@BlindEnt @haterhunter450 @Luiz_Fernando_J Well of course but when the first Star Wars film in 7 years can’t make its budget back without merch sales what happens to the future films where they can’t rely on merch. Thats how a studio views these things.
English

#TheMandalorianAndGrogu crossed the 200M mark at Global #BoxOffice, after the #StarWars film grossed 27.8M on 2nd weekend overseas, harsh -59.7% drop (vs #TheMarvels’ 19.5M, -69.8%, #TheFlash’s 26.6M, -64.5%, #BlackWidow’s 29.9M, -62.1%, #SOLO’s 30.3M, -55.8%, #Thunderbolts’s 34M, -60.7%), for a 109.2M intl. cume over 53 markets (vs #SOLO’s 115.3M at same point)
Allied to its 137.4M cume in the US, the SW film, with a 165M net production price tag not including marketing, hits a 246.6M Global cume (vs #SOLO’s 264.2M at same point)!

@haterhunter450 @Luiz_Fernando_J Still losing money which is all Disney will care about.
English

@Luiz_Fernando_J Well, at least given the cheap costs that this film had where Solo didn’t, it might at least lose less with potentially double its budget.
English

@SpacePigFan05 Worst part wasn’t the episode itself but realising in real time as things kept happening that leaks were true about Billie. As soon as Jodie turned up it was the final nail of “oh it was true” and my head was in my hands
English

@TrilbeeReviews I’m picking two because Rose is that good. My first is when Rose and Clive are talking about the Doctor, and there’s a brilliant blue light coming from the window which is also the direction of Clive’s computer with the Doctor’s face. My second is the first ever TARDIS entrance.

To help with an upcoming video, what's your favourite shot in 'Rose'?
Let me know in the replies!

@EmpireCityBO @disclosureday @F1Movie @UniversalPics Hope it has a healthy overseas box office too, would be a great momentum for original films having Obsession, Backrooms, and this opening incredibly
English

It is 2 weeks out from the release of @disclosureday and happy to say presales are strong. I would put them at the high end in the range of @F1Movie. Call it a range of $40m-$55m opening and would be a big win for Spielberg and @UniversalPics. Initial reactions outstanding!

@jamescorea @GlobalBoxOffice The three examples you used are all based on some sort of existing idea. F1 is a hugely popular sport, Oppenheimer and Jackson were real people, the latter was literally known as the King of Pop
English

@GlobalBoxOffice I loved Sinners, but F1 was an original film that opened bigger than Sinners with $57m. Oppenheimer was based on a book that I’m sure a lot of people didn’t know about. Opened to $82m. And Michael is an original film which opened to $97m. All this decade.

@JennyENicholson First thing I thought of leaving the film was your rise of skywalker review, I wasn’t angry just realised I had no love for where the franchise was anymore.
English

I haven't seen the new movie but it's ominous that this post suddenly started getting engagement again in the last few days

This scene of glowy cgi Luke Skywalker and unweathered cosplay Ahsoka looking like they're in two different environments woodenly discussing baby yoda and namedropping the Mandalorian sums up the current direction of the brand to me
English

@SirSnipeyy Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver really do carry the sequels with their acting, the only consistent thing throughout.
English

@wendellsandico The whiplash of early on when you think “maybe a few too many humans” in the background of the city scenes and then after that you see probably no more than you can count on your hand.
English

@BrewingSailor @MoyBoogieWoogie @Luiz_Fernando_J Also wasn’t this number originally confirmed when filming finished in 2024, we have no idea if they went over budget in post production
English

@MoyBoogieWoogie @Luiz_Fernando_J Also, that 165M number sites have been throwing around appears to be misleading. That 165M number is what was reported by Disney to California for their Movie tax credits. In California, the salaries for anyone "Above the Line" are not eligible for those credits. Continued below.
English

#TheMandalorianAndGrogu crossed the 100M mark, but also failed to beat #SOLO’s opening at Global #BoxOffice, after the first #StarWars film in 7 years grossed 63M on 5-day opening overseas (vs #SOLO’s 68.3M) over 53 intl. markets.
Allied to its 82M weekend in the US, the SW film, with a 165M net production price tag not including marketing, scores a 145M Global Opening, way below #SOLO’s 153M back in 2018.

@M_Sawce No matter how bad his writing can be, JJ can direct the hell out of a scene. Tros is terrible and yet there’s really long takes with great blocking.

mils ⭑ tmag! x3 ❤︎@djarinvrse
cinematography in tmag was insane actually lets talk about it
English

@JboiHQ Genuinely left the cinema angry that it was somehow worse than tros
English

@AlienDay426 @Luiz_Fernando_J It’s the whole reason I went as the air con in my cinema is 👌🔥
English

@Luiz_Fernando_J Heat waves are when you GO to the movie theater. Cold AC, cold drink. I don’t get it. Snow is when you stay home.
English

#TheMandalorianAndGrogu succumbed to the heated side of the force in the UK, as the heat wave menace is about to frustrate the #StarWars film’s plans of opening better than #Solo, after grossing $2.5M on SAT, dropping -10.7% from FRI Opening Day at the British #BoxOffice.
It hits a $5.3M cume in 2 days in the UK.
Facing the heat wave menace, the film starring #PedroPascal is now eyeing a $6.5M-7.5M 3-day opening weekend, what would the lowest debut ever for #StarWars under Disney management in the U.K. even below #SOLO’s $8.1M also against a heat wave back in 2018.

@HenrikTheOnly @derpo377 Sounds like you’re knit picking. There was nothing wrong with characters here.
English

i think we have to accept that audiences want Star Wars to be slop

‘THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU’ debuts on CinemaScore with an A- Read our review: bit.ly/MandoDF
English

@illjoy_ Also solo worse than tros? Both bad films but I think there's a clear better one there
English

You genuinely have to be out of your fucking mind if you think “the Mandalorian and grogu” is better than A New Hope😭

are we gonna have to hear about how bad andor fans are for having standards every time Filoni releases a new dumpster fire that makes secret invasion look good
⃟⃟⃟@upperupland
if the only Star Wars project you like is Andor then you don’t like Star Wars lmao
English

@JboiHQ Lucasfilm try not to make a film worse than the last one challenge: failed again?
English

@jbillinson Generic and inoffensive is probably the best review they could find for it🤣
English

@fartagaz I assume you meant like a picture of him in a scene or something
English

goddammit this has turned into everyone assuming I was expecting an AI deepfake Carl Weathers
major fartagaz@fartagaz
this is one thing that I’ll say I flat out didn’t like all the directors from the show got cameos in the movie, while Carl Weathers (who also directed two episodes) didn’t get a peep of recognition
