It's going to take a hit no matter what opens against it, no one cares. And they think bringing back Orlando Bloom is gonna help it 

 

Yeah but ultimately that's probably going to be the end of Depp's relationship with Disney anyways. They could simply dump it without marketing and it'd still make decent money overseas. Wonder Woman has a lot more riding on it, like the future of the DCEU.

Alice's drop in Europe is gonna be as brutal as in America. 

 

Next up: Now You See Me 2

DOFP had a 2.11x multi from its 4-day OW. With the same multi Apocalypse would make $190m based off a $90m estimate.

 

Same 4-day multi as Last Stand (1.91x) though would only give $172m.

Some of the Jungle Book, Zootopia and Civil War money will be paying for Finest Hours and Alice 2.

TMNT2 is coming first  

 

After that yes, it is NYSM2's time.

It'll be closer to The Last Stand for sure. Hell it could end up just barely above the first movie's 157m.

I don't think TMNT's drop is going to be as brutal, should squeak by 100M dom

I get serious ASM2 vibes from TMNT2. Probably going to face the same drop.

That would be incredibly terrible multiplier off a $90M 4-day. I guess it's possible.

Will probably reach the mainstream fully later today when the entertainment and news shows report on it.

Depp stories are big news here due to doggiegate.

The first one did 191M DOM lol. That is a 90M drop.

What about The Conjuring 2 ?

It'll still do fine for its budget tho, not a full-on tank

[a2k]

So Alice is 1.5 + 7.5?

Tomorrowland was 0.75 + 8.97

Even though both have a similar OD of 9 vs 9.72, removing the previews it's 7.5 vs 9.

Gives Alice a 36m 4-day opposed to Tomorroland's 42.7m.

That should do well. Good timing for a big horror flick.

TMNT2 won't drop a lot, at least not enough to be called a flop or a bomb. I still see around a 50M OW and around a 120-150M close for it. They have a lot of fan trust this time with the introduction of Krang, Bebop, Rocksteady and Casey Jones. Fans have been waiting forever to see those characters in a big screen adaptation.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

It wouldn't surprise me if The Conjuring 2 outgrosses the first. I trust in Wan.

It is gonna do 90-100M DOM. Not that bad and with a small budget it is another big win.
