Like the Kennedy assassination, the landing on the moon, or OJ’s white Bronco in a low speed chase up the 405, we all remember where we were on April 30, 2019 when Paramount released the first trailer for SONIC THE HEDGEHOG. There was a collective gasp heard around the world. Millions of “Sonic” fans were […]
The idea of releasing a movie on Thanksgiving holds tremendous appeal. A long five-day weekend with almost everything shut down but theaters is catnip for the studios. On top of that, if a film does well, the hope is that it will have enough momentum to carry it through to the highly lucrative Christmas season. […]
This is a momentous week. BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER debuts on the 6-Weeks Out Film Tracking Report. To commemorate its arrival, we are making this week’s report available for everyone to see. If you like what you see and want this sent directly to your email every Friday morning, sigh up here: […]
For the first time since July 8th, we have a new film at the top of the awareness chart. AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER surrenders the #1 spot, but not to BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER, BLACK ADAM, or HALLOWEEN ENDS. No, the film that takes the top spot with 65% awareness is none other than […]
Back in October 2015 when Netflix released BEASTS OF NO NATION, its very first original film, few would have guessed that streaming platforms would play such a huge part in the motion picture ecosystem. Even before lockdown, when Disney+ and Apple TV+ were nascent streaming services, it was clear that the shift from large to […]
On September 9th, there was an event so huge that it caused a ripple in the space-time continuum. The Earth fell off its axis. Perhaps you felt it. It was on this day that Disney released a teaser trailer for THE LITTLE MERMAID. To the dismay of a very vocal minority, in the upcoming live-action […]
How anemic has the late summer box office been? Unless DON’T WORRY DARLING or SMILE over-perform, this will be the first September since 2001 without a film opening above $20M. THE WOMAN KING got close with a $19M debut. But the celebration of KING as a box office win only speaks to the entrenchment of […]
We are thrilled to welcome ONE PIECE FILM: RED to The Quorum this week. RED, scheduled to open on November 4th, is the first anime title that we have tracked. And not a moment too soon. Anime titles, specifically those released by Crunchyroll, have been under-the-radar hits. Last month, DRAGON BALL SUPER: SUPERHERO debuted at […]
What do THE WOMAN KING, DON’T WORRY DARLING, BROS, and TÁR have in common? They all made their debuts at major festivals, premiering in either Venice or Toronto. These festivals are a rite of passage for high-profile fall studio releases—the films that the studios want to imbue with an aura of prestige and importance. So, […]
It’s been an eventful two weeks for DON’T WORRY DARLING. A study by The Quorum conducted just before its premiere in Venice showed that the recent controversies may be helping. Among those aware of the film, 37% said the headlines made them more interested in the movie, whereas 20% said they were less interested. We’ll […]
