    Why are you counting out Moana?

    Because La La Land is more Oscar-friendly (live-action musical, director of Whiplash, Ryan Gosling, etc) than Moana. 

     

    It'll likely win Best Comedy/Musical at the GG, while Moana won't even be nominated. Plus, it could get nominated for Best Director, Actor, Actress, Screenplay, Sound Mixing and Editing, while Moana most likely won't

     

    I just see La La Land getting more Oscar love, while Moana enjoys tremendous BO success to help top off Disney's already spectacular 2016.

    So it is gonna be one of those weekends, heh?

    Should do solid enough for the second weekend of May (traditionally a weak spot)

    1. Captain America - Civil War: $77 million ($300 million) 
    2. The Jungle Book: $18.5 million ($312 million) 
    3. Money Monster: $16 million 
    4. Mother's Day: $6 million 
    5. The Darkness: $5 million 

    Hopefully Nice Guys and Angry Birds overperform next weekend to offset Neighbors 2's $25-35 million OW.

  3. $435-445 million DOM puts it Deadpool, Zootopia, BvS and Jungle Book by a considerable margin and is a 50%+ increase from Winter Soldier. Plus, Dory and Rogue One might not pass that figure, so it has a chance at #1 for 2016 DOM.

     

    However, I'm thinking Dory and/or Rogue One will finish at least slightly above CW. 

     

    Either way, Disney's having a phenomenal year :lol: they' just might have 7 of the top 10 DOM spots for this year (Dory, Rogue One, Civil War, Moana, The Jungle Book, Zootopia, SW7's $284.7 million from 2016; Deadpool, BvS and Pets/SS/Fantastic Beasts taking the other 3 spots)

    MD is only down 32% from last week. A lot of people are severely overestimating how much it's going to drop this weekend.

    As the only film targeting women over 30 from now until August/September, it just might leg its way to $50-60 million DOM. 

     

    Unlike Valentine's Day, Christmas or Halloween, there's nothing about Mother's Day that makes people immediately discard it after the day passes. 

     

    Now, it'll just look like an appealing date night movie. 

     

    $7-8 million sounds reasonable for its third weekend.

    Rouge One has a strong chance of passing BvS's total before the year ends even. It has two more days of December than TFA and even if it only does half the gross it could pass BvS by December 31st.

    Disney's DOM for 2016 should surpass $2.5 billion. 

     

    Finding Dory: $330 million 

    Rogue One: $315 million 

    Captain America - Civil War: $300 million 

    Moana: $245 million 

    Doctor Strange: $155 million 

    Alice Through the Looking Glass: $140 million 

    Pete's Dragon: $100 million 

    The BFG: $85 million 

    The Jungle Book: $55 million 

    The Light Between Oceans: $40 million 

    The Queen of Katwe: $15 million 

    Zootopia: $10 million 

     

    Even with these fairly conservative numbers by 12/31/16, Disney would have $2.9 billion for the year.

    I don't see Apocalypse outgrossing DOFP domestically with such weak buzz and reviews.

    After seeing the reviews for Angry Birds/X-Men/Neighbors 2/Alice 2, I'm inclined to revise my May 2016 predicts :lol: 

    1. Captain America - Civil War: $480 million 
    2. X-Men - Apocalypse: $190 million 
    3. Alice Through the Looking Glass: $165 million 
    4. The Angry Birds Movie: $110 million 
    5. Neighbors 2: $90 million 
    6. The Nice Guys: $75 million 
    7. Money Monster: $25 million 
    8. The Darkness: $5 million 

    Hopefully June, July and August have some films that finish between $190-299 million DOM.

    I think legs will bebe good.

     

    There is no film seeming to break out and memorial day openers look poor.

    1

    Angry Birds could break out. And X-Men should still do $220-260 million DOM. I do admit that Neighbors 2 and Alice 2 are wild-cards.

    It probably has to do with a certain traditional celebration that happened yesterday.

     

    I can't remember what it was called.

    Still, $6.1 million is nearly 75% of its OW. And given its awful reviews, $3.5-4 million Sunday would make far more sense. 

     

    I don't expect it to crash next weekend, either. $40 million+ DOM should happen.

    Great for TJB. Goes up by 3.3m for just over 25m. ~42% weekend drop.

    I'd say Mother's Day had a more impressive increase.... $3.5 million to $6.1 million! 

     

    At least JB has critical acclaim and spillover from Civil War going for it... Mother's Day only has the titular holiday.

     

    It might get a 4x-5x without having to do much at all, since I don't think it'll drop much over the next month. As the only option for older women, it could potentially do $45-50 million DOM when all is said and done. 

     

    JB rebounded nicely, though. It should do $19-20 million next weekend and stay on track for $340-350 million DOM 

     

    Hopefully Zootopia gets a MD boost and gets to $3-3.5 million this weekend.

    With the 'summer season' barely started, does anyone highly anticipate any of the remaining summer 2016 movies? 

     

     

    Independence Day 2, XMen, Finding Dory, Mutant Turtles 2, Suicide Squad, Bourne, etc. will open big and quite a few will be enjoyable but there don't seem to be any upcoming 4 quadrant behemoths either. Normal blockbusters...which is fine.

    Finding Dory is definitely 4-quadrant... its G rating makes it accessible to young kids and if it ends up being an excellent followup, buzz could be through the roof.

    Passengers is gonna crush Rogue's legs, people.


     

      Reveal hidden contents

     

    Honestly, I think Rogue One, Passengers and Sing will all thrive off of one another similar to I Am Legend/Alvin/National Treasure 2 in December 2007.

     

    Rogue One - main draw/tentpole for Christmas/New Year's ($400-500 million)

    Sing - alternative for families in wake of Rogue One sellouts ($150-200 million)

    Passengers - alternative for adults in wake of Rogue One sellouts/crowd-pleasing Oscar contender (winning some technical Oscars) - ($125 million-$275 million)

     

    I do think Assassin's Creed will stumble due to those three looking more appealing options for families and adults alike. Silence will be more of a leggy Oscar contender, so its Christmas/New Year's numbers don't have to be huge.

    It's a bit too late to post lists here.

    Not really... we've only had 6 $130 million+ grossers thus far. 

     

    We have no clue how the majority of this year's top grossers will perform 

     

    If it were November, yes, but we're not even half way through 2016 yet.

    Well that's interesting! I would almost for sure bet on Kingsman 2 increasing from the first one, after the good reactions from audiences and critics.  

     

    That's pretty much what I think will happen Pirates 5 as well, maybe fatigue will even finally kick in internationally :)

    You have to consider all of the action movies scheduled in June:

    1. Bad Boys 3
    2. Wonder Woman 
    3. World War Z 2
    4. The Mummy
    5. Transformers 5
    6. Uncharted 

    With POTC 5 over Memoria Day weekend, and GotG2/Baywatch in early-mid May, the tentpole market is packed to the brim. 

     

    I don't see Kingsman 2 increasing with the massive amounts of competition. Kingsman 1 held well partially because it had essentially zero competition until Furious 7.

     

    $110-115 million would be solid considering those 6 are slated for June and POTC 5 will roll over into the first couple weeks of June.

    I don't buy that. I think having two big cbms opening before it plus the combo of ZOOTOPIA and THE JUNGLE BOOK has had an effect. The GA, particularly families, won't spend for a movie every month. This is the first time we've had FOUR 300 M films before the summer season.

    The fact that $160-180 million was always the realistic OW number for Captain America 3 might also have an effect.

     

    It's doing exactly what people expected it to do before the hype went through the roof. 

     

    People were predicting $120-140 million OW before hype kicked in. 

     

    I don't think $450-500 million DOM would be remotely disappointing considering that's a $190 million+ increase over Cap 2's DOM 

     

    And unless Dory or Rogue One break out, it'll likely be #1 for 2016.
