It's already well above $1.9B I am 100% certain that if DP2 had opened in August (which made so much sense) then AIW would have made at the very least $100M more WW, maybe even $200M more. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is why I’m hoping they move IW2 to December 2019. Let it have Christmas time, I’d like to see how much more it’d gross with benefits of Christmas and New Years(look what it did for Jumanji 2) Move SW9 someplace else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bladels Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 No new competition this week, IW's heading for a very nice weekend. $2B is pretty much locked and with China and DOM pulling some nice late legs, it may get close to TFA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Disney will be eager to protect the suddenly uber-fragile Star Wars franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DP2 didn't open in China and in most other places the drops against DP2 weren't that harsh. I think $50M definitely could have been possible. But those arguments can be made for 95% of films.

Thrylos 7 Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 It would have gone above TFA without Deadpool 2 , but it’s not that big of a deal. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys calm down, the franchise scored the two biggest opening weekends of all time (at the time) and still holds two of the Top 3. This is not an uber fragile franchise at all. It just happens to be that overseas, it is not such a big thing as it is in North America (but it is still massive). That's it. We can't expect it to break records with every single outing. People thought the Avengers were over when Age of Ultron grossed less than the Avengers. The drama is ridiculous. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceFire9yt Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 (edited) Yeah, don't see how TFA's in reach. With optimistic guesses it can get close... Domestic: 680M China: 370M OS-China: 990M Total: 2.04B Guess we have to wait for the re-release. Edited June 2, 2018 by IceFire9yt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So much hate for Star Wars, i don´t really know why many of you want that Infinity beats TFA, Episode VII is a much better film than Avengers 3. If the Chinese had better taste, The Force Awakens could had been the #2 worldwide. 1 2 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says a lot when your franchise is utterly rejected by every country that doesn’t have nostalgia for the OT though 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IW atleast has developed characters, a better story (not saying much tbf) and a villain that puts the cry baby Kylo to shame. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember that? Its not even prettier. Its ugly. Its almostly claustrofobic to watch it. The PT and OT offered great great pictures and memes. The dialogue in TFA is just a bunch of ugly clicheese whereas the dialogue (even the Line about sand) has some meaning. The scripts of TPM through ESB are watershed, meaningful and pregnant whereas the script of TFA is just blah.. extreme disaster.

RRA Posted June 2, 2018 Share Posted June 2, 2018 TFA was decent, but in terms of scope IW was superhero LOTR 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
