Are we going to do this every Friday night/Sat morning? BvS has had a shitty increase every Friday. Nothing new. Zootopia also had a shitty increase.

 

Get over it folks and move on.

$32.5m for Jungle Book, but don't quote me on that.

A big thanks to whoever did not say that TJB has not made 32.5m.

Still has a shot at 100m.

32.5 + 40 (+23%) + 27.5 (-31.25%) = 100

Wishful thinking at its finest.

Wishful thinking at it's FG finest, eh? Rth says $32M+ Friday.

[EmpireCity]

I am still sticking with my prediction that BvS ends up outside the Top 10 this year.  Already will be at #5 behind Deadpool, Zootopia, Jungle Book and Captain America: Civil War in a few weeks.  Fully expect Dory, Fantastic Beasts and Rogue One to be ahead of it putting it at #8 in even the best case of scenarios.

With luck, it will be $50 million Friday when all is said and done.

Not sure about Fantastic Beasts.

Disney can't stop dominating.

 

I wish the whole marketing department from Disney Portugal would get fired. They can't sell a movie. Every Disney movie except animations underperforms badly here.

 

Let's not forget that all these massive successes can be attributed to the great and highly acclaimed movies they're making. From Star Wars to Zootopia to Jungle Book, the critics adore them very much and they resonanted well with the audience. Audience very much checks RT and that also can be a big influence.

 

Now let's see if the critical acclaim streak continues with Civil War.

That is already a lock.  Civil War is sitting at 94% on Rotten Tomatoes with 17 positive and 1 negative.  It shouldn't likely drop below 90% when the rest of the reviews come in.

I think outside top 10 will be tough. both SS and FB will have to over-perform (WB won't mind that one bit ). But I don't see it happening. DP, Zootopia, TJB, CW, Dory, Rogue One will push it to #7. Need 4 more movies to push it to #11. SS and FB have a small shot if they have great GA reception. Moana being from WDAS cannot be ruled out. Even if SS, FB, Moana do more than BVS, it will still be at #10.

You should get sure, it is going to be a huge hit for Warner Bros.  

[NickFury90]

at this point $850m might be out of range for BvS lol

[Blankments]

Very good for Jungle Book btw. Really looking forward to seeing it tonight

It is a long shot, but think it is going to happen.  SS, Moana, ID:R, Secret Life of Pets all have a shot in addition to what I listed.

I have a feeling you already watched FB. It is great to hear that there are lots of good movies ahead.  WB is a regular studio with movies over 300M mark.

I haven't seen it or anything, but the reception and look to the trailer as well as knowing the audience and release date makes me think it will open huge and get over $330m domestic.
