Will new movie only made $5.7 mil opening weekend

[The Intergalactic Koala]

I mean its a drama.....

Its on HBO Max....

Why would any sane person would go to a theater and see a flick of such a magnitude unless they are movie buffs, love Will Smith, loves the Williams sisters, or have a date.

I know its getting played out but we are still in a pandemic. There's countries that are still on lockdown and folks are still tripping about masks...the breaks

It's a biographical drama so it's not going to make 200+ million at the box office even if it wasn't a dual release with HBO Max and the pandemic still going on.

I swear people don't understand we're still in a pandemic
and it was on HBO Max that's how I saw it

I have HBO Max & didn’t even realize it was available to stream but went to see it in theaters last weekend. I like the movie experience especially in a great spot like IPIC Theaters.

Didn’t Mortal Kombat get a $17mil opening last year on simultaneous release?

Didn’t Mortal Kombat get a $17mil opening last year on simultaneous release?

Also had an imax release
Would’ve made more pre pandemic
Did you see that in theaters?

 

[Atlrocafella]

Why would I go to see it in a movie theater when I can watch it at home for free?

Exactly. Not like I was going to go to the theater to see it, but since it was available on HBO max I checked it out

Will is too big of a star to be doing movies like this. This should have gone to an up and coming actor. Not sure why he picks terrible roles so often.

Lol he’s 100% going to get an Oscar nomination and probably his first win for this movie. You have no idea what you are talking about

 

[R.E.N. Spells Ren]

It's a biographical drama so it's not going to make 200+ million at the box office even if it wasn't a dual release with HBO Max and the pandemic still going on.

Exactly.

Denzel did The Hurricane and only made 400k opening week. Smith’s Ali did $15M and that was about the larger than life Muhammad Ali without a pandemic and streaming options. $5.7M for an Oscar bait film during these times isn’t some major flop.

 

[Shadow King]

Keep that same energy when Matrix drops....

Thats my point. It should do 5.7 also

 

[Tribal Outkast]

I have to see this movie

 

[RARI_Godwind]

I wish I would make some niqqas $5.7 million and they’d be ungrateful

Don’t worry, spidey gonna restore the feeling
