 Welcome back to the channel critical overlord here. So Mulan is setting major Headlines making major headlines with what's happening with Mulan and Disney plus and this whole back and forth about the fact that it's going on Disney Plus now, it's not going to theaters Disney Plus shocked the world last week with the announcement that Or this week rather with the announcement that Mulan would be premiering in Or premiering on Disney Plus sometime in September for $30 $29.99 now they did save themselves when they said that this $30 would be to own Now that's making it a lot more acceptable for some people myself included I still regardless didn't think the $30 price range was too outrageous Just me personally it's different different person to person especially if you're considering if you're gonna be inviting some people over That $30 price range isn't that isn't that far Unacceptable considering that those people you invite over would have been paying a lot more yet Your overall experience at the theater would have been a whole lot more than just $30 But getting is what I wanted to talk about the the fact that Mulan is like I believe a project with a budget of around 200 250 million if This movie performs well on VOD the way many are expecting it to This would be like this is one of the first guinea pigs to what could come what could come in the future We now not only is Mulan going there, but we have Antebellum is gonna be premiering in in September on on VOD So depending on how those projects end up I could easily see something happening with Halloween kills Because what we know now is that Halloween kills is gonna be coming out Next October because it got delayed a whole year now since it's since the pandemic has gotten worse And they just this is their way of responding to it They want to put the movie out in theaters and he wanted to be able to get seen by a large audience What I think is gonna end up happening though is That I wouldn't be too surprised if the success of Mulan makes and causes universal as well as Blumhouse to reverse the idea Primarily universal because they're the distributor. I wouldn't be too surprised if Universal turns around and they say they're gonna put Halloween kills on VOD Especially given the given the new relationship between universal and AMC It's not that far out of the rental possibility for Halloween kills to kind of switch its course of action and premiere this year Just on VOD entirely Maybe if the theaters open up because the theaters to my knowledge are supposed to open up AMC Anyway, and Rigo looking to open up sometime this month later this August in time for tenant Which is supposed to open around the first weekend of September now So if they open up and they're back in business and tenant performs well and then on top of that You have Mulan coming out on VOD If that all goes well and antebellum goes well because Halloween kills if from what I can recall Supposed to come out on October 18th or 15th of this year So if what happens is September is one of the biggest things to happen to any to both of these film projects with both Mulan Also tenant and then can't forget antebellum if all three of those projects perform well antebellum Of course performing well on VOD and Mulan performing well on VOD and then tenant performing well in theaters I could easily see there were them reversing their decision to have the project open up in theaters October release the release a trailer Sure, you're you're taking a huge gamble there now Because you're putting out the project you're putting out a trailer a month before the project release But honestly, there's already a lot of hype built up for Halloween kills I feel like there's already a lot of hype built up for it in a lot of anticipation Putting the movie out or putting the trailer out a month before you actually now plan to release it back in October this year I don't think that's the worst business decision I Think that I think that it could still perform very well in theaters If it does go to theaters because again depending on what happens with those three movies I could easily see universal reversing their decision and putting Halloween kills back up on the schedule to release this October possibly in a new date But I could see it happening and it's in theaters for a couple weeks and then it goes straight to VOD or It could skip theaters entirely and go straight to VOD because of how well Mulan performed That's where also very possible. I could easily see that happening and then they do a similar format where you pay you pay a certain dollar amount Not only to rent the project, but you're gonna be owning you own it digitally how they go about doing it I do not know what they would you do it on of course possibly voodoo All of these other services that we have would be no we can order and rent movies They could do it that way but $30 just to own the project digitally I'm still what's crazy is I I'd pay to do it and then I still go out and buy the physical media copy of it when it comes out Few months later or a few weeks later when that also in itself is gonna be around $30 because of how fresh it is Usually the new releases are for physical media around 24 to $30 depending on which format you get I'm still gonna do that because I'm still a diehard when it comes to physical media if everything involved in the internet craps out I still I still have my DVD player I want to still be able to entertain myself if I don't have access to this stuff that I have digitally That's why I still got this physical meeting also with it with the lot with the censorship that's going on and all these things that are being censored out got to get your physical media because they can't they can't censor that but Easily I could see Halloween kills ending up on VOD or back on their release schedule this year depending on what happens with Mulan Antebellum and tenant All of this is supposed to happen in September Easily I can see something happening with Halloween kills and then on top of that it it is interesting for to point out that again None of this is official. I just me speculating is important to keep this in mind geek nation is apparently gonna have Jason Blum on on their On their channel on this looks like it's going on on YouTube geek nation Jason Blum sits down with geek nation on August 15 And they're just talking about some Blumhouse films and then he's going to be given a he's going to be given a peak at Halloween kills And then he also apparently has a message now what that message could be it could be a variety of things August 15th There's a few days from now, but given everything that's going on I Want to say it's it's also possible It's it's possible on that date whatever happens on geek nation on this on this channel If this it looks like it's gonna be on YouTube with Jason Blum I could see him announcing Halloween kills being considered for VOD Depending on what happens with Mulan I could see him making that announcement not announcing that it's officially going to VOD But just making the announcement that the studios are weighing that option more than they ever have Because they're gonna wait and see what happens with Mulan what happens with tenant what happens with Antebellum they're gonna wait and see what happens because if the theaters are up and roaring again with Antebellum and then not Antebellum But tenant when it were when it releases next next month in September if nothing happens again bearing nothing happens And it doesn't get delayed again. I could easily see Universal saying you know what we're either gonna put this movie in theaters for a couple weeks Or we're just gonna go straight to VOD. I could see it happen I honestly think a lot of Halloween fans would be would be excited for it, of course I think the project would be very fine It especially again depending on what happens with Mulan. Mulan hasn't had If if I'm being honest Mulan hasn't had any marketing Mulan hasn't been advertised anywhere because of what's happening with the pandemic Mulan has just had posters up at theater. I've seen posters up around Just from Twitter Instagram Facebook I've seen posters and everything up for the project But I haven't seen any much of hype about it from Disney or anyone else involved with the project because of the pandemic And if Mulan comes out without any marketing or any real hype around it and it performs Astronomically higher than what they expected it to for especially for a VOD release Don't be too surprised if we find out in the few weeks or not even not even that a few days after That Universal is now going to release Halloween kills on VOD. I think that would be everybody's Best Halloween gift that you ever got and I know the only gift we typically get on Halloween is candy Universal turned around in response to Mulan and how it performs on VOD and antebellum and they decide to Put Halloween kills on VOD this October after delaying it to next year But bringing it back to this October I can see I can easily see that being the best gift for any of us Halloween fans and I would say when I'm talking about Halloween fans I'm not talking about just the the Unofficial holiday itself from October 31st That would be the best thing ever and I could see it happening given what happens with Mulan. I could see it happen I could see a lot of studios Turning around and going the VOD route if Mulan performs very well We won't have to wait a whole year for Halloween kills. That'll be very exciting That'll make my Halloween marathon that year or this year much more exciting because I'll throw in Halloween kills Into the mix. I can't wait to see this movie. So Given what happens, I think it's a possibility Do you guys think it's a possibility that Halloween kills could turn course of action and would still be released this year given if Mulan Has a successful VOD release in September Let me know what you guys think about all this down in the comment section below If you haven't already make sure you subscribe turn on post notifications that you never miss a video in the description I have links on my social media accounts on my Facebook Twitter and Instagram You can message me there to let me know if there's any movies news or reviews You'll let me to cover in the future with all that in mind guys.
