Honey, you don't have to ask him questions every time a new number comes out lol. You can make your own conclusions.

Can't wait to pester the family to watch this as our Christmas movie. Hopefully it works!

Thought I was in the Beetlejuice thread with all the repeating lol

GOATed marketing tactic

lmao what

Well next time if you see an offensive post, you should hit the Report button. I always try to do my best to check every potentially ugly thread, but sometimes thing slip through the cracks. I do have a life outside this place after all. Reporting on stuff makes things way easier on the staff. Because yeah, Claire posting that is offensive and violates rules. But how will I know she posted that unless you tell me?

Moderation By the way we are done with this whole sexist nonsense of “MARVEL IS FOR MEN” and “WOMEN NEED A LOVE INTEREST”. This garbage wasn’t funny when The Marvels came out and it’s certainly not funny now. Continue further and you will see a thread ban.

lol chill out dude

This domestic or worldwide?

This! Like without X-Men's influence, there's no Fantastic Four or Daredevil. Which hey, they were hits at the time, even if they weren't the greatest. Marvel Comics wouldn't be out here realizing the stable of heroes they had and wouldn't go independent. And again, Kevin Feige got his start with the X-Men movies. Without those movies, would he be at Marvel Studios in the first place? That's a legit query right there.

X-Men more than doubled Blade's box office. And despite the attempts at making things "grounded" and "realistic", the X-Men movies were far more identified and promoted by their Marvel branding than the Blade movies ever were. If anything, Blade was advertised less on the Marvel brand and more on just being a Snipes action movie. Plus, the first X-Men came out at a time when the only superhero movie character making any sort of money was Batman. And even then, we were post-Batman and Robin. By this point, superhero movies were completely dead. I don't really see why we're downplaying one of the biggest hits of the year. A movie that, at that time, had the sixth biggest opening in box office history. Now I'm not saying it was the main impetus why Marvel became as big as it was. Spider-Man was a guaranteed hit no matter what. But it certainly did a lot to make Marvel popular and cool with today's kids. Hell, the first X-Men was Kevin Feige's first job. You can argue that these movies could have grossed more, but without X-Men, we literally wouldn't even have The Avengers or Avengers-level hits. So there.

What are you trying to say about BOT, hmmm? 😠

Well if it only reaches 99, I guess Ryan Reynolds is out of a job. How sad.

We're so close to Lion King getting dethroned. STAY IN LINE

Ready for the 100M second weekend to come in with actuals lmao

Nobody on Film Twitter will care mate.

350 should happen. Might get to 360 tbh.

Alien will probably stop its run, but is beating out Everything Everywhere (77.2M) still a possibility?

Roughly 80% of the time I see people bring up inflation here, it's typically just trying to downplay a movie's success or just to instigate a fight. Obviously the metric isn't totally invalid, but I do often feel like I have to sideeye people when they bring it up. It was especially annoying back in 2019 when Marvel nerds and Cameron nerds were trying to use inflation to dog on each other's movies, even though Endgame and Avatar were both objectively massive hits.

Where are the flowers for Free Guy bringing back “Fantasy”? Mariah’s best bop ever imo
