2019 $100M Films. Can it be a record year?

Recommended Posts

It's 2019! How many films do you think can reach $100M this year?

 

The record is 35 from 2013, followed by 33 from 2017 and 2014.

 

Maybe it'll be a record for $200M (13 - 2012, 2017, 2014, 2016), $300M (9 - 2016), $400M (4 - 2017, 2018) or $500M (3 - 2018) films?

Looks good.

I'd say the year can do the same as 2018, so 3 films above 500&600M and I kind of (unlikely I know) hope it can do 3 films above 700M.

About the 100M:

I'd say Men in Black and Once upon a time in hollywood can do it too.

Don't know about the others, maybe Cats... But even that would only be 29...

 

And I'd say the 400M record gets broken:

Avengers, TLK and IX above 700M (Sorry, I am optimistic)

Frozen 2 and Captain Marvel above it too and maybe TS4.

 

And above 300:

Avengers, TLK, IX, Frozen 2, Captain Marvel, TS4, Pika, SLOP2, Spider-Man, Joker, maybe Aladdin and Jumanji and It

Angry Birds 2 and JW3 are not as likely as MIB and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

 

We are headed for some extremely huge movies in 2019, but I can't see this record falling. I am rooting for 2019 being the first year over 12 billion DOM.

I am also rooting for $12 Billion, I was last year too, but we just missed it by like $130 million ish.

Little Women is definitely a $100M+ candidate. Has everything going for it on paper: starry cast, perfectly timed Christmas Day release, wide appeal (film fans will be interested in Gerwig’s follow-up to Lady Bird, it’s bound to be PG given the source material so it’ll have family appeal), etc.

Between January and February, solid guess is anywhere from 4 (The Upside, Glass, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part and How To Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World) to 5 movies (the aforementioned 4 and Alita: Battle Angel) over 100M DOM - Alita is still an incognito due to its 5-day opening.

 

Either way, even if we have 4 Jan/Feb 100M strikes, it will be above last year at the same point in time, which gave us no Jan movies past the mark and only 3 Feb movies (Black Panther, Peter Rabbit and Fifty Shades Freed). While with 5, it'd be tied with the 2018 number with March movies added (the three from Feb, A Wrinkle In Time and Ready Player One). It'd also be outpacing the record-holding year which is 2013: only 4 from Jan to March (Identity Thief, Oz The Great And Powerful, The Croods and GI Joe: Retaliation).

 

That is a good step in the right direction, despite the overall bombage/disappointment of the box office thus far. And that's just Jan and Feb alone. March this year doesn't look like the wasteland from last year, as Captain Marvel, Us and Dumbo are all strong contenders-to-locks for 100M, so 2019 could start really pacing ahead.

So (the second number in brackets is just a really, really bad guess; the first number is just which hundred million I think it will definitely gross, if that is a x, it means that I doubt it will be able to gross more than a hundred))

We have

Glass (100/112)

Upside (Surprise) (100/110)

 

And:

The Lego Movie 2 (100/105)

Alita (100/120)

HTTYD 3 (100/150)

 

And then:

March:

Captain Marvel (300/425)

Us (100/185)

Dumbo (100/175) (am I underestimating this)

 

April:

Shazam (100/165) (Probably underestimating this, but this honestly seems dead)

After (x/100, though I'd say about 50M for this one) (No one should estimate who ever watches these movies, FS1-3 grosse 166-100M)

Hellboy (x/100)

Endgame (500/700)

 

May:

Pikachu (200/350) 

John Wick (x/110)

Aladdin (100/195) (This should be at least a TJB / more like B&tB)

Godzilla (100/205)

Rocketman (x/100)

 

June:

SLOP (200/325)

Dark Phoenix (x/105)

MiB (100/150)

TS4 (200/375)

Yesterday (x/125)

 

July:

SM: FfH (300/320)

Conjuring (x/105)

TLK (400/750) 

Hollywood (100/180)

 

August:

Hobbs & Shaw (200/240)

New Mutants (x/110)

Artemis Fowl (x/100)

Angry Birds 2 (x/100)

 

September:

It 2 (200/270)

 

October:

Joker (200/250)

Maybe the Blumhouse horror?

 

November:

Terminator (x/115)

Doctor Sleep (x/100)

Last Christmas (100/100)

Kingsman (x/105)

Frozen 2 (400/500)

 

Dezember:

Jumanji (300/350)

SW IX (500/650)

Cats (100/165)

Little Women (x/125)

 

So (in brackets is current record)

100: 27 - 41 (35)

200: 14 (13)

300: 7 - 11 (9)

400: 4 - 5 (4)

500: 2 - 4 (3)

600: 0 - 3  (3)

700: 0 - 2 (1)

While the amount of $100M films is a lot more of a crapshoot, I think there's a good to great chance that most if not all of the other milestone records are broken.

 

The numbered films are ones that I think are more or less guaranteed, but I think at least a few of the good shot selections will come through to help all of these records:

 

200M (record: 13)
1. Captain Marvel
2. Shazam
3. Avengers: Endgame
4. Pokemon: Detective Pikachu
5. The Secret Life of Pets 2
6. Toy Story 4
7. Spider-Man: Homecoming
8. The Lion King
9. It: Chapter 2
10. Frozen 2
11. Star Wars: Episode IX
Good Shots: Us, Dumbo, Aladdin, Godzilla, MIBI, Hobbs & Shaw, Joker, Jumanji 3 (only cuz it might not make the schedule, otherwise guaranteed), plus those randoms surprise hits

 

300M (record: 9)
1. Captain Marvel
2. Avengers: Endgame
3. Pokemon: Detective Pikachu
4. Toy Story 4
5. Spider-Man: Homecoming
6. The Lion King
7. Frozen 2
8. Star Wars: Episode IX
Good Shots: Shazam, Aladdin (decent shot at best), SLOP 2, It 2, Joker, Jumanji 3, maybe one surprise

 

400M (record: 4)
1. Avengers: Endgame
2. The Lion King
3. Frozen 2
4. Star Wars: Episode IX
Good Shots: Captain Marvel, Pikachu, Toy Story 4

 

500M (record: 3)
1. Avengers: Endgame
2. The Lion King
3. Star Wars: Episode IX
Good Shots: Pikachu, Frozen 2

 

600M (record: 3)

1. Avengers: Endgame

2. The Lion King

Good Shots: Pikachu, Frozen 2, Star Wars 9

 

700M (record: 1) (this will definitely be the hardest one)

Decent Shots: Endgame, Lion King
