But with the guys getting some ad time? I think 80 might be a ceiling.That feels pretty high to me. Dune and Shang-Chi opened in the $70-$75m range, and I really don't get the feeling that Ghostbusters: Afterlife is as exciting to the public as either of those movies, OGBs or no (and I would also be very surprised if the OGBs had any noticeable effect on the box office at all, much less a $20m difference).

Even the 2nd film seems to have a decent following(anecdotal but an NBA player named Brook Lopez commissioned a painting for the Bucks championship & based it off the final image of the Vigo painting when the GB’s appear angelic, and the Twitter post on the bucks page was just full of regular people quoting the movie. Deep cut quotes too. Really surprised me).RichardLess wrote: ↑October 25th, 2021, 11:43 amI can’t even begin to guess what the opening weekend of this will be. If they continue to not show the OGB’s?

I find it harder to judge how the movie is going to open now that it's been delayed a year, because on one hand, it threw the marketing campaign for a loop, and on the other hand, it feels like people are desperate for big movies, especially anything they were waiting for. I still think $50m would be satisfying to Sony, and seems within reason.

There's no way something like Dune has the fun family appeal that Ghostbusters has, and how many casual Marvel fans (let alone general moviegoers and families) knew what Shang-Chi was before the movie came out? It did well because of the Marvel brand but also because enough people were ready for a fun time at the movies, despite renewed fears over the Delta variant cropping up. If anything, I think Venom is a closer comparison - I didn't get the feeling people were that excited for it and yet it blew away expectations with $90 million, a sign that even more people were comfortable hitting the theaters again.

It's likely something that was scored and recorded by one of the trailer music companies.

Glad it's not actually going to be in the film like that.mrmichaelt wrote: ↑October 25th, 2021, 7:21 pm Another diy video (with score and part of Proton Pack testing scene released before).A minor clarification, as noted by Jason at Ghostbusters News, the version of the theme featured in the trailers isn't part of Rob Simonsen's score for the film.

I don't want yuck anyone else's yum, but I'm fine with this. The piece is fine on it's own, but I didn't think it meshed with everything else we've heard. Hearing a triumphant return of the theme song now would have lessened the impact of whatever the film will actually use if we heard it this far out from the film release.
