That's really awesome for The Witch

How Deadline calculates their Friday estimates:

It has a great shot.  Could be at $240m after 10 days. 

I doubt it.

Comicbook?

Of course you do.

I'm not seeing how Gambit will be anywhere as successful as Wolverine, let alone Deadpool.

 

Gambit can't even carry a comic book for long.

DC announced a Harley Quinn/Suicide Squad comic for release this summer yesterday. And a paperback of all of Batman and Supermans famous fights was released last month. Movies dictate comics now.

Yeah. The only way Its gonna be much of a success unless it is really well received (defs possible with Liman at the head) and has a modest budgets

People are coming back to their senses.

 

The fad is over.

 

Enjoy the memories.

 

Deadpool breaking out, those were the days.

A sub-50% drop after a holiday weekend is extremely rare for any superhero movie. So this would be a normal drop.

 

And you'll have to wait until after Deadpool 4 and X-Force 3 before the "fad" is over.

Doubt it. It had a pretty steep drop from last week here. 15M sounds accurate.

[Mojoguy]

Deadpool's 2nd weekend drop shouldn't be too bad since it is NOT a sequel.

[filmlover]

Yeah I imagine Deadpool is quickly gonna come back down to Earth. Such is always the case with a comic book movie, especially one with limited appeal (thanks to the R rating) like this has.

 

Of course it's still making otherworldly numbers compared to expectations before it opened.

It had huge pre-sales and a very inflated Sunday because of the holiday w/e.   A 57-60% drop from that is still solid.

[The Futurist]

No 400m for Muertopool ?

 

Bummer.

Guardians of the Galaxy: -55.3%

Man of Steel: --64.6%*

Fantastic Four: -59.4%

 

I don't know what you are considering "bad" but a drop like Guardians would give it 59M weekend; Man of Steel's would be 47M. 

 

Not being PG-13 may weaken the 2nd weekend. 

 

 

The drop here was surprising. Even considering that it is the holidays right now, I didn't expect it to be performing like this, thought it would do a bit better. I would say 55-60M.

Only 700 m WW for Flop Pool.
