It's actually a little bit sad to see Avatar deposed by something as corporate as AEG, it's like movie making is going the way of video games, where Fifa and COD just keep coming out each year and selling millions.
The numbers were so insanely manipulated too I think it shows Disney really doesn't care about much, even Iger and Eisner have said plainly that Disney is about making money and nothing else.
Here's to another hundred live action remakes and Marvel movies eh. I wonder when they'll move onto the 1960s to start dregging up old cultural icons for us all to consume again
Ah yes, the meltdowns

OS-China will be $290mn through Sunday. With $97mn China, $397mn through Sunday.
Shall be able to do $850-900mn in the markets released. Italy, Japan and Hong Kong shall add $100mn IMO. Add $120mn from China to that, I don't see how it miss $1075-1125mn Overseas.
Domestic shall do $550-575mn Approx atleast, that will take it to $1625-1700mn.
@Charlie Jatinder, did you mean 850-900M total with or without China? 'Cause if you mean with China, then you've added China's gross twice to the total haul.

Call it whatever you want. Calling 1.5B a flop is idiotic. Flop for big budget is Justice League.
Where did I call TLK a flop? I was trying to make a point. An underperformer is not necessarily a flop, and I don't think that I should be explaining this.
On a side note, I really don't see TLK getting to 1.5B

Predictions were 170-210 roughly before Thursday night. Box office pro predicted 185. Don't be ridiculous. Things will continue to "disappoint" in relation to previews as previews continue to expand.
Your point being...?
Hypothetically, if a movie is predicted to flop, and it does indeed flop, does that stop making it a flop, just because it was predicted?
With I2 making $182M on OW and BatB making $175M, I don't see how $170M for TLK would be considered a "huge success". TLK is so much more well-known and beloved than those stories are.

*movie opening with 200M
Not great - not terrible
- It's a line from Chernobyl.
- 200 is the absolute max rn which TLK probably won't touch.
- TLK's OW is good, even great to say the least, yet..
-.. Is it below expectations? Yeah, pretty much. 23M in previews and barely beating out BatB.
I loved the movie, honestly. But with that much anticipation and big theater count, it definitely shouldn't have had problems passing 200.

So are we going with The Lion Flop or the Flop-n King?
Disney's Kimba the Flopping Lion

It's probably ending up below BatB. I'm a bit disappointed because I've enjoyed TLK much more..oh well. RT score won't help, so

So $9.5M OS. $2.5M China, leaves us $7M for approx. $3.5M per day OS-China. Solid IMO.

"John Wick 3" had an awesome opening weekend, bringing in $296K / 1.26M RON in three days. JW3 far outopened its predecessors.
In other news, "Avengers: Endgame" has made it to $3.2M / 13.67M RON and will soon enough pass both "The Fate of the Furious" AND "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" in order to become the third highest grossing movie of all time in Romania. "Aquaman"'s $3.8M-haul might be a stretch too big for EG.
Other holdovers: The Hustle $343K, UglyDolls $46K, Brightburn $103K.

Outside of the "A vs EG" realm, let's appreciate for a moment EG"s accomplishments.
EG is now the single MCU movie to have, not 3, but 4 $100M+ markets.
EG has now grossed more in any single market than any other MCU movie, be it IW, TA or BP.
EG has passed Avatar DOM and has become the second highest grossing movie of all time.
Another thing that just came to mind:
EG has made more money in China than TA & TLJ made domestically.

How is it possible for EG to be at $97.4M, after a $1,34M Sat, when it was reportedly at $96.6M by last Sunday?

I feel like people constantly forget Charlie is in preparation for his finals / exams.
That spreadsheet did not get updated since the 2nd weekend.
All of BOT members question for.... why do you all still do that?
He does not do for the moment the in-depth following of the hourly changes like before, he looks at one or two snapshots of the day and tries to give you some feel, very early estimates, nothing more, nothing less.
Every question is a distraction, even if maybe too often a welcomed one, from his announced need to stay clear of BO analysis to focus on a seemingly difficult / lots to learn for exam(s).
Finals means potential mid to long lasting impact on future employment, can have an impact on beginner's salary and so on.
So if he post details, I think we all can be glad, but to try to wheedle out more.... it's not a positive act in such a situation in my POV.
What's up with this overreaction? I didn't try to "wheedle out more" from @Charlie Jatinder, didn't even say that the projection is inaccurate. Just tried expressing my own opinion, so that trolls won't come concern-trolling us about that specific projection. Am I not allowed to do so?

I feel like this chart might be overestimating China and DOM and underestimating OS-China

You seem to have quite a far-right attitude, nicht wahr?
@Sheldon Cr may also find it harder to use certain words or write perfect sentences. Do we make fun of him for that? I think not. It wasn't even pointed out until now.
Stop being arrogant, you're not superior by preferring Avatar to Endgame, same applies to EG stans as well. Everyone's opinion should count just the same, no matter what country you're from, or how good your writing skills are.
