The way things are shaping up for TLJ, it certainly seems that BATB will remain highest grossing movie of the year from the looks of things...Unless TLJ pools out some kind of magic trick and will be able to gross over 600m domestically, because it clears as a day to me that international market is ridiculously weak for this movie for some odd reason! Congratulations BATB for highest grosser of 2017!...

Hahahahaha are you joking?! This race was over before it even began. TLJ is a lock for over $600M and #1 domestic. It also opened extremely well worldwide so it’ll be on cruise control to both #1 worldwide and domestic with ease. I can’t tell if you’re trolling or new to the box office?

Given that Wan has given WB a billion dollar franchise with The Conjuring, I suspect he's been given full reign on Aquaman. I really want to see how they envision Atlantis and also how Black Manta and Ocean Master look like in live action

The Conjuring isn't a billion dollars technically but yes. I'm sure he'll have complete creative control.

monday's drop could be harsher than RO since TLJ's opening monday is further from x-mas holiday than RO and TFA, -56% drop will give $22.5m

Are you kidding me? The Last Jedi is going to eat 600M for breakfast.

Schools are still in this week here in Toronto, but they are off the full week of January the 1st.  So I think the grosses will be a lighter during the week this time, for the first week.

Oh, I thought it was some sort of odd advert technique for The Voice Portugal on RTP   (I mean, it has The Voice's judges on it, after all...)

I still remember last year they did an entire dedicated The Voice emission to promote the damn movie.
