Agree it was a good drop but not quite Avatar anti gravity which is why this will fall short of it DOM. It will be almost a billion away from from Avatar WW without china but thanks to china it could beat titanic WW. Which is a shame because Avatar held the highest grossing record in China for 4 years even despite how much smaller the market was in china in 2009. It's fair to assume Avatar would have grossed atleast 700m in china now but it only made 200m. 3.2b btw Rare for you to underestimate things Even Wolf Warrior 2 can do $870M in China, and Avatar felt significantly bigger than that. Anyway, I'm mentally preparing myself for Titanic WW being surpassed, I kind of dread it, but also happy for IW if it does surpass Titanic. Doesn't change the fact that Titanic has probably the most impressive worldwide box office run ever. Like for every record in box office, inflation and market expansion eventually catches up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to run like TA until films actually start being released then it slow down. Problem is most of its gross is made by then, im still expecting around 700m Deadpool 2 opens at the end of IW’s 3rd week. TA had a 1st:3rd week multi of 476.7/270.0=1.765 This Thurs figure puts IW’s first week at 338.5, so we’d have about 338.5*1.765=597.6 before the big competition shows up. From there it would need to make 163M to catch Avatar, or about 27.25% of its day-21 total. Thor:Ragnarok failed to do so with *very* heavy competition (21%). Spider- Man was about 26%. GotG2 24.4%. Strange 21%. Civil War 14%. Ultron 20%. So, with this model of the run Avatar does look quite safe, though passing BP looks pretty good still. I think the ~600 end of 3rd week, ~730 final numbers from this kind of run look about right for now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the staggered affect of DP2 then SOLO is going to hurt IW's post 600m prospects. Overall im expecting 710m (+-20).

justvision Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 A:IW has been running much like TA, not AoU nor CA:CW, nor BP, nor other solo Marvel movies, nor SW movies and others. TA total domestic gross adjusted was $704M. I think A:IW will do 5-10% above this adjusted figure, so 740M to 775M final gross. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I liked all these amazing run from IW, I don't like if Titanic surpassed by IW. Only 3 films from 90s stay in all time top 50. I need that representation in all time chart! And,Titanic is an all time epic classic that should stay as top as it can be!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Again that isn’t bad, or good. Just standard and expected. I don’t think it’s locked for $130m this weekend. I think it’ll be closer to $120m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the movie works much better with the framing device cause throughout the movie you're dangled with some hope that they did both survive and that lady is actually their granddaughter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
