DL: The MCU is over long live the DCU forever! GOTG3 "only" tracking for $130 million vs 146.5 million for GOTG2 Super Greasy Fanboy Apr 13, 10:43

Wakanda Forever Initial Tracking = 175 million, actual opening $181,339,761 {nm} Super Greasy Fanboy Apr 13, 10:45

I'm trying to find the earliest DL tracking on Dr Strange 2 but not having much luck except a $160-180 range but 187 million {nm} Super Greasy Fanboy Apr 13, 10:52

They seem to pin it on reduced "first choice" #'s vs #2. Unsure if MARIO is siphoning off some first choice? F8 was the big April 2017 {nm} notfabio Apr 13, 11:10

DL: [GOTG3] tracking $130M (GOTG2 was tracking $150M at the same point) Antibody Apr 13, 11:23

The internets will be awash with even more bile than usual if GOTG3 doesn't significantly improve from here. notfabio Apr 13, 11:27

Trades will chicken little the superhero genre too {nm} Moviesnob Apr 13, 11:57

If it's good (buzz is that it is), they should consider last minute screening it at CC (spoilers or not) to ramp up WOM. notfabio Apr 13, 12:09

Yeah, I hear its good but too long. But not sure CC would build any buzz. theaters are already in the bag for it and press would see it Moviesnob Apr 13, 12:15

Kind of a can't hurt. They screened Shang Chi on a similar timeline, but that was in lieu of any Disney presentation at all (COVID) {nm} notfabio Apr 13, 12:33

Tracking now ~130m should mean D3 ~140m & D7 ~ 155-160m but given recent MCU only doing D24 = ~1.8x to 1.9x D7, this shows D24 ~290-295m Tallwonder Apr 13, 12:11
