Ive never understood that. Any other movie would kill for these numbers. I mean 1,4 BILLION Worldwide! Gigantic.

And no other CBM in the past 2 years has sniffed either of those grosses.

Yes, I just edited my post.

 

Age of Ultron did great it was always in for a big drop and it being received much worse than the first one didn't help. But it was always going to lose 100 + million from the last one. Even if it had the same reviews as the first one it's still wouldn't have matched it.

It's called "any sequel which doesn't increase must be a disappointment" syndrome.

Looks like 600m for Apes is gone

I'd say it still applies. It's definitely intensifying the drops.

Yeah. I was confused not offended.

Still exchange rates have more of an effect on 3+ year sequels. Not to mention Homecoming will likely finish above ASM2 and ASM1 OS despite the fallen rates. Guardians 2 did not have caught on like we have expected it too. But it's better than IM2, and had a solid jump for a sequel both domestically, overseas and worldwide.

Why America? Why you did this to me? We received The Godfather of our generation, one of the greatest trilogies of all time, and you guys choose to ignore it, karma is a bitch, you guys will never receive any quality franchise anymore.

I am sure everyone at Marvel is crying because Guardians alone did 15M less DOM than almost all of their other heroes combined into one movie.

Overdramatic much

this pointless CBM bickering

As WW keeps impressing and Surprising everyone...JL seems like a bigger hit as well.The world has fell head over heels with the character and it should pull more family audiences and females than your typical Comic Book Movie.I mean i imagine  women,and little girls in particular,craving for WW's next adventure.

 

That being said,lack of Steve Trevor should not help repeat viewings,which is something female audoences tend to do.

Wimbledon turning out like the fight for #1 weekend spot between Apes and Homecoming. Few thought an upset was incoming, but one sided in the end.

 

ON a side note: I never thought he would win another one let alone two after a few years drought - thought he was done.

With JL promo starts coming out, WW late legs could be better than usual.

Sub-20% drop coming?

[scabab]

Man these boards went severely downhill from the old Box Office Mojo days didn't they? 

 

Mostly just a bunch of fools posting gifs rather than anything of value.

Looks like WAR is showing big drops from DAWN

14.8 vs 9.5 in UK

9.8 vs 5 in Russia

4.6 vs 3.4 in Spain

 

DAWN did 500+ OS. Wonder if WAR is looking at 350-375. Add to that 150-155 dom, you get 500-530 WW.

 

When looking at global figures compared to DAWN, keep in mind the dollar was at very different place in 2014 (Dawn) than 2017 in European exchange rates.  The British pound and Russian ruble both declined substantially (Brexit, oil prices).  Dollar is up 25% against euro since 2014.

 

So the decline is probably not as dramatic if you take out currency effects.
