Asian Incel:The Movie probably broke even. it did amazingly at the box office compared to most films the last 2 years, and basically signalled to studios that audiences are desperate to go back to theaters, it basically proved that the box office would go back to normal if people weren't incentived to stay at home, basically it was the bunt sacrifice. ever since that film the studios moved their schedules about and 2022 went from looking like another shitty year where the domestic boxoffice is as depressed and small as it was in the 70s, to going back to 2000s era at the very worst.
Hell just October was roughly on par with 2009-era box office, and september was in the 90s-era in terms of gross. This also really helps with forecasting for the studios themselves, obviously if the box office was going to stay under $4 billion for the rest of time, superhero film budgets would drop to the point where they'd be on par with porn parodies from a decade ago, and every film would be as dogshit as the ones netflix releases. but now studios can sort of see how streaming services and theatrical releases can co-exist. Which means they can and will keep releasing these $200 million productions, hell we still don't have word on China's view of their films, but if the eternals is anything to go by, marvel is perfectly fine telling them to get fucked from here on out if need be. no more iron man 3 extra hour of footage.
As for Pete, just based on what's been projected its going to be the first marvel film that is "back to normal" box office wise, obviously 20-25% less because China won't be there to prop it up, but it will probably be the first billion dollar grossing film since ROTS, the shitload of actors returning and just the story itself means people will be flocking to it. its pretty much been the only film people have been hyped for in the MCU since FFH was released.
all signs point to it basically being the start of phase 4 really anyways, the other films were pretty much the pre-season/padding episodes. if the Spidermen don't put asses in seats than Feige would probably pull a Budd Dwyer, but again tracking shows that people are so hyped for this film that a surprisingly high chunk of the population would pay $100 just to see it now, 4 weeks early.
