Yep Marvel was playing hard ball with everyone and only RDJ had real power and that was something Marvel (seems like Ike) hated. Notice how all the monetary issues for talent haven't happen since Feige took complete control of Marvel Studios. 

Quote

The issue going forward is how many of the Avengers stars and starlets are still bound by early agreements and longterm options which Marvel can continue to exploit individually. To counter, I’ve learned the Avengers cast are becoming united behind Robert Downey Jr who is seen as the “leader” – like “a big brother” in the words of one rep – for all the younger actors in the ensemble. “He’s the only guy with real power in this situation. and balls of steel, too. He’s already sent a message that he’s not going to work for a place where they treat his colleagues like shit,” one source explains.

Google trending has Saturday actually peaking a good 20-30% higher than Friday which is interesting...don't see that much.  Usually it's higher than Friday up to 7pm for obvious reasons but peaks lower or at best the same level.  Dunno what that means...because the correlation with box office numbers has been anything but obvious, but no surprise I'm gonna guess a stupid high number...48-50m?

Just a little more and its in range of my stupid high prediction

Ugh. Marvel sounds like the Walmart of the film industry.

Anyone know how much they’re paying Chadwick?

They already have several of those (Wonder Woman, The Dark Knight, Batman 89, Superman The Movie, Batman Begins)...

Yep, RDJ is the man. he's famously generous and it's just great that he cares for his castmates so much. 

[The Futurist]

Don't fool yourselves people.

ANY studio movie is a Walmart product.

They are designed for the masses, for mass consumption.

The moment you spend 150m+, you are obviously trying to reach mothe than the Cinephile Societies and Circles of the coastal elites who like nothing more to show how sophisticated they are when it comes to art.

I would be very disappointed if it only increases 40%. This needs to increase 50%. I want 55%

Your Highness, my apologies for going so low. +66% increase is absolutely mind-blogging. That is -27.6% drop from last Saturday.

 

Since you keep getting historical numbers, let's project a "reasonable" -25.9% drop for your Sunday number.

 

FRIDAY: $28,800,00

SATURDAY: $47,800,000 (+66.0%)

SUNDAY: $35,419,800 (-25.9%)

 

SECOND WEEKEND: $112,019,800

 

The second best second weekend of all time, Your Highness.

 

[Zakiyyah6]

BP has better word of mouth than Deadpool, don't get why it would go up less on Saturday. Kinda figure that a 55% increase was the floor.

[Dandeak2000]

February Calendar Gross is at $808M as of 23/02 ($10M from the record 2012's $818.2M)

 

Add $47.8M from BP, $7M from GN and $4.2M from Annihilation

 

And we are at $867M from 3 numbers on Saturday. Still have the rest of Saturday until Wednesday to go. Likely going to pass $1B for a quarter of $1.964B+ so far.

that sunday drop is too low.

This could have a 54-46% dom-os split with 650-550 (1.2b ww). Unique for a CBM. Wondy was nearly 50-50 with 50.2-49.85 dom-os.
