But WDAS films have lots of co-directors? Frozen (Chris Buck, Jennifer Lee), Tangled (Byron Howard, Nathan Greno), Big Hero 6(Don Hall, Chris Williams) and Zootopia (Byron Howard, Rich Moore). How is that?
Japan will be the deciding factor if 1B WW will be reached. Over BH6 might be enough to push it to a billlion.
I see BvS doing 1-1.1 billion WW, so Zootopia only has a very slim chance of passing it WW.
I really hope Zootopia can sneak into 24 million atleast. 23 million looks more like the number at this point but I hope it can hold on better.
Heck I though last week that 35 milliom was the max that it'll do, but it did 37 million which is great. Hopefully it'll exceed my estimates again!
Everyone's using MoS as comparison to BvS, but that was a summer film.
why don't we use FF7? Both released easter weekend, both tentpole films. Both action-packed and highly anticipated
FF7 did 147M OW and ended its run doing 353 million. Basically 2.4 multiplier.
If BvS does 160 million OW, it might end up 384 million domestic using FF7 multiplier.
Keep in mind tho that FF7 was getting great reviews, See You Again helped the film's popularity also. BvS is getting lackluster reviews tho. Altho I'd say that its appeal is more four-quadrant than FF7.
