Well it's going to pass $250 million and Dark Phoenix at least, I recall some thinking that wouldn't happen.

I saw there was a thing going on over at Reddit called TheBOMRebuild but I guess that's already over with huh?
Now that the initial kneejerk reaction is over, I suppose we'll be stuck with this now.

Another 64% overseas drop.

Overseas actuals increased by $876,000.

Why are the week to week drops so small?
-
Next time (if that even happens) they should go back to the more low budget action horror approach of the original.

Surely it can make more than just another $53 million?
It could make another $15-20 million in Japan. Another $20 million in US. With all the rest of the world it can pass Dark Phoenix.
-
The only reason the scores aren't better than they are is because people are butthurt over what they did to John Connor.
Otherwise it's far superior to the last three movies.

Can this possibly hit $300 million worldwide?

That includes Japan where it opened to big number. Take out Japan and look at how big a drop for holdovers. But this was expected. This movie was always expected to tank.
It'd be 69% without Japan.

Holy shit, isn't that a megadrop from last week?
It's a 59% drop isn't it?
-
Is that good or bad based on where it was last weekend?

You must be a Trump supporter I suppose
Maybe some didn’t like the idea to add a Mexican angle, even though The Terminator and T2 briefly took place in Mexico and even had Mexican characters lol (this franchise in general had fans in Latin America)
But to blame this flop on casting Mexicans is straight up ignorant
But....you just agreed with me.

Not because of it, it was just one of the many reasons why.

How's Terminator doing this weekend?
-
It wouldn't have been successful either way but people don't like minorities so of course it had an effect to some degree.

The Mexican leads probably did hurt it. I have no idea why they decided to do that.

I just went on Entgroup and saw that Dark Fate grossed $4.5 million on Thursday after a $2.2 million Wednesday is that right?
Someone said they expected a 1.8x multiplier which would have it finishing at $51 million but if it's at $41.5 million going into the second weekend....what does that mean for it?

I think it was more than just Furlong not being able to reprise his role. I mean, why not recast him, then? Hell, the future John Connor in T2 didn't look anything like Edward Furlong. And you can get away with it since he was still a child and people change a lot in 30 years growing up.
But they keep doing that. It's one of the worst parts of the whole franchise. John Connor is arguably the main character of the series, yet he's portrayed by a different actor in every movie so there's no strong connection to the character or the story when there should be.
Edwards Furlong was John Connor in Terminator 2, then he was replaced by Nick Stahl, then he was replaced by Christian Bale, then he was replaced by Jason Clarke and now he'd be replaced again? Six different actors across five movies? Oh and the series had a different actor too. It'd be like if they replaced Luke Skywalker for every movie he was in.
Considering that this was the true Terminator 3 and they brought back Linda Hamilton also, I would rather Edward Furlong be killed off in a cameo than have someone else play him again. Preferably, John Connor would have had a large role where Edward Furlong played him but the guy is a junkie so that wasn't about to happen.

This should have been the Terminator 3 we got in 2003 really. Ideally with Edward Furlong not being a junkie so he could have taken Dani's place.

The problem is that it's a really thinly disguised rethread of the T1-T2 formula.
Well yeah it's a sequel. The whole cat and mouse chase is what this series revolves around.
Like all Indiana Jones movies involve him travelling around to find an artifact while bad guys are trying to get it too first.
If they didn't have that formula then it wouldn't be Terminator.

Are they good dailies compared to the weekend? What about the drops?
-
So where are we expecting this to be at by Sunday?

It’s already far too little, far too late for Terminator.
Which is sad because it was a good movie.
