Forget it...just let it go. GG loves it and that's fine. He's just reluctant to see other people's point of view.
I didn't even realize after actuals the 62.2% drop is identical to TASM2.
Must have missed that one.

If it had went up against a 100+mil opener or two openers that equalled that, I wouldn't bat an eyelash. If it were a Homecoming 2, I wouldn't bat an eyelash but none of those things are true so yeah I look at the drop as decidedly not good for a film that garnered such stellar reviews for a comic book blockbuster.
Maybe SM:HC just reminds kids of what they were trying to get away from all year ...School.

Who would have thought that Spider-Man + Iron Man would be dominated by a space raccoon at the box office?
I didn't ,Honestly A 400/1bil was on my mind although the big B still can happen with many major markets yet to open.

Remember how some of us said $300M would not happen for SS after the second weekend drop, let's wait for the third weekend at least. Or $500M for Beast after Boss Baby opened.
Thanks for putting a smile back on my face

Unlike MOS it shouldn't drop - since August is empty - 59% in the 5th, 62% in the 6th weekend and another 59% in 7th weekend
but yall are acting dumb on purpose so..
At this point I'm not even sure if Competition is even a factor anymore.
The film didn't hold well against a 56mil opener which isn't much of you really think about it.

Yeah not sure what happen to the RT or WOM on this movie. It only had one major competition this weekend (APES).
I remember MOS had two major one "WWZ and MU" at the same time, and it dropped -3% more then SMH..... this movie is in danger of going sub $300M if it drop above 55% next weekend .... Dunkirk/Valerian will hurt it for sure.
When I saw the first Friday to sun drop I did mention something about the film doing a Man Of Steel and falling just shy of 300domestic.
That could very well be a possibility if next weekend Doesnt hold well.

That's a really bad drop for Spidey. Opening weekend was clearly frontloaded.
This weekend drop will probably seal its fate. If it drops 50-55%, I think 300 million will not be a lock.
Don't say it please I'm trying not to think about it

Well, I am sorry The post is editet now and the text delated. I didnt mean anything wrong, it is just the discussion of all the future numbers for movies we dont even know how they look like is giving me headeach. Hope, I didnt offend any of you. I am sorry again, my bad.
Well there was nothing else to talk about as the actuals wasn't in.
Not offended at all I just didn't want hammers laid on us when we were being civil.
Im pretty sure The bans will go in effect before the mods even look at the full conversation.

I really don't see any issue so far, not sure what you see that's not appropriate thus far. We were all discussing what we think THOR3 would do .... Funny thing is several of the DC folks are actually rooting for it to succeed.

Things gets civil and it's still wrong ,WTH?

This thread just like last week is turning into a mayham as usual because of the DC/MCU unfinished war, @baumer @Telemachos, please lock the thread till the actual numbers are out,
Why do you feel to do that as nobody here is having any fanboy arguments.
Its actually a mutual conversation and nobody is bashing one another.

Still those were a month to a one month and a week away.
All I'm saying is the interest in these films are so high it might Benefit al of them especially if they can mimic 2017 comic book movies Reception by Critics.
Hopefully at the end of the Year The comic book movie genre will be undefeated by Critics making the genre even stronger.
Two more films to go and we are that close to having a perfect comic book genre.

As previously stated I wonder how IW, DP2, TI2, and AMATW will affect each other in the summer. Will we have diminished returns due to the fact there's a superhero movie every two to four weeks?
After reading this article I don't think it's gonna be a problem

If Thor 3 made more than $300m, I'll say Wonder Woman is a flop......

Isn't that about the ratio of women to men on this board:)? Just kidding, a little:)...
I have no clue but I was very surprised about who are women here as I didn't even think we had some who were into this.
So as men we do have to consider what we say.

I don't think this August was any better...it would be the 4th comic film in a row and would likely be unfavorably compared to all 3 - time will actually help it.
And kicking it to 2018 is worse with all the movies already set.
It will have a very good 1st 2 weeks...and then it will fall of a cliff if JL is any good (and even if not, it will fall off that weekend:)...nothing wrong with that...it's gonna make a nice total, just not an OMG one...
These films are saving Hollywood so I don't think summer fatigue would've hurt it.

People who know comics and comic movies (and quadrant appeal) did:)...
Thor is not a huge crossover quadrant character - Loki probably draws more women that Thor...I know he's my sole reason for watching the 2nd movie...and it's sole redeeming factor:)...
I'm not gonna make this into a 500 page argument but sure there was a few like me who said the film will do 300 domestics but for the most part many didn't even see WW over 70mil o.w

Yes they did. Not everyone but there were plenty of people who always considered it a possibility
The people who considered WW over BVS had a ratio of 1/100.
You can't count those s who upped thier predictions after the embrago lifted.

1 minute ago, TwoMisfits said:
True...but WW was a premier movie (not a 3rd one), released in a wasteland of badly received and reviewed worn-out franchises and in an environment where there were no movies appealing to 2 of its main quadrant audiences...and it was a very good movie...
Thor 3 will only have, at most, one of those things going for it...
Okay I see many are not reading the full conversation here.
Me and @YourMother was only saying that with a better release date Thor 3 would do better than it's destined to do.

Yes. Another bizarro comparison given this is the third Thor solo movie. Not to mention, he's played a larger role - more than Wonder Woman in BvS - in both Avengers and Ultron.
Comic book films are unpredictable,
That's the only point I was trying to make

CW added every Avenger not named Thor and Hulk. It also added Spider-man and Black Panther. Come on, man. Is that really comparable? I'll give that I expect Ragnarok to gross somewhere between $245M DOM and $285M DOM because of the addition of Hulk and marketing that seemed to infuse some fun into what was previously marketed as kind of drab. But, this is not CW.
Well Thor did have much more trailer views than CW.
As I told the other guy we were saying maybe in August Thor could've seen it's true potential instead of losing screens earlier than it should

Just now, baumer said:
Why would you use WW when comparing it to Thor?
I was only trying to make a comparison about how these films can be unpredictable.
We wasn't saying. 350 for Thor as it stand right now but we were saying that maybe August would've been a better release date for the film
Weekend Actuals (Page 150): Apes 56.3M | SMH 44.2M | DM3 19.4M | Baby 8.7M | Big Dick 7.5M | WW 6.8M | Wish Upon 5.5M | Tomatoes losing their power

At this point we can almost be certain of a +50drop.
Huge fri-sat drop,
62.2%second weekend drop.
The drop may not seem bad to some but the reality here is Apes wasn't actual competition And SM:HC didn't have a extremely big opening.
