What I really worry about is the Han Solo movie. I'm excited for it but I know a lot people don't want this movie. If it was really good and releasing in a good window it could hit 475 million domestic possibly over 500 but it would have to be great for that. The massive problem right now is it's window.
Avengers comes out 4 weeks earlier. It's going to pull at least 500 million domestic and on the week of solo it should do about 40 million. These tentpoll movies pull away grosses from later films because a lot of people can't simply afford to go to the movies every month.
The week after release deadpool comes out. In not sure what's going on with the Disney deal, I know it's not a done deal yet but will it be by may? 🤔 regardless if it keeps that slot DP2 is a 350 million dollar movie maybe more.
Week after that oceans 8 comes out. It's a sequel to oceans 11, 12, and 13. Each one of those made 100 million. Also remember a cast member for solo is calling the movie a gangster movie which is similar to this. Will also take away from the female audience.
The following week the incredibles 2 releases. (Doesn't Disney own this one too? What they doing). This is the biggest Pixar sequel besides finding dory and toy 3 in more than a decade. It's a 300-400 million movie too. And going to pull away the kids from solo.
The week after that is jurrasic world 2. It's the sequel to a 600 million dollar movie... nuff said.
So as you can see the legs for it will be chopped out from under it every single week. If it or ther movies don't move around it will not make 400 million in the states. Disney needs to push it out to June-August or move both deadpool 2 and incredibles 2. |
I'm thinking the Han Solo movie is going to get delayed. At least for their sake, I hope it does. I mean they finished filming not too long ago. And, now, within 5 months they are going to get through post-production and get it into theatres? We don't even have a trailer for it, yet. Just seems kinda rushed. If they don't delay it, yea, that schedule doesn't bode well for it. Something is going to have to give those weeks, and I think its going to be the spin-off that not everyone was asking for (though, I agree, it could be good.) Plus, given how TLJ turned out, I think some are going to be more wary of the next SW movie, especially a spin-off.
Also, weird they are releasing Avengers on May the 4th (be with you), instead of the Solo movie.

Naw, they won’t get more wary, Star Wars fans are the absolute worst. Idk if you remember but ESB got similar criticism as TLJ. And now it’s considered an all time classic. I could go into a long post defending TLJ, but frankly I honestly don’t care anymore. The discussion has become way too toxic. If you didn’t like it, too bad. But I loved it, and I can’t wait for the conclusion. Kylo Ren is quickly becoming my favorite Star Wars character. It will be interesting to see how the fans feel about TLJ in 10 years. But I personally have seen a ton of people have a change of heart for the better.
