Not sure nostalgic is the best term for it, but I catch your drift.

 

I think the best term here would be: "old school" 

[Jayhawk the Hutt]

Wow, pretty greaf #s for everything not TF5.

[filmlover]

Great hold for Baby Driver.

 

The Big Sick is looking at another $10K+ PTA despite more than quadrupling its theater count. This is definitely becoming one of the bigger success stories of the summer.

 

Kinda a weak start for A Ghost Story but it never seemed like something that would find much of an audience in theaters anyway.

[MCKillswitch123]

So...

 

Spider-Man is pushing to a 50M+ OD and a 120M+ OW, and potential solid to good legs (especially for a 6th entry in a single franchise and 3rd reboot that follows three mixed to garbage films).

 

Baby Driver has a good hold and is tracking very much slightly ahead of Don't Breathe, and with a less restricted audience and a barren August to look forward to, it could actually reach 100M.

 

Franchises that no one cares about anymore, like Transformers and Cars, are dead in the water, and DM3 is vastly underperforming on the wake of the terrible Minions and less than stellar wom on its own (proving that even kids need some assurance of quality after all).

 

The Big Sick is giving Sundance and Amazon a good box office name during the Summer (proving that Manchester By The Sea wasn't a one-off smash for them).

 

Wonder Woman is STILL holding like a motherfucking queen.

 

The top 3 films of the Summer are all gonna be superhero films (GOTG V2, WW, SMH) and they're all gonna finish not too distant from each other.

 

And July is looking like the most lit month since March, w/Apes, Dunkirk, Valerian and Atomic Blonde all having good to great wom, and some potential for Girls Trip too. Meanwhile, August has some tricks up its sleeve too, between Annabelle, Detroit and Hitman's Bodyguard which all should be at least modest critical and commercial hits too.

With $50m OD SMH matches the 65% of Spiderman 3 opening day adjusted

[Mr Impossible]

If there is an Aunt May movie, Joe Pesci gotta come back and play her boyfriend for a My Cousin Vinny reunion.

Spider-man got to $50M for its OD:

Sony has rebounded with Baby Driver and Spider-Man but I think both Emoji and The Dark Tower will underperform 

[Mr Impossible]

So what are WW chances of crossing $400M DOM and $800M WW?

Dark Tower will but not Emoji. It'll make $$$ just like Angry Birds. 

[JohnnyGossamer]

With $50M+ OD, a $125M+ OW seems likely for Spidey. If summer days treat him well, this flick could be in for a monster run.

$800M+ WW is locked up... Probably do $900M+ WW. $400M DOM... We'll have a good idea if that's happening after the weekdays and especially after we see the actuals come in next Monday after his 2nd weekend.

YOOOOOOOO BABY DRIVER, GO STEAL THAT MONEY

That DM3 hold isn't as bad as I thought it'd be, but it's also not that good of a hold

Cars finally had a not-shit hold. This is going to be like POTC now  

THE BIG SICK IS SHOWING THAT BIG DICK

Transformers  

Popcorn Law is kicking in on The Beguiled  

Weak start for A Ghost Story

You predicting it to surprise in Japan? I don't see $900M for Wonder Woman sadly. Nice to see $800M is locked up. 

[nomyth]

WW falls 30% against SMH????

 

This is the moment all WW fans have been waiting for. 400M is officially more likely to happen than not.

And a Derby Champion said that, so you can take it to the bank.

[grey ghost]

BOM should do WW vs SMH.

 

The race for the summer crown begins.

Shaking My Head isn't reaching Wonder Woman's total.
