I really liked both movies, I have nothing against DC or Marvel. I just love CM and I always love to see movies doing great. I cheer for them no matter if I liked them or not. I just love the box office.
I am not comparing either movies quality or expectations. I am just stating that it will be the highest grossing female superhero soon as it passes the WW domestic haul. That wasn't supposed to be as deep as you made it to be.
I really wish people stop being overly confident. I am predicting 5m and hoping for a higher weekend and I won't be disappointed when I see it do 6m, 7m or 8m.
It actually wasn't above the estimates of sunday numbers, but overall the weekend actuals were above the estimates.
BREAKTHROUGH - $3,166,000 => $3,046,503
it seems like friday and saturday numbers are increasing for all the movies with actuals so far and sunday numbers are dropping. PS is the only one which has increased from estimates.
I hope they don't screw this up, cuz CM reaching or beating WW is a more of milestone they would love to help out than an already dead Dumbo, that isn't going anywhere.
I will be happy with anything above WW. Even if it finishes with 413m. 420m+ is too ambitious for me. I would rather aim low and be surprised when it goes to over 420m.
