The Fall Guy’s trip box office performance was far below what was anticipated for the start of the summer movie-going time. This drove the yr- to- time field office down 43 percent , compared to 2019.
Worse case estimates had Fall Guy beginning at$ 30 million. Best case predicted as high as$ 40 million. Nope —$ 28.5 million. Worldwide, it grossed simply$ 65.4 million. Crack- also is good around$ 450 million, and there is zero possibility of that.

Rush till you hear what came in second place at this week’s box office. But initial …
Compared to last year’s unsatisfactory box office performance, 2024 is down 22 percent.
Please, please, please do n’t buy the spin from the sycophantic entertainment media. The problem is no streaming, the pandemic, or a lack of goods. The problem is this …
Hollywood does n’t produce the kind of films that people want to see.
There was streaming in 2019.
Three years have passed since the crisis began.
This year, there have n’t been any short-lived wide releases.
The problem is the allure of the product , — the item is shows, and elections prove citizens are falling out of love with the shows.

For almost a decade, shows have disappointed us, insulted us, sought to destroy the ignorance of our kids, and made us miserable with all the homosexuality and teaching. For nearly a decade, our heroes ( Indiana Jones, etc. ) have been emasculated, the reports have been dull, and the figures useless and virginal (unless gay ). For almost a century, instead of exiting the drama elated and enlightened, we have exited disappointed, deflated, insulted, and feeling ripped off.

The things we most love about the movies — adventure, sensuality, common themes, escapism, and memorable characters —have been exterminated in favor of boring, easy- thinking, pedantic, left- wing Puritanism that divides and bores.

Top Gun: Maverick, Spider- Gentleman: No Way Home, Sound of Freedom, Barbie, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3., Oppenheimer, Super Mario Bros.

The Fall Guy felt like nothing more than magic, and those titles demonstrate that people still yearn for magic.  , It looked like just another hollow, CGI’d, overlong, overstuffed piece of ironic distance.

More people are seeing a bad movie at home than the garbage in the past two decades, which once again proves that people do want to go to the movies. The only thing preventing them is the scheming movie-making scheming.
