When so many movies hit the high end marks, like the $300M or above, usually there is a vacuum at the bottom.

Utron, Furious 7, Inside Out & Jurassic World seem to be sucking the life out of potential decent hits like F7 kills

Paul Blart, Ultron kills Tomorrowland, Jurassic World kills Ted 2 etc. I won't be surprised if 2015 falls short of the record 

of 33 $100M movies but it will break the "$300M or more" records. 2015 will break 2012 record of 5 "$300M+" movies

 

There could also be 4 films grossing over $400m. which would be a first as well.

it should come close(the 100 million record), 300 is for sure I think right now there's likely going to be at least 7 are going to do it, and the 200 million one could happen it's a 50/50 because I'm thinking total of the year would be close to 2013's. Edited by Maxmoser3

What about Spy? It's 88.4m now.

Yeah, Spy could do it. But Minions may get there before it; if not it would be close. This weekend could do really well in Spy's favor.

Edit: 5-day weekend means Spy could get there before Minions.

Because I'm bored, I'm going to try to break down how many more movies could do it this year:

 

Locks:

Spy

Minions

Mission Impossible

Spectre

Mockingjay

The Good Dinosaur

Star Wars

7

 

Near locks:

Pixels

Ant Man

The Hateful Eight

3

 

Contenders:

Ted 2

Terminator

Magic Mike

Fantastic Four

Vacation

Trainwreck

The Scorch Trials

Hotel Transylvania 2

Everest

Pan

The Walk

Steve Jobs

In the Heart of the Sea

Peanuts

Joy

15

 

Long shots:

Paper Towns

The Man From UNCLE

Masterminds

The Martian

The Intern

Bridge of Spies

Jem and the Holograms

The Last Witch Hunter

Xmas

Creed

Sisters

Alvin and the Chipmunks 4

The Revenant

Snowden

14

 

So I'd say 39 movies still have 100m potential. Not counting if we have the little indie/Oscar movie(s) breakout. We should definitely get the record this year.

Terminator will do it thanks to dailies, and dollar theaters. Minions will do it, Spy will do it around the same time as Minions. Ant-Man for sure, Trainwreck might do it but there hasn't been a comedy out there this summer besides Spy to spark out. Pixels has potential and it looks fun. MI:5 of course.Vacation I still see it playing like Tammy.

Terminator: Genisys (We shall see how it holds up)

Minions (Will pass in first three days)

Ant-Man (Obvious pass)

Trainwreck (Good Chance)

Pixels (Obvious Pass, might over-perform most likely)

Paper Towns (So-So, We'll have to see Opening Weekend how it does)

MI5 (Obvious Pass)

Vacation (Good Chance)

Fantastic Four (Good Chance)

Straight Outta Compton (Could surprise for sure. It certainly has potential)

Everest (Good Chance)

Maze Runner 3 (Good Chance)

Hotel Transylvania 2 (The GA loved the film so it is most likely an obvious pass)

The Martian (#1 bestseller and good buzz/Oscar talk are a great mix if you ask me)

Pan (We'll have to wait and see for sure)

Bridge of Spies (Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg, and a movie about an interesting period of time. Good enough to get past $100 million)

Crimson Peak (Doubtful but one can dream, can't they?)

Spectre (A no-brainer. Could it hit the mark in three days?)

Peanuts Movie (Obvious Pass)

Mocking jay Part 2 (First Three Days)

Good Dinosaur (No-brainier)

Creed (First trailer got good reactions and it could end up surprising)

In the Heart of the Sea (Doubtful but one can dream)

Star Wars (Do I even need to comment?)

The Hateful Eight (Django Unchained made around $165 million domestically. This isn't out of the realm of possibility)

The Revenant (Possible. Might make over $100 million barely at the most)

26 possible movies that could make over $100 million.
