Summary

🔥 RECORD BOX OFFICE! Avengers DELAYED! ANDOR Creator BLASTS Marvel?! 🔥
It’s a HUGE episode of The Kristian Harloff Show — and we’re diving into some of the biggest stories shaking up the movie industry this Memorial Day weekend!

🌴 First up, Disney’s live-action LILO & STITCH (2024) shocks the world with a massive $183 million 4-day debut, breaking the Memorial Day box office record and outperforming even Top Gun: Maverick! Is Disney finally back on track after recent misses like Snow White?

💥 Meanwhile, Tom Cruise’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning rockets into theaters with a franchise-best $77M domestic opening. But with a $400M budget, will it break even?

🕷️ Marvel fans brace themselves: Both Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars have been officially delayed by 7 months each — and the ripple effect could impact the entire Multiverse Saga. What does this mean for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, The Fantastic Four, and the future of the X-Men in the MCU?

🎬 Plus, Tony Gilroy, the brilliant mind behind Andor, isn’t holding back. In a new interview, he calls out Marvel’s formulaic storytelling, comparing their obsession with macguffins like the Tesseract to shallow plotting. Are audiences finally burning out on the MCU’s old tricks?

📉 And we’ll also touch on the latest box office performance for Thunderbolts, Final Destination Bloodlines, Sinners, and more.

🎙️ Topics include:

Lilo & Stitch’s box office blowout

Mission: Impossible’s record-breaking debut

Avengers delays & Marvel’s updated release schedule

Tony Gilroy’s harsh Marvel criticism

Is the MCU losing its magic?

Thunderbolts, Final Destination, and Sinners updates
