'Elvis' Thiab 'Dune' Qhia Vim Li Cas Warner Bros Yog Ntau Tshaj Li Batman Thiab Harry Potter

Kuv tsis paub dab tsi yuav tshwm sim rau HBO Max ntawm hnub no tus tswv lag luam loj hu. Kuv raug rhais ntawm "Egad, Kuv yuav xav tsis thoob yog tias HBO Max tau raug puas tsuaj" thiab "Zoo, tej zaum qhov no yog qhov kev tsim nyog tsim nyog raug kho raws li Hollywood paub tias streaming tsis yog 'ib qho loj haum tag nrho' pob tawb. Txawm li cas los xij, nws tseem tsim nyog sau cia tias Baz Luhrmann's Elvis nyuam qhuav tau nce txog $ 130 lab hauv cov nyiaj tau los hauv tsev vim nws lub ntiaj teb cume ze rau peb npaug nws $ 85 lab pob nyiaj siv. Nyob rau hauv lub ntiaj teb no grosses, nws zaum tom qab Bohemian Rhapsody (lub teeb-hauv-ib-lub raj mis $ 910 lab hauv 2018) tab sis ua ntej Txoj Kev Ncaj Ncees Sab Nraud ($ 200 lab hauv xyoo 2015), Rocketman ($ 195 lab hauv 2019) thiab Taug Txoj Kab ($ 186 lab hauv 2005) thiab (tshwj tsis yog kuv nco ib qho) txhua lwm yam suab paj nruag biopic.

Nws $ 105 lab cov nyiaj tau los txawv teb chaws yog qhov zoo dua ob zaug xav tias Elvis Presley siv nws txoj haujlwm tag nrho hauv Asmeskas. Elvis tau khwv tau ntau dua li Disney's Ntsha ($ 117 lab / $ 223 lab ntawm $ 200 lab pob nyiaj siv). Muaj ntau tshaj ib txoj hauv kev kom tau nyiaj ntawm cov yeeb yaj kiab. Warner Bros tuaj yeem thiab feem ntau ua tau nyiaj los ntawm ntau dua li DC Films franchise thiab JK Rowling hom. Yog lawm, raws li dais rov hais dua tej zaum ib hlis ib zaug, Warner Bros yog ntau dua Batman thiab Harry Potter. Tej zaum nws yog lub sijhawm los txiav txim rau lawv tag nrho los ntawm lawv cov phooj ywg Super Movies. Tom qab tag nrho, ib qho tseem ceeb ntawm tag nrho Marvel piv rau DC cov lus hais yog tias, tam sim no, Disney's theatrical tej zaum yuav luag tag nrho nyob ntawm MCU.

Txawm hais tias "DC nyob rau hauv kev tsis sib haum xeeb" zaj dab neeg tsis pom zoo tias Walter Hamada's post-Justice League khiav yog raws nraim li tau qhia thiab thov. Lawv muab me me, tsis tshua muaj DC flicks (Shazam, Joker, Noog ntawm Prey) thiab loj-pob nyiaj superhero spectaculars (Aquaman, Lub Batman, Wonder Woman 1984) thiab, frankly, ib tug uas yog ib tug ua lag luam ntev-shot ntawm ib tug blockbuster pob nyiaj siv (Qhov Chaw Tua Yus Tus Kheej). Tsis Muaj Covid thiab cuam tshuam txog kev hloov pauv, Wonder poj niam 1984 yuav tau txais txiaj ntsig zoo tshaj / qis dua $ 750 lab thoob ntiaj teb cov txiaj ntsig, Lub Batman yuav tau flirt nrog $800 lab thiab, ok, Qhov Chaw Tua Yus Tus Kheej yeej ib txwm doomed. Tsis muaj Will Smith + tsis Joker + tsis Batman = tsis muag. Lawv tuaj yeem them taus yuav dov cov tsuav ntawm R-rated James Gunn grindhouse flick. Lub SnyderVerse yuav tseem faus.

Hloov chaw, Covid tig Wonder poj niam 1984 rau hauv HBO Max sacrificial yaj. Ib qho kev xav tau rau cov ntsiab lus streaming tshiab tau tshwm sim rau Zack Snyder Kev Ncaj Ncees Pab Koomtes. Cov xov xwm amnesia-stricken txais tos cov yeeb yaj kiab uas yog David vs. Goliath zaj dab neeg ua tiav los ntawm ntau tus tib neeg pundits uas feem ntau ntxub. Batman v Superman thiab yus tua yus tub cheev xwm rov qab thaum cov kev txawj ntse yog 'zoo li Marvel.' Yog tsis muaj qhov xwm txheej tsis txaus ntseeg, Hamada's DC Films yuav zoo li ua rau muaj kev vam meej IP nyob rau hauv ib qho kev ua yeeb yam thiab ntau yam kev tso tawm slate. WB's 2018 slate was so damn success (Rampage, Game Night, Ocean's 8, Ready Player One, Crazy Rich Asians, The Meg, The Nun, A Star Is Born, etc.) uas Aquaman topping $1.1 billion yog icing ntawm lub ncuav mog qab zib.

Peb tab tom tos saib seb Disney tus thawj coj tam sim no mob siab txog kev ua yeeb yam sab nraum MCU thiab ob peb tus IPs tseem ceeb (Lucasfilm thiab Avatar). Meanwhile, txij li xyoo 2021, Godzilla Vs. Kong, Dune, Batman, Zoo heev Beasts 3 (thaum tsis muaj kev ntaus) tag nrho cov saum toj kawg nkaus $ 400 lab thoob ntiaj teb, nrog peb ntawm cov kev sib txuas ua ke. Lawv marketed ib Elvis biopic rau ib ncig ntawm $ 250 lab thoob ntiaj teb thiab tej zaum yuav muaj qhov tseem ceeb ntawm Oscar lub caij sib tw. Lawv tseem tuaj yeem tig Olivia Wilde's Tsis txhob txhawj Darling nyob rau hauv qhov ze tshaj approximation (hais lus hais) peb muaj Ploj mus ntxhais txij li zaj yeeb yaj kiab no tau tshaj tawm ($ 366 lab) khiav yim xyoo dhau los. Warner Bros. yuav tsum tau tso cai ua yeeb yaj kiab tsis tu ncua uas tseem tso tawm DC Comics cov yeeb yaj kiab thiab qhia es tsis yog lub khw superhero puv sijhawm.

Txawm tias thaum lub sij hawm grimmer DC, 2016 thiab 2017, thawj Zoo Beasts yog qhov kev tshuaj xyuas zoo $ 800 lab-plus ntaus, thaum nyiam Central Intelligence, The Conjuring 2, Kong: Skull Island, Nws thiab Dunkirk tau unmitigated smash hits. Tsis txhob cia WB tawm ntawm kev sib ntsib rau DC-txog qhov yuam kev (cov lus teb tsis yog "Batman" ib txwm), peb yuav tsum muab tsawg kawg li ntau qhov credit rau It tag nrho $ 700 lab ntawm $ 35 lab pob nyiaj raws li Justice League khwv tau $659 lab ntawm $300 lab pob nyiaj siv. Nyob rau hauv lub sij hawm ntev, kev vam meej ntawm Elvis yog qhov tseem ceeb tshaj qhov muag (er) kev ua tau zoo ntawm Super- Tsiaj. Yog tias koj xav tau cov yeeb yaj kiab uas tsuas yog txiav txim los ntawm lawv cov yeeb yaj kiab superhero, koj yuav tau txais cov yeeb yaj kiab uas tsuas yog ua cov yeeb yaj kiab superhero.
