Indy had a disastrous box office drop from July 4th to July 5th. It puts the nail in the coffin for any chance at profitability, and now the only question is will this movie be one of Disney's all time biggest bombs or just a really, really bad result...
The drop from a holiday to non-holiday is to be expected though. I mean, I agree with you that it likely won't be a hit, but you seize on every little thing, as if you still need to prove it to yourself. A drop from July 4 to 5 is not a big indicator of anything. The 5 day total though...yeah, that's too bad for sure.
Full agree! It felt like a return to form to the original trilogy. (Maybe because Indiana is best when he’s punching Nazis and not Soviets?)We saw it today and loved it. It’s very Indiana Jones, slightly ridiculous in the absolute best of ways. I really liked how they didn’t downplay Indy’s age.
Its drop was far higher than any other movie...at a time when it had a bad open and needed to show some legs. They won't be coming.
After MI7 and Oppenheimer open, it may be a true bloodbath, and the movie could be looking at only 1-1.3x budget WW ($300-$400M)...that would be an all-time bomb for Disney, rivaling Mars Needs Moms...
No I did not miss the 5 minutes of coolness at the end.Did you miss the ending ?
