It'll be interesting to see what Suicide Squad can open to.

 

Maybe it'll be 3 for 3 for the DCEU with $100m+ openers?

I got:

 

Civil War

X-Men Apocalypse

Suicide Squad 

Huntsman Winters War

 

Seems to be an appropriate inclusion. Emily Blunt and Charlize Theron looking like female superhero going against her villain nemesis anyway.

Yeah, it's probably a good idea to not doing this if you wanna avoid coming across as way too strong, iJack.

 

Ya know what, it is most definitely a good idea.

Like I've said, it was after watching the film and sleeping on it I was still royally pissed. I'm vocal, like I'd be with any given film from either studio/fandom that I had a major anticipation/interest with. Discussing how I react and painting me like a fandom enemy like Tele is doing won't make him job any easier. When people get pissed with Trank, Webb or others, it's about the films, not about us users, as it should imho.

After seeing it for my 3rd time the biggest reaction at my theatre was Ghostbusters I was quite surprised. 

 

Yep, mine too. Star Trek Beyond was pretty close.

I don't think you're an enemy of fandom, I think you're a guy who tends to react in an extreme manner when it comes to CBMs, whether positively or negatively.

[Krissykins]

Nice to hear, maybe there's hope for Ghostbusters yet. 

[Lordmandeep]

A note about the WW numbers is that they are 4th highest but does not mean  a WW gross around 1.5 billion as the other films did not open in all markets. 

[Heat Vision]

Not having China screwed Deadpool out of a couple million.

Trailer reception isn't everything though. Brothers Grimsby's trailer had a fantastic reception at Deadpool (not just from my theater, others on this forum have had the same experience) and look how that turned out.

The second oldest monthly OW record just fell. Oldest existing Monthly OW record is still the July record for DH2 which was set in 2011.

The Avengers OW won't be beat til 2019.

mmmm....no.  

 

Contrary to other CBM that roll all of their markets at different time, it has opened in every market bar a small one.  

 

It won't hit $1.2B let alone $1.5B. 

 

It will either fall between TDK and TDKR numbers or between TDKR and IM3.  

[Water Bottle]

$170 million OW?

 

Zach Snyder just got himself a pay raise.

$1.5B locked for BVS?

 

[eddyxx]

Is this the best sequence in any super hero movie?

 

 

[a2k]

BvS had a 424m WW ow.

44m came on Wed and Thu OS and 27.7m in Thu previews Dom.

So for the sake of the following calculations, the true-ow was 353m WW.

It needs 576m more to get 1b. That's 1.63x of 353m more or a global true-ow multiplier of 2.63x.

1b = 2.63 x 353m + 44m + 27.7m
