[. I'm sure same day streaming are going to take a bite out of the box office results but this isn't really a good film to base future figures on. Black Widow came out 5-8 years to late, it's a mediocre film at best, the audience are becoming burnt out on the MCU, AND we are still in the middle of a pandemic! I agree with what you say about streaming having an effect on theatrical takings but Black Widow is by no means a mediocre movie. As for your claim audiences are “burnt out” by the MCU, what exactly are you basing that in? By your own argument you can’t judge things by Black Widow (which, aside from the simultaneous availability on streaming services, also opened when theatres were still imposing very restrictive conditions and the pandemic generally too). From what I heard its a mediocre movie. The reviews Ive seen backs that up. But I guess that's subjective. I believe Spam Jam 2 did better at the box office. Ah, so oh haven’t even seen it? Wow. I can think of plenty of terrific movies that reviewers have hated or that have under-performed at the box office. Sure, there are plenty of films that got poor reviews that I ended up liking once I saw them. But I know what I'm getting with an MCU film. I'm not a fan of SJ to begin with, so she's not a big draw for me. I'm tired of these big CGI films. Enough valid points were made in reviews that show I would not be able to suspend my disbelief.
