You forgot to mention that Far From Home will be the first billion movie from Sony since Skyfall, you have to mention that for your next charting next Tuesday.
Yeah....I can't find their old honest trailers commentaries and charting segments on the channel.... Their contents are so good that rewatching them never gets boring...
A strategy that I think theater chains can adopt to encourage more viewing of the smaller films is to have different ticket pricing for different films, preferably based on budget. I might not have financial issues with watching a lot of films, but it still feels kind of odd to me that a huge expensive fancy blockbuster like Spider-Man costs the same amount of money to view as a much cheaper film like Yesterday or Midsommar. I read somewhere that ticket sales for smaller films skyrocket on $5 Tuesdays and similar discount days, so this might be a viable strategy in a market with increasing bigger budget gaps.
💯 agree. Even a small discount would reflect both actual comparative audience interest. Tickets Sold = Interest If upcharges (like 3D) reflect the level of enjoyment people want from their movie going experience, then discounts only make sense.
Purely anecdotal but this seems true to me working at amc. Midsommar, MIB international, childs play are some movies that have been incredibly crowded on tuesdays and not so crowded on other days
I would also argue for better marketing and distribution. Some of the smaller movies are barely marketed and I've missed out on some great movies because I don't feel like driving 75 minutes for a 100 minute film and then an additional 75 minutes back when I have two theaters that are 10-13 minutes away each. Maybe doing a "tour- like" distribution where these smaller movies play for like a week or two on select theaters and then switch to another set of theaters for weeks 3-4 and switch once more for weeks 5-6 and so on?
That’s a really interesting idea! I wonder how much that is affected by the subscription services from companies like AMC and Regal. If you’ve already payed for everything up front, does that make it easier to go for the smaller stuff? Although the people who can afford to pay for the subscription may be people never objected to paying for everything anyway.
This is why 2018 was a better year for film: the top movie at last year's box office was not a DIsney film. Of course, I refer to John Travolta's magnum opus, *Gotti* .
Avengers: Endgame still has Australia, Chile and MAYBE South Korea in August. That alone along with Comic-Con next weekend, will help Endgame pass Avatar.
Three months in release for Endgame... bear in mind that Avatar was 34 weeks in release (& includes it's special edition re-release in its total)... so it is more of a sprint than it might have seemed
@@lennynero635Nero whats BIS? you mean ticket admissions? if so Endgame wildly outperformed, endgame sold like 350m tickets worldwide and that was last May while avatar in entirety sold 280m,ppl talk about inflation, but avatar made as much money as it did base on the insane exchange rate and the boom of 3d,if you just take avatar exchange rate of some countries like europe and apply it endgame,endgame would already passed the 3 billion mark europe alone,thats how insane those exchange rate were.
@@CineScarborough im sorry what ? Am getting wooshed ?this has to be a woosh ?

If Lion King does end up working for the general public the way Aladdin did, then I don't know if people are ready for how huge the grosses could be. People forget that for almost a decade (until Finding Nemo) the original Lion King was the highest grossing animated film of all time (not adjusted).
Mark Legend its the highest opening in china among all disney live action remakes. And it doesn’t need 2 billion. Looks like it’ll get well over a billion easily and that’s great
I'm on vacation in a small town in Ohio right now, and our local theater is literally only playing a single film on all of it's screens this friday: The Lion King. This movie is going to be huge!
After seeing the trailer for Crawl, I thought it would be equivalent to hurricane heist last year. Ratings have me surprised and interested to check it out
These charting videos come out at like 3-4 AM where I live so whenever you say that these come out on monday I always get confused as to what day it is for a sec
11:33 It's so refreshing that you guys leave your movie insider bubble and realize that going to the movies is rare for a lot of people and may only happen 1 or 2 times a year. You bring that up a lot which I appreciate. I know this may sound so obvious to some, but there are some people who don't realize this. Subscriptions like AMC A-List (the only one that seems to be working on a large scale, to my knowledge.) help get more people to the movies more frequently, but $20 a month is still a decent amount to a lot of people, especially for something like entertainment. (That's not counting any theatre snacks if they choose to buy some.)
Hey, I can be patient for my Charting next week. Just have a fun, safe and productive Comic-Con! Thanks for another wonderful episode, Dan and Lon! Y'all make my Tuesday mornings! (I wait to watch.)
I've been saying for the last 2 years that studios need to just make comedies straight for on demand. My couch with my friends and my food is the best way to watch a comedy.
I thought it was weird that Booksmart was released wide instead of being released in a few theaters and then expanded like an indi movie. It definitely felt more like an indi movie and I wonder if it would have been more successful, or at least perceived as more successful, if they had taken time to build momentum and word of mouth. It was a great movie and hopefully more people will see it on streaming.
Aww, Dan put himself in time out for confusing Sony/Disney with Spiderman. "I'll go home and think about what I've said." No need to do that. You are awesome!!
Dan, Avengers EG did set a record against Avatar for highest worldwide grossing film all time during its 1st uninterrupted theatrical run. Avatar made $2,777,223,601 before closing on 8/8/10 and it reopened on 8/27 to add $10.7M to its total cume. EG is now $4M above that at $2,781,212,415. Is it a technicality that Avatar took two weekends off before releasing a special edition? Possibly, but it is a gap that is only different from the Star Wars re-releases in degree but not in kind.
The real push now in the Avengers vs Avatar battle is to have it become the highest grossing movie ever in time for the advertising push when it’s released in a couple weeks on Dod and blu-Ray
I really wanted to see Booksmart in the theater but my trips to the cinema during that period were to see Yesterday & Spiderman. If I'd gone to see another that would've been it but, as you said, it just wasn't a high enough priority & my viewing slots were limited.
Since 2015, Disney has had at least 3 films in the top 10 box office films of the year In 2016, the top 5 grossing films of the year were Disney films (same with 2017 and 2019 currently if you include merchandising from the Spider-Man films) Still to some from Disney this year: Maleficent 2, Frozen 2, and Star War 9 (I might have missed some) All hail our mice overlords!
Spider-man FFH is definitely gonna surpass Aladdin overall at the domestic box office, so the "Disney will have the top 3 Summer movies" isn't gonna happen.
@@DazzaS83 PLus the possibility for Lion King and Toy Story. The new Toy Story hasn't even started in my country yet. Toy story is now at 731 million, so depending on how many markets it still has to open in and how well it does there the 1 billion for it are possible as well.
you guys are right you cant really compare years apart because of inflation and other variables but still you can see who's coming out on top just within the year
I'm not going to see the live animation of Lion King because I already seen the 90's version so I'm going to skip it until Tarantino's 9th film once upon a time... in Hollywood comes out.
As far as the flagging performance of comedies: I think one factor in that is how Marvel has kinda perfected the big-budget action-comedy, and that could be eating into regular comedy business.
Why do you guys sound like you're annoyed every time the endgame/avatar discussion comes up? I find it exciting that the all time global record could be beaten. I don't care that Disney owns both properties, one was created and released by them, the other was just inherited
Kevin Pauly But this is a box office show and they never seem to say anything but “it’s going on a long time” as if there’s no analysis to be had. Seems weird that one could be so into the subject and not into the highest grossing movie of all time race. An aligned launch graph to show the differences in trajectory to get here or an extrapolation of the future or analysis on the odds would be welcome. They haven’t captured the many twists this saga has taken like everyone calling it done a couple weeks ago before the expansion really showed its legs Seems like they’re only looking at the surface which would seem boring for a lot of things that he goes more in depth with and makes interesting
Like it or not, Disney played the LOOOONG game, really. She always had a LOT of concerned about brand perception, thing other studios did not. Now they have massive nostalgia to cash in, associated with good marketing and bussiness decision on buying companies that appeals to different demographies. She has the classic fairy tales for kids, has the most famous super heros, has star wars for the older demographies. I don't like monopolies, buy Disney had some brilliant marketing and business strategies so far, hard to deny their success.
I think this is disney one off best year. I'm curious to see if the love n money keeps pouring in for the marvel movies now that the line up is going to change m losing the names that have been from the jump. Black panther n captain marvel got huge bumps from the w avenger movies coming after them.
I love Dan and think he's on point all the time. BUT c'mon, Aladdin is one of the MOST beloved classic Disney movies. It shouldn't be so surprising that's it's made almost 1 billion. Beauty and the Beast made 1.2 or 1.3 billion. So Aladdin can at least make a billion.
Dan reaffirming that he does not care for realistic looking animals talking, kinda makes me wonder if there is a story behind this discomfort, or it's a simple "I don't like this" case.
That money argument whilst fair is a little broader than most think. For instance a friend thought it was odd i've seen 15 movies this year and said " gee that's a lot of money." 15 dollar tickets where i go so (with concessions on occasion) i've spent around 200-250 at the cinemas which out of context seems a big amount, however i went for birthday drinks with friends and spent 70 dollars on the one night and I know plenty of people who do that a lot more and spend a lot more. I guess the point I'm trying to make is that we all if fortunate enough spend money on things that we don't need it's just that some things seem to be more acceptable to spend money on than others. Frankly i'd rather see a movie than get drunk but that's just me.
As a single income family of 4, trying to pay a mortgage, utilities, transportation, etc. it's a much bigger question than going to a few movies vs getting drunk with friends. You are right, money is a whole lot more complicated than basic sums. We have about $50 a month budgeted for "entertainment." That includes our streaming services, eating out, and the occasional movie. In a year that adds up to $600, but trying to budget it among 4 people over 12 months makes it seem very small.

I guess the point I'm trying to make is that we all if fortunate enough spend money on things that we don't need it's just that some things seem to be more acceptable to spend money on than others. Frankly i'd rather see a movie than get drunk but that's just me.
As a single income family of 4, trying to pay a mortgage, utilities, transportation, etc. it's a much bigger question than going to a few movies vs getting drunk with friends. You are right, money is a whole lot more complicated than basic sums. We have about $50 a month budgeted for "entertainment." That includes our streaming services, eating out, and the occasional movie. In a year that adds up to $600, but trying to budget it among 4 people over 12 months makes it seem very small.
Endgame is just $6.8m behind avatar now. Will it pass?
Disney is gonna always win.
There are discount theaters. I do not think price is the barrier
