We're probably in for another one of these next weekend. Alice 2 and Apocalypse are probably not going to make for a very exciting Memorial weekend.

Reminds me of the year with Sex and the City 2 and Prince of Persia

Wtf are you talking about. There were 12 weeks between Deadpool and Civil War.

 

In 2014: Winter Soldier, Spiderman 2, and X Men released within 7 weeks of each other...

 

I think you missed the point. The GA has already spent for two CBMs plus the family films that are ZOOTOPIA and THE JUNGLE BOOK. They have grossed more than 1.3 B combined. The 2014 movies you mentioned only made almost 700 M.

You forgot about BvS? 880M WW and 330M DOM is still big lol. 

No I didn't? BvS was released in the middle of those two. Between 12 Feb and 6 May, there were 3 superhero movies.

I misread your post. Nevermind.

If Dory underperforms too, then we're in for a boring ass summer

[kayumanggi]

Maybe for geeks like us, we can afford to watch these cbms and big family films every month, but for members of the GA especially families, it would be difficult.

Because since Avengers, Ultron, Jurassic World & Force Awakens everybody stupidly convinced themselves that doing 1,5B WW is no biggie.

 

Most people swallowed the hilarious Ultron was a disapointment kool-aid.

 

Oh and everybody ALSO convinced themselves Captain America : Civil War was called Avengers 3 on the billboards.

 

Also, everybody stupidly forgot that Civil War is the THIRD big superhero movie in just 3 months, something that has never happened in the history of film, followed by a FOURTH big superhero 3 weeks later.

 

Ultron was a disappointment, no two ways about it.

 

and people are not that dumb, it doesn't need to be spelled out for them in big letters that it's a Avengers movie. It has Iron Man and most avengers in the posters.

What is the average number of movies an American watches every year? I usually watch 25-30.

A $1.4 billion film is not a disappointment.

Cap3's FSS overseas was lower than domestic this weekend.

THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE made an estimated $55M overseas this weekend, for a $111M overseas / $150M global total. #TheAngryBirdsMovie

[MCKillswitch123]

Gotta say though, Summer hasn't been very interesting so far. And next week probably won't be a barn burner between X-Men and Alice 2 (costing me BO Casino points if Apocalypse doesn't beat at least 78M on the 3-day, which it probably won't because fuck my life). To the loonies of anti-Pixar movements, let me remind you that if Finding Dory underperforms, you'll have pretty much jackshit to chew on during the Summer unless Suicide Squad, Pets and Bourne become juggernauts.

Yeah, Civil War is the third Avengers movie. I don't really know why people are trying to argue otherwise... and it's not like the numbers are far off Ultron. Opened to 12M less, will finish about 40M less. Given Ultron dropped from the previous movie, it makes sense that this one drops a little from Ultron.
