Thoughts?
The biggest news this year is how far down the international box office is compared to years past. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes earned 1.35 times its domestic box office internationally while the previous Apes movie earned 1.9 times it's domestic. So, even though Kingdom is outperforming 2017's War for the Planet of the Apes domestically, it's total worldwide box office is way behind. And this has been true for most movies released in the previous year. Even Dune 2 is way down from Dune 1 in the ratio of domestic to international.
Is the worldwide economy that much worse than the US economy or are people outside the US just more sick of our politics.
I hope you feel better soon, Odin.
As for Furiosa, meh. Not interested in it. To paraphrase our favorite actress Brie Larson: "It wasn't made for me". But I'm sure 45yr old dykes with a soft spot for the post apocalyptic genre will flock to see it. Right? Right???
In my Scott Steiner voice: You see the numbers don’t lie, and they spell disaster for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga!
Flop-A-Rosa
Why in your 2.5x spreadsheet do you multiply the total gross by 0.6? Maybe it's staring me in the face but that's the only part of your calculations I'm confused about.
Furiosa had the same problem that Solo: A Star Wars story had. Nobody cares about how Han Solo got his pants.
Chewie is racist.
Great point. Completely not necessary to enjoy the character.
Was he not wearing pants for most of the movie? I didn't notice.
Your logical insight was probably never considered by Hollywood's brain trust. Thank you OMB nonetheless.
The amounts of flops coming out of hollywood is crazy
I think it's more telling of where the US is at right now in general. The economy is in shambles.. people are struggling to just pay their bills much less watch these newer movies full of current day crap no one asked for.
It would be cheaper if they would just stop working.
@@TwistedReality13 LOL. The economy isn't in shambles.
Mad Max without Max...mild shock. I hear it's okay, but no one asked for this.
It's not a mad max movie and it never was said to be that. Its within the mad max world
@@supertoyota5 I love the lore/world, but it's not strong enough without Max for the average consumer. The girl boss vibes it gives off likely didn't help either.
@GtheMVP they told an original story about furiosa. Its a good film. People keep saying it's a mad max film without mad max when it was never promoted that way. Also they say that they replaced the main character and swapped him for furisoa....its not a mad max film and they never swapped anything. Its a furiosa movie in mad max world
Hey Odin hope for your full recovery been thru that myself with food poisoning horrible!!! Anyway gonna check out Furiosa with family this week since been fan of Mad Max saga nice to see you again
In my Scott Steiner voice: You see the numbers don’t lie, and they spell disaster for Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga!
Odin has the most depressing intro and I find it hilarious 😂😂😂
The chase scene in the middle of "Furiosa" was good, but the movie was too long. Furiosa isn't a likeable character. Moreover, I stopped caring about her character before the movie ended. The ending isn't very satisfying either. Not surprising it bombed.
Yea, the script wasn't tight. Why did Hollywood loose the ability to write tight scripts and instead add 45 minutes to every movie.
I stopped caring about the character earlier tham that. I was on autopilot trying to slog through it.
For some reason I just didn't care about any thing on the screen. It didn't feel like a mad max film.
Max is our companion navigating through this oddball wasteland. He's our familiar.
You take him out and we are just watching the madness with no connection to it. It's like watching random caged animals. Our emotional connection isn't there
Weirdest thing in the Movie.
Furiosa disguises herself as a Man and spends years serving Immorten Joe and his Lackeys without anyone finding out.
Then when her Secret is Finally Revealed-No Reaction From Anyone Whatsoever !
Who would of thought
A mad max film bombs
Without mad max in it
Thanks for putting in the effort to give us this info despite your explosive diarrhea. We appreciate you😂
Those of us "Show BUSINESS" freaks always love your vids. God Bless Bro, Feel Better Soon !! Given the choice of spending your hard earned dollar on a movie that will be streaming in a couple weeks vs buying groceries, the choice is simple. Box Office dollars will continue to tank until the economy is fixed.
Journalists of all fields, sports, news, entertainment are so obsolete. Hungry individuals on X, Rumble, CZcams, etc are outperforming them. Also, like to see the continuing decay of Hollywood. Happy Memorial Day!
What is Furioesa?
I thought Furiosa was mostly enjoyable (Chris Hemsworth was the best part about it). But at the same time it fealt like a 6 hour series made for HBO MAX condensed into a 2 hour 30 min movie. Probably would have worked better as a series. Wish we got an actual Mad Max movie.
I also rewatched Fury Road after seeing Furiosa and man, it was so much better and even visually some of the CGI were not as noticable as they were in Furiosa.
Also they need to stop spending 150+ milion on these movies. They shouldn't cost more than 80-100 milion
It was too long and the pace was gingerly slow. I lost my patience within the first 25 minutes.
Ii didn't like Chris Hemsworth nasal voice either . I go sick and tired of him also
I'm curious how Inside Out 2 will do based on projections. Will Inside Out 2 make $80 - $100 million dollars opening weekend? I wouldn't be surprised if it underperforms.
My prediction is, it will make around 600 million $ total.
Part of me feels that the movie may have done better at the box office, if they casted Charlize Theron instead of Ann Taylor Joy. Maybe they could deaged Charlize Theron to make her look younger.
I enjoyed it for what it is. It’s believable. Studio should take off the title name MAD MAX. No Mad Max. Great action.
if they removed mad max from the title I think it wouldve bombed even more
There’s no Mel
Fk this girl movie 🍿
Make movies nobody wants to see. Brilliant.
And then blame the general audiences for not showing up to said movies made not for them, with the usual -istaphobe insults. Lol
Furiosa took WAY too long to release after Fury Road. Plus shes not a character that needed a prequel. We wanted a Mad Max movie.
Also that Garfield movie does not look great. But i like Chris Pratt, so i hope it tops Furiosa for the weekend box office.
I agree!! If they had somehow brought back Max (Mel Gibson), The Mad Max sequel would have made 1 billion+!!!
I liked Furiosa a lot but it does feel like a Fury Road DLC. Had Miller made The Wasteland instead that probably would’ve done at least a bit better at the box office. Hell Miller could’ve recontextualise this Furiosa narrative into a Wasteland War movie between Immortan Joe and Dementus and still have Furiosa as the main character, but really focusing and selling the wasteland war between the Immortan and Dementus and it definitely would’ve sold better.
I didn't care about the war either.
I wanted max to wander into someplace else. I was already sick and tired of immortan joe and the warboys. Couldnt care less if I ever saw them again.
I wanted new creative ideas.
Sorry to see that it tanked really enjoyed it personally just wasn’t really necessary imo , maybe he would’ve have been better suited to just following fury road with mad max wasteland even then I’m just not sure the interest is there . Hope you feel better soon brother happy Memorial Day to everyone celebrating.
how do we know what they say they spend is r\true?
I had a great memorial, my sympathies that the cinema employees sre not having such a good time. I hope jobs are not cut necause of this poor showing.
Furiosa was okay. Not interested in the movie. The movie didn't match the high octane movie of fury road. The world building is amazing. I wish the mad max video game did well. I would have loved a 2nd game
I really liked furiosa not as good as fury road but pretty decent, idk how this film got made with a bigger budget than fury road when that film didn’t do that well to justify a prequel that doesn’t have the main character of the franchise
More girl boss nonsense to me.
They must get the message that we don’t want this crap
Literally no one was checking for furiosa. Also mad max is not a popular franchise sorry not sorry
Took my kids to see IF this weekend and it was great. IF is a great family movie. It hit home for my family since my wife has a life threatening disorder and that’s paralleled in the movie.
Why does it matter what ethnic group watches a movie again? Why point out the 38% hispanic number?
That's a bizarre American hobby, they (esp. the left) are obsessed by race, se*ual preference and gender. One of the reasons why the Woke movement rose in the States (which is for a large part to blame for the demise of cinema). The last time I went to the cinema I went with a Chinese girl, a girl originally from Burundi, my little cousin (Portugese heritage) and moi; the White Walker from the Netherlands. We would have fallen in four ' race' categories in the States. It's beyond absurd but they love it overthere. And I always ask myself; who is counting at the theatre ? Maybe drop those guys and save some money.
There’s too many of them in America 🇺🇸
@@theglanconer6463 Ignorance is your bizarre non American hobby (just like the right) obsessed over race, sexual preference and gender. Will freak out over seeing people who arent white straight males in films (anyone Black) and instantly call it woke, and claim all kinds of crazy bullzhit great replacement conspiracy theories. (Which is for large part to blame for the demise of cinema)
You paid a Chinese girl originally from Burundi to go to the cinema with you and a happy ending massage. You and your kind invented those four "race categories" that you would have fallen into around the world, not the just the States. Your ignorance is beyond absurd but you love it overthere.
We're just tired of women led movies. Bring back the big action pack dudes who save the damsels, or have a leading lady who isn't an obnoxious girl boss.
Even the Female Lead from Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes is just like that.
She outdoes every Emasculated Male in the film, Including the Ape Lead Noa, Who's the Wimpiest Hero Ever to Appear Onscreen(All He Ever Does Is Run Away).
I'm mostly tired of most movies these days being led by women, with no real strong masculine men in them, no matter the genre. And even when the project is male led, around half of the time the male is weak and torn down while they have a strong woman to show him up.
Bottom line: it's ok to have strong women in movies, and it's ok to have to have female led movies. But it's also ok to have vulnerable women, and it's necessary to have male leads who are strong. Until Hollywood stops pushing The Message and course corrects (and not just fora few movies), movies will continue to fail at the box office, even if they are not bad.
I have an inkling if it was about mad max with tom hardy and it released a couple years ago instead it would've been made 3x as much. everyone is kind of tired of the girl boss taking over every male dominated franchise, even if it is a good film, it came out when that type of character is so tired out and stale right now.
Feel better man!
Kinda surprised you didn’t do the total box office numbers section on The Numbers website like you do every week this time. As far as Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes goes, are you sure that it would actually flop despite the fact that Furiosa has a slightly higher budget and the WOM isn’t as good?
There wasn’t really a need to do that this week
I've heard it's not bad, nor woke but a movie without Mad Max (preferably Mel Gibson) is a loooooooooooooooooong shot. I agree with the girl bosses, it's getting ridiculous. Especially in historical dramas or post-apocalyptic movies. It's just absurd. It never happened or would never happen. So immersion is not easy to say the least
Moreover grown ups (except parents with children and the superhero/and superhero adjacent crowd) don't go to cinema after they turned it into a themepark, the chain has been broken, a century old tradition is kaput ! Whole genres went extinct. And it's a terrible shame because it was entirely unnecessary. There's zero diversity anymore and if a ' traditional' movie (from a plethora of genres) manages to break through the endless infantile crap no one shows up anymore because the culture of going to the cinema is gone.
And now Gen Z shows zero interest, partly because they are more based than the millenials, partly because they are addicted to the Tiktok's of the world and partly because parents, uncles, aunts, older siblings were unable to distill some love for moviegoing into them simply because there were almost no decent movies to take them to these past 10 years. Just imagine being a young teen who was not into the superhero genre. No classics, no cult movies, no movies that makes you think or surprise, nothing of note except (re-)watching older movies (e.g. the classics and cult movies of Gen X and the boomers). That's how a culture dies.
Garfield is BORING! As bad as the animated Adams Family films.
What do you want it to be exactly?
Make sucky films, receive embarrassing revenues!
They seem to be clueless that their films suck. They take something that was never going to work and pump 168 million into it anyway.
This was pretty good though.
I agree 100% with your point. Many of us or at least myself, only see movies we want to see in Theaters. Dune 2, Late night with the Devil, and Furiosa for myself. Deadpool should be great, Godwilling. Btw, Furiosa was amazing. The people that Witness the movie in a Theatre are blessed for it, imho. Hollywood makes Billions. It'll all work out, or it won't. We all have bigger fish to fry, imho.
This movie could be amazing. But i dont care because woke Hollywood did their best to make female leads as annoying and man hating as possible.
Why would i pay money to sit down and be told im trash and toxic?
I didn't find it woke. I found it not needed. We have lived for 10 years with fury road content for free online and we own the blue ray and DVD. We are over this already.
Present new creative stuff not revisit this old shit that we already saw.
Did you even watch the film? Or Fury Road? Or any other Mad Max film? It follows the same formula al throughout, which is setting their main protagonists against impossible odds, irrespective of their genre.
@@greatrulo did you read my comment? I. Don't. CARE.
Original mad max films weren't attached to some political agenda.
Furiosa would have been helped if it had been made PG-13 like Fury Road was instead of R.
No one wanted to see this.
This is just a delayed reaction to all the sleight of hand Hollywood have been pulling over the last few years. I saw The Force Awakens and never bothered watching any Disney Wars thereafter. On principle I was ahead of the curve. A lot of people have finally come to the same conclusion. Don't mess with our beloved franchises
It's a good movie and worthwhile seeing on the big screen but the ending is silly. I didn't click the like button because your video is fairly lame.
LOL wow. Thanks for the comment! Still helps with the algorithms so I guess the joke is on you?
Wow what a dislikable host. So negative and one sided opinion. I assume right wing republican ?
Just numbers and facts
@@OMBReviewsthat’s the part that I like and what I watch for but it’s just your same consistent negativity or seeing the negativity in everything. Disney could cure cancer and you would still find a way to spin it negatively. This should be about numbers not your political or personal views surely.
Then you aren’t paying attention.
@@OMBReviews It seems some people do not like facts, an throw insults around, because they have zero arguments themselves.
Did you notice, Odin, the moment they cannot find a valid argument, they get personal and insult you as person? It is so predictable.
They do not understand that they lose any debate after a personal insult.
Your husbands boyfriend is calling you
He wants you to let the children out of the basement
Their parents are worried 😧
