Ice age 5 did 850k starting at 5pm with previews this same weekend last year. OW was $21.3m. Valerian did the double. Just sayin' and dreamin'

Focus on experience, not history about a real war event seems disrespectful IMO.

Dunkirk is a film that turns a REAL war event into a PG-13 spectable without the intention of focusing on the story, but on the war experience... I can imagine why someone would dislike the film.

Presales too. Very strong. I believe $4m at previews will be enough for a $50m+ opening.

Under $50m? I don't see happening. It looks stronger

So about $2m for Valerian? Shit

I can be wrong, but I feel something like $20m ow for Valerian still.

HOLY SHIT!!! AWEEEESOME!! It's a shame it is being released in a cursed month.

IS THAT SOME KIND OF JOKE FOR YOU? IT'S NOT FUNNY. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, THIS NEED TO BE A HIT. WATCH VALERIAN, I BEG. I NEVER ASKED YOU FOR ANYTHING

No surprise here. It's all about EXPERIENCE and a majestic cinematic EXPERIENCE like Valerian can not be spoiled in a thread.

It's INCREDIBLE how some people can change their opinion so quickly. Before SMH's drop: "SMH: Best Spider and MCU movie ever!!!!" After the drop: "Yeah, the movie is not that good, Raimi's movies were better" Lol

Sad is SM:H's drop

Nostalgic moment Insane WOM = 60%+ drop Good WoM = ~50% drop Okay Wom = 43.3% drop Bad Wom = ~30% drop So happy WW is winning the summer and CBM this year

What the hell are you talking about? Apes is not from Sony or Paramount.

Don't be a hypocrite defending him. I'm starting to doubt of your impartiality. If you see the last times that @That One Guy quoted me, you'll realize he's stalking me. I gave him a decent answer. Does he think he can do anything he wants just because he has a gold account? Probably, but not with me.

Who cares if a movie to be "considered" independent needs to have a low budget? Valerian still meets with all the others "requirements" and yes, it is an independent (highly budgeted) movie. Are you suggesting that Besson is having his film controlled by the studio? I've never read such a heretic post as yours. Forgive him, Oh, God Besson. Btw, that's not my point. Valerian is not being released by a global distributor. They have several different distributors overseas. Marketing can be very disharmonious and the potential of the box office maybe can be limited like the movies (non-sequels) with this kind of release. Well, but at least here, it is having a great marketing.

I really want this be a success, but the historical for non-sequel independent films at overseas box office isn't so good. The bigger one is Django with $262.5m, I guess. List of independent movies: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/widestindie.htm?page=WIDESTINDY&sort=gross&order=DESC&p=.htm I hope V can surpass it at least.

I'm expecting $7.5m at previews for TF5. I hope it goes higher.

Because I don't like watching studios floping like that and taking desperate moves like releasing a Transformers movie every year or doing 2 reboots of the same franchise within a single decade. If they are doing it, it is because the situation is getting precarious. Someone who hopes that their last desperate moves goes wrong is extreme malice with the workers of these studios and I'm not fine with that.

This is so sad. I think the same about Spider Man: H and my poor Sony.

WW had an increase this weekend here in my country. WOW From deadline: Still kicking ass overseas after three frames, WB/DC’s Amazon warrior cuffed $39.5M on roughly 16,390 screens in a total of 62 markets. The running international cume is now $297.2M. The global gross is $571.8M. The Gal Gadot-starrer has now topped the offshore lifetimes of The Wolverine, Thor and Iron Man. Germany was a new play at No. 1 while the UK and Brazil held the top spot this session. In China, the princess landed 3rd with a total to date of $82.7M. (On deck in the Middle Kingdom, Michael Bay’s Transformers: The Last Knight will suck all air out of the market this week.) Regionally, EMEA dipped 42% and Lat Am by 26%. Asia has put Diana Prince on top of Man Of Steel, Suicide Squad and Guardians 2. Germany‘s bow came in on par with Man Of Steel, and was well ahead of Marvel comps including The First Avenger and Ant-Man. Holland also joined the charge with $982K (875K euros), including sneaks, on 186 screens. And Norway debuted to $810K (NOK 6.9M), including sneaks, on 240 screens, ranking a clear No. 1 and on par with Logan. The Top 5 markets are China ($82.7M), Brazil ($23.7M/+16%), the UK ($20.7M), Mexico ($18.9M) and Australia ($15.3M).

X-Men First Class $207,215,819 The Conjuring $180,600,000
