the Butthurt DC Fans trolling the film...

I hope you are not including me to them .

Great WW total. And great domestic opening as well. Before seeing the movie, I thought 160M would be the range. Upping to 185M after watching it, so I'm very happy with the numbers.

 

Excited for 2nd viewing later on today.

It's always wonderful when a terrible movie falls short of expectations.

I want to congratulate to CW for a humongous weekend. Indeed a spectacular number. A few things we all were able to get from this movie.

 

No matter how big, no matter the time, no matter how many good reviews, no matter the lack of competition, for a movie to gross $200+ million at this age is EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY difficult.

 

We have been lucky to witness three movies to hit this mark in the last four years (two of them last year). But we better be careful of calling a movie a guarantee 200+ million nowadays.

 

 

 

And those three had something that would push them over that barrier.  Avengers - first culmination of a CBM shared universe. JW-a huge nostalgia trip for many. SW7- Star Wars nuff said.  

 

However, I think CW may have been a lot closer if not over 200,  if not for Deadpool and BvS opening .  2 mega CBM events would burn off GA demand IMO.

Also....$181M OW for CA3 is still damn good.

 

No need to be disappointed by that. I mean....not every new Marvel movie has to break records all the time.

Oh well. Can't please everybody.

[Lordmandeep]

Its a great opening

 

Perhaps Disney should have retitiled the film Avengers Civil War but then people would be pissed its a CA movie.

 

Would be similar domestic run but may have helped overseas.

How come Zootopia is expected to drop 50% on Sunday? That seems like a really harsh drop for mothers day. No other animated comp fell like that which.

200M should have been the floor. So in that respect it could be called disappointing. Still an OK number.
