Glad to see Dead Man's Chest there. It was an epic run, beating SM's ow record and then #6 all-time on dom charts (the place currently held by TLJ and in some time by TA).

 

It was the only Disney movie in top 10.

Dead Man's Chest came out about a week after I discovered BOM. Added a ton of fuel to the fire that was my fascination with box office. 

[La Binoche]

Didnt she say she hates fans coming up to her in public? Soon she wont have to deal with that problem.

Proof that DMC is the best PotC movie.

[Mojoguy]

I can't believe how badly Disney fucked up the Pirates franchise.

Should have made Pirates 2 and 3 as standalone movies instead of rushing out the sequels just to make the first three movies into a forced trilogy.

Disney didn’t fuck up Pirates until the 4th movie.  And tbh I don’t really mind it.  But that last one was rough 

[Avatree]

Disney fucked up when they made pirates in the first place. Should have left it as a fairground ride.

Especially when Superman Returns got murdered by it. RIP.

If Wrinkle's Sunday drop is anything like my theatre's drop from Saturday, it'll come in at around 8.92M for actuals.

I still liked a few years later being informed that Dragonball Evolution was going to be a Titanic level hit

[Dementeleus]

Speaking of movies that were supposed to be giant hits, I’m currently watching GOOSEBUMPS. 

[MrPink]

Also, I'm pretty sure I started lurking around DMC. It wasn't until....Prince of Persia that I started posting at all

The top 10 is completely dominated by sci fi and superheroes.

 

Except for one fantasy and computer animation movie (ROTK is getting knocked out).

I liked that movie...my reader kids loved that movie...now, you're gonna tell me you hated it, but it's all good (it's probably "my speed" for scary:)...
