DUNE: PART THREE ticket sales for regular showings had an excellent start. Starring Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, it’s selling better than Christopher Nolan's THE ODYSSEY. We’re projecting a $100M+ domestic opening weekend, and $120M+ is not out of reach.

CLAYFACE debuts with an impressive 3.7 out of 5 stars on Letterboxd. Great news for @DCOfficial as it’s the third best-rated DC film this decade, only behind THE BATMAN (4.1) and SUPERMAN (3.8). Good reception means CLAYFACE may overperform this weekend.

CLAYFACE first reviews was published by @Josh_Wilding and is pretty negative, only 2.5 out 5. @RottenTomatoes published it but right after it was removed, without explanation. If first reactions were misleading and CLAYFACE isn’t that good, a $25M debut may not happen.

CLAYFACE is now tracking for a $25M-$33M domestic opening weekend on a budget of just $40M. First critics reactions are excellent and it may be another win for horror this year.

Disney’s WHALEFALL bombed at just $8M domestically and an atrocious $17.5M debut worldwide. Holding a $60M budget, it needed $150M to break even. Since bought by Disney, 20th Century had its Marvel IPs stripped away and accumulates numerous bombs.

STREET FIGHTER bombs at the global box office debuting with just $51M on a $80M+ budget, lower than the $70M opening that trades were forecasting. With a $70M+ marketing, it might not even reach a $100M total and may lose nearly $50M.

STREET FIGHTER unsurprisingly scored weaker-than-expected previews, bringing in just $4M. It’s less than half of RESIDENT EVIL’s pre-release shows ($8.8M). With an $80M+ budget, it needs $200M to break even, starting with a projected $60M+ global debut.
