DEADPOOL WEEKEND THREAD | Deadpool 152.193 actual. Daily breakdown on page 159

[The Futurist]

Fox should thank Warner for Green Lantern.

 

 

[The Stingray]

Why's it always films I have zero interest in (sw being an exception) doing bonkers numbers?

 

Anyways, here's to a 50 mill ow for The Witch next weekend.
 

[Goffe]

Maybe it can drop like 75% next weekend and another 60% when BvsS opens.

 

a man can dream....

[The Panda]

48m??? WHAT IS GOING ON??

[The Panda]

Deadpool, largest comic book movie of 2016???

[The Stingray]

Adventureland is his best film & performance, imo.

Haha, maybe the biggest comic book movie of 2014...

Ehhhh, GOTG will still probably have a higher finish.

Why? Deadpool also has a very good reception, it has even less competition in the first six week (Guardians had TMNT) and the OW is like 25% bigger. Adding to the fact that R movies usually have longer legs, I think it will be hard to miss the 333mi

[Jay Beezy]

So it's on track to make more in its first three days than Green Lantern did in its entire run.

Yes ive seen them all. Loved em too but especially Captive. IVe always said he has amazing screen presence. Captive was the movie i got RTH to look up for me on a patio in downtown Toronto when we met during Tiff in 2014.

Still betting on Civil War or maybe Suicide Squad

[MCKillswitch123]

Deadpool, an R-rated movie about a comic book character not a lot of people know much about, made by the studio whose last attempt at a SH movie was Fant4stic, dropped in February of all months, is gonna be the 1st $100M OW earner of the year, the 1st R-rated movie to reach that mark ever, and probably a top 10 if not top 5 DOM film of the year in general.

 

Okay. Sure. This isn't, like, psychopathic or anything.

[Poseidon]

People want superheros. There's no fatigue. They just get sick of writers running out of ideas. And then GOTG and Deadpool came.

No summer weekdays. This is probably going to beat DOFP but not much more than that. No way it grosses more than civil war or batman vs superman. Which both have more ideal release dates and wider audience appeal.

$48m is a higher OD than MJ2.

 

That's a great thing for Deadpool but so depressing for MJ2.

[EmpireCity]

Friday Estimate......

 

Deadpool - $47.5m

Well, there was arguably HG fatigue and wasn't MJ the weakest book in the series? Not to mention the incessant need to split a book into two movies.
