it seems invincible), but we’ll know by Sunday how that final trajectory is impacted.

On the flip side I feel like Canada day and July 4th are both optimally placed this year to extend the respective weekends.

I’m very curious about DM4, what’s the word? I feel like there’s zero hype or chat about it. Inside Out 2, you could sense the excitement for it.
