Good God, Pirates looking at 21-22 2nd weekend opposed to 22.8 of APOC.

O/U APOC DOM still a valid question.

Leaning way more on the under side.

[miketheavenger]

GotG2 also dropped from first numbers. Looks like the hold was too good to be true. Hopefully it can at least reach 10m.

Pirates 5 2nd weekend under Pirates 5 OD?

[filmlover]

If Disney makes a Pirates 6 that takes another 5-6 years to come it'll probably be lucky to make $100M. Regardless of the overseas grosses, this is most likely the last we've heard of Captain Jack Sparrow.

Oh, that is nonsense for a dozen reasons.

 

They're not close to their potential. TDK was. That's it. 

Even with better reception BVS would probably make it close as before release it was only projected to make 150 ow and 380 domestic.

This was months before the film came out.

Mant were giving it the typical sequel increase while we Fanboys had expectations way too high.

The market has changed remember TDKR didn't make as much as tdk in domestic sales and it was only do to the overseas expansion that it made more overseas.

Speaking of this Nolan vs Jackson thing, come on there is no comparison. Jackson hasn't really proved himself after LOTR. He hasn't come up with anything of his own and his two non-LOTR jobs, KK kinda disappointed and Lovely Bones flopped hard.

 

Jackson gets a lifetime pass for LOTR, no other director has took up such a massive undertaking and pulled it off so well when it could've easily been a monumental disaster.  Dude could make 10 more Lovely Bones turds for all I care.

Its no longer the best, its tied for best

 

It was never the best. Batman Begins is great though. Wonder Woman is easily the best SUPERHERO origin film tho. 

[franfar]

RIP Baywatch. It's doing half of what I expected at this rate.

 

So many over predictions....

[Arlborn]

It keeps rising then, awesome, let's keep it this way.

 

Rise princess, rise.

 

[a2k]

Evening, nights and WC will give 40.

Everything is going according to the plan:

34-37.5=>38.5=>40 (4th update from Deadline) => 40.1 (WB being a dick and adding .1)

I doubt Nolan would ever make another CBM again. Why? What would be the creative challenge or driving interest for him?

 

Or he knows he won't be able to top TDKT without Heath Ledger's help.

Pirates 5 2nd weekend under Pirates 5 OD?

 

Surely...can't see how it does 23.5+ with just ~6 Friday.

 

Not even with a 60% Sat bump which June won't give anyway.

APOC and ALICE2 jumped 40-43% on Sat.

APOC fell 27% on Sat and ALICE2 fell 18%.

 

6 + 9 (+50%) + 7 (-22%) = 22 (-65%) is best I can see right now

Apoc had less competition this w/e and more the next with 3 openers doing a total of $86m - and it dropped 56.6%

interstellar was the beginning of Nolan's Shyamalan dive. we're in for about a decade of garbage before a rebirth at the house of Blum.

His second Blumhouse joint will involve a crooked politician and end at a cafe with Bruce speaking to a woman about Harvey Dent.

I meant as far a Superhero films.

Think about it if the TDKR came out in 2008 what would its domestic total adjust to?

Between TDKR and TDK there's a significant decrease in Domestic sales .
