The absolute worst. One of the theaters around me only staffs one person at the box office most of the time, and it's a fucking nightmare (especially because there's no online ticketing whatsoever).

I don't understand sorry. You posted a chart that said Black Panther had previews as a smaller % of its OW than civil war and avengers. But that's just speculation because we don't have any numbers.

It's not speculation, it is actual, numerical data from real presales that show that on the OW, it has sold more on Saturday and Sunday than CW and AoU.  This is already a clear sign of not being as front loaded.  

 

But sure, let's wait and see what happens.  I can admit when I'm wrong, can you?

Black Panther 4-day OW > Justice League total domestic (228m) possible?

It is possible..... that will teach DC to have a more "Diverse" cast moving forward.

 

The future is DIVERSITY, get on the train

I wonder if BP2 will be 2021 or will Marvel fast track it for November 6th 2020? I suspect it'll be May 1st 2021.

 

I hope it's 2021 because then Coogler will definitely have time to shoot his Atlanta test scores movie - or something else, whatever he wants - before returning to the Marvel system.

 

Same reason I want a Valkyrie/Hulk spinoff (or Thor 4) from Waititi for 2020.

My friend and his wife have started a complete MCU rewatch leading up to Infinity War.

 

Well, almost. 

 

His wife said, "Oh, we're not watching Incredible Hulk."

Incredible Hulk doesn’t exist

We can all agree that Thor 2 and Incredible Hulk are the worst MCU movies, right? Most people often tend to forget the existence of the latter (for understandable reasons).

Thor 2 sure. I didn't mind TIH back in 2008. Based on memories I'd probably put it above Ultron and Civil War too because at least it's not 4 hours long. I also enjoyed it more then than I did the first Thor and Ant-Man years later.

FYI - Not to rain too much on this movie, but Mid-Atlantic metro is looking at snow/ice for Saturday night...could put a little damper on the weekend multiplier...

you missed the word opening in the post. Avatar opened to 77m

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if Kennedy poaches both Coogler and Waititi from Marvel. She's already expressed interest in the latter, and Black Panther at points feels like a REALLY GOOD audition reel for Star Wars.

Only to fire them halfway through filming.

i like them both too much for that.

Local theater is a madhouse. Have a friend who works concessions, they had to call in quite a few people to come in and work.

I think Coogler would make a great Bond flick.

Makes me interested to see what Marvel does next. I'm looking forward to all their films, and even some of DC's (never thought I'd see an Aquaman film). It's a great time to be a comic book fan, that's for sure.

I'm curious as well, BP2 is a cert as is GOTG3 and Doctor Strange 2, it's the originals I'm wondering what it'll be. My guess is Fantastic Four in 2021 or 2022, Namor and something else, it's difficult to guess because they've used most of the ones I can think of.

There's only so many Star Wars movies they can have in development at one point in time. This isn't like DC where they throw 50 different movie projects out there and we only end up getting 2 or 3 of them.

 

I don't think Lucasfilm will ever want to move to a 3-Star-Wars-movies-per-year schedule.
