 I don't think Mission Impossible is going to have much staying power over the coming weeks. I watched it yesterday and almost walked out. Stunts aside the movie is so far up its own ass with jargon - and none of it interesting, entertaining or makes any sense. I see 60% w/w drops once word of mouth catches up.
For anyone who doubted this prediction :wave:

I really hope the 70MM IMAX locations stay locked in through August and September. In Philadelphia, all 15/70 shows are fully sold out for the next 2.5 weeks (4 shows per day). When a Tue/Wed showing next week at 10:30am is SOLD OUT - the show must go on. I really want to see the film for a 3rd time - if only I could get a ticket.

Yeah, nice prediction. I watched Mission Impossible a few days before Oppenheimer. Both are long movies, but I did not check my phone clock a single time during Oppenheimer. I checked my phone clock 3 times (!!!) during Mission Impossible because I wanted to know how much longer until it ended.

Mission Impossible 7 is a well made movie, but I think I'm just tired of franchise movies in general at this point. I don't have the patience for a damn near 3 hour franchise movie. Make the thing 2 hours and 6 minutes like Tim Burton's Batman movies. That's the sweet spot.

In Poland 250 000 people watched Oppenheimer.
Barbie 466 000.

Very good for both movies.

Interestingly, in Hungary the margin was much smaller: this weekend around 110.000 people watched Barbie while 99.000 tickets were bought to Oppenheimer. And these are pretty huge numbers here, too!

Let's not rejoice for the tree-cutter too much, though.
