I feel like I've seen this film already. It's all so SLICK yet SO HOLLOW. Also all that Blofeld stuff.. who's watching these films for NONSENSICAL CONTINUITY?
Just send him to ANGOLA in the search of some BLOOD DIAMONDS or something.
How is that even possible? The multiple cancelled marketing campaigns?that said, it apparently needs to make 925m just to break even...
it's quite normal for a film with a 200m+ budget plus marketing. they usually need to make about 3.5x their production budget to break into profit. on average cinemas keep about 60% of ticket revenue and the rest goes back to the studio.How is that even possible? The multiple cancelled marketing campaigns?
In the US the studio gets about 50%. internationally they get about 40%. and from Chinese box office they (Western studios) get just 25% which is why a film being huge in China isn't often actually great newsI thought I read it was the studio which got 60%. But I dare say there must be many different arrangements and distribution deals going on at any time.
Rehashing Goldeneye could only be a good thing. I am looking forward to this, but it has become a bit po-faced.
They do tend to go by the pattern of every other one being great.I really don’t see it. I’m sure it’ll do well but there’s nothing terribly special about another James Bond movie and the last one was awful.
I hope that pattern sticks. Casino Royale and Skyfall were both varying degrees of great. Quantum of Solace was hamstrung by the writers strike and I don't know what went wrong with Spectre.They do tend to go by the pattern of every other one being great.
Have booked for Saturday with the VIP leather recliners and unlimited snacks. Might as well since it’s a long film.
Industry projections on No Time to Die are in the $90 million neighborhood this session — a number that we are likely to revise as more becomes clear over the coming days.
That $90M would be a big win. By way of comparison, and in like-for-like markets at today’s exchange rates, 2015’s Spectre did $123.5M; 2012’s Skyfall came in at $109.2M; and more recently, Universal’s latest Fast & Furious franchise entry F9 did $69.5M.
No Time to Die begins UK screenings at midnight on Wednesday night and anticipation in Bond’s home market is sky-high. The Odeon cinema chain on Monday reported more than 175,000 tickets have been pre-sold. The exhibitor estimates this sets September 2021 attendance tracking 10% above the same month in 2019, and puts Bond in line for the biggest opening at its cinemas since summer of that pre-pandemic year.
Bond, like Norma Desmond, is once again ready for his closeup – and Daniel Craig once again shows us his handsome-Shrek face and the lovable bat ears, flecked with the scars of yesterday’s punch-up, the lips as ever pursed in determination or disgust.
first reviews from the British press are absolutely glowing
WTF is she wearing on the left? That's definitely a BOOT.weekend box office projections from Deadline
looking good! this is without France / US / Australia. curious to see how it develops - it's really the biggest test so far of whether cinemas can attract big pre-pandemic audiences any time soon.
premiere happening now
OK I did a double take and she looks great.I believe Piers Morgan aside, Daniel's raspberry tuxedo was regarded as quite the sensation, wasn't it?
What's all this crap with mainstream media selling this as 'magnificent'? I know the sector is dead because of Covid but surely in woke 2021 era Bond is the worst?!
I can’t believe I’m giving him oxygen by asking but what on earth has he said about it?I believe Piers Morgan aside, Daniel's raspberry tuxedo was regarded as quite the sensation, wasn't it?
"Bond wouldn't wear raspberry" About as shallow as you'd expect really.I can’t believe I’m giving him oxygen by asking but what on earth has he said about it?
I'm fine for one last Daniel Craig Bond but I want the next one Roger Moore levels CAMP CAMP CAMP. I'm SICK of introspection. Give me fun! Give me EYEROLLING DAD JOKES! Give me SMASHING CHEEKS IN SPACE!
