It's weird how low the hype feels for Venom. Not really expecting anything massive anymore.


Venom - 58
A Star is Born - 32

Venom has huge trailer views, it’s gotta at least hit 60.

Like it has some of the most viewed trailers of all time.

I think we could see the two biggest October openings, and in the same weekend no less.

VENOM - 65.7 MILLION
A STAR IS BORN - 56.3 MILLION

Venom - $62m
A Star Is Born - $48m

I think the last trailer for Venom was effective. It should get fans of the Alien and Predator franchises interested.

A Star Is Born is like the adult version of The Fault in Our Stars.

I think A Star Is Born goes mother of god. The female numbers should be huge

I think A Star Is Born starts smaller but essentially plays until February.

Venom I see a massive breakout. Would not be shocked by a Spidy type opening.

Social Media buzz for Venom is really bad, but I still think it can open over $50m.

As for A Star is born, presales on Fandango aren't that far behind Venom.

My predictions:
Venom - $58m
A Star is Born - $40m

I cant see why Venom wont open HUGE and then free fall.

ASIB will also open HUGE for its genre and then have some superb legs.

MT has Venom in the top 5 already with 4.2%. Even with disappointing reviews, I still think it will open above $60m and $70m+ OW isn't out of the question.

Post Re: October 5-7 Predictions
I went huge on Venom in KC's game, but the hype definitely feels muted right about now. I think everyone is anticipating the wave of bad reviews as much as the movie itself. Though if it can pull like a 61% on RT things should be fine.

A Star Is Born has a ton going for it, but will they turn up opening weekend or later on? And will Gaga's draw make up for it being more of a depressing musical than a happy spectacle like TGS?

The Hate U Give feels too on the nose to be a hit. Get Out was subtle, it could be enjoyed as a horror movie, then enhanced once you think about the politics of it. Same with Black Panther. THUG seems like it will be 90% tragedy, 5% finger pointing and 5% black empowerment. I'm sure New Yorkers will be willing to pay $17 to watch the news, but I can't see it playing well outside of the biggest cities.

So

Venom: $88.6m
Star - $38.5M
THUG - 45k PTA

But since I've been way off this season, expect

Venom - $42.2M
Star - $20.9M
THUG - 100k PTA

THUG is releasing in 34 theaters so I'm expecting maybe a $16,000 or so average.

Venom and A Star is born are already on MT (13 and 9.9% respectively).

Mamma Mia 2 did not appear in MT until Wednesday before its release, so a strong start for ASIB and of course, an awesome start for Venom.

That’s a set back but I think everyone expected it. Though 32 is definitely a deep hole to get yourself out of.

Are people really surprised by the bad reviews? It looked like trash from the start IMO, but it at least sounds like it will be an entertaining mess of a film. Sony is fucking lucky that the curiosity factor is so high for it and that there is an audience out there that is interested enough to push it towards a solid opening, because even if legs are horrible it's still going to be pretty damn profitable with only a $100M budget.

I won't be seeing it, but there is enough initial interest in Venom. Will likely open around $60m and then drop like the rock of a turd it is.
