20 previews
40 true Friday
40 Saturday
30 Sunday (-25%)
130 or thereabouts.
It needs 140 probably to get to 300...

Moderation:
Okay, using Marvel movies as comps for SS is acceptable.
Trashing Marvel fans as dumb is not.
Knock it off.
Can we trash Bay & Twilight fans? WOAT.

When RDJ eventually quits, as long as Marvel writes a good script, brings decent marketing, and find a charismatic actor, I think the next Iron Man will do well.
Well is all relative... Need to define the parameters better.

He likes both MoS and BvS.
Lol wow. So SS is either Oscar worthy or one of the bigger clusterf***s ever created.

I got this text form a friend
“No one should ever watch Suicide Sqaud ever."
What is your friend's take on other movies specifically CBMs? Need context here...

We all struggle at this, it's not easy for releases of new properties.

The level it's performing at is impressive ESP compared to what we would've thought pre Deadpool, can't be stated enough. Not exactly a surprise given the expectations recently however.

If you go with that argument why doesn't every comic movie open huge, suicide squad is relatively niche comparable to GOTG
Fair enough, I don't think anyone was expecting SS to have a less front loaded opening though?

What core fanbase? these are mostly unknown characters except the joker
Lol what do you mean? There isn't a built in fanbase for this series? News to me...
-
Zero doubt in my mind there is a big rush to see it due to how diehard the core base of SS fans are. I think it won't hit as well with the GA and legs will represent that. It's a really nice start having said that.

This is not any proof at all. SS has been set to open grand for a while now. You can't stop a hypetrain just like that...
Our members need to learn the difference in RT affecting OD/OW as opposed to the rest of the run.

That's not a good number. If you base it strictly on BvS then it does 127. Any other CB released in the last two years and it does over 130. 135-140 seems logical.
I'm not saying it will do $125m, I'm saying despite the great social media hype/ads this will not open like a traditional non-sequel. Even with the Olympics tonight, I expect the IM to be a lot closer to BvS as opposed to TDK.

Or how many people are throwing a bit of reality on it given the 6pm release, the potential T-Mobile fudge built in, the terrible reviews, etc....
The vast majority of people don't want this to fail and were hoping it would be a great movie. There is no conspiracy.
Hes having a borderline meltdown over SS, it's weird.

I just saw a comment here predicting 125m for OW. LOL WUT? This is a not a sequel. It should hold better than BvS/CW for the weekend.
It will be closer to 125m than you think, you clearly don't understand how frontloaded this could be.

Can Jeremy Renner make anything without a reliable co-lead though?
In all seriousness he's a much better actor than a B-list action star. Hopefully his agent can make better use of his talents that doesn't just chase the $$$.
-
With the STB drop, how many of you who called last weekend "good" or anything other than mediocre at best want to change their opinions? That's pretty lol compared to the first two bust ESP STID.

That's a nice last gasp for ID2 guys! Annihilation.
-
There was no competition & the schedule quality wise outside of animation has been largely weak as of late. SB had a chance to match STID & it won't come close. I'm just pointing this out in the larger picture.
-
It's 2016 everyone, even with a potential profit from the budget cut & international gross... $60m (& likely less) OW is not good I'm sorry (it may not be "bad" but I'm arguing it's alright). I-Robot, The Village opened to $52/$50m in 2004, it's always my favorite mid-late July comparable(s).

Star Trek numbers are decent. Should do just about what I expected considering the shitty marketing
I go step down from decent, they are ok. Ho hum seems appropriate as well.
