Indiana Jones isn't even close to the others in popularity, I'd replace him with Scooby-Doo.

Xmen apocalypse already being walloped before it hits theatres. Singer should go back to his roots and just make great drama/thrillers/suspense movies.

I'm trying to think of characters that transcend their medium and anyone from 4 year old to a 84 year old.  Maybe add a character like Donald Duck?

As much as I am excited to see it and and happy for an R-rated movie breaking out, c'mon, Deadpool won't even be in Top 3 CBM's this year, neither DOM or WW. Not that that is taking away from it's amazing accomplishment. And, not that anyone else cares, but that seems like an ok number for How to Be Single.

It may have only been watched by one other person besides me in theaters, but Just Friends is still one of my favorite Ryan R. movie.

Just got back from Deadpool. It was actually pretty good. Very funny and the story was surprisingly effective. I actually can't think of much bad to say about it. It hit more than it missed. I don't think it's a masterpiece or anything but it had more smarts and storytelling craft than I thought it would. Didn't overstay it's welcome either, which many CBMs could learn from.

[kayumanggi]

That Saturday number.

I think reason he did it was because of bvs vs CW things.

He has gone on record saying that he'd literally quit caring about films in the case of BvS failing to deliver. That's the equivalent of me quitting films for the TASM2 disaster, which would be completely  nuts. Excuse me if this move screams to me bias.

Apocalypse doesn't have the old cast and the nostalgia factor going for it. There are well liked names in the cast, but I don't think Katniss can carry the X-Men movie on her back, because even though the other actors were involved in big productions, they aren't really Hugh Jackman. I sincerely think that DoFP will gross less than DoFP, and I'm not even entirely sure it'll break $200m.

Doctor Strange and Apocalypse are hardly going to make more than this, the only real threat is Suicide Squad, but it would have to be big... So why are you so sure it won't be in the top 3 domestic?

WW you're probably right, but only because of China...

Moderation:

 

ENOUGH WITH THE MARVEL/DC BULLSHIT. 

 

ENOUGH WITH THE COY INNOCENCE. 

 

If you want to talk about that stuff, go to the appropriate thread. 

 

If you want to start a club about DEADPOOL over whatever, go start a club.

WOW! Another shockingly high #! 

[kayumanggi]

People keep on using Hugh Jackman's name as if the WOLVERINE movies made 200 M.

Funny, I actually made a list around a year ago of the most guessed fictional characters on Akinator. I believe it was this:

 

800k+: SpongeBob

400k+: Mickey Mouse

300k+: Batman, Santa Claus

200k+: Superman, Spider-Man, Iron Man, Hulk, Scooby-Doo, Bugs Bunny, Ariel, Aladdin, Cinderella, Mario, Pikachu, Steve (Minecraft), Slender Man, Katniss Everdeen

100k+: Darth Vader, Naruto, Harry Potter, Garfield, Snoopy, Link, Sonic the Hedgehog, Ronald McDonald, The Doctor, Sheldon Cooper, God, many others

 

Bond was at 90k, Indiana Jones 50k, Sherlock Holmes 60k. Obviously this doesn't correspond to who is most well known, as God should probably be #1.

 

Most popular cartoon character: SpongeBob

Most popular comic book character: Batman

Most popular comic strip character: Snoopy

Most popular TV character: The Doctor

Most popular movie character: Darth Vader

Most popular literature character: Katniss Everdeen

Most popular classic literature character: Sherlock Holmes

Most popular video game character: Mario

Most popular anime character: Naruto

Most popular advertising character: Ronald McDonald

Most popular internet character: Slender Man

Most popular holiday character: Santa Claus

Most popular mythical character: God

LOL, how are you completely ignoring BvS and CW? And yes, I think SS will make more too. Marketing for it till now has been nothing short of incredible.
