from another thread, but seems to be related here. Look at Current BO. Americans love only Marvel/DC capeshit, Disney/kids friendly stuff and vehiclular action. Nothing else than these, hit 200 mil (maybe Dunkirk is on a way) and only 7 other movies in whole Year passed 100m.
>>
>>87161195
A shity economy with people unwilling to part with overpriced tickets while also having the relatively cheap ability to watch whatever they want ton the internet is the reason for declining tickets sales. Pure n simple.

Hollywood is going to need to learn to budget more cost effectively if it desires to keep turning profit. Meaning smaller scale movies with tighter laid scripts and planning.

>make way for the XENU cinematic universe!

>>
GOYIM, STOP THIS RIGHT NOW
IT IS THE CURRENT YEAR
>>
>>87161286
But I don't get it. Everything is now focus tested to hell and back, movies budget their reshoots in the main photography production budget because they are all sure they'll have to go through them after focus tests, and 3 out of 4 non capeshit big Hollywood movies still bomb

Why don't they realize that shit isn't working? Jews are supposed to be smart about these things, right?
>>
>>87161298
The money isn't worth it for other types of movies given ticket prices when the movie goes on-demand and DVD in under 3 months. So spectacle movies get all the business, especially when all the kids are out of school. Budgets have gotten completely out hand.
>>
>>87160490
Besides Spiderman and Baby Driver the rest of it was garbage. They predicted this summer would bomb considering that most of the movies this summer were sequels.
>>
>>87161173
That's all they need. Guaranteed they sell the franchise rights off after Infinity War; Some sucker will buy it.

>>87162522
Exactly. Knowing that as old men they realize that the thing they fought for was a caliphate ruins the whole movie.
>>
The last four movies I've gone to see in the theater are TFA, hateful eight, baby driver and arrival (not in that order)

4 movies over what? two years? I missed a few kinos and going to TFA was a mistake but overall there just isn't enough reason to go. unfortunately patricians like me will never be the primary customer.

Eh, he's kind of melted into the same progressive shit fest Marvel is a personification of right now. Avatar was the writing on the wall and his recent comments about female characters just kind of confirms it.

A videogame crash will only lead to a massive switch to mobile p2w services, and a hollywood crash will just stop high budget productions in the west because cinema is dead already

>>
>>87163688
Seeing how you're somehow defending a movie that is aimed at children, women and maybe gay pedophiles I don't understand where you're coming from calling others kids, but yeah Homecoming is a complete mess on a technical level (direction, editing, script, special effects are all awful) and you should really get a different hobby if you didn't pick up on any filmmaking techniques whatsoever through the years to the point of thinking it was any good
>>
>>87163547
It's going to get really close by the end of its run and it still has a shot at beating them. There will be suicides if that happens
>>
>>87163688
Homecoming was such a fucking bland generic shitty movie. Only good scenes were with Keaton

Also

>A white boy's love interest is 2 black girls
I am pretty sure this is the most unrealistic thing ever. No doubt if this was realistic he would have been hitting on a white girl as well

Also the popular black girl wasn't attractive in the slightest. Zendaya however was gorgeous and he should have been hitting on just her
>>
>>87163796

I've just been checking it out. It's going to beat both. At this point it's inevitable. Just yesterday it made 180k. On the same day Civil War only made 14k and it still managed to make another 2 mil during the rest of it's run.
>>
>>87164002
The fact that he was the only white boy attending highschool in Queens was the most realistic part of the movie, there are no white girls for him to date at all

It's just that people are tired of seeing reboots/remakes/sequels/treequels and want something original. Also Meryl Streep should stop seething over the fact that people watch MMA frequently over movies. UFC is slowly going to Attitude Era WWF tier ratings. It's more interesting than the "all-female Transformers/Fast and Furious crossover film".
