A sub-100M opening is looking likely. -
It's fine. A better jump than Ralph 2 on its first Tuesday.

Terrible. A 200M decline and the worst recieved film in the Potter series. Sub-500M for FB3 sounds like a safe bet.

Barnack, I believe you're the most intelligent poster on this forum. Do you foresee a road to profitability?

Why are you so concerned with my posting activity? I didn't realize I had my own stalker. And I never disappeared. I post when I am interested. -

Just like Star Wars and Harry Potter, a Spider-Man film had to flop eventually. -
The delusions here are impressive. None of those films grossed as low as this. There's no way a film with a production budget of $220M and a marketing budget of $150M+ gets anywhere near profitability with a paltry sub-650 WW gross and a pathetic performance in the US. Studios don't spend this kind of money for this low of a return. LOL @ the merchandise argument. I'm sure those Newt Scamander toys are flying off shelves. The film is a bust, now imagine how poorly FB3 is going to do. Another $200M decline isn't out of the question given the hugely negative response to this one. Put a fork in this series, the five film plan is done. Maybe WB will let Rowling finish her awful pointless retcon-filled prequel story with one more (much cheaper) film and that'll be it.

It sold on the strength of the brand. If Rowling writes an entirely original movie not connected to the Wizarding World does it make $800M? People wanted to return to the world of Harry Potter. But they got a much less interesting story than the adventures of Harry, Ron, and Hermione. A five movie plan could have worked, if these films were better. But that time has passed.

70m is a pipe dream. 60m might be a longshot at this point. -
