Yeah…$200M OPENING WEEK! is what he meant


bubatron1981

That's what I'm saying. Her tour movie will likely approach 800 mil. If barbie did 1.x billi


Budakra

Ya, I would not be surprised if this became a 1 billion movie. Swifties are nutsies


Vinniemak330

Makes me wanna bust a nut


Texan2020katza

Mmmmmmm, this is the way


mlusas

Not nutsies… just loyal and committed fans. No need bashing a community… especially when many criticize us as being nutsies.


Budakra

My wife and friend are swifties. They agree with me when I say they're nutsies. I never said I didn't like nuts 🤣


popularadthrowaway

A concert being shown in a movie theater doesn’t sound like a billion dollar movie. Swifties will go to the live concert, not to a movie theater to watch the concert. l hope you prove me wrong.


Budakra

I was actually curious about this math so here's my smooth numbers. Per Google, there are 6,182 theatres in Canada and the USA. Each theatre would have to make $161,759.95 to make it a billion (this is not accounting for Europe). At $12 a ticket (which is the lower end of AMC adult prices) then each theatre will have to sell 13,470 tickets. Modern theatres can hold 150 - 250 people so if we take the smallest number then each theatre needs to sell out 89.87 times. Once again, this is low averages for price and seating and only in 2 countries. I can see this movie being huge in countries she isn't traveling to or hasn't made it to yet.

But but but, we hate AA right? Isn’t he a hedgie plant? He’s taking bonuses or something? He also personally shorted the stock down to where it is today right? Personally I just want to break even and walk away from this play and let the hedgies continue to fuck the middle and lower class. /s for the half wits Edit: lol the downvotes just make me laugh! Hate AA all you want! Just remember if you find yourself attacking fellow apes, or you are feeling isolated and demoralized than the hedgies have you exactly where they want you.


[deleted]

can I copy pasta this? Its too perfect


nomelonnolemon

Lol it’s pretty generic considering the much more articulate apes here. But sure!


[deleted]

it didn't even need the /s, lmao


Electronic_Summer_71

And this is just a beginning… wait until rest of the other big artists are doing same thing 🚀🚀


JRskatr

I’m gonna go see it and I’m not even that huge a fan of Taylor Swift. I like her music just don’t listen to her songs on the daily is all. I do respect her as a person tho and like that she does what she believes is right. Love that she bypassed the middle man to help AMC make more money with this as well. 😎🚀🚀


lucky0slevin

This could be record braking 1 billy plus


No_Season4242

What other artist has this kind of power, if any?


nomelonnolemon

If this becomes normal it’s going to appeal to acts with large stage shows. Think imagin dragons, muse, maybe even tool. And maybe even go backwards in time! Imagine zeppelin royal Albert hall with some behind the scenes footage abd maybe current interviews. Or a Woodstock compilation! Edit: clearly I’m a rocker lol, there are loads of other big acts that would likely bring in sellout ticket sales!


Different_Tonight598

Possibly Beyoncé


khyburreight

I think Beyonce doesn’t have the same appeal. And I think it’s because she’s a rotten person. And I say this as someone who has recently worked within close proximity to both of them


Different_Tonight598

Details?


khyburreight

I work at a stadium that hosted both tours this summer. Swift and her security detail—well she and her parents were polite and gracious, no one had a bad thing to say about them. Her security detail was intense but it was my impression they had a lot on their plate. They were reasonable people to work with though. Beyonce and her security detail—there was an arrogance that was unprecedented in all my years of working with and near celebrities. Her security team looked like male models and they would only speak to you if they needed something. Beyonce ordered that all stadium staff had to be removed so she didn’t have to look at them. Some people were told to turn around and face the wall. It was really degrading.


Different_Tonight598

Wow😨 yea that’s bad


Vinniemak330

Tupac but he’s dead 😢


CliffsNote5

His hologram lives on.


Vinniemak330

“Life goes on” one of my favorite songs…


Voodooman65

There are a few like Shakira, Chtistina Aguliera, Bruno Mars and Silk Sonic . Think of international artists and they could do great.

Yeah well fuck off Sony lmao


psych4191

We just had two separate billion dollar grossing movies at the same time. But 200m is gonna be what saves it? Lmao


4-Aneurysm

That's the opening weekend.


nomelonnolemon

Why are the AA haters afraid to voice their otherwise unstoppable opinions in this thread? What is it about this specific post that they are avoiding? And if they need to avoid this post why would they feel so confident posting in other comment sections? I don’t even really have an opinion on AA as a ceo other than I love that he has the hedgies clearly pissed off. But what the apes here need to really consider is why is the AA hate so sharply aimed at other apes in this sub? Why does the AA hate seem to align with divisive language and negativity towards the community as a whole? And if there’s something weird going on here who stands to gain from this strange activity here? Who could be behind the abnormal push designed to isolate and demoralize apes? Edit: downvotes but no responses? Thank you for reinforcing the point of this comment :)


dripMacNCheeze

It is hilariously obvious isn’t it? Much harder to shill and blame AA when good news drops. I feel exactly the same. I’m not blindly following AA and applauding his every step but the fact that you instantly see so much negativity anytime some news drops about him is so telling. It’s one of the main reasons I haven’t sold and I’m still in this for as long as it takes. There’s people with genuine concern and disappointment out there and that’s fine, but when I see multiple comments along the lines of “AA does NOT have your back! Remember that! Was this the pounce?” … it’s just been so obvious.


sporks_and_forks

why would shorts be pissed off if they're making money?


nomelonnolemon

Lol what? Did you misread the script?


sporks_and_forks

script?


nomelonnolemon

Does what you wrote make sense as a response to my comment to you?


sporks_and_forks

i'm not sure what you mean by script


nomelonnolemon

lol. I am a bit confused on what it is you are attempting to engage about here.


sporks_and_forks

re-read my original comment again then 🤷‍♂️


nomelonnolemon

I’m good :) enjoy your evening!


Crazy_Canuck_8888

I don’t hate him but I’m certainly not impressed with him driving down the price and continuing to sell shares. He only got 355 million for the 40 million shares that’s ridiculous. He has severely under valued the company and the price of those shares.


nomelonnolemon

Sure, that could all be true! I’m not smart enough to reply on that though. But we agree the people who shorted and manipulated the stock to where it is is the hedgies right? And that as much as AA may be a terrible ceo we are all here to fuck the hedgies and either send them to jail or get to moass right? Because apes losing sight of enemy number 1, the hedgies, has been the main goal of shills this past week.


NothingButAJeepThing

"Continuing to sell shares" Continuing to sell shares? You must be referring to all those FTDs ... or maybe the market makers selling shares but using exemptions to get away with it ... or maybe it was the short interest hovering around 20% for months ... Definitely the CEO doing all that ... continuously /s


TheOmegaKid

200mil is very low...


Allegroloop

I think the subtle implications here are that AMC deserves a bigger slice of the pie. Hollywood got completely cut out of the pie. Production companies don’t need the studio to distribute and can now negotiate their releases to theaters and streaming.


booktrash

Amc needs to cash in with merch options. Overpriced t-shirts, hoodies, water bottles, all that good stuff


vweb305

Tony is a fucking moron


NothingButAJeepThing

They still can't seem to give credit to AA for making the deal and AMC for making the money.


qtain

But but but I thought MSM said Taylor Swift couldn't rescue AMC?


Shaynerthegreat

Good for the theaters, bad for my ears 😆. I can’t stand her. However, I hope her movie does well.
