Nah man. Detective Pikachu gave me so many cute moments and gifs. It didn’t do that well at the box office but I still enjoyed that film and stand behind it.

Oh that's not even a question. With how massive this movie managed to be in spite of a rather mixed early reception, a sequel is only a matter of time. This movie will easily pass TJB and that movie has a sequel in the works.

Some data that may be of interest to determine Aladdin's final gross:

 

In its sixth weekend, Aladdin grossed $10,114,122. These are all the films released in May or June (since 2001) that grossed between $9.5M and $10.5M in their sixth weekend, and how much they added from that point onwards:

 

Shrek ($10,405,731): $52,432,994
Spider-Man ($10,311,062): $33,278,192
Shrek 2 ($10,216,452): $44,443,712
The Hangover ($9,933,238): $54,877,597
Wonder Woman ($9,822,105): $44,090,112

 

On the basis of the above, the worst-case scenario is $339,910,260 (if Aladdin follows Spider-Man) and the best-case scenario is $361,509,665 (if it follows The Hangover). If The Hangover is to be excluded because of the different genre and audience, then the best-case scenario is $359,065,062 (if Aladdin follows Shrek).

 

In its seventh weekend, Aladdin grossed $7,515,649. These are all the films released in May or June (since 2001) that grossed between $7M and $8M in their seventh weekend, and how much they added from that point onwards:

 

Shrek ($7,707,203): $39,522,882
Spider-Man ($7,515,984): $21,168,706
Incredibles 2 ($7,257,113): $35,700,983
Jurassic World ($7,181,175): $28,186,675

 

On the basis of the above, the worst-case scenario is $341,873,971 (again, if Aladdin follows Spider-Man) and the best-case scenario is $360,228,147 (again, if it follows Shrek).

Based on your 2 sets of scenarios, maybe 340 to 360 for Aladdin then.

TLK should boost it a decent amount I think, 360+

[jedijake]

$350-$360 million domestic. Projections keep rising week after week. I remember hoping it would make $200-$250 million because projections were so low.

 

$1 billion WW seems certain now. $960 million WW and the foreign drops are as small as the domestic ones. $20-$25 million more domestic easily and at least $30 million more foreign. Boom, it's there. Whodda thunkit?

[SteveJaros]

So Aladdin is going to reach $1B WW after all! 

 

What an amazing outcome.

$1b is pretty much locked and it's looking more and more like 1.050b is the target. Aladdin was at 922.7m at the end of last weekend and is now at 960.2m (est.) at the end of this weekend. That means it made 37.5m (probably more with actuals) over the past week and would only need better than -48.5% week-to-week drops to reach $1b. Thus far it has been dropping at roughly half of that. With ultra leggy markets like Japan and South Korea carrying the OS grosses, expect the weekly declines to continue to be small.

 

If week to week drops are:

48.5% -> 1.000b finish (from above)

45% -> 1.006b finish

40% -> 1.016b finish

35% -> 1.030b finish

30% -> 1.048b finish

25% -> 1.072b finish

 

And just for shits and giggles... 21.1% -> 1.100b finish!

I hope shits and giggles scenario wins.

Good news for fans of the live action Aladdin. The sequel is in development and is happening. It’s said that it’ll be based on the animated ”direct to video”-sequel to the 1992 animated film, ”The Return of Jafar” (though hopefully a much better received version of that film, although that film was the pilot to the animated series it would get afterwards).

 

Which could mean......Iago will be one of the good guys (like in the animated version if you have seen that film). 💁🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️

Is it confirmed by Disney or just pure speculation from the trades?

With this Sunday, Aladdin enters a massive tie for 5th place in “most consecutive days above 1M” among films this decade. If Monday can stay above, it will pull ahead of JW, TFA, WW, and IW at 45, and at least tie Frozen’s 47. If Mon, Tues, and Thirs all make it it will tie for first place with TA, BP, and I2 at 52 days. 

On the days over 1M front, this Sunday officially ties things up with 52. Theoretically a 45% Mon drop could get it to break the 1st place logjam with 54+, but I can’t quite see that happening.

OW ranked 68th (now 69 after TS4).

2nd weekend ranked 81st (now 82nd after TS4).

3rd weekend ranked 76th.

4th weekend ranked 58th.

5th weekend ranked 36th.

6th weekend ranks 40th.   

7th weekend ranked 39th.

8th weekend flat at 39th place (beating the previous 39th - The Lion King ). To get its 5th consecutive top 40 weekend will need just 4.74M next weekend, which I’m optimistic about.    

 

I think it will beat Inside Out. The top of this range seems difficult with some kind of Labor Day action, but... 🤷‍♂️
