Are we calling the new Spider-Man a Sony movie? 

Sony for money, but Disney creatively?

yeah although Disney gets all the merchandise spike revenue

I somewhat disagree with this given 2017 will get another $125M+ DOM from R1 plus probably another $550M+ from Episode VIII before January 1, 2018. I actually think that will pretty much even out. Now, will there be a Zooptopia? Jungle Book? Finding Dory? Moana? Doctor Strange? I'm not sure.

 

But, Disney has a hell of a slate in 2017 with....

Beauty and the Beast (will gross more than Jungle Book DOM)

Pirates of the Caribbean 5 (????)

Thor 3 (Will match or exceed Doctor Strange DOM)

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 (Will match or exceed Civil War DOM)

Cars 3 (Will gross nowhere near Dory DOM)

Coco (Could be a sleeper hit from Pixar)

 

I'm sure I'm missing a few other too. Does WDAS not have a release schedule for 2017? If so, that'll be the difference given Moana and Zootopia will combine for close to $600M DOM.

Obviously Rogue One is going to dominate January, but I was saying that 2017 will start off worse than 2016 did because R1 is nowhere Close to TFA and the January slate Looks weaker than last year. I personally think there's a good chance 2017 sets a new yearly record again, but we'll have to wait and see.

$18.5m and $16m

For Rogue One and Sing, I assume. The latter is performing like Stuart Little on steroids.

So about an 18% drop for Rogue One. Pretty much in line with expectations. Sing is starting to become a bit of a monster, though.

I think we shouldn't have written off $300M for Sing so soon. Having a dead January in terms of competition only helps.

Sing isn't hitting 300M. Come on now.

I just need BOM to include SMH in its MCU lists for neurotic purposes.

I don't know, it's gonna be at around $185M by the end of Monday? And there isn't much of anything worth seeing in January this year. Having insane staying power until The Lego Batman Movie (especially with another 4-day holiday coming up in two weeks) doesn't seem impossible.
