On the March 25, 2024 episode of /Film Daily, /Film editor Ben Pearson is joined by /Film staff writer and box office analyst Ryan Scott to talk about the latest box office numbers from the weekend and dive into the mailbag.In The News: Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire Mirrors Afterlife With $45 Million Opening WeekendGhostbusters: Frozen Empire Proves The Franchise Has Limited Box Office PotentialHow might Ghostbusters fare with Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire coming up?Dune: Part TwoImmaculate And Late Night With The Devil Both Set Indie Horror Records At The Box OfficeE-mail: Phil from Germany wrote in a couple of weeks ago, and mentioned something in his email that I wanted to highlight here. He says: “The podcast keeps mentioning physical media and its recent bigger relevance than expected. Keep in mind that both DVDs and Blu-rays decay over time. Many of my untouched or barely touched DVDs from 20 years ago do not play completely anymore. My “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy” (still sealed) and “Veronica Mars” (played once before) collections only played half the episodes when I revisited these TV shows last year, and those were not the only ones. Blu-rays decay slower than DVDs, so going for those and creating backups seems to be the best way to keep the favorites available.All the other stuff you need to know:You can find more about all the stories we mentioned on today’s show at slashfilm.com, and linked inside the show notes./Film Daily is published every weekday, bringing you the most exciting news from the world of movies and TV as well as deeper dives into the great features from slashfilm.com.
