Fast is a complete joke domestically.
The Fast franchise is actually dead in North America.
Jeez, you weren't kidding. I didn't realize it wasn't anywhere close to hitting $200 million domestic after being out for two weeks.
I don't expect a 180m domestic, but it's going to do very well this weekend. I think 125m is a good starting point. To early to say, but 400m domestic should be on the table. I expect this one will have legs, even with the comp. Imagine if it got to the first films overall total, domestically....
The drop off since 7 has been insane. I get why, but even still. Stark.
1, 3, 5 and 7 have their entertainment value but as @Ninjablade said, they should have walked away after 7. 8 was forgettable and when 9 wasn't being incredibly dumb, it was being just plain boring. That said, I'm still going to watch Fast X when it hits streaming to see what the fuss is about with Momoa.
It's enough to make you wonder if Vin confirmed anything with the top brass at Universal before blatantly announcing there'd be a 12th movie.
This genre is so dead I've bought Spider-verse tickets for next week to try and keep it on life support.
Considering he went off the teleprompter during their presentation, I'm going to imagine the news of Fast XXX was just as much as a surprise to them as it was us
I wonder what kickstarted the current trend of 2PM-3PM Thursday first screenings? Is it to capitalize on the "kids getting out of school/adults working from home so they can make time for an afternoon premiere" crowd?Also, I need movie posters/trailers to start acknowledging movies come out on Thursdays now. I know people who saw Spider-verse at 2pm, that's a Thursday release.
All kidding aside, Kraven looks to be getting his due this year. And I'm not talking about the movie.
I 100% think that live action Miles and Gwen fall under Marvel's purview. I could be wrong, but something tells me Feige got them in the last agreement.
