$80 million in US theaters

$78.8 million overseas

$60 million from Disney+ Premier Access

It's the biggest weekend for a movie since the pandemic began.

Do we know its budget?

LOL. 🤡🌎

200 million.

Well it's made its budget already, which is great, but marketing isn't ever included in the budget and with covid kicking about junkets and the like couldn't happen.

It will be interesting to see how much it takes in and how much was spent on marketing once its finished its run

I hypothesized on another forum that making same day at home streaming would be a massive success.

I typically love to go to the movies. I used to find it relaxing. Even in a relationship I still like to go by myself because I can destress there.

However, I have noticed a couple of things. My TV has a better picture and it is very big, so that vs a washed out projection makes me not want to go. ALSO…almost no middle aged people are at the movies!

It's all teens and 20 people. So, there has to be a HUGE number of people with families, who are tired, who don't like young people, and they are missing the Friday openings. So, if you have same day streaming the people who want to go to the movies will go and the people who would not go—might buy the movie at home!

So, movies that do that, and are anticipated ought to make HUGE box office results.

There is definitely something to be said about the cinematic experience.

But yes, some days for convenience it is better to catch it where you can

Will you be going to the cinema anytime soon, Juan Kerr?

Not from my current location, no

You?

They are reopening Friday, but I don't think there are any films I'm interested in seeing atm.

I reckon that you are right.

Nothing fancy on the immediate horizon

Maybe that Karen Gillan one about women assassins?

LOL. 🤡🌎

I love the movies.

However, like I've said, I never see the middle aged demographic at the movies. I rarely see older people. They will go during the day if they live in some kind of senoir community.

So, the movie industry is missing out on all of these people.

I enjoyed it and bought it at home to watch.

I am not cool with it being 30 bucks but I figured if I went to the movies, bought popcorn and a soda, then it would be 30 bucks.

I sat on my couch and just chilled, if I had to use the bathroom, etc I just paused the movie.

So, I was feeling pretty good about watching it at home.

Plus you can jerk off while watching the movie, with out having to wear a trench coat 😂

I'll be monitoring you in private 💦💦💦

But the trench coat is part of it for me. 😞

I moderately enjoyed BLACK WIDOW. ScarJo herself was the biggest disappointment for me. Pretty forgettable, I thought. The girl playing her younger self was much more impressive (Milla Jovovich's daughter!).

I hope Florence Pugh becomes a Marvel regular.

wow!

So people have no taste in movies any more? I already worked that out.

Ugh. Another stupid comic book superhero movie that is made for the dumbed-down masses.

I'm glad to see that it has been Successful at the Box Office.

All of the people that Negatively Judged the Movie before it came out without even having seen it and All of the people that have been insulting and disrespecting the Movie definitely took an "L" on this one.
