Oh no... people will only pay for Disney+ and not pay to watch their content in the theaters?
Poor Disney+. It only takes in $9B a year in subscription fees. How will it manage?

Yep, not worried about the theaters so long as there is D +.Oh no... people will only pay for Disney+ and not pay to watch their content in the theaters?

Not only hasn’t made a cent - they’ve mothballed multiple $100M+ projects to stop the bleedingHasn’t made a cent…

Particularly with a Ninja Turtles family fare coming out and schools starting back up.
Barbie , and Oppenheimer got the last of the Summer season with Sound of Freedom being the movie of the season with legs. And what a finale these films were.

That sounds nice for a number, but look how much it costs. ROIs matter.
And what a perfect number, that is about how much they owe Comcast. An entire year wasted and their biggest shows dropped subscription and viewership. Done-zo.
And next year, not likely to earn that back in a year.
It's an asset purchase. They get something for what they purchase.
Once done, Disney gets 100% of Hulu's profit instead of 66%. It can then fold Hulu into D+ in the U.S. for greater synergy (get a higher asking subscription price). Getting earnings back on an investment is rarely recouped in just one year. People pay for solar paneling hoping to recoup energy costs over a decade.
And it disentangles themselves from Comcast's chicanery (pulling out their content from what was supposed to be a shared content streaming service).
I don't see that happening. I think The Meg ultimately dissapointed people and this one is just a fun B movie gore chomp fest.
I imagine it will do around 45-65 million if it really takes off.
I will be shocked if it topped Cocaine Bear.
It will be enough to knock HM down another peg though.

i doubt the Meg 2 will be a gore fest it is still rated PG-13 despite what the trailers tell us
True. Not much gore as they will probably be quick chomps. Gore fest was a poor phrase on my part. I was thinking more body count when I typed it.
The rest of my post I stick by. It will not break 100 million domestically, or I will be very shocked.

Agreed… I don’t even know why they did a sequel… I thought the 1st petered out pretty quickly without much fanfare

Saw a trailer for HM before Barbie and I thought it looked great. I guess it doesn't matter to me if it makes money, I just care if it's worth my time.
Barbie was wonderful though, I'm going to be spoiled for years by that one. Asteroid City was great too and no one seems to have noticed.

Just happy to capture this because we don't use the word "synergy" like we used to. We need to bring that back.

A reminder about D+
Bobs “plan” is to charge 3x what they currently do…with ads..and not lose subscribers
…because nobody can resist his IP
…oh and spend less on content too.
…I mean…it’s straight out of Stanford business school.

I think it’ll do better than Indy and HM
Then he’s going to have to come confiscate my DVD collection to make me that desperate.
Never heard of The Meg. I'm not into gore at all. But I saw the preview in a theater last night and left thinking it might be fun to see. Looked like a satire of Jaws.
