So much better than the Amazing Shit-man staring Andrew Garfield. 

 

So proud of Sony for getting it right this time. Hail Amy Pascal. What a great producer.

Nah, all praise goes to the king, to Spider-Man's Lord and Savior: Kevin Feige. 

[aabattery]

Thor is going to have a real high OW because I am going to fly to America and buy 10 million tickets.

 

Also, it's really nice to have something (other than Wonder Woman) make big money. It's been too long since the last 100M opener.

Holy shit at that WW hold if that actually happens

Everything gets brutalized by superhero movies except... other superhero movies.

 

What a time to be alive.

What family movie makes only 42 m on Friday after 15 m in previews?

 

 

that's not how it works

 

 

this is still a franchise movie with a huge upfront fanbase thus will cause some frontloading in the previews

Spider-Man is an MCU movie first, it's accessible to families but it's not a family film by nature.

Nah, Amy Pascal was clearly involved in day to day producing. Ever since she left Sony, she's been producing full time. Kevin Feige has a whole studio to run and has multiple projects to take care off.  

 

Let's give female producers their due!

 

Of course the director, Jon Watts, deserves a lot of the credit.

I hope apes, dunkrik, and valerian do good with one breaking out otherwise this summer will be worse than 2014.

THR is also going with the phony $42M number.

 

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/spider-man-homecoming-box-office-friday-100-million-plus-debut-reboot-1019145

 

If their numbers hold, then it's fairly front loaded then.

Although I think it will do at least $47M OD, for about $125 OW.

[a2k]

10.5-11m for WONDY? 369-369.5 after the weekend ... would lock over GOTG2. Cause would be only 25-26 away from 395 after a 10.5-11 weekend and GOTG2 is looking at well below 395.

 

Just 30-31 away from 400, and holy shit ... 34-35 away from SM1 / Tele's Club

Alright, I'll gruntly give Pascal that.

 

BUT ALL HAIL KEVIN FUCKING FEIGE, THE FUCKING LEGEND. NOT A MAN, NOT A MYTH, A HOLLYWOOD GOD 

[John Marston]

I am glad the new Spider-Man is good but I am still thinking the spin offs about certain characters like Venom are a bad idea.

Not SMH 

 

This baby is going over $50M OD. 

 

And then when the Saturday numbers come in people will be shocked that the movie is playing like a family movie just like they were shocked when that happened with GOTG2. 

[a2k]

105 OW would be only 6.8x the previews.

Less than Civil War's 7.2x. Would be a surprise.

 

Even 7.2x gives 111 OW ... should at least do that.

Needs 44+ OD for that, opposed to 42.

Civil War came out in May, and SM:H is coming out in the middle of the summer where previews are much larger percentages of the OW.

 @baumer, my last week prediction will count for the contest? Please say yes. If it does, I'm winning this thing and it will be fucking legendary

I'm looking forward to The Papers and Molly's Game. She is building quite a portfolio with her production company.
