    According to Mendelsohn (he's given correct estimates before), it's at 120 mil WW right now. Should cross 150 mil by the weekend. I doubt it's missing 200 mil. Still probably a money loser but won't lose tens of millions like people here expect.

    Mendelson estimates by keeping the same DOM/OS ratio and applying to the current DOM, which is not accurate at all. OS was already falling more during weekdays than DOM. Moreover, Feb. 14 was not Valentine's Day in some countries.

    The film would have greatly benefited from a strong female villain, with competent, good supporting male characters.

    In other words... exactly what WW84 is doing, and that’s likely to be a smash hit because of it.

    Maxwell Lord is the main villain, Cheetah is secondary, like the last time around. But Barbara will be more fleshed out before turning into a villain, unlike Dr. Psycho.

    The problem with BOP wasn’t its rating.  Deadpool (and it’s sequel), Joker and Logan all showed that an R-rating isn’t going to hinder a comic book movie’s box office the way we thought it would. And in fact can actually help the movie’s box office. We can all agree that those movies were good because they were able to expand past that PG-13 rating. I imagine BOP is in the same boat where a PG-13 rating would probably hinder its quality. 
     

    BOP was a poorly marketed movie with bad trailers and a character who we thought was more popular than she actually is. 

    It is a problem when your target audience is teenage females. At least teenage males are more likely to be interested in R rated movies and ask their parents to take them. The 58% male audience is evidence of that actually.

    BOP trailer has been out for like 2 months and has 19m views. WW has been out for less then 48 hours and has 12m views. Some of you guys need to relax. On twitter WW84 already has 2m more views and double the likes of BOP already. I’m not saying numbers are fantastic or anything but you guys are freaking out over nothing. 

    BoP had 18m after just a couple of weeks or less. I've been monitoring the trend and WW is going for something like that its first full week. It will probably pass BoP and cross 20 million but not much more than that for a long time.

    I think to date, the first Comic Con WW trailer has 30 million views. This one will likely surpass it. I don’t think WW metrics are entirely similar to other CM. 

    Won't make 30 million views, at least not without a bump after the movie coming out.

    Right now I wonder if it will even pass BoP's 19 million.

    Not saying it will correlate at all with box office but it is surprising to me that it's getting less views than the first movie's trailers had (and 30 million in 2017 was much better than 30 million in 2019). I don't think anyone can deny it's strange.

    Joker performance is absolutely insane. It is however a little worrisome that you need to slap "Joker" on a movie like this for people to even give a chance. Change the title and change a couple of names, and you would have a movie that would do like what... 150million WW?

    It just goes to show how powerful the comic book brand is nowadays.

    To be fair I think that would be the case even if it was the 90s, right after Batman 1989. Or right after The Dark Knight, because Joker was already insanely popular before the "comic book movies era".

  9. Nobody really cared about the movie in "that sense" until Elizabeth Banks started telling people this week that they need to see the movie because women have almost forcefully been seeing movies with male leads so men have to return the favor, and all sorts of nonsense as if her Charlie's Angels is pioneering something, and that Wonder Woman and Captain Marvel "don't count because they're part of the superhero genre which is a male environment", in an act of desperation to bring attention to the movie.

    Whether you agree or not, it's clear they're bracing for a bomb.

  10. More than anything, Mad Max had the benefit of the entire franchise being made by George Miller, so there were no "cashgrab sequels that ruined the franchise", and him bringing his A game to Fury Road, with 2 big stars, and the fact that it was one of the best films of that year.

    And even then it didn't do crazy well.

    When it comes to Charlie's Angels, not even the 2000s iteration had the popularity of the first few seasons of the TV show, so it was already a "tired" revival, just riding the 1990s-2000s gimmick of making movies out of 70s TV.
