With the hard drops in China, SK, HK, Russia, UK, Germany and maybe Australia I think that O/S # looks very generous

 

It doesn't fare that well in France too.

 

Basicly 2/3 of the key big markets are experiencing massive drops currently.  

 

So far, the only ones that are holding on are south american ones.  

 

But the western big markets and the asian big ones have been dropping fast since the start of the week for the asian ones and more recently in Europe.

 

I see a final foreign take around $550M as the ceiling at this point.

Disney’s Zootopia was second yesterday with an estimated $3.2M taking its four week total to $255.9M. In third, Gold Circle/Playtone/HBO’s My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 from Universal filed an opening week of $25.36M after a $1.6M Thursday.

 

So Zoo is up a healthy amount and Greek is flat.... That puts a slightly different spin on the BvS #. And again this is not coming from the perspective of a "hater."

I'm somewhat surprised the OS isn't higher for this thing. I thought bat and sup were like, worldwide known. Then again, I'm always bad at predicting OS  

 

Well it opened fine, but y'know, the movie isn't very good

So Zootopia increased more or less on par with The Croods, so 2013 may in fact be a good comparison http://www.boxofficemojo.com/daily/chart/?sortdate=2013-04-04&track=gijoe2.htm&p=.htm

 

If BvS follows GI Joe, it'll hit ~$54M for the weekend. I think that's the ceiling considering it has held worse on every single weekday.

Yay! This makes a big 5th weekend even more possible. For the first time, my derby entry ($19 M) might not overshoot it.

Only hope this has for a billion is if it is a weekend film

Never mind, quoted the wrong post.

Thu: 7.7m

Fri: 15.8m

Sat: 21.3m

Sun: 13.4m

Wknd: 50.5m (-69.7%)

 

60m isn't happening guys, it would need a very large Fri increas

 

Your Friday scenario is too harsh though, why would it only get a 105% increase?

[a2k]

The drop is great but after a 34% drop on Wed it still lags F7's 8.22m Thursday despite having a marginally bigger Sunday.

F7's Fri, Sat, Sun percentages will give it 56m; imo +/- 2 for 54-58m.

 

If it has F7 like legs after the 2nd weekend, it needs ~62m to get to 375m. 60m with those same legs gives it 370m. 54-58m gives it 355-365m.

I had thought it would do 1B WW, but I guess I over shot it quite a bit.

A -86% drop Friday to Friday in China

-73% in South Korea 

wow

Where my God's Not Dead preview numbers at?

[Lordmandeep]

So 3 years of hype and two of the biggest heroes ever and the film is heading to a domestic total the size of the first ten days of the Avengers.

This is a weekend film. Teens and young adults give it an A rating. 

Who are these teens and young adults? I'm a young adult and I certainly didn't give it an A rating.

To be fair, you're really comparing apples to oranges. Avengers is a full cast of superheroes banding together, vs. bat vs sup where you have only 1 movie to develop a character (superman from MOS) because ben affleck's batman had to be developed (I'm assuming?) in this movie. It would have been a fair more accurate comparison if it were Justice League, and the characters have their own background movies out.
