    any actual source for this?

     

    seems a bit doubtful when it's free on disney+

     

    unless it's somehow counting disney+ subscribtions into its gross count.

     

     

    Wonder if he took the Iger comment about it being on-track to be their biggest electronic home video release ever (which maybe doesn't factor in revenue from physical releases?) and came up with a speculative number for it.

    I seriously have no idea how Avatar franchise achieved some crazy high BO and digital sales, but somehow generate little internet phenomenon as compared to other mega-franchise like HP, SW and Marvel or even DC. Do people just quietly liking Avatar franchise?  

    Amazing! Cameron ended Feige after all.

    If Oppenheimer lands at number 2 for the weekend, I think it will tie the record for most weeks of a two movies locked as one and two.

     

    The other examples I found are both during the Titanic run, with Tomorrow Never Dies and The Wedding Singer each taking runs of 3 weeks at number 2.

     

    If Oppenheimer gets it this weekend, it could set the record next week.

    Ghostbusters / Gremlins were #1 and #2 together for 6 weeks.

    "Hi Mom" didn't release in North America. Hi Mom got released in 11 markets (Mainly South East Asia, Oceania and UK). Rough $870M WW in these 11 markets. 

     

    I don't know whether to call it fair or not but with Strong North America, Barbie is breaking through it. Though Barbie won't make $870M OS like Hi Mom.

    I guess we can speculate how much NA and other markets might have contributed if released there.

    Wrong. You would know that eventually it would show up on network TV.

    Not necessarily that easy or quick back then, though. GWTW wasn't first shown on network TV until like 37 years after its initial release, and then it became the highest rated program in TV history up to that point. I think quicker turnaround started happening in the late 60s / early 70s with some movies airing like 3-4 years after initial release (which I think was pretty standard up through the 00s) and even then stuff like Airport and Love Story network broadcasts became among the highest rated programs ever at the time as well.
