Hey guys, don't sleep on Bill Paxton on Agents of SHIELD. That was a career highlight.

 

 

 

You forgot this.

And yup! I figured with the negative 30 degree we're having it was appropriate winter pic.

At least another 40M because it is VD.

I think it'll reach very close with all those reports about sellouts in various international territories and it outpacing other movies. I think its locked to do over GoTG WW. IMO.

How is it locked to do 775M? Especially when GotG had 96.5M from China.

 

Jesus, people are taking crazy pills.

Good thing Tom Rothman is no longer at Fox. Deadpool staying true to character and having a R rating would've never happened with him there.

 

Poor Sony. Poor Spider-Man. Poor Kevin Feige.

 

Poor Kevin Feige?

People are forgetting this doesn't have China powah.

[grey ghost]

I'd be thrilled with 650 m WW.

 

Which is DOUBLE what I expected without China.

I think this has to be in the conversation for most shocking OW in the past decade.  I mean, American Sniper will probably take the crown for me for years to come but damn.  Even the most optimistic tracking had this at 75 (which would have been GREAT) but this thing has damn near doubled it for the 4 day.  What's even more nuts is it will almost have tripled it's budget by mid week, so this is going to be a HUGE hit for Fox.

 

I tried to see it yesterday and it was completely sold out so we went to see Zoolander.  Coming from someone who thinks the original really is a comedy classic,  I couldn't believe just how bad it was.  It played like a really, really shitty SNL skit and all of the films 'big' moments were just rehashes from the first.  So many cameos that it became distracting and annoying.  I knew it wouldn't live up to the first but it was just a travesty.

 

Gonna try to catch DP either tonight or tomorrow I hear it's fantastic.

Yeah, I think it's safe to say Deadpool will be bigger than GotG.

 

If someone told me that would happen a week ago I would've had them committed to an institution.

As box office pundits that analyse this kind of stuff? Yes, American Sniper is more impressive. For the general audiences though? What's happening with Deadpool is as much unreal to them as it's to us, especially when they get to know the budget for this.

Hopefully with this success that also means we'll see Morena Baccarin in more movies. She's wonderful.

I want to see next weekend before locking anything in

[Amrwael22]

dayuuuum i was positively thinking 90m 3day but this is insane.
the marketing team tho..

[K1stpierre]

I'm glad for Ryan. I goof on him all the time due to his flops, but it is good to see him come out on top for once.
