If it follows Homecoming:

 

36.3M (3.3x previews)

26.5M (-27%)

20.9M (-21%)

83.7M Weekend

 

This is basically what I'm seeing at my theater. Chances are it's not as frontloaded as SMH, which puts high 80s on the table and potentially 90M+ if it hits 13.

Should translate to about $90-100M for the weekend which is around what I expected.

How about compared to GotG 2 seeing as it's a sequel to well received movie?

I'm skeptical of the preview share of OD being under 33%: showtimes started at 6PM tonight, an hour earlier than other MCU films, and we're in July with the 4th on a Wednesday so a lot of adults will have taken today and tomorrow off as well.

Antman and wasp opening weekend going to be higher than Justice League. Lmao 🤣 🤣

33M (-9%)

91.1M Weekend

 

Given that was a May opener, the Saturday drop here is going to be worse.

What the hell is this bullshit, I'm going to the Thursday previews but there's already numbers for it? everything is weird and wrong

[WrathOfHan]

Another important factor to keep in mind: this has 6 PM previews, so the preview multi may be worse than SMH and GOTG2.

[RealLyre]

If it follows Wonder Woman it can go as high as $121M with 13M previews 

[Rebeccas]

This is very family friendly. My theater looked very kiddy, almost as much as Incredibles 2 Thursday.

Quite shockingly, I didn't get a trailer for a single Marvel movie tonight.

That seemed so weird.

Neither did we but their only options were Venom (not for kiddies) or Spider-verse (animated)? We got some weird ones though like Eighth Grade..

[Mumen Rider]

Tracking had it at $80m, it's about to open $20m above that.

 

Marvel continues to be underestimated.

Yes, but then the first Ant-Man also had an 8.9 multi (with 7pm previews) .

 

This won't reach that because 1) it's bigger 2) it's a sequel and 3) it's 4th of July week with many people taking off Thur & Friday. 

 

But there' s also no reason to think it would do less than SMH's 7.59 which also skewed to teenagers and was well SM which has more in built demand than AM

[kitik]

The trailers I got were:

 

-House With a Clock in its Walls

-The Meg

-AXL

-The Spy Who Dumped Me

-Creed 2

-Nutcracker

 

I think that was it. I don't think we got a 7th.

 

Animated Spider-Man would have been a totally legit trailer in front of this movie. A little surprised it wasn't there.
