This past weekend we had a win with the movie industry, particularly the theatrical box office. We saw Godzilla vs Kong have a very successful weekend. Within 5 days, Godzilla Vs Kong earned $48.5 million domestically, and reached $285 million worldwide within 10 days. With the pandemic we are in, these numbers are very impressive, especially that the movie theater industry had not been doing very hot this past while.
With this recent success, I began to wonder if some movie studios might respond by moving a couple of their movies to an earlier date. I am not going to take the time to speculate which of those movies could be moved up, but I have wondered if maybe a couple of movies could move up to May to help fill in some of the voids, or one in May and then one in early June. This is pure speculation, they may not do it, but I would think at least there would be talks at the studios about moving a movie or two to an earlier date.
This would be awesome if this occurred. Again I don't know if this will happen, it may not, and there may not be any of these kind of discussions occurring, and if that's the case, then this is still a great win and we will have great movies to look forward to this summer. I am just glad for the life brought back to the box office and that there is still life in the movie theater.
