This week we welcome INSIDE OUT 2 to The Quorum. With a June 14th release date, INSIDE can’t arrive soon enough. As noted above, WISH is struggling in awareness and interest, and the next Pixar film, ELIO, due in March, isn’t exactly lighting up tracking either. Since 2010, Pixar has consistently mixed originals (dark pink) […]
Is it possible that Disney had its Icarus moment in 2019? The Mouse House became the market share leader in 2016 and 2018 thanks to the 1-2-3 punch of Pixar, Star Wars, and Marvel. In 2019, Disney was so dominant domestically that, at 35%, its market share was more than double the next closest studio […]
We don’t often think of A24 films as having big openings. Most A24 titles open in limited release and expand out. Its three highest grossing films, EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE, UNCUT GEMS, and LADY BIRD, all opened in 10 or fewer theaters. When A24 does go wide, the story is less about the opening […]
Over the past week, at least four films have moved to avoid TAYLOR SWIFT: THE ERAS TOUR. Indeed, the concert film has complicated several roll-outs across town. It has also created some unique challenges for us in the film tracking space. Tracking involves surveying the general public and comparing those results to historical data, including […]
Let’s suppose for a moment that you have a movie that is weeks away from release, starring one of the most beloved actors of the past three decades. An actor who appeals to audiences of all demographics who just capped an award season run with a wholly satisfying Academy Award win for Best Actress. Fortunately […]
We certainly didn’t see that coming. If you felt the ground shake yesterday morning, it was not an earthquake. At least not the geological kind. It was the news that TAYLOR SWIFT: THE ERAS TOUR will be arriving in theaters on October 13th in AMC, Regal and Cinemark circuits. If there was a rumbling, the […]
What exactly is going on with AQUAMAN AND THE LOST KINGDOM? It is the followup to 2018’s AQUAMAN, which dominated the holiday season en route to a $355M domestic haul. Yet, it’s been largely radio silence from Warner Bros for the sequel. With only 113 days to go before its December 20th release, there is […]
Sometimes they’re based on shorts. Other times it’s a book. In some cases, they are entirely original. Regardless of the source, or lack thereof, the past 20 years has had its share of great science fiction films, including EDGE OF TOMORROW, ARRIVAL, INTERSTELLER, and DISTRICT 9. At the same time, it’s worth noting that sci-fi […]
Relativity is back with just its second release since shuttering in 2016. Between 2011 and 2016, Relativity pumped out decent-sized hits like LIMITLESS, SAFE HAVEN and FREE BIRDS. Under the stewardship of the larger-than-life Ryan Kavanaugh, the studio even took some big swings with expensive titles like IMMORTALS and MIRROR MIRROR. It could be argued […]
An Open Letter From The Quorum: For the past few years, we at The Quorum have been studying audience sentiment toward going to the movies. In October 2021, The Quorum published a study, in partnership with Cultique and Fanthropology, that showed that a large segment of the population feels a disconnect between the value of […]
