A big problem in my opinion is that the marketing has done nothing to amp this movie up so far other than it is another Guardians movie. Gunn can tweet about it as much as he like how this is a big goodbye to the Guardians but the marketing has not good a job getting that out. In a post Endgame world where the movies have had mixed reaction it makes sense that the interest isn´t that high 1 month out without a clear hook like Ant-Man. Many are probably waiting to see WOM and reviews after being burnt to many times. Ant-Man got a ticket sales announcement right after a new trailer had dropped during a big football game and Wakanda Forever dropped ticket sales alongside a trailer. For this one they just tweeted. With the premiere just being 7 days before Thursday previews it doesn´t look like the plan is to use WOM to boost the movie either. Wouldn´t be surprised if we get many TV spots that are more revealing if it stays on a trajectory behind Ant-Man. I can´t imagine Gunn missing so I´m surprised that they don´t want to get reactions out earlier.

Think it is a mistake. According to this it was set for 6th of April but then it was changed to 27th of April but now it says 6th of April again. But it´s most likely just an error because we would have heard about it if it was in 3 days. https://www.averagesocialite.com/la-events/2023/4/6/guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-3-premiere-la

Is it out?

started like 1 hour ago at fandango

I would argue it could go lower but arguably it should be better

Norway sales are solid so far I can see but it´s such a small market to really go off that

Deadline saying 125M for the 5-day

Norway 31.03-02.04 John Wick 4 - 2nd weekend: 16,092 / 62,635 total D&D - 1st weekend: 12,625/ 19,456 total (4551 admits in previews last the weekend before) 65 - 1st weekend: 2,153/ 2,856 total (had previews on wed + thur with ticket prices being 65 NOK in selected theaters) Shazam - 3rd weekend: 1,705/ 25,772 total Scream VI - 4th weekend: 1,525/ 20,914 total Creed 3 - 5th weekend: 1,023/ 40,573 Avatar 2 - 17th weekend: 782/ 695,272 total

Yeah Night 2 kinda ruined what could have been an all-timer Wrestlemania

This movie is getting a lot of spotlight at Wrestlemania

Awesome trailer!

Blue Beetle can also benefit from coming after The Flash. if Flash is very good as people have said then you can get a boost from the buzz it makes . Of course it needs to deliver on it´s own merits but a good Flash movie can help it.

Hoping for 250M+ worldwide 5-day opening

I think it´s just during the Baseball game, no more specific timeframe

400M hopefully then

Calling it now - this will surprise and make 400M worldwide

D&D had a better sunday than friday? is that normal

Has international legs been so good that it has already closed in the distance domestic had?

Could be that some people are still coming back from premiere, also sometimes people also just hold their reaction if review embargo is not much later which is the case her.

There are like zero reactions despite embargo dropping like a half a hour ago, have seen like 3

Ant-Man 3 fate was sealed by being one of the worst cbm´s ever made. Not by fatigue. The interest was there, at least domestic looking at the numbers in the thread. GotG vol 3 will have the interest aswell but I wouldn´t be surprised if the sales aren´t as strong as maybe we think. It will be a testament to the MCU fans, but they´re usually loyal and one of the strengths of the MCU is they have different franchises. Yeah Ant-Man sucked but Guardians is it´s own thing and people know that.
