September 29 - October 1, 2023 - Weekend Box Office (Estimates) - Lemmy.world

This week I decided to add budgets to the movies (except The Blind which I could not find info for, at this time). Let me know what you think :)
This is great, are you hand crafting it or do you scrape the data and build the image?
I would like to tell you I have put in some work to make this mostly automated, but sadly I have not yet. I’ll probably end up there soon enough when I put in the time. For now I’m just manually entering the data.
Thanks it help in the conversation. I mean I know Barbie has legs (pun intended) but when you see the W.W. compared to production costs, woo. We should expect a heap of new productions ripping off the ideas soon.
The movie budget is a great addition! It helps paint a clear image of the gap between the ideas of the movie maker and public reception.
Thank you for this, interesting to see how bad Expendables 4 is doing
I didn’t even know they made another one until this post.
Worst rating of them all. Stallone doesn’t know when to quit…

A friend I follow on Facebook left this scathing review for #Expendables4, and apparently, he loved the first three in the #Expendables series.

The line "You could drag my nuts through the eternal furnace of hell" is not only hilariously unforgettable, but as "scathing" as one can get.

I don’t know. I feel it’s just sad when a 77 year old man is talking like that.

@1984

LOL! My Facebook friend is not a typical Facebook user, and doesn't fall into that demographic at all.

The meme stock movie is bombing, it appears. Not unlike a meme stock in the long term.
I'm kind of surprised at Saw X tbh. I've seen a lot more excitement for it in my online circles than any of the previous installments.
I guess I’m finally in a place where advertising can’t get to me because I didn’t even know it was a thing until just now. It’s the kind of thing I’d go watch in theaters if I had time.
I had no idea either but it’s crazy that they’re still going. They’re picking back up the main storyline? Who is even left to continue it?
I don’t watch the saw movies but from what I understand this one takes place between the first and second ones.

Ah so we’re just going to keep flashbacking to when

SAW3 spoiler

Jigsaw was alive. They really wrote themselves into a corner by killing him so early.

I don’t think they expected it to keep going like this. There are something like 7 original Nightmare on Elm Street movies and Freddy is a horror icon. There are 11 original Friday 13th movies and Jason wasn’t really a part of a couple of them.

I think they just didn’t plan for him to still be going. If they keep doing this they’ll need to have him meet Freddy and get dream powers.

I need to watch Paw Patrol, I feel like my niece is probably gonna grill me on it next time I see her.
Just saw it, I only almost fell asleep so that means it was good
Paw Patrol is on a roll!

Paw Patrol is neoliberal propaganda, painting government as incompetent and advocating for a privatized police force. Watch out!

Is PAW PATROL neoliberal propaganda for kids?

Man there are some MASSIVE bombs
It’s so crazy that Barbie is still on the list generating revenue, and available in theaters. Good for the Barbie people.
@robocall @ClarkZuckerberg I wonder if it's partially being bolstered by how expensive it is to rent on VOD still?
It stays expensive to rent while it remains in theaters. Once it’s out of theaters, the price drops.
@ReluctantMuskrat Generally, sure. But they often stay $20 for a bit when they first hit VOD even when it's no longer in theaters, and I've never seen them bump it up to $25 as they have with Barbie (save for some experimenting with release strategies during 2020, such as with Mulan)

I really like the numbers you have in this. Gives a much better idea of how these are actually doing.

Especially comparing how everything is doing better than Wonder Women. Odd choice, but hey it works!

The Creator is a fun watch if not just for really good visual effects and some decently good sci-fi ideas. Sad to see it not doing so hot.
This is great work, friend.
