Did you miss the opener this weekend?

 

even that is not a flop. So the statement stands. 

 

 

Studios like Paramount or Sony would kill for a movie that will make what Pirates will worldwide. 

[ThomasNicole]

Disney is having a great year, i predicting something like:

 

BATB - $ 1.25b

Guardians 2 - $ 850m

Pirates 4 - $ 800m

Cars 3 - $ 550m

Thor 3 - $ 800m

Coco - $ 600m

Star Wars 8 - $ 1.7b

It's a "miss" in terms of Disney juggernauts but it's still probably going to do $700m+ WW.

Thinking Pirates might go sub XMA. It has a lot of competition second weekend and drop 60%.

 

Will be close, but I think it goes slightly over thanks to family appeal.

Not so sure Ridley's going to be able to finish the prequel-sequel Alien story now.... Terrible number.  

I mean hopefully that means he'll do some other interesting projects instead

And why Valerian will do under Beast's OD for domestic gross.

[John Marston]

honestly another Alien movie with a medium budget, a release date in February or August or something, and in 3D would probably still be an OK bet. Might be time for a different director though

Pirates isn't going below Apocalypse

You've said like 10 variations of the "lol Valerian will flop" joke in the past 2 days

its 7 day OS gross was less than 20m. No way its going to make another 100m WW. It has opened everywhere.

 

Domestically it will be  hit hard next weekend by Wonder Woman.

I don't think it will drop hard because of WW, i see both co-existing.

 

I can see + $ 55m domestic, and more $ 15 - 20m OS, for totals around $ 850 - 860m.

[cookie]

That's a shit-awful drop for Alien. Under $75m DOM?

[YM!]

The only way for GV2 to do over BvS WW is if it pulls in $385M-$390M domestic and does around $485M OS. I don't think that's happening.

B/c it has so much less competition coming in the next few weeks than Apocalypse did?

Just waiting for a comeback and you roasting Ninjago. But I'll stop the jokes for a while.

Pretty much locked. Small chance it misses a 2x multiplier as well.

Napoleon said Allegiant was the new Fury Road

but how does one think that

[That One Girl]

Well on the bright side it only needs 70M for me to not lose points in the summer game.
