AQUAMAN WW-China crosses 800. Is at 1091-290.6 = 800.4 according to the estimates.

18.5 more Dom after 7.35 weekend for 335 total and 15 more OS-China after ~7.5 weekend (cause is 7.8 including China) gives,

800.4 + 18.5 + 15 = 834 WW-China with Japan to come.

So 850+ WW-China is on cards.

In a perfect world, we would have a new Aquaman movie every two year  for Christmas time.

Well it is about one of best bands and arguably the best singer in history. I am bit surprised as well but not shocked.

How much did it depend on Rami Malek's performance too? I feel like the movie would have done a lot worse if the person who portrayed Mercury did was worse.

 

Also, the movie released in Russia? I thought Russia hated gay people.

Beauty and the Beast had no gay sex either but it got an adults rating in Russia. I guess the same thing happened with Bohemian Rhapsody.

Beauty got 16+, BR 18+. Movies with LGBT subject matter tend to pass through without controversy as long as they aren't HARMING OUR CHILDREN OHMYGOD. Then again knowing there will probably be controversy almost certainly discourages distributors from putting some movies out, i.e. Love Simon and Call Me by Your Name were sorta just quietly never released. On the other hand Moonlight and Imitation Game had no problems. The Danish Girl neither. Movies about lesbians never have problems, that double standard where two ladies = hot but two guys = ewww is extremely present here. Country lives in fear of closeness of dicks.

I spoke too soon, as usual. Glass did better than I thought it would after that friday number. It's good for my derby because I predicted 18.5mil. The Upside is doing great. It looks like a cute movie. 

 

The openers were garbage. No matter how Fox marketed I just don't think that King would gave been some mega hit. Joe Cornish needs to do a comic book movie or a big film that's more marketable soon. 

 

Aquaman and Spidey have great drops. And Aquaman has done around 800mil without China so all of those lying haters can suck it after saying that it only did well in China. Just accept that less people than you thought gave a crap about Rehash Poppins. People in the UK and North America cared at least. We'll see where it ends up in Japan. The Mule hit 100mil. WB had a good December.

 

Anyway that is my jumbled roundup. 

 

 

[Valonqar]

Any hope that Spiderverse legs it up to 200M? it's only 30M away and with these drops or better...

[Avatree]

must have missed the #woke memo, since when was BEAUTY AND THE BEAST of all things had LGBT subject matter ?
