I'm predicting 500M for Incredibles 2 and don't think it can go below 350M. Bite me.

Either way, June 2018 is going to be bonkers.

But, June of 2017 was already Bong'kers, no?

In te last days that I started supporting Illumination I received messages from people thanking me and telling me that they had to stop coming here due to the hate Illumination is receiving.

It is fine not liking Illumination but there is no need to repetitively being negative about you.

We know your opinion, we have heard it a thousand times. It is sad that people have to stop visiting this site because they cannot bare the amount of negativity something they like is receiving.

After all Illumination movies are the most harmless thing you could possibly find.

I personally am not an Illumintion fan. I like their movies but nothing more.

This is really not about me!

 

I just feel that mods should take care that this is not happening not only with Illumination but any other franchise/brand as well.

In my opinion, Incredibles 2 is outgrossing everything in the summer other than JW2 and maybe IW.

Deadpool 2 is definitely decreasing from 1. I think we all agree on that. Bumblebee will do $100M at most. O8 will likely be the biggest comedy of 2018. Incredibles 2 will breakout and do $400M+ due to lack of big animated/family films and nostalgia. JW2 will dominate.

Shrug

 

I disagree. 

 

I think with summer legs, it can get to $370M. Thats my "bold" prediction for next year. I am going all loonie with Deadpool 2 and I don't care. 

 

I think Incredibles 2 is being way over predicted. I see $500M and up from a lot of folks....as if $500M is an easy target. As big as BATB was, it barely scraped by that number and BATB had WAAAAAAAY more hype leading up to it.

So, then you've definitely got it under $400M:)...

[Zakiyyah6]

I do think that people are insane if they believe that Incredibles 2 is doing Finding Dory numbers when Finding Nemo was like the most beloved Pixar movie. And even though I have a 420mil in my range I don't think it's going to reach that high. As a matter of fact I regretted writing the 420mil after I did.

 

I think that people should be prepared for that movie to do nowhere near the numbers they're predicting. Do I think it's going to do over 300? Sure I do. Do I think it's guaranteed 400? Hell no. 400 million will be a stretch.

[MovieMan89]

To me The Incredibles is very much akin to Monsters Inc. Both big hits in their day, but neither were ever near the juggernauts of TS/Nemo with the enduring generational appeal of those. Incredibles 2 should certainly be a better movie than Monsters University and definitely has more demand than that ever did, so again I can see 350. 500 is insane though, imo.

So WW has not had a single weekend-to-weekend drop that goes above 45 %...

Fantastic.

[ZeeSoh]

I lowered my prediction in the DM3 gold account thread from 84 to 80 but even that was not enough. 

 

If that 75m number holds it would need a 4x multi to reach 300. I think we can safely say this is not reaching 300. Even 250 seems like a tough task. 

 

Expected weekend drrop for WW

Monsters Inc never had generational appeal? 

 

[Brainbug]

I mean its unrealistic but ide love to see a 350M Deadpool 2, 400M+ Incredibles and 500M+ JW2 next summer. I just like big numbers. And now its all just speculation/whisful thinking anyway because we do not have any actual trailers for these movies.

[DAR]

Of all of Pixar's films the Incredibles did have the biggest appeal to adults.

Deadpool 2 has way more competition with its main target demo having numerous options. It opens the week after Han Solo, Bumblebee takes its PLFs and IMAX, Incredibles 2 may take some teens and families (although the latter may be something like 10%-15% of its audience), and then JW2 trucks it. 

 

I am not thinking $500M for Incredibles 2 is guaranteed. I'm thinking the range is $400M-$450M domestic. It has the major benefit of a very weak family market.

This times one thousand. Another great point by DAR when I get likes I am liking this post.

Certainly not on the level of TS/Nemo. I mean 270m for MU vs 415/485m for TS3/Dory pretty much says it all.
