BNF91 Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 I never discount Nolan and his power to draw audiences with just about anything, but Barbie's got this in the bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnusualBoy Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 I don't know what Oppenhaimer but Barbie probably has more appeal so I see that one winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talento Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Barbie would have to REALLY drop the ball to not win this Oppenheimer is not a fit at all with summer, it does not seem to be very commercial, and Nolan's brand was kinda hurt already by Tenet.

Drowned8World Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 probably oppenheimer because it's a Nolan film but i hope Barbie eats them. Nolan needs to be humbled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D_Man3379 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Oppenheimer seems like a slog of a movie, where as Barbie at least looks entertaining. In Greta Gerwig we trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Anything over $40m would be a major breakout for Barbie but I think it’s likely to wind up in the high $20m - $30m range similar to The Lost City if it lives up to its viral marketing push. It’s still such a niche sell; live-action comedies aren’t doing gangbusters and I would still not be surprised if it underperforms. Oppenheimer should be okay opening in the high $40m range especially with it dominating PLF screens. Interstellar was not far off 3 hours and opened to $47m back in 2014; WWII thriller Dunkirk managed $50m in 2017. Trying to use Tenet as a comp is beyond ridiculous and there’s probably more pent up demand to experience a Nolan film again in cinemas in part thanks to that pandemic release. Anything over $50m would be very strong. R rating might prevent that but feels negligible considering how the demos are going to skew older anyway. MI7 is the wildcard, depends how high it climbs and how much it burns its demand with a five day opening but it could definitely challenge for a #1 holdover probably somewhere in the $40m range too. Losing PLF screens to Oppenheimer will probably kneecap that potential though which is why Tom is so mad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivingCher Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 I’m excited for both but now knowing that Oppenheimer is 3 hours long and rated R, I do think Barbie will make more money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh... you can drag me if it ends up flopping but the buzz on Barbie is huuuuge. There is no way this is gonna open that low. It's gonna open really big imo.
