  1. An ambitious and fascinating project, but also very risky in my opinion. The cast, however, is incredible, especially Keoghan and Quinn.

  2. Feels like people are going to show up for the first one (I guess Paul McCartney?) and the John Lennon one, but the other two are going to bomb… It’s hard enough getting someone to go to the theatre once a month, let alone once a week.

  3. Sony owns The Beatles music catalogue so one way or another this is probably going to be a success for them.

    From a Box-Office perspective music biopics usually do a lot better with a big name behind it (Bohemian Rhapsody, Michael, Elvis, etc) so in that sense it should perform well in theaters it just remains to be seen if the release format works out.

    I still don’t understand why they’re releasing all 4 movies theatrically in same month. It just seems like such an obviously bad business decision. Why would Sony agree to this? I’d get it if these were on streaming.

    I hate that we’re getting four of these… at least we’ll have a few more Greig Fraser movies that I’m sure will look amazing.

  6. I still think releasing all four of these the same month is a mistake, Rothman. For God’s sake, at least give each one four weeks to breathe. 

    But I trust the guys who greenlit *Morbius* and sold off *KPop Demon Hunters* know what to do.

  7. I refuse to watch these films because they are preventing Greig Fraser from shooting The Batman Part II. I won’t watch them out of spite.

    Seems like all four will release on April 7, 2028. I don’t think most people are going to see all four in one weekend. I’d say space it out, but whoever gets shown first will make the most money.
