Hope a huge OW will justify the theater count it might get.

Any idea how much wide the theater count will be for Avatar: TWOW? Since the first only went as wide as 3,461 theaters back in 2009/2010.

So with the re-release incoming, any idea where TGM’s lifetime worldwide gross might be at if it gets released in OS-countries as well? Will it outgross Furious 7 & The Avengers for 9th highest grossing film WW?

Is it just me or has Box Office Mojo never updated their ”Top Grossing Movies Adjusted for Inflation”-list yet? Monumentally huge blockbusters like “Spider-Man: No Way Home” & “Top Gun: Maverick” are nowhere to be seen among the top 100-list. 🤷🏻‍♀️ https://www.boxofficemojo.com/chart/top_lifetime_gross_adjusted/?adjust_gross_to=2022&ref_=bo_cso_ac

Loved it. A perfect movie for me. 💁🏻‍♀️👍🏻 A+

How much did each individual Harry Potter film do in China from this release?

If there is a certain recent milestone for TGM to celebrate about, is that in terms of films released on the Memorial Day Weekend, it has now the highest OS gross ($704M OS) of all Memorial Day films, which means it has beaten Aladdin’s OS gross. Good job, TGM for taking a lot of the records from other films released in Memorial Day Weekend in general.

Dustin Hoffman did have some movies that he was in, which were really big box office hits in the past decades or so.

Yeah. Even though his character isn’t an important one and just a cameo, he still DID make an appearance in that film. So it could count. 👩🏻‍💼🙆🏻‍♀️

And even Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 as well.

I meant unadjusted, lol. 😆 😂

Minions 2 could do it if keeps holding very well. The two highest grossing animated films from Illumation currently, are Despicable Me 2 (2013) & The Secret Life of Pets (2016) with both around $368M DOM.

Next target for Top Gun: Maverick’s DOM gross, is Jurassic World’s $653M & Titanic’s $659M. Which would soon put TGM as the 7th highest grossing film DOM, off all time and as Paramount’s biggest hit to date. I hope those who (rightfully) loves Titanic, doesn’t get too sad or heartbroken if Top Gun 2 eventually outgrosses it. 💁🏻‍♀️🙆🏻‍♀️

Does anyone think Minions: The Rise of Gru might outgross it’s predecessor DOM-wise? So far it’s being back and forth at being over/under the first film day after day. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Almost mostly copied from what i said in the Jurassic World: Dominion thread: I really genuinely adore this film and had such a huge blast. I found the many good (great even) moments to overshadow the few bad ones. As many die-hard Jurassic lovers pointed out, the return of the OG trio JP characters together like Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler & Ian Malcolm, is such a delight. And the original cast really delivered here. Even the JW characters are very engaging as well. I really liked Owen, Claire & Maisie with the roles they have. Especially Maisie being one of the better & endearing kid/teen characters in the Jurassic franchise alongside Tim & Lex from the first Jurassic Park. The action (even the dino-action) here was very well-used here. I know there are some complaints of it being either too much or lack of it, but I think there was necessarily enough action to also make room for the more tender, calmer and even tense moments in the film. The dinos themselves are also well used enough here. At times there’s CGI (though great-looking ones) and other times they’re done practically like the dinos more close to the characters. It was cool to see both old & new dinosaurs in the film. Rexy was cool as always & Blue and it’s offspring Beta were fun to see. The Giganotosaurus was a really menacing & threatening Dino-villain (in a cool way) up there with Spinosaurus & Indominus Rex amongst one of the top Jurassic Dino baddies. Even the herbivorous dinos are put to good use here. Also…I’m aware of the backlash the film got due to the aspect of locusts, but to be honest…I didn’t mind the locusts in the film. I think they serve enough as a threat to what happens if we humans aren’t careful. I think it served as a new & interesting thing we haven’t seen before in any of the previous five films. Then there’s the epicly awesome battle between Rexy & Therizinosaurus vs the Giganotosaurus in the climax. And while it’s not as grandiose & earth-shaking as the battle against the Indominus Rex from the fourth film, this one is still one of the most suspenseful & breathtaking dino-fights in the entire Jurassic franchise. I rooted for Rexy to win and not to die, and thank god she stayed alive. All in all…I can understand why some folks don’t like the film or so (and it’s perfectly fine), but I don’t think it deserved the severe hate it got, at all. So I short, I loved it. Is it the first JP? No. But is it really worth watching as a Jurassic fan & as a general dinosaur fan and who wants to see cool dinos and engaging human protagonist characters? Yes. Overall, a very satisfying conclusion of the Jurassic World-films. And a true defender of it. My score for this, is a strong enough: A 9/10

I finally saw Jurassic World: Dominion and I know I’m in a minority on this (since I’m aware of the flaws and how the film is for most other folks), but….screw the haters, lol. I really genuinely adore this one and had such a huge blast. I know this one’s not many people’s (and I do mean “many”) cup of tea, but I found the many good (great even) moments to overshadow the few bad ones. As many die-hard Jurassic lovers pointed out, the return of the OG trio JP characters together like Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler & Ian Malcolm, is such a delight. And the original cast really delivered here. Even the JW characters are very engaging as well. I really liked Owen, Claire & Maisie with the roles they have.

My score for this, is a strong enough: A 9/10. @Brainbug If you see this, the great news are that i’m in the group of those who really liked this one as another fun Jurassic World-entry in the entire Jurassic franchise. You got yourself another true fan of this film. 💁🏻‍♀️👍🏻

What are the actuals for Thor?

One more $1B+ WW grosser left or so, and then the entire Top 50 highest grossing films (worldwide) will all consist of only billion dollar films. 🙆🏻‍♀️💁🏻‍♀️🤑💸💰 And I applaud all those $1B+ films. Even those that had re-releases to get there. 👏🏻 🥳

Yeah, it did. Correct. Though somehow DH2 didn’t get to $400M+ DOM for some reason, despite it being treated as the finale of the Harry Potter-franchise. 😲 It’s not like the WOM of that film was horrific or bad, right? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Since it was the most critically-acclaimed of all the HP-films.

True. A shame AWE didn’t get to over $1B+ WW like it’s predecessor did. Thankfully the next film actually did get there. 😉

Since we’re talking older blockbuster franchises, it’s funny to imagine that there were times were both a Harry Potter-film and a Transformers-film went against each other in a summer, box office wise…three times as a pattern. First there was 2007 with TF1 & Harry Potter: Order of the Phonix: TF1 = $319M OoTP = $292M Then 2009 with Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen & Harry Potter: The Half-Blood Prince: TF2 = $402M HBP = $302M And lastly with Transformers: Dark of the Moon & Harry Potter: Deathly Hallows Part 2: TF3 = $352M DH2 = $381M Two times did Transformers beat HP, and one time did HP beat Transformers.

Interesting comparison since both those superhero movies are directed by Sam Raimi of course. 👩🏻‍💼

Kinda surprised that out of all the biggest summer movies of 2007, Harry Potter: Order of the Phoenix was the only one not to hit $300M+ DOM, considering it only had Transformers as competition to go against in July 2007. 🤷🏻‍♀️

And also, Transformers managed to outgross Pirates 3, DOM-wise. TF1 = $319M Pirates 3 = $309M $10M apart from each other.

An extra honorable mention for TGM’s box office. It has eventually outgrossed Guy Ritchie’s “Aladdin” $1.050B worldwide, to become the highest grossing film released on the Memorial Day Weekend.
