Here's a question: besides The Last Jedi, could BATB be the biggest OW of the year? Or do you guys think that maybe Guardians will topple it?

Yeah, I think it's the safe favorite for #2 OW of the year. Guardians has an OK shot, but thinking that will be more like 150m atm.

Are you insane? That's not possible. 

 

$16m would be great. I'm thinking $15m.

We also thought it was impossible for Saturday to stay flat from Friday plus previews and yet it happened. IMO it's already been shown that anything's possible with this movie. That being said, I'm also expecting 15-16m today because it's clearly a family-skewing film.

The only movies with any chance at topping that number are GotG2 and JL, and I think both will fail to reach 150M OW, let alone 175M :lol:

I think Justice League depends a little on Wonder Woman. If WW is good-great, and its reviews are good, it could hit 150-160M. Though I still see an OW under BVS anyway :lol:

Hmmm, I could be way off, but I don't know if Guardians 2 has what it takes to increase so much from the first one. I feel like an Iron Man 2 bump is more likely, something in the $120-130M range.

 

That's pretty much the number I'm predicting. A 20% increase for its opening weekend.

People are underestimating JL.

 

If Wonder Woman is poorly received (which Id put at 50/50 at this point.  Despite looking good, DCU hasnt had the best track record so far) then id be hard pressed to see JL even do over 300m.

 

It's surrounded by strong competition.

And to think that, even without BATB, Disney would still have Guardians 2, Pirates 5, Cars 3, Thor 3, and the ultimate cherry on top of the cake, The Last Jedi, to come.

And to think that next year, they'll be releasing Infinity War, Han Solo, Mulan and The Incredibles 2, and in 2019, Star Wars IX, Avengers 4, Indy 5, Toy Story 4 and possibly The Lion King. Hail Mickey.

And Spider-Man this year!
