This makes me wonder if X-Force will be pg-13. 

Will they even make an X-Force movie now

Chewy was right.  Infinity War has yet to get past a 2.1x.

 

Don't show me the #'s I refuse to believe it

Solo's international numbers are going to be way more fun to follow than the domestic ones.

Opening week: 338,332,540

 

Domestic: 605,194,638

 

Multi: 1.79x

DP2

Fri: 12M

Sat: 17.4M (+45%)

Sun: 15.7M (-10%)

Mon: 12.6M (-20%)

 

Weeekend: 3-day 45.1M (-64%)/4-day 57.7M (-54%)

 

11-day total is around $223M. 

 

Still on track for 300M+ IMO. Should add around 2x the 3-day Memorial weekend for 315M total (a solid 2.5x leg)

Deadpool 2 is doing well for a comedy sequel. It's lucky that it's not going to drop 35% from it's predecessor. It's a huge hit that cost less than half of what Solo cost to make. Infinity War is a smash hit, whocares what it's going to drop this weekend. No matter how hard anyone tries they can't not make IW's amazing numbers disappointing. 700mil was NEVER the threshold for success. Solo's numbers are bad. 

BP vs IW is basically like TA vs TDKR. Tons of posters on here just assumed whatever the underdog movies(BP and TA) did, the favorites would just do more. Sorry but that's not how box office works

It would most likely need to add another $80M+ after MDW to get there and Im really not sure where its getting that from

Will it even reach $250M? this weekend's drop is horrible

Solo 1st two days be around 2.5,  DP2 Fri will be about 88% of Solo Fri (Aus DP2 was higher on Fri, NZ Fri two very close)

As long as Infinity War is making money, theaters will be eager to hold on to it. Especially when next week's openers aren't looking to be much of a threat, or getting very high theater counts (Adrift will make the biggest dent and even that likely isn't doing higher than low-teens at best).

 

Not as much as you would think for theaters that aren't 15+ screen mega plexes.  It is also an expensive film at 65%

 

Next week it will be fine but on 6/8 there are many, many theaters that will want to dump it for more screens of Incredibles 2 and to make room for the many new releases coming up after that.

Lack of summer weekdays and then Deadpool prevented IW from reaching 700m. Wish they had moved Ant Man to fall and IW to July

Pretty sure the general consensus around here after BP’s opening and legs was that IW beating it would be a challenge.

Yikes at Solo. what a rollercoaster.  Deadpool with a harsh drop too. Will everything disappoint this summer?

It'll reach $250M. It would need just $30M to get there. The question is whether it can leg it out to $300M and I personally don't think it can. It'll probably get to $280-$290M on the high end 

[MovieMan89]

Considering I see no feasible way for IW to get to 700 after this Friday number, all I care about now is that it beats Titanic.

Deadpool 2 will be at something like $215 after Monday and at $245m by 6/4, so it will easily hit $250m

It's been the same 4 or 5 people whipping themselves into a frenzy of negativity literally all day, making up ridiculous "projections" and proclaiming endless doom.

 

The actual estimates don't seem that bad, and now they're all buh buh buh buh...

 

It's been as entertaining as forums get.

“That bad”

 

the denial is real...

You mean like last year when some Spider-Man fans thought that Wonder Woman doing 400mil meant that Spider-Man could do more? Yeah, that's a thing that always happens.

I like you Nova, but fuck man you might have the least confidence of anyone on here.
