It will be a photo finish between Godzilla and TASM2 in terms of final gross by the looks of it.

 

 

Godzilla is in free fall

[Noctis]

Godzilla's legs are shocking.

Hollywood Reporter says DOFP is expected to earn 38-40m. 

[Blankments]

Well shit. That is gonna be a big OW.

Box Office: 'Maleficent' Bewitches Friday Moviegoers for $65 Million-Plus Debut

 

Angelina Jolie's live-action fairy tale Maleficent is whipping up a powerful potion at the Friday box office, where it could approach $25 million for the day for a weekend debut in the $65 million-plus range. Disney considers anything over $60 million a victory.Seth MacFarlane also enters the fray with A Million Ways to Die in the West, which looks to debut in the $20 million-plus range, well shy of the $54.4 million debut for Ted on the same weekend two years ago (Ted went on to become the top-grossing original R-rated comedy of all time, earning $549.4 million globally).Million Ways to Die is projected to come in No. 3 after Maleficent and Fox's Days of Future Past, which is expected to earn $38 million to $40 million in its second outing after opening to a dazzling $110.7 million over Memorial Day weekend.

Good gawd take this shit outta here

Godzilla is in free fall

Here it is already below Neighbors 4th weekend and Grace of Monaco 2nd weekend. This thing is having some crazy drops. 200M are in danger. Right now I think the target is a 2.0x multiplier.

38M would still be good for DOFP.

[CJohn]

Uh...

 

I guess someone didn't like Spatula numbers in the title?

 

 

I still left the reference there, but since we already had full estimates... 

[Jessie]

That's great for Xmen

[kayumanggi]

The last time there wasn't any 300 M May film was in 2011.

[#ED]

[CJohn]

It would have been a better movie if that was real 

[Heat Vision]

Is it true that Seth McFarlane killed Bryan for a month so he could film A Million Ways To Die In The West?

[Biggestgeekever]

I'd consider $38m a huge success for DOFP. Would put it on pace to be the biggest X-men domestically.

[rockNrollaDIM]

There was once a time where I thought "A Million Ways" would give Maleficent a run for its money for #1 this weekend...
