Cinderalla reached the milestone fairly easily. Went 1.1 above 200. Dollar bump and a bump of 5 theaters is not fudgeing. The 5 theaters bumps seems inconsequential:

Most certainly they're referring to that May 1-3 weekend. Considering it dropped less than 1% against Ultron...

ultron was distributed by disney, cinderella was receiving double-feature "treatment" that week, which boost its sales.

 

The tactic is very common now.....

WB aren't rushing another DC movie because that could easily turn into another horribly reviewed mess. And as much as hardcore DCEU fanboys pretend they don't WB does care about the receptions of the DC movies. They know they have to do better now, it's just going to be Aquaman in 2018.

 

They've got RPO in March, FB2 in November and Aquaman in December as their main tentpoles next year and a slew of mid range or slightly higher budget stuff like Tomb Raider and Ocean's 8 so I reckon they can afford to only have 1 DC film next year since they'll have 3 in 2019,

2019 could be a big year for WB with Batman, the 2 other DCEU Films, Lego Movie 2, Minecraft, and Godzilla 2 and a bunch of other potential hits.

Am I an optimist who sees a property I love ready for a big resurgence or a stan ignoring data and trends?

Excited to find out.

Indeed it is, Alice 2 had the same thing being paired up with Dory last year. By far the most noticeable effects are with Disney productions. Though so far this summer, there appears to be a slight shift away from "exclusive" pairings. It'll be interesting to see what happens this week with Spider-Man

People are carried away by SMH legs predictions, what happend with Wonder Woman is extraordinary

A long time will pass till we see another superhero getting a x3+ multiplier.

A bit random but I was browsing the-numbers.com and stumbled upon this

 

Record	No 1. Movie	Amount
Top Live Action Domestic	Titanic	$658,672,302
Top Animation/Live Action Domestic	Star Wars Ep. VII: The Force Awakens	$936,662,225

 

 

If you go into the "Top Live Action Domestic" category, you'll find Jurassic World at #2

 

How the hell is Jurassic World a live action movie and TFA, The Avengers, and Rogue One aren't?!  

 

I mean, if too much CGI was a factor, Jurassic World certainly doesn't qualify anymore than they do.

 

edit: In fact, lots of their records are just randomly retarded. Their #1 all-time R-rated worldwide grosser is... The Hobbit: Battle of the Five Armies. I guess they forgot that only the extended home-edition release is R-rated while the theatrical was PG-13

I'm not sure on Minecraft, it's seems like a odd one to adapt into a film.

[Zakiyyah6]

The only stanning I see are people who think a blockbuster getting a 3.0 multiplier is easy just because Wonder Woman did it. Not saying it's impossible for Spidey to get one again but as I've stated before, I won't be the one predicting that. Very few would be predicting a 3.0+ multiplier for Spidey if Wonder Woman hadn't been so leggy.

I don't think Gotham City Sirens will release next year, isn't Margot Robbie pregnant?

 

 

No. In fact, she's getting in shape.

to be fair, all those raptors were played by human being.....

It's gonna be interesting to find out whether WW will be able to achieve the biggest multiplier after opening with more than $100M (TFA's 3,777)

It only needs to get to 390m to have a better multiplier, so, yes, it's going to do that.

390.0 will do it. And it did in summer opposed to december which is amazing.

Of course to sw7's credit, it did so with a ~250 ow.  So 3.777 for it is astounding legs december or not.

It behaved like a summer film in some ways. Gonna be exciting to follow sw8's run.

Take away Weds/Thurs and Skrek 2 still has 3.89x

[a2k]

Shrek 2's run surprised me cause I didn't find it a great film but found Shrek 1 to be path-breaking for it's time. Goodwill spilled over big time. 

imo Shrek 1 was A/A+ and Shrek 2 was B/B+. Shrek 3 was C/C+ and it's bo is not at all surprising. Solid 320+ but a huge fall from Shrek 2 and horrid legs for an animation (2.6x+).

 

Shrek 4 salvaged legs wise and did 3.37x (71 ow / 239 dom) ... was fairly easily targeting 250 but Toy Story 3 crashed it.

I have no doubt that Shrek 5 will be profitable, but surely they are looking at it birthing a sequel or two and hopefully is a good film. 

B/B+ like Shrek 2 will do.

Aquaman has a shot if it keeps its date and  Han Solo doesn't move.

 

Animated Spidey could, if it happens.  Incredibles 2 likely will.

the-numbers.com just got started but looks like we will get tuesday estimates. still early morning est so maybe studios could release estimates in a couple of hours.
