£6m for Venom.

£1.67m for Halloween Kills. 
 

Edit: I misread the tweet about Halloween Kills and thought it was £945k. Great opening considering the small rooms. 

Venom 2 did 8.3

The UK launched at $8.3M, 7% ahead of Venom and the second-best standard opening of the pandemic.

In France, Venom 2 started on 2nd place behind NTTD only with previews (opens at 10/20)

 

In Spain, Venom 2 has already recorded €2.3M (800K attendees) in two days, and on it's way to become the best OW in Post CoVid.

Lucy made 463 WW and Black Widow will be close to that it may not even crack 500 WW. Venom made 856WW so I don’t know why your comparing it to that.

Dude do you even know what you are talking about?

 

The low end of expectation was 187M going into weekend. It lost $8M due to unexpected COVID wave in Korea and non-opening of NSW. It's barely, $20M under the low end of expectations.

 

No, Lucy has no shot of beating a MCU flick. The only market Lucy will be ahead of BW are couple of European markets with France being the only one considerably ahead.

 

In markets it released this week, it won't be too far off Venom.

Without China (+all other markets not open yet except Taiwan which opened yesterday) thinking $250M Approx. USA probably $200M.

So I guess I did know what I was talking about?

i doubt that it will drop to 70, but lets see  both antman 2 and spiderman homecoming dropped around 62% in their sec weekend and in normal conditions so..................

No not 70, it’s already blown past 70 Disney wanted to have it’s cake and eat it last week by insisting on adding its Disney+ numbers on top of OW box office boasting over 110 OW or 215 WW so now the chickens have come home to roost. Time to face the music.

BW would only be a rogue one story if there was a scene in the movie with Thanos showing up out of nowhere to kill off a bunch of nobodies, just to make the fanboys watching wet themselves with excitment.

I forgot that even happened but they really expected us to believe he went from moving like this..

 

To this..

before you could say order 66

[Black Widow | July 9 2021 | ScarJo secures the bag from Disney]

The meltdown as the numbers dropped from 125+ to 100+ to 100 to 95 to 90 to 88 and finally to 80 has been the only thing that wasn’t a let down. Truly hilarious stuff, we had people blaming the numbers on Loki, someone wrote a book about how people wanted this and wanted cinema to die..  and then Disney throwing in Disney+ numbers so people forget about the OW numbers. Bet they won’t include them next week when they calculate the drop..

UK will be upset today, but the UK is used to disappointment in international tournaments. 

 

Still dont see people caring to watch BW though 

Yup. And good for them, you gain literally nothing from watching it. It’s like F9, stuff happens that means nothing and then it ends. Time wasted.

If China releases yes, may be even 600.

158 WW is even lower than expected, Lucy has a shot of beating a MCU flick with that opening. China would barely get this over Lucy let alone 6.

It was a struggle to get through, even the lead acted bored in her own movie. It also has about three endings.. each one making even less sense than the last.

Tigerpaw and Jartinder don’t want it to come out in China because they think it will look like a bigger flop. There own words.

It was alright. Pretty much inline with what I was expecting. It would’ve been nice if the movie were a little smaller. The climax was a fairly typical superhero climax, but Florence Pugh is pretty good. 

It was in some ways..

Okay , I am blaming Disney if it's goes below 85m. Family audience chose PA over going to theatre.

Disney better release PA numbers. MCU shouldn't be treated this badly , it's literally their biggest brand. 

But but the pandemic

I mean 5 million less than The Winter Soldier isn't bad really.

 

And I'm not sure how we went from graciously accepting F9's 70 m opening because of the pandemic to expecting theaters to perform at 100% two weeks later.

 

Also this was a hybrid release. Any American could watch it at home.

Would you pay 30 dollars to watch it on a small screen? 

Even if the answer is yes plenty of people here were predicting at least 100+ OW. Didn’t deadline have it pegged as high as 125? So 88 for a MCU film with Disney’s marketing has to be a big disappointment for those people. F9 is also in the same boat in that it was nothing spectacular and the second week drop was big. Both franchises are getting repetitive.

I already made a valid argument.  You said everything was open and back to normal.  That is completely false and pointed out why.

 

Hope this helps.  

I said America is mostly vaccinated and fully open which it is.
 

I said 100+ OW was predicted knowing what you said but you can’t accept that and want to pretend this is a new revelation about Canada but nothing has changed that explains Black widow not making the 100+ OW that was predicted.

See, you're not telling it how it is though.  The domestic box office also includes Canada which is not even close to back to open yet.  

 

America also isn't vaccinated and fully open.  12 and under aren't vaccinated.  The biggest movie going markets in the country, New York and Los Angeles, still have seating and distancing restrictions in a lot of theaters.  

 

Many theaters aren't even open and a lot that are aren't running anywhere near full capacity due to distancing, labor shortages and other factors.  

 

It will remain like this until the Fall.  

I told it how it was because despite you saying this now people were expecting 100 OW so bringing up the pandemic excuse now after the fact is not being honest with yourself.
