Top Gun: Maverick Delay Raises New Fears of Mass Exodus for Fall Movies

New DVD releasedelay, exodus, fears, maverick, movies, raises

Paramount Pictures’ Top Gun: Maverick is not the first major fall movie to exit the 2021 release calendar. That honor belongs to another Paramount film, Clifford the Big Red Dog. Nevertheless, this latest pushback for the Tom Cruise sequel suggests that another round of mass Hollywood delays may be imminent as COVID-19 infection rates continue to rise. Top Gun: Maverick, which follows up on one of Cruise’s signature hits from the 1980s, was originally intended to release in summer 2020 until our first brush with the COVID-19 pandemic caused the spectacle to be delayed first to Christmas of that year…

While some of those fan frustrations can be attributed to their “But I want it now!” outlook, the disappointment, confusion, and even anger over this recent delay certainly seems to have something to do with recent updates regarding Cyberpunk 2077‘s development which complicate how fans are dealing with this information. For example, you may recall that CD Projekt Red recently confirmed reports that they’ve asked their employees to begin working…

Today, Nintendo surprised fans everywhere by announcing that they’re releasing Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light for the Nintendo Switch on December 4. Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light isn’t just the first game in the Fire Emblem series but a long-standing historical curiosity among many Nintendo fans.

New DVD releaseabout, million, office, opens, questions, raises, tenet

This holiday weekend, Christopher Nolan’s Tenet captured nearly 70 percent of the U.S. market share of movie theater tickets across the country. In normal circumstances that news would accompany a staggering box office figure—a Labor Day record-breaker to go along with the No. 1 debut. But during the current coronavirus pandemic, more than 50 percent of the market accounts for $20.2 million in box office receipts over four days. Is this the “new normal” or the first tentative step toward moviegoers slowly returning to theaters? It’s hard to say right now, but it’s just part of the story for Warner…
