A great performance… still not really close to avengers level (those are the two worst avengers performances) Edited August 27 by Cooper Legion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BP1 and NWH the only MCU nonavengers to be in that tier dom, just nwh WW. Deadpool in the next tier down, which is insanely impressive still, just no need to get carried away like main comment I responded too 😛 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually insane how solo BP did the same-ish as three Spider-Men (and all the villains). Edited August 27 by HummingLemon496 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HummingLemon496 Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 2x DP2, Barbie, 3x legs, and above IW post OW are basically all the same goal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THUNDER BIRD Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 23 hours ago, Cooper Legion said: After this does outside the top 15 WW when every single Avengers movie made top 5? This movie is doing great and I’m happy for it, but it is decidedly not, as the kids say, an Avengers level threat You really think that Kang Dynasty would've been Avengers level threat in itself. They had Avengers from Wallmart and a failed Villain. Kang Dynasty was heading towards a trainwreck. Only after bringing back RDJ & banking on Russos they have been able to make people interested.

I didn’t say anything about Kang Dynasty. Only 4 avengers movies exist, their strength is what it is. If there is some new weaker state of affairs someday we will adjust what it means to be on avengers level, but you can’t downgrade based on movies that don’t exist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMC Theaters Enjoyer Posted August 28 Share Posted August 28 I saw this movie last night. Back home and the father wanted to see it. i can safely say that Hugh Jackman hasn’t missed a step as Logan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Movie opens 200+ and gets a solid Score from audience because it is crowd pleasing and we then look back at this thread with some embarrassment and some laughter. This aged well So funny how people were INSISTING that this would collapse because "oh no 55 metacritic" And then they went back in their dens once it got an A CinemaScore 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's incredible how an R-Rated Deadpool + Wolverine is having a Jurassic World/Avengers 1 level performance domestically. Though this is kinda a Star Wars situation where OS is big but not THAT big for how insane the domestic performance is.

Basing your decision on Meta critic and online reactions which sounded like they hated the genre itself wasn't a smart thing to do. Certain things that may not work for online would work for audience, and it was clear with RT reception which was at that point 80+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that’s not exactly a large sample size, but they don’t seem that insane to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opening to 200 M + and grossing more than 600M + is a big thing which puts it in a big league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderByte Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 I think we can safely say, now that we have a reasonable example size, that when something hits 200+ it means something culturally in a way that supercedes normal performances. If it can get up to 200, it can get to 600 DOM close to guaranteed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted August 29 Share Posted August 29 Post pandemic, I notice movies with huge openings will get great legs while flops straight up collapse with horrible legs like The Marvels and Borderlands. When audiences show up they show up big time, but failures straight up fail to even double their OW which was just unthinkable a few years back when flops could still develop legs. I think Inflation and streaming is playing a big part of this trend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
