Wait a minute. I just saw the Friday's for Instant Family and Widows. I want to know how the hell Deadline is getting $12.5M and $13.3M with those Friday numbers. Especially since their preview to Friday is not front loaded at all 

IKR? IF should jump considerably on Saturday.

Sweetie I’m the biggest self proclaimed  Harry Potter fan in the world. It’s just sad to see something you love get destroyed. Either do it right or leave it alone.

Edit - Beaten to the punch:)...

 

But, to look at the numbers...

 

$27.5M Fri is $20.2M true Friday/$7.3M Thurs

$25.25M Sat (+25%)

$15.15M Sun (-40%)

 

Gets me to $67.9M + $1.8M Tuesday for $69.7M...so that must be the Deadline Math:)...

sounds about right. not bad, not bad at all after all the gloom

Will Pokemon be the next victim?

Getting destroyed is a definite matter of opinion though. For example, I would say that SM3 even adds to the trilogy rather than 'ruins' it in a way

Black Panther spoiled that surprise imo and it is getting harder and harder to get surprised by a Marvel movie doing well, same goes for horror entry with an high concept that fit into a short sentence / 30 seconds ads doing well.

Agree. That's why IW was more surprising than venom, even if little. Last out of blue surprise  for me still remains american sniper and dangal in china.

"Let’s hope the momentum builds."

 

With the bad word of mouth FB2 is getting, Deadline is basically hoping for a miracle.

[DAR]

A little late to the SM talk.  But I'm also in the camp that SM3 is pretty good.   

 

[Blaze Heatnix]

42% on RT now. Wow, it has 184 reviews on RT now. The previous movie had more than 300. That doesn't bode well for the tomatometer. It might drop even more.

I think this could do way more. I;m thinking of making an OVER 200M club.  It's the return of Leo; plus Pitt.

Nope.

[Zakiyyah6]

The film doesn't even need to hit 750mil dom to be a hit. I'm thinking 300mil right now.

Hot take.

 

Only good Spider-Man movie is Spider-Man 2.

Those multipliers Deadline is predicting for Widows and Instant Family sure are funny.

Deadline could never do the math. They had various people write for boxoffice column and each and every of them couldn't do the math. I guess that's requirement for the position.
