    Really hoping we get some early numbers. I've been spoiled I know but I don't wanna wait till way later. @Rthand @nilephelananything? 

     

    What is the source of Rth and nilephelan's insider knowledge? Are they in the movie business? Also, how do you turn user names into links, such as in your post?

    Was it Embrassing when gotg made more than cap2?

    There's nothing Embrassing about your numbers going up with each release.

    The DCEU movies will average 300 domestic with each release.

    the name of the game is to make money.

     

    Well, I just think that it'll be interesting if this movie about a group of unknowns makes more than one featuring the two most popular superheroes ever. However, I get your point.

    I'm sure the studio would rather have the 25% than nothing.   The $24m WB got back for BvS is more than they got from several mid size countries combined.

     

    Well, I didn't say that it didn't matter at all but that it doesn't matter that much.

    It opened with a 39mil lead over gotg now I think it's 45mil.

    For everyday suicide squad seem to be doing a mil or two better each day.

    If it can manage to keep a 20mil lead coming out of its third weekend then 350+ is where it will end up.

     

    350M+ for the domestic run? That would be great but also embarassing for BvS.

    I think $700m WW is the ceiling and $650m is more likely.  It doesn't have China and after this w/e only has Germany, Austria, Greece and Japan left.

     

    It's funny that it may have reached BvS's final haul if it had China. Well, on the bright side, China isn't that much of a loss because studios only get back 25% of however much their films gross there.

    In case you missed the global update from Gitesh (does not include Wed numbers)

     

    Global update - now up to $326M ww thru TUE incl $165M from intl mkts. Will break $400M FRI & get near $500M by SUN.

    Holy shit! Based on these predictions, what do you guys now think the ceiling is for its worldwide gross? It'd be great and ironic if it manages to match BvS final haul of 872M.

    The day Stan Lee passes away (and it's coming up soon, unfortunately) is gonna be such a sad one.

     

    I created an account just to reply to your post. Why would you say something so negative and potentially jinx Mr. Lee? For all we know, he could live to be older than one hundred years old. Don't say things like this.

     

    On another note...

     

    I attended a Thursday-night screening of Suicide Squad. I think the movie is okay and is worth seeing, because it has great and very funny character moments and because the chemistry between the members of the Squad is fantastic.

     

    Margot Robbie *IS* Harley Quinn; she did an amazing job bringing this popular character to the big screen. Also, I love how she was used to tie the Joker into the film, who was played very amusingly and creepily by Jared Leto (though we won't be able to compare him to Heath Ledger's Joker until he's featured as the main villan in a future film within the DCEU). However, I must say that the Joker's feelings toward Harley in this movie are not in line with his feelings for her in the source material; in the comics and animated series, the Joker doesn't care about Harley and uses her affection for him as a means to control her; however, in this movie, he actually loves her.  

     

    On the down side, two of the action sequences are weak and so is the villain. Furthermore, Slipknot was a complete waste; he was in the film for about ten minutes and had practically no lines.
