I'm not feeling Gambit right now. Not necessarily because of Tatum, but because I've read they're not being modest with the budget like they were for Deadpool. Does a Gambit movie sound exciting now in the wake of Deadpool?

 

What if...

 

Deadpool was in it?!

135 without 3D is phenomenal, I think it just about squeaks by TMR adjusted.

Holy cow!

If they move forward with Gambit, Fox will have a flop that will kill the momentum from Deadpool. They need to focus on Deadpool and X-Force.

[kayumanggi]

You are fucking kidding me.

[dignam]

20th fox right now after seeing the estimate.

X-Force with Wolverine and Deadpool. Make it happen Fox.

 

My God. Please do this.

[cory]

It's also bigger than any opening between Catching Fire and Furious 7 was.

They need to make him a bad ass. Looked like a weakling in X-MEN ORIGINS: WOLVERINE.

The number by itself is ridiculously crazy but consider this:

 

It's R Rated

It has no 3D

It's February

It only had a theater count of 3,558. No film in the Top 20 All time biggest opening weekends has had less than 4,004.

The average theater gross is $37,957 which is higher than The Dark Knight ( $36,283 ), The Dark Knight Rises ( $36,532 ) and The Hunger Games ( $36,871 ).

 

I'm literally in disbelief at what has transpired this weekend.

I thought STAR WARS: TFA would make more than THE REVENANT this weekend. Ended up wrong. lol

 

As mentioned elsewhere Rev may increase over last weekend! Now THAT is amazing.

SW Ep. III Revenge Of The Sith ($108M) and X-Men The Last Stand ($102M).

 

Deadpool beat ROTS's record by nearly $30M. Every bit as insane as Heath Ledger's Joker.

To be fair, ROTS opened on a (full) Thursday (highest opening Thursday ever). It made $158M with it included. 

 

EDIT

 

Not to take anything away from Deadpool. Crazy numbers.

Some of those are reasonably old records as well, just insanity.
