Numba Wan blockbuster

Can Aquaman take out Civil War and Skyfall worldwide? That would be glorious.

Projections gone up to $1.1 billion worldwide lol. It's making more than The Dark Knight Rises.

Hey mods, where is the weekend thread?

I'll be happy like Trump winning the election if Aquaman makes $300 million dom and $1 billion worldwide.

I believe Aquaman can leg it to $300 million during the holiday season and barren January. I think it broke the $500 million sound barrier already. This is a big win for the DCEU. They should build and build upon this success. The MCU is running out of ideas and coming close to the end. They say Avengers 4 will conclude the franchise. The DCEU will replace the MCU to become the highest grossing franchise and the comic book staple for audiences at the theaters.

$500 million worldwide by this weekend. That's insane and has a high chance of making $1 billion.

Seafood dinner with oysters, lobster, unagi and calamari and a late night showing of Aquaman is the perfect combo.

I smell a glorious opening for Aquaman this weekend. The movie event of this Christmas baby.

Only $30 million for the 5 days. No boner for Marry Floppins

They waited too long to release a sequel for both films. The anticipation wears off and people are less hyped to see it. I think 4 years should be the minimum amount of time to release a sequel.

There's a lot of competition in foreign markets too. Big tentpoles like detective pikachu, godzilla 2, toy story 4, john wick chapter 3, secret life of pets 2, and x-men: the dark Pheonix are released within a close timeframe. It's going to be a real struggle.

Dumbo isn't facing that much competition. It comes out 2 weeks after captain marvel and there doesn't seem to be any competition until Avengers end game arrives in late April. I think it'll have a solid run.

I smell box office disaster for these reasons: Release date- it was bad idea to release it on Memorial Day. BO data shows that films fare poorly on this weekend. There's way too much competition. It's going to be a crowded hot sweaty summer. Early buzz- they shouldn't have released those images when the film is early in development. The film is being trashed on social networks for its portrayal of Genie, Aladdin and the style of the film. Guy Ritchie- Disney hired the wrong director for this film, but i hope he succeeds. Audience fatigue- Like what i said earlier, it's too crowded and audiences might get tired of seeing blockbuster after blockbuster or save money to go see bigger titles like Avengers 4, the lion king, toy story 4, detective pikachu, and Godzilla 2.

The disney fanbase is toxic. They're trying to bring down the rt audience score sharply for mpr and spread the bad wom. Non-disney fanbase are honest and would never do such a thing.

Aquaman is going to crush this movie with hurricanes, tidal waves, maelstroms and an army of great white sharks over the weekend...5 day weekend.

I also agree that the weekend thread should start today lol.

How much will Avatar 2, The lion king and detective pikachu make in China?

Wow

I think it's the 1st time where popular films edge out the awards friendly films in ensemble.

I want both franchises to be successful. I hope the fanboy wars and attack on critics will end, and the DCEU will have bigger box office earnings.

It only has 75% on rt? I thought it would be highter after all the award noms.

This thread will be brought back to life tomorrow.

I have a feeling this is going to underperform or flop. The last 2 transformer films had very very bad word of mouth.

Sfran ty for providing the numbers. You're a beautiful woman.
