Impressive how Dan resisted the temptation to say 'We will find out next week if Longlegs has .... long legs at the box office. We were all thinking it tbh.
@@DanMurrellMovies Hey Dan, I know your a bit of a fan of both Star Wars and Star Trek and I thought of a video idea I wanted to recommend you. I’m a Star Wars fan and I hear a lot about the series even when I’m not trying too, but I can’t say the same about Star Trek and that caused me to wonder how different the fandoms of the classic sci-fi series are. Like how the newer fans are in comparison to the older fans, how older projects are looked upon differently by the fanbase then how they were received initially on release, how the cast and crew relationships with these franchises compare to each other, or how the recent shows and movies put out by the franchises are received by fans.
This is an anecdote but, for the past 3 weeks when I’ve looked, Twister has been in the top 10 movies on Max and the Apple charts. I agree with Dan that there’s enough excitement about Twisters for it to be a big hit edit: just checked and it’s also #2 in the google store
Glen Powell is becoming a huge star. I’m not a fan of the original, but Glen Powell starring and Lee Isaac Chung directing has me really excited for the new one.
Totally anecdotal, but here in my country the movie opened this weekend and my screening was packed, and the audience seemed to enjoy the movie. In fact you could hear some applauses as the movie ended. Maybe it bodes well for audience reception in NA? I don't know, take my anecdote as you will.
I said months and months ago it will be the biggest movie of this year.. I called it right last year way before anyone was interested in Barbie as well!
Animated movies are making more than $2B this summer is wild and then we got Longlegs pulling it for original stuff! Summer is doing well and we aren’t even done yet!🙏
@@BoredandDumb the reason I said that is because it has been a LONG time since animated movies were pulling in that match. At the same time the animated genre has been getting dogged on lately by execs and streaming so this is really good for it. A lot of contributing factors around economics and what not lead to some not wanting to go see stuff in theaters so all of this is good news.
30 years ago this week also marked the opening of the Filipino film "The Maggie Dela Riva Story: God... Why Me?", which broke records at the box office and became the highest-grossing local film in the Philippines despite its subject matter; some months later, "True Lies" would take the crown of the highest-grossing film (local or foreign) of all time.
I watched your Kill review last week then noticed it was only playing for two more nights where I live. Promptly saw it and enjoyed it. Glad I caught it before it left theaters. Thanks, Dan! Now I just need them to release Ketan Sodha's score for it and I'll be even happier.
Thank you for the charts Dan! Sorry for the delay in watching and commenting. I’m still trying to catch up on all the videos I missed last week due to Beryl. Looking forward to your review of the last two episodes of “The Acolyte”!
I imagine since he's been shuffling around the show that he's a bit more focused on getting that worked out for now. The summer box office season is also just a bit more busy in general. I'm sure they will come back again at some point, perhaps more sporadically/spaced out.
While movies and TV are a great way to escape, they should also reflect the mood of the times they are made in. The Captain America: Brave New World trailer and the next episode of The Boys both feature a Presidential assassination attempt. Pretty apropos of the dire and bleak situation of US and world politics right now.
I would argue the reverse - the darkest times need films and TV with the most hope. When times are good, you can satire and project dystopia. Star Trek flourished during the turbulent 60s.
@@captsfufpWe're not making mutually exclusive points here. A Captain America movie is ultimately going to be hopeful, and even The Boys is going to end with Homelander receiving comeuppance for his evil deeds.
I did see Inside Out 2 for the third time and there’s still a lot of audience watching it. But I don’t think Despicable Me 4 will earn more money like Inside Out 2.
Stateside it's impossible for Despicable Me 4 to make more money than Inside Out 2: at the end of its second weekend, Despicable Me 4 is at 211M in the US, Inside Out 2 on the other hand had already made 356M at the same point of its release. At this pace, Inside Out 2 could pass Frozen 2 worldwide and may reach 1.5B, while I think that Despicable Me 4 will close under 1B worldwide (not much under, but not a full billion).
I just wanna say they didn't even give horizon a chance. It was pulled from every theatre in Toronto in 2 weeks. I literally can't go watch it unless I drive to a township over.
I'm not surprised you didn't mention it because it apparently flew very under the radar, but 1994 Lion King was rereleased in theaters for the 30th anniversary. Didn't seem like a good time to rerelease it with so much business being taken by Inside Out and DM4. Would have made more sense if they did it in October or November before the "Mufasa" photorealistic film. It'll be interesting to see how that film does.
I recall Universal tagging something onto the last Jurassic World movie to bolster its box office with a double feature bill. I don’t recall the film, though.
Longlegs theater was packed on Friday. I haven't seen anything like that for a horror movie like this in a long time. I think if it had a higher theater count (only 2500) it might've stil held on to its per theater average and gotten $50M. Neon left money on the table!
I was wrong about DM4 and parents not wanting to see it a second time. Maybe Saturday's events had parents desperately wanting to distract their kids and a movie that doesn't deal with anxiety was the best choice.
Interesting. As a kid, I can't imagine caring that much about Saturday's event as you call it. Especially considering that kids these days have likely seen much worse.
@Im_Ish you are right, kids don't care, but parents sure as hell do and kids sense when their parents have anxiety. My nephew is 8 and may not understand what happened, but he knew his parents and the rest of the adults were freaking out. So, the family immediately wanted to go do something to distract him and ourselves.
@@Im_Ish Yeah, I am more shocked by the fact that people still have feelings about that kind of stuff. I've been completely numb to it for years. I blocked it out to survive. I think people probably just like funny movies.
It's still so funny to hear you say you "enjoyed" a movie like Longlegs. I still remember your well-reasoned discussions with the panels on SJ news about your distaste for horror in general. Roth and Toni Collette broke you in the best possible way. ❤💀🔪👻😱👾
@@DanMurrellMovies The last ten years have given a lot to appreciate in the genre, for sure. Thanks for nuanced reviews, this one in particular because I felt similarly. P.S. Are you still doing Indie Movie Theater highlights? If so, you should check out our very own Grand Lake Theater or New Parkway in Oakland.
It stings a little to see that MaXXXine didn't connect with audiences this summer, I was so looking forward to this one the most. I am so happy to see Longlegs doing so well, it came out of nowhere and I can't wait to go see it this weekend.
Ahsoka was lucky it got renewed for a second season on Disney+ as the only other non-Mandalorian live-action Star Wars Disney+ series to do that outside of Andor. It doesn’t look like The Acolyte will do that
I agree. Maybe they could use Qimir in another series, since it seems to me that he's the most successfull (not already dead) character with the public, but which other series...? Maybe it's time for Star Wars to focus and make good products; fewer products, but better products
I know the show is long enough already, but I think it could be interesting to include deeper looks into international markets if a movie is doing particular well there. For Example: Inside Out 2 is now the biggest Pixar movie in South Korea(beating Elemental from last year) and the third biggest animated movien after both Frozen movies.
Dan what I love about your show is sometimes I think I’m the only who notices some things but when you said the last minute drive in theaters for fall guy to keep it ahead of Garfield and I know there’s no unique experiences 😂
Dan, I was thinking that a great chart to add might be a cumulative version of the "Road to Recovery" chart. I think that would give us a better look at the overall strength of the box office through the year. The current chart is an interesting look at the week to week, but I think the cumulative would give a solid insight to the current actual strength of the market.
Longlegs was great, and I am thrilled to see it doing so well. That said, god some horror fans annoy me. Anything that doesn't fit what they have in their head going in, is either 'the worst horror movie with ever, or "derp overrated". I get the marketing for some of these films certainly doesn't help, but my God. We are living in the best time for horror maybe ever, and I can't believe I am saying that. I guess we will never please everyone.
46.34 the fact House of the dragon is ranked 4th, during that week is impressive, as it dropped on the last day (sunday) of the 10-16 June week nielsen is measuring. So i imagine that watchtime will be far higher for the following week.
@@DanMurrellMovies Yes, this also gives long running shows like stranger things a big advantage too in the charts vs a new show that only has one season. This makes the likes of Fallout even more impressive that it was able have the viewing hours it did for just 8 episodes.
We aren't going to get any jokes about 'LONG LEGS' in charting ?! 😅 My Dad joke meter went off when this movie debut for Jokes about it's box office discussion!
The genius movie by Neon with Longlegs was to strategically show it to the critics who’d give it an insane amount of buzz with these very exaggerated overly positive tweets
Hey Dan I just finished watching your Thor love & thunder video and you mentioned the Batman having a higher ticket price on average because amc used to charge more opening weekend. Is that still a thing or did it go away completely?
I hope critics give he film a fair and honest review..even if its negative...do not shy away for telling the truth..it is not destructive to give negative criticism...Chris Stuckmann should know that as well...But I hope it's good.
How is streaming profitable? How does a budget on a movie made by Netflix turn into value for Netflix? I'm lost as to understanding what it means to interpret the streaming numbers.
For the non-eagle-eyed viewers, aside from being Longlegs, Nicolas Cage also played all the other characters. He was so good, they even changed his name multiple times in the credits.
After Killers of the Flower Moon got a big Goose-egg at the Oscars, a lot of the "it's for prestige" crowd are nowhere to be found. How coincidental...
Interesting thought: with that drive-in story about about Fall Guy, I wonder if you can do a chart for the "unique exhibition" box office, if such data are available. E.g. drive-ins, open air theaters, second-run theaters etc. (maybe also PLF screens although that might not be in the same spirit). Would that be feasible? Could be slotted next to your limited-run box office chart, would belong in that segment.
For movies based on books it might be helpful to have some more nuanced qualifiers, like how well known the book is, how much the movie is like the book, and if it shares the same title. For example, I would consider Blade Runner original as it has a totally different title than the source material and is also very different in tone than the kinda zany tone of the Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep novel. This could apply to Oppenheimer as well. I don't know it off the top of my head, but the book Oppenheimer is based on is surely not as popular as the books for obviously book based movies like Harry Potter, LOTR, ect. Also, the Oppenheimer book has a different title than the movie. In conclusion, I think you should consider Oppenheimer original as the book it's based on has a different title and is not a well known book with a built in fan base.
re: "The Bikeriders is no longer in wide release" - What do you consider a WR Dan? Wiki gives me at least 600 but there seems to be contention, as someone else says at least 800. I thought "Wide" was about 1.2k theaters until a few months ago.
I don't mind if the sections of Charts gets broken up into separate videos. Maybe that's not great for algorithms, but I don't mind if Streaming is its own charts, even if it's just a short video like if you just cut the Streaming off of this episode. I'd also love if Coming Soon was its own weekly video. I know there's no way to cover everything from theatrical to streaming to (I'd love this) physical media releases, but even just an overview would be great for me. This has been: my two cents.
@@DanMurrellMovies I think that what people mean is... just regular video like it is right now...BUT split the streaming portion and uploaded separately...I assure you people will watch... My attention spam for videos is about 10-15 minutes.
If you think the timing for "Americas Burning" is bad, the finale this week for The Boys has a plot line with an assassination attempt on a President :x I bet the episode will get delayed, there will be a TON of news stories on it by Thursday.
I'm impressed by how much the marketing worked for Longlegs. My theater was packed. But let's see next week's drop off. It wasn't the worst movie I saw this year but it didn't live up to the hype in my opinion.
#AskDan (Is this still a thing?) I've been thinking about the inevitability of RUclips and livestreaming getting the same treatment of analysis as an industry that people like yourself give the box office numbers. The databases/datasets already exist (e.g. streamcharts and socialblade), but I'm surprised I don't see more people analyzing these numbers right now. I'm sure behind the scenes that corporations utilize them to determine things like sponsorship deals and advertisements, but I'm curious if you think a "Charts with Dan" style channel (not from yourself but others) will come about that focuses on analyzing these numbers from YT and livestreaming and making critical determinations about the direction of them? Perhaps that's an overbearing question to answer, but I'm curious of you're thoughts on it if you've ever given it any thought.
I always watch this show when it is published, but I was (and am) ill, so watching it late. Hopefully you'll still see this. I would like to suggest a change to the way you show some of the long term top 10s. Currently, if a film is closed, you have a little asterisk at the end of the name. I think you should make this more prominent. Maybe a padlock symbol, or the box being slightly grey? Just so it can instantly be seen which films are still live
Glad you mentioned the most likely budgeting model for Apple movies as just watched Fly Me To The Moon and theres no way this is a >$100m movie, i now assume the cost is down to the stars wages whereas i had assumed it was some kind of 'creative accounting' to inflate cost 'for tax purposes'
Impressive how Dan resisted the temptation to say 'We will find out next week if Longlegs has .... long legs at the box office. We were all thinking it tbh.
Oh. Just you wait.
I had a Long walk for Longlegs no pun intended
@@DanMurrellMoviesmy body is ready for it

I, for one, look forward to Dan talking about how long the legs are on LongLegs.
I hope Longlegs has long legs so we can get a video where Dan just says long legs repeatedly.
This episode marks the last time Dan will have to say "Boonie Bears: Time Twist" this year as part of his regular charts.
let's just call it the 'Despicable Minions' franchise, most accurate.
This is an anecdote but, for the past 3 weeks when I’ve looked, Twister has been in the top 10 movies on Max and the Apple charts. I agree with Dan that there’s enough excitement about Twisters for it to be a big hit

Sad that this is perhaps the last time Dan will ever say the familiar phrase: “Boonie Bears Time Twist”. It had a good six months.
Let's see if 'Longlegs' has the *LEGS* to be a top 10 summer hit 🦵
-_-
That’s a solid pun, but it literally has less than 1% chance of being a top 10 hit this summer
It's nowhere good enough to be top 10.
It took a dive from Fri-Sat and a C+ Cinemascore rating. It won't have legs. I thought it was okay, but not sure I'd recommend it.
at best it’ll do like 70mil domestic I highly doubt it’ll get to 90+ to get in the top 10
Man, Andor was by far the best Star Wars shows we've had besides Mandalorian. Really hope more people can appreciate it once season 2 drops.

12:00 I literally gasped at the overall money spent for such miniscule returns. Hope the prestige is worth it.
Longlegs essentially breaking even in its opening weekend is good the see. It’s a movie that I really enjoyed. & it’s a win for originality
I think Inside Out 2 & DM 4 are doing well because they are different types of family/kid friendly movies & also were reasonably spaced apart.
After the truly dismal start to the summer, it's really nice seeing the box office bounce back the last couple weeks.
I did see Inside Out 2 for the third time and there’s still a lot of audience watching it. But I don’t think Despicable Me 4 will earn more money like Inside Out 2.

Another new chart idea: list of all films that survived the 365-day chart at #1 throughout. Can be updated whenever a new film makes it.
Curious to see how word of mouth treats Longlegs next week.
I saw Longlegs not expecting much, but thought it was very good. I will try to see it again. It’s far less mainstream though in its style.
I watched 'Kill" based on your recommendation and it was awesome. I hope when they remake this, they keep it as brutal.

Longlegs theater was packed on Friday. I haven't seen anything like that for a horror movie like this in a long time. I think if it had a higher theater count (only 2500) it might've stil held on to its per theater average and gotten $50M. Neon left money on the table!
I really liked the breakdown of Apples movies. KotFM is the only one of them that I saw or was remotely interested in seeing

Do you mean on the weekend chart? It wasn't in the top 10, even with actuals coming in.
How is streaming profitable? How does a budget on a movie made by Netflix turn into value for Netflix? I'm lost as to understanding what it means to interpret the streaming numbers.
For the non-eagle-eyed viewers, aside from being Longlegs, Nicolas Cage also played all the other characters. He was so good, they even changed his name multiple times in the credits.
After Killers of the Flower Moon got a big Goose-egg at the Oscars, a lot of the "it's for prestige" crowd are nowhere to be found. How coincidental...
Great chart Dan!!!!!!
A lot of discovering going on haha!
Disappointed in the lack of mentioning the first part of Cobra Kai season 6 dropping this week
Whoops, must have overlooked it
Interesting thought: with that drive-in story about about Fall Guy, I wonder if you can do a chart for the "unique exhibition" box office, if such data are available. E.g. drive-ins, open air theaters, second-run theaters etc. (maybe also PLF screens although that might not be in the same spirit). Would that be feasible? Could be slotted next to your limited-run box office chart, would belong in that segment.
For movies based on books it might be helpful to have some more nuanced qualifiers, like how well known the book is, how much the movie is like the book, and if it shares the same title.
For example, I would consider Blade Runner original as it has a totally different title than the source material and is also very different in tone than the kinda zany tone of the Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep novel.
This could apply to Oppenheimer as well. I don't know it off the top of my head, but the book Oppenheimer is based on is surely not as popular as the books for obviously book based movies like Harry Potter, LOTR, ect. Also, the Oppenheimer book has a different title than the movie.
In conclusion, I think you should consider Oppenheimer original as the book it's based on has a different title and is not a well known book with a built in fan base.
re: "The Bikeriders is no longer in wide release" - What do you consider a WR Dan? Wiki gives me at least 600 but there seems to be contention, as someone else says at least 800.
I thought "Wide" was about 1.2k theaters until a few months ago.
I define it as 1000 theaters
@@DanMurrellMovies That's fair, thanks.
I don't mind if the sections of Charts gets broken up into separate videos. Maybe that's not great for algorithms, but I don't mind if Streaming is its own charts, even if it's just a short video like if you just cut the Streaming off of this episode. I'd also love if Coming Soon was its own weekly video. I know there's no way to cover everything from theatrical to streaming to (I'd love this) physical media releases, but even just an overview would be great for me. This has been: my two cents.
I did Coming Soon as its own video for several weeks - really in depth, tried to include everything. Nobody watched :(
@@DanMurrellMovies Well, I watched, but I understand there's no point if it doesn't get viewers.
@@DanMurrellMovies I think that what people mean is... just regular video like it is right now...BUT split the streaming portion and uploaded separately...I assure you people will watch... My attention spam for videos is about 10-15 minutes.
I think Twisters will get a good bump from premium format theaters like Imax, Dbox, and 4DX. My brother and I both have tickets to see it in 4DX.
If you think the timing for "Americas Burning" is bad, the finale this week for The Boys has a plot line with an assassination attempt on a President :x
I bet the episode will get delayed, there will be a TON of news stories on it by Thursday.
I dont think Maxxine will last longer in theaters, I'll hit vod soon
I was shocked by those Atlas and Madame Web numbers. People with Netflix will anything apparently.
I'm impressed by how much the marketing worked for Longlegs. My theater was packed. But let's see next week's drop off. It wasn't the worst movie I saw this year but it didn't live up to the hype in my opinion.
#AskDan (Is this still a thing?) I've been thinking about the inevitability of RUclips and livestreaming getting the same treatment of analysis as an industry that people like yourself give the box office numbers. The databases/datasets already exist (e.g. streamcharts and socialblade), but I'm surprised I don't see more people analyzing these numbers right now. I'm sure behind the scenes that corporations utilize them to determine things like sponsorship deals and advertisements, but I'm curious if you think a "Charts with Dan" style channel (not from yourself but others) will come about that focuses on analyzing these numbers from YT and livestreaming and making critical determinations about the direction of them? Perhaps that's an overbearing question to answer, but I'm curious of you're thoughts on it if you've ever given it any thought.
I always watch this show when it is published, but I was (and am) ill, so watching it late. Hopefully you'll still see this. I would like to suggest a change to the way you show some of the long term top 10s. Currently, if a film is closed, you have a little asterisk at the end of the name. I think you should make this more prominent. Maybe a padlock symbol, or the box being slightly grey? Just so it can instantly be seen which films are still live
Best wishes for a speedy recovery!
Probably going to see long legs tonight❤
Have you heard anything about the Boys finale being pulled off due to recent events?
Glad you mentioned the most likely budgeting model for Apple movies as just watched Fly Me To The Moon and theres no way this is a >$100m movie, i now assume the cost is down to the stars wages whereas i had assumed it was some kind of 'creative accounting' to inflate cost 'for tax purposes'
Despicable Me 4 will probably make 800 million
Horizon is flopping, BUT it is in the top 3 highest grossing films of all time to share a title with a McCoy Tyner album (after Inception and Sahara).
