@giteshpandya 15m

#Lucy scores muscular #1 opening FRI w/ $17.1M heading to about $45M wknd. ScarJo proves she is bankable action hero.

 

 

Wow, great opening.  Black Widow movie needs to happen asap. 

[The Panda]

I expect Lucy to collapse next weekend though given WoM and direct competition with Guardians.

[Noctis]

Holy shit, that is amazing for Lucy.

I think it should hold pretty well. Lucy audience should be older than Guardian audience. 

[miketheavenger]

Next weekend could be the most interesting so far this year, depending how GOTG performs.

[Jack Nevada]

ScarJo is on a motherfucking roll.

[Blackout]

Wow all the holdovers got hit pretty hard, from some of the early weekend estimates.

Jeezus! Erc's twitter account is sooo snarky!

A Black Widow flick would probably open to double what Lucy does. Get on that shit, Feige.

I think there is a slight possibility that a Black Widow film is one of the unannounced MCU movies, probably one of the 2018 ones.

It is now. Marvel will change there plans up.

Hopefully. Marvel really needs a female-lead film. Hell, maybe even two of 'em!

If GOTG can get a movie there's no reason for BW not getting one.

Some characters make stronger supporting characters.

 

To me, Hulk and Black Widow are both examples of this.

 

Marvel's slate is busy as it is. They would be wise to stick to characters who can pull in 400+ m WW. 

 

and I believe even Ant-Man has a better chance at those numbers than BW.

Feige: "Don't force me into making a Widow movie, okay? Stop bossing me around!"

Yay for safe choices!

Give me a break. The character is fully established with audiences and Scarlett is a legitimate action draw. Not doing one just seems foolish.

^^ This.

Maybe they could do a Black Widow, Hawkeye, Fury, etc. team up movie?

 

Just put Widow front and center.

God forbid they even try to make a Black Widow movie. BRING ON THOR 3!
