Re: BOX OFFICE LEAGUE APR-JUN 2023
They are still not as high as they should be, besides Guardians. I priced them way higher, suggesting some people are pricing them ridiculously low in order to have another dull Avatar/Wakanda round where we all pick the same 2 movies. If a film is guaranteed to make $300m we should be making them as competitive as possible, it's as simple as that.transformers2 wrote: ↑April 3rd, 2023, 8:33 pmMy god, the rest of the pricing panel is going to great lengths to prevent another Wakanda Forever/The Way of Water situation from happening Those Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3 and Fast X prices are outrageous.

Re: BOX OFFICE LEAGUE APR-JUN 2023
I agree with the general premise of pricing things high enough so that everybody doesn't end up with identical slates. This season just feels like an egregious overcorrection to atone for the Wakanda Forever/Way of Water combo 2 seasons ago, particularly in the case of something like Fast X which is a part of a franchise that has been on a downward BO trend for 3 straight films and is coming off the worst received installment since 2 Fast 2 Furious.
