Agreed. Maybe 9.5, 13, 10.5? Feeling like it will be less if US truly breaks out.

Yeah I mean that's fair to say. What a fail that was. Went from meh to good to record breaking.

I'd bet the chances are .1% for 100 million. Curious to see though. That would be simply incredible. Historical greatness.

Jesus what a big correction. Well 60+ sure feels locked maybe 80+ will happen. Man that's impressive.

Sure and it's a opinion shared by the majority of audiences, rotten tomatoes, metacritic, imdb, cinemablend and countless others. Doesn't mean it's right, I've seen very few who thought GOTG2 was better. Cinemascore did give both an A. To me GOTG is one of my favorite of all Marvel films. GOTG 2 is not inside the top 10.

I'm guessing millions of children. My daughter out of the blue tonight asked when are we going to see the flying elephant movie, I really want to see it. She rarely ever specifically mentions movies. I'm going with 225+ DOM, 500+ WW.

Yep it's awesome. I've talked to several people in Cambridge Uk that speak 5+ languages. They literally change their accent to mirror the country the language is prevalent in. It's a way for them to subconsciously keep track of the differences in each language to be able to go back and forth. One guy who lives in Cambridge now from Lithuania learned English while attending University in America (where I'm from). His english literally sounds like someone from center USA, and he has a very interesting accent for the other languages he knew.

It's going to be like that more and more. Especially for just good movies without excellent WOM. Huge spectacle type films will do awesome in the first week and crash down quickly after.

Some predicting near 1 billion, others predicting 99 min Dom and under 200 WW... Put me in the middle camp. Christopher Robin opened to 24 million. I think this opens to 50+, maybe 60+

This is absolutely true. Switzerland, Norway, Finland, Sweden, Denmark all have incredible English speaking rates close to or above 90% for most. When it comes to travel it's one of the easiest and most convenient areas to travel to for Americans and for British.

Gotg 2 was nowhere near as good as gotg1 yet it increased. It's a damn miracle, certainly not a disappoinment.

anything above 60 is incredible.

Weeks 6/7/8/9 are a bit of a crapshoot with End Game coming out. That could change the predictions a lot. We shall see.

When I say perform poorly in some markets I clearly don't mean all. I already predicted 276 million DOM so yeah I think it's gonna be a hit. Maybe 276/600 DOM? Seems to me that would be badass for a small budget film.

Weird. I loved Aquaman. Sure it wasn't deep but it was fun as hell. Figured the same for this movie.

Just a guess. Part 1 of 2 part films are often clunky. Could be wrong. I really hope the whole world loves Shazam, more specifically I hope I love it. Aquaman blew up way more than expected, perhaps this can as well.

Oh yeah Shazam screams MERICA fr the previews. Fully expecting it do bad internationally in many countries. What's the prediction for China

Nah I doubt that. End game will probably be better than Infinity War. Snap pissed some off.

I hope Disney at least for that movie looks at what China wants too not just America. I'm not exactly optimistic about that happening but I'd love to be proven wrong

Maybe? End Game probably higher though. I'll say 85%, End Game closer to 90.

I'm going into it assuming fun and cheesy, not a traditional SH movie which isn't a bad thing. I seriously doubt consensus reviews would be that high unless it's pretty enjoyable. I expect good things at 80+ opening.

Spring break and nothing good came out last week and this movie has stellar reviews thus far. Clearly my sub 60 prediction is a fail but I'm curious to see how good those pre sale comps correlate to OW. They indicate a 100+ opening, we shall see.

61 min US and 34.5 CM. Seems realistic given numbers just keep getting better for US. I thought 47 was fair but 61 is an 80% increase over get out. That's amazing. 34.5 would be fine for CM. Not good but fine.

Jeez 100 million predictions. I still think 60+ is crazy but perhaps I'm the one who's crazy. Curious to see word of mouth on the ending and what sort of penetration it gets.

Ok let's assume 60 million for US a 80% increase over Get Out with a much worse ending. Still think CM gets 35ish. If it does 80, maybe 33.
