BLACK PANTHER WEEKEND THREAD | Current Estimates - 202.4M 3-day / 242.6M 4-day | Record 40.167 Monday; more than TFA!

[seduh]

Boxoffice.com just posted that the actual figure for Monday is $40,2 breaking the monday record. Total is $241,9 so the OW was $201,7. I can't believe that Black Panther breaks Star Wars record. One of the most impresive achievements in recent years.

People like you said same when I said this would do 200+ on OW and 600+ total domestic.

Fandango Ticket Sales Rep More Than 30% Of ‘Black Panther’s $242M Record Opening Weekend

 

Within the first 24 hours of Black Panther tickets going on sale on Jan. 9 –well before the pic hit tracking– Fandango observed that the Disney/Marvel release was beating the advance ticket purchases of summer hit Captain America: Civil War at the same point in time ($179.1M opening). At the time, box office analysts were cautious to comp T’Challa that high. They couldn’t believe it. Initial tracking four weeks prior to the pic’s release indicated $120M-plus, and week after week, Black Panther exploded from there.

 

 

Fools. 

The signs, the signs were there!

This is going to pass Avatar and has a shot at TFA. Just wait and watch.

 

TFA is about to flex a ton of muscle from this Tuesday all the way through the 3rd Sunday. TFA's Wednesday gross could be $20m ahead of Black Panther's Wednesday just for some perspective. That's with Black Panther at $18m, which is already $4.4m above Avengers' first Wednesday.

True. Being released during the holidays makes that a given.

lol....please. Star wars is a dwindling franchise...TFA to TLJ..the drop is just hilarious. Also, let me remind you how badly star wars does in 2 biggest countries of the world. Treated like a Z rate franchise.

We'll see when Solo and IX come out lol. SW has never had the amount of output that Marvel has had these last 10 years.

“Black Panther has taken on a life of its own at movie theatres, playing to huge, broad audiences in  AMC markets around the country, and is growing from a blockbuster into a movement nationwide,” added Elizabeth Frank, AMC EVP, Worldwide Programming and Chief Content Officer, “We’re delighted with the stories and pictures of fans who are enjoying the magic of the movie theatre and turning the experience into a community event.”

Was Marvel a "dwindling franchise" after AGE OF ULTRON? Exactly. I know you're high on Black Panther's success at the moment but let's refrain from statements like this, shall we?

TLJ was a misstep maybe. But so where the prequels to a lot of people. But people will still show up to see the movies regardless. Even if it dropped off TLJ still grossed over 600m in the US alone.
