A great drop would give 38, and HT3 seems favored to come in above that.

Ant-Man OW: $57.22 million

Ant-Man 2 OW: $75.81 million

 

That's a nice increase. Ant-Man 2 is a pretty big success so far.

Thought of the night that might trigger people: Ant Man and The Wasp will be the third biggest movie in July/August (behind Robin and HT3).

I could see a Robin breakout, but I really don't think HT3 will beat it. The other two capped out at sub-150, and while this has Summer weekdays, I don't think it's enough to cross 200 (while Ant-Man 2 will more than likely cross that mark or at the very least beat the original's 190).

 

If anything, Fallout will be the one to beat it and push it down to 2nd/3rd, not HT3.

 

@AndyK It would be a turd if it was actually a flat out bad number and indicative of a flop. It's none of those things, it's just a pretty shocking disappointment. Movie's still gonna make O/U 200M DOM and like 3 or 4 times its budget WW.

The second one made $169m.

Oh, my bad. Well, I still don't think it does too much more than that. Especially when the OW is going be very much on par, at best a couple of millions higher. 180-190 type thing maybe due to the impact of Summer weekdays? And that seems fairly optimistic imo.

I would be very shocked if AM2 does not hit 200 million, but if it doesn't, then yeah...if they plan a third AM film, they better bring in Iron Man or someone like that...

I’m hoping it does well for Neve Campbell lol.

It's running at 83% of Rampage's presales on Fandango fwiw. That iceberg is veeeeeeeeeery close to the ship

It has already hit it. At this point it is slowly sinking into the Ocean.

Skyscraper will likely make decent coin overseas even if it severely underperforms here (which is looking likely at this point).

[MrGlass2]

Skyscraper's presales don't look good but it could be a family walkup movie... like AntMan2.

That was probably the plan. It's also co-produced by a chinese company.

[Alli]

Skyscraper is a dad walk up movie. I'm not worried. At least 35M OW

Not only the movie events being in Asia, but also looking at the last 2 Die Hards they were quite intl driven, the one in 2013:
