#10 BOOKSMART I just got to say that Kaitlin Delivered here alongside Beanie. I remember her perfect teen performance in Short Term 12 where she played at first a rebellious character, but as the film progressing shows her awesome range. In this she plays a character who throughout the High School, the focus has been on good grades rather than prioritizing social and wild party life. After they figured out that quiet and study focused years in the high school was not the only way into prestigious schools. They go out for their only and last wild night before going for the summer breaks. Booksmart is a refreshingly fun and entertaining movie. Despite the fact that the film's action resembles something you have seen before (SUPERBAD), you are nevertheless caught by its honesty and you are cheering on the protagonist's' journey through the film. 7.75/10

#11) SHAZAM 2019 It seems like another iteration of BIG from 1988, just this time with a kid with superpowers. The movie, like 'Big' has lots of charm, warmth and heart - and not least humor, which has really been in short supply in DC's superhero films. Most of DC movies have been dark and suffer a 3rd act bloated with too much CGI. Shazam feels like it's well balanced and is in the same vein of another movie from 2018 I liked Bumblee. Billy's super powers seem real and it is entertaining to follow him as he learns to fly, shoot with lightning and resist gunshots. The scenes are taken in turn by Zachary Levi and Asher Angel in the role of teen-billy. Zachary is awesome as always, but the big surprise is teen Billy kid is awesome. The bad guy wasn't so memorable. 7.5/10

I am only going to be listing movies I have watched on the theater. And only the top 11, I have seen more but don't care that much for the rest.

Thanks.

@baumer can I share my top movie (seen so far) list in here?

I think Avatar will be re-released right around A2's release date. And if AEG does end up taking the crown of Avatar, it won't be by much maybe around 5m-10m. But who ever has the record, disney don't care because both franchises are connected to them anyways. We can even say that for every big franchise out there is connected to them, so they seem to be the likely next studio to dethrone their own crown.

I just saw a female football player that plays for either Houston or Seattle and they were playing in Houston and she collapsed because of the humidity and how hot it was. I don't know if this is recent thing or YT is recommending old stuff to me.

DAMN I am loving this run. 350m+ still possible. Looking at more recent movies that have made from 330m to 364m, it seems unlikely that Aladdin will do more than 345m. Guardians of the Galaxy after 6th wknd 10.36m made 38.411m ($345,043,000) The Jungle Book after 6th wknd 10.94m made 36.577m ($343,209,000) American Sniper after 9th wknd 10.05m made 30.114m ($336,746,000)

For Aladdin could be $8,119,342 weekend in Japan.

How is it enough with out my man JW?

I so want a 3rd movie to The Raid movies. JW and The Raid are just awesome.

could the 4th one do 200m?

John Wick 3 doesn't care about competition, it's just doing its own amazing thing on the side like Aladdin. It's at 2.8x multiplier now.

I know that MIB will be topped by monday the latest, but there is still a fight for the weekend. What a flops MIB and DP have been.

There is a thread in here too, that baumer made.

And one more thing they don't get, is that this was in 2002 and 2003. It was really unheard of legs and run for a movie in that period, dare I say unimaginable.

How tragic for MIB: I if it gets passed by AEG after having been in release for 2 months.

Aladdin is joining The Upside as the movies with most impressive RUNS of the year over 100m+.

I know there are too many to list in one post. Here is a revised list. Only movies over 200m and only domestic performances TOP 20. My Big Fat Greek Wedding - $3,002,241 - 1.2% - $241,438,208 Star Wars - $6,806,951 - 2.2% - $307,263,857 Jaws - $6,150,000 - 2.4% - $260,000,000 E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial - $11,835,389 - 3.3% - $359,197,037 Raiders of the Lost Ark - $8,305,823 - 3.9% - $212,222,025 Titanic - $28,638,131 - 4.8% - $600,788,188 The Empire Strikes Back - $10,840,307 - 5.2% - $209,398,025 Back to the Future - $11,152,500 - 5.3% - $210,609,762 Ghost - $12,191,540 - 5.6% - $217,631,306 Ghostbusters - $13,578,151 - 5.9% - $229,242,989 Home Alone - $17,081,997 - 6.0% - $285,761,243 Beverly Hills Cop - $15,214,805 - 6.5% - $234,760,478 Forrest Gump - $24,450,602 - 7.4% - $329,694,499 Aladdin - $19,289,073 - 8.9% - $217,350,219 Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle - $36,169,328 - 8.9% - $404,515,480 Return of the Jedi - $23,019,618 - 9.1% - $252,583,617 The Sixth Sense - $26,681,262 - 9.1% - $293,506,292 Mrs. Doubtfire - $20,468,847 - 9.3% - $219,195,243 Avatar - $77,025,481 - 10.3% - $749,766,139 Night at the Museum - $30,433,781 - 12.1% - $250,863,268

Are you really laughing at what MBFGW did in it's box office run?

If we for real are calculating the most impressive movie runs, you only need to look at the opening weekend percentage of total gross.

Exactly how I feel.

It was bound to bomb, no way it was repeating or doing anything close to the original. That was the most once in a lifetime run i have ever seen.

Here are the most impressive runs for the newbies. E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial 1982 - $359,197,037 Star Wars 1977 - $307,263,857 Titanic 1997 - $600,788,188 My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2002 - $241,438,208 Jurassic Park 1993 - $357,067,947 Forrest Gump 1994 - $329,694,499 Return of the Jedi 1983 - $252,583,617 The Empire Strikes Back 1980 - $209,398,025
