Hopefully after Episode IX and Avengers 2019 they give those franchises a break for a few years.
There's no way that Disney goes much longer than 4-5 years beofre they start up another Star Wars trilogy.
Happy that Fantastic Beasts did well.
I wonder what the sequel will be called.
Fantastic Beasts and _______________
'Can You Fuck Them?'
Beasts setting self justification, bowing wayyy high update : 145.5M + 75M = $

My highly confidential sources around POTUS which cannot be named at the moment are revealing that WB is F.O.A.T, infact it is not making money at all...it is making Milk..because money is paper and milk is calcium. And if you drink milk you will get shock and die at point.so basically it is nothing than a walking dead around its grave!

Okay, between this post and all the Suicide Squad ones from the other months, you have to be a joke character posting on behalf of WB now.
He's actually Microsoft's Twitter bot, Tay.
We thought it was dead. We were wrong.

Deadline has Moana at $50M for the 3-day and $75-80M for the 5-day (wed-sun) Thanksgiving period.
They have Fantastic Beasts at $37-40M for the 3-day weekend and $65-75M for the 5-day
Personally, I don't think their 5-day projection for FB makes much sense given the 3-day estimate. Last Year Mockingjay pt 2 made $76M on the 5-day Thanksgiving period, with a Fri-Sun of $52M.
The exchange rate hurts it's USD total, but Doctor Strange passed Winter Soldier in China today to become the fourth highest grossing MCU film in local currency. Age of Ultron and Civil War are well ahead of everything else. Iron Man 3 will end up about 5% ahead of Doctor Strange.

How is that junior not perma'd yet?
Is he doing anything worth a banning?
Deadline's early numbers don't necessarily mean a ton. Their Fantastic Beasts domestic number was spot on last weekend, but the overseas number was way off. Doctor Strange and Trolls were both way off as well at the beginning of the month. I just post them for tracking purposes.
Disney stated that they would be happy with anything over $70M during Moana's 5-day launch. Tangled made $69M during that period. Frozen made a $93M.
EDIT: Moana is currently sitting at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes after 50 reviews, with an average of 8.2/10. I am not too worried about its chances of success.
Variety saying that Rogue One is tracking for a $130m opening weekend right now.
EDIT: Shit, lol. I didn't see the thread that Kswiston made about it minutes before with a link to Hollywood Reporter. My bad.

I figured there might be more general interest than the dozen of us who follow this thread after Sunday.
So I had no idea what Nocturnal Animals was and I looked it up and found this poster...
Holy fuck is it hideous.
How many high frame-rate theaters did Billy Lynn open up in exactly?
Buzz on moana seems really high, to be honest. I agree there's not much to worry about if you're disney
I think with the decades Disney films last in terms of shelf life, the critical reception is almost as important as + or - $10m on opening weekend.
Doctor Strange looks set to come in 3/7 for first in series Marvel domestic adjusted. Disney must be very happy with its performance.
$9.3M for Fantastic Beasts on Tuesday going into Thanksgiving weekend.
Moana made $2.6M from Tuesday preview shows.
Here are some recent preview totals for Disney films:
Zootopia - $1.7M
Big Hero 6 - $1.4M
The Good Dinosaur (same weekend last year) - $1.3M
Frozen - $1.2M
So $2.6M is a solid start
Allied made $600k in previews. Bad Santa 2 made $350k.
The "book" is literally just monster descriptions with comments by Harry, Hermione and Ron. As long as Rowling doesn't run out of ideas she could write a hundred "Fantastical Beasts" movies. Literally not comparable to the HobbitBut similar to how the Hobbit was one book stretched into a trilogy, isn't this one book trying to be stretched into 5 films? Reviews I've seen seem to suggest some plot in FB is stretched thin similarly, so the comparison seem appropriate to me.
You taking your daughter this weekend?
Probably not this weekend since my mother-in-law is visiting. Maybe this coming Tuesday or next weekend.
$15.7M opening Wednesday for Moana. Tangled made $11.9M on its opening Wednesday. Frozen made $15.2M. Moana sets a new Thanksgiving opening day record, though Frozen had a slightly bigger Wednesday proper.
Moana will likely end up somewhere between $85-95M over the 5-day weekend.
Fantastic Beasts made $11M on Wednesday. Its 5-day holiday total should end up in the 57-62M range, with the weekend proper somewhere close to or just over $40M.
Strange and Trolls continue to hold pretty well.
Most of the other openers are disappointing compared to their tracking.
Wonder if WOM will push moana over $100M
Thursday numbers are up:
1) Moana - $9.9M - $26M total
2) Fantastic Beasts - $9.6M - $111M total
3) Doctor Strange - $2.5M - $192M total
4) Allied - $2.3M - $5M total
5) Arrival - $2.2M - $51M total
6) Bad Santa 2 - $1.4M - $3M total
7) Trolls - $1.2M - $125M total
8) Hacksaw Ridge - $1.2M - $47M total
Fox re-arranged their release schedule a couple of days ago.
- The 10/6/17 Fox/Marvel film that was suspected to be Gambit is gone. Replacing it on that date is Kingsman the Golden circle (which is no longer being sent to die in June).
- Alien Covenant moves from August to May 19, the same weekend as 4 other wide releases (Annabelle 2, Baywatch, The Nut Job 2, and Diary of a Wimpy Kid 4)
- Fox is attempting to claim 11/2/18 with an untitled Marvel film (Gambit?). The live action Mulan, and an untitled Paramount film are currently in the same slot.
- Fox is also claiming 2/14/19 with an untitled Marvel film. Deadpool 2?
Man, alien moved INTO that slot? What was the August slot it moved out of?
Those untitled Fox/Marvel films aren't named yet. I just gave my guesses. As far as I know, Deadpool 2 was never dated. Black Panther is already in the mid Feb slot in 2018 though.
The Emoji movie and some small stuff. No idea why it moved.

Alien v Predator and Prometheus both had multiples in the low 2's so I don't think the release date matters that much domestically tbh. The upside is limited - this isn't Apes.
Isn't May always significantly more busy than August?
