It’s already 21:30 here. How long until the predictions for Sunday. Anyone know?

Definitely! It had an actual plot other than “bad guy wants to blow stuff up, let’s stop him by blowing up more stuff”, for starters.

Who would have thought!

No lies spotted.

From an admissions-revenue standpoint, yesterday was the second-biggest Saturday in AMC’s history, slightly behind the all-time AMC Saturday record set on Dec. 26, 2015 by Star Wars: The Force Awakens (that date includes both AMC and Carmike which were separate companies at that time). I need a gif of Lupita dancing on the boat to insert here.

Why must box office theory reveal that I had to copy and paste the word “phenomenon”? The shame..

Then Spiderman and Thor at 15th and 16th, by your reasoning, should have done huge numbers like this as well. There’s hype and then there’s a cultural phenomenon. Oh please do not be contradictory just for the sake of it.

Just like every other solo Marvel debut that opened over 190 million, you mean? Oh wait, there hasn’t been any!

They do. The same headlines appeared in 2016 for Deadpool.

Its the bestselling movie in history at 80 AMC locations.. Has an A+ Cinemascore.. I really think it will have a multiplier close to WW.

God, it’s not coming close Avatar’s WW’s box office. Domestic only.

I agree. It has an “Avatar” energy to it.

In addition to that, plenty of your friends and other movie goers might go see it in theaters again as well! I plan to!

Most ahead of the weekend were seeing $90M-$120M with some believing it could edge higher, but not to these stratospheric totals. What’s fueling it? The movie is playing to the Marvel faithful, and also brought out the non-core audience. Says one international distribution veteran, “I think it’s so fresh and people are recognizing this, worldwide.” http://deadline.com/2018/02/black-panther-fifty-shades-freed-monster-hunt-2-detective-chinatown-2-weekend-results-international-box-office-1202293876/ $ 1 billion world wide is definitely happening.

“Whatever you think the box office is, it always does better,” beams Imax CEO Greg Foster about Black Panther‘s momentum, “I wish I had more seats to sell.” LOL deadline.com

24% drop ? Hmm, I doubt it.

I hope so! I can see the headlines already. 🤩

I loved it as well. It’s doing really great here in the Netherlands and a LOT of the shows are sold out.

Hi. Deadline has BO at 195.5 so close to 200 million!!!
