Aquaman will unfortunately break DCEU's record of consecutive $100m OW's.
He's lesser known and it's Christmas.
I'm sure the movie will be good with Wan though.
He still has a chance to keep that 300 dom trend going,However I don't believe Aquaman is opening no less than 100mil even as a Holiday release.

So embarrassing for the DCEU that their successful movies are outdoing themselves

who in the right mind, would ever set a bar that high for DCEU by looking at just TDK's performance?
Even they set the bar that high, it's justifiable for BvS, (although too harsh for SS or WW); They were all still a success especially MOS and SS. either way, the main thing is that I like to emphasis how "potential" matters, whether it's exaggerated, it's another issue.
I do accept the term of "successful failure" especially in the case of BvS, where it made profit clearly, but does it live up to its potential?
Again, everything come to potential, every decision, from casting, shooting, budget allocation to marketing strategy, studio must recognise their film potential or the potential of their competitor.
I'm just completely disagree we take movie business that simple, world doesn't works in this way.......
Everyone is setting the bar too high ,This is why there's a few who are saying WW opening to 100mil was kinda a disappointment when MoS,BVS,SS opened to 115,166,133.
This is a perfect example of too high of standards.
Im not calling it simple but its dumb to keep dwelling over the fact the BVS didn't make a Billion ,especially Now that The Dceu is on its way to four 300+dom grossers in a row.
Damn the fact that one of those films didn't make a Billion this is a very big accomplishment for a Any Shared Universe .

"Potential" is a key thing when studio determine a movie project, just seeing a film being successful or not, is simply too simple, even a simple math will do, we don't need then the marketing arm inside the studio, then studio don't need to spend hundreds of million for P&A.
Everything come to whether it live up "Potential", ignore that would devastating to studio especially in long term.
As far as I see it ,The Dceu Phase one is averaging 311dom a film if that isn't potential then this Dceu will never live up to The standards most of you set for them.
TDk made 500+dom that doesn't mean every Batman film has to hit the same number.
If Reeves Batman makes 800ww on a 140mil budget The talk will be about more about how it didn't make a Billion rather than its success

It's about potential. The DCU was not living up to it's box office potential. A movie with Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman should have done a lot more then what B V S did. The term "SUcessful failure" comes to mind.That was why after BvS there Warners made a major shake up in the DC film division.
It all comes down to if it was Successful or not.
You all really need to get off of this "potential " thing and understand that These Dceu films are very successful rather they are hitting a Billion or not.

Over $3 billion with 4 movies... It has to be said because I read literally hundreds of posts on here and elsewhere about the DCEU being dead or having to reboot and all this nonsense, I'm not even factoring in what the movies have done for WB's merchandise sales which are through the roof.
Maybe those posts will stop now but probably not.
This will still be overlooked.
And no they are not.

Wonder Woman has opened in its major markets. It is doing decent but not spectacular. We are looking at 50/50 domestic overseas Split it looks like
No,It didn't open in all of its Markets last week.
Someone said something about TM having a bigger o.S opening than WW but I didn't think all of the films major markets were open last week.

The DCEU. I'm not speaking on anything in terms of whether you like what they are doing or not but they are certainly connecting on a level that few thought they would. Man of Steel and even Batman v Superman were a given but what they've done with Suicide Squad at the box office and now Wonder Woman... quite amazing really.
No need to give them credit ,Nobody is gonna recognize it.
People are more interested in WW out grossing BVS than they are with the Dceu basically having five 300+ domestic grossers and five 100+ openings.

So The Mummy did more OS on OW than WW did.
I believe WW is still waiting for major markets to open.

Wonder Woman is going to continue to build on that lead with these summer weekdays & even better holds on weekend, especially with Fathers Day next weekend.
Iron Man did 316 ...
Wonder Woman is going to be the highest grossing DCEU movie in North America with 335-350
Temporality.

Wonder Woman is here to show all those who like to argue mercilessly that BvS and SS were well received, how a well received DC movie behaves.
$300M+ confirmed now and a 3x+ confirmed as well
I knew many were gonna say this when WW having a 3x is great for the entire Universe.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with WW either out grossing BVS/SS or having better legs .

I still think WW won't touch 350m and BvS/SS, but 300m seem pretty certain now. I'll wait until next weekend to declare anything, though.
I agree but it can come extremely close.

$300 million is happening for WW.
I just hope it manages to sneak past BvS too. That would be great.
Yes,Great to see the Dceu was Never dead as its Average would be 330+dom.

Looking more & more likely now that #WonderWoman will end up beating #ManOfSteel at domestic, intl & global #BoxOffice. $300M dom likely.

Everything you say is true and would explain, say, $280M. That would already be a wonderful multiplier. Very few movies have replicated the success of Iron Man since 2008 (not counting GOTG because it opened in August). But working against Wonder Woman is that it is part of a franchise. Many DC fans made sure to watch it the first weekend, and in this respect it could be more frontloaded than Iron Man - that was just another superhero film at the time.
Don't get me wrong, I loved the movie and would be thrilled if it reached $300M. It just seems very unlikely and many people are setting themselves up for disappointment (again).
The Films first week seem to be on a path to The status of 'Massive'.

I would have agreed with you prior to this weekend....well, not agreed with you but said that you have a chance to be right. But at this point, everything is pointing to WW having an Iron Man type run.
Big Saturday increase
Small Sunday decrease
Critical adoration
Fans love it
regular audiences love it
Hence wom is outstanding
Looks like it could fall 50% or less this weekend.
300 isn't locked, but it's a lot more likely than it was last week.
I'm gonna be honest,I didn't enjoy WW but as a Dceu supporter it literally brings tears to my eyes to see a Twitter Ratio like this.

There is no reason to believe WW will reach $300M, just like there was no reason to believe it would open above Suicide Squad. $250M+ would be great, and above (reasonable) predictions.
The reason being ,The film could be on the plus side of 200 domestic on Monday.
Thats 200mil in the first 10days of release and most likely coming out of its third with 245+.

I agree, but...
To really hit this holiday season, it's gonna have to back off the darkness (BvS part 2 will crash and burn) and be willing to snare some of the family audience that I think the mistiming of Coco and the lack of great holiday releases (sans Star Wars) could give them. They want to win the battle of staying in theaters through the new year over Thor and other non-animated November movies to get the chance at sexy, sexy legs...they'll have a 2 week advantage over Thor coming out later, but they need to show better staying power than all those Nov movies if they wanna keep screens when Star8 opens...
People watch movies at Christmas, and they watch more than 1...Star8 is one, so JL should want to be 2:)...
I think the awful releases planned around Christmas can only help:)...
We can see from the Trailers that the Darkness has been put in check.
Not one time looking at anything from JL ,I never got anywhere near the feeling I had for BVS as far as Darkness goes.
Many may not see it but there was a lot of color In JL.
The key to the films Victory really depends on its Opening.

This. People aren't going to remember BvS by the time Justice League comes.
They will remember it but also They loved SS and WW and also MOS had Decent reception amongst the G.A dispite what many think.
JL will basically be following A well Liked by THe general audience SS and A well loved WW film.
This is steam and it's very Hot.

Audiences aren't suddenly going to forget BVS, the film which JL is a sequel to.
I think many need to get over the logic that people are actually looking for more than just fun.
The new Hollywood formula is basically Mediocre story and a few Laughs,Average a 6.0+ with the Critics and you'll get a 90+% approval rating.
If the film is fresh the Skies are truly the limit .Proof is with WW as it followed 3 Subjectively bad Movies.
No way this film should be a front runner for a 3x multiplier but yet here we are.

Nope, the biggest Question about JL Release was
"Is WW gonna be any good?"
or the Famous "If Ww is well received then JL could explode"
Mission accomplished.
Being Next in Your universe following a film with a 3x is certainly momentum.
Sure we will never forget BVS but WW Just erased basically everything bad in the past and have Giving the Dceu a very Fresh start with the G.A.
This is something that can't be simply overlooked.
