New to The Quorum: THE TENDER BAR
It’s been a while since we’ve seen George Clooney on the big screen. He hasn’t appeared on the big screen in over five years. We lost saw him in HAIL, CAESAR back in 2016. Clooney is returning with THE TENDER BAR, but it’s as the director. So we’ll have to wait a bit longer to […]
30 Day Alert: CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG
Three films, all slated to open the weekend of November 12th (CLIFFORD THE BIG RED DOG opens two days earlier on the 10th), are now within 30 days of release — the prime marketing window — which means if they’re gonna take off, this is when it will start to happen. For this report, we […]
The SPENCER posters are royally gorgeous.
Can we pause for a second and acknowledge the beautiful and evocative poster campaign for SPENCER? We were first treated to this beautiful, luxurious and unsettling teaser poster. Even if you don’t know that SPENCER refers to Princess Diana, it’s clear that this is her. Lately, studio marketing departments have been creating excellent character posters. […]
Does the success of VENOM: LET THERE BE CARNAGE forecast a “normal” 2022?
One of the more surprising stories of 2021 has to be the resilience of the box office in the face of the summer Delta surge. SHANG-CHI AND THE LEGEND OF THE TEN RINGS, F9, BLACK WIDOW all had huge openings while Covid cases were rising. FREE GUY, another huge success story, spent seven weeks in […]
New to The Quorum: MARIO
Truth be told, we don’t actually know the name of this movie. According to IMDb calls it the UNTITLED ILLUMINATION ENTERTAINMENT PROJECT (“I want to see that!”). The trades, and just about everyone else, are calling it SUPER MARIO BROS. ComScore, however, currently has it listed as just MARIO, so that is the title we […]
HALLOWEEN KILLS is finally looking like a box office slayer.
Too bad Universal decided on a day-and-date release Way back in July, the very first post published on The Quorum was about HALLOWEEN KILLS. Back then, we were lamenting the fact that the film was tracking well below its paygrade. Both awareness and interest were much lower than one would expect for a film of […]
Holiday Box Office Preview
SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME looks like a sure thing, but what else will join it at the top of the box office? The summer box office has wrapped, and the fall equinox has passed, which means it’s time for us to look forward to the holiday box office. This year, there are 11 films that […]
New to The Quorum: FINCH
Swap out a volleyball named “Wilson” for an adorable dog and somewhat functioning robot and you have FINCH. Ok, maybe that’s an exaggeration, though the trailer does hint at some similarities between CAST AWAY and FINCH. Add in the fact that FINCH was produced by CAST AWAY director Robert Zemekis and, well, you get it. […]
Trailer Callback: THE MATRIX: RESURRECTIONS
Awareness may not have moved, but interest went through the roof. We got our first look at the upcoming MATRIX movie when Warner Bros. dropped a teaser on September 9th. Ten days have passed, so it’s time to see how the trailer has impacted the numbers. On the awareness side, MATRIX didn’t get much of […]
