So are there any hard numbers yet which is why people are starting to slide into doom and gloom?

There was never any doom and gloom. People were discussing possibilities while waiting for the numbers. We won't get any hard numbers until the middle of the night my time and it's only 7pm right now.

I gave my legit prediction for the film in it’s thread and everything after that’s been sarcasm/trolling

agree. 2.8b is out of reach. with today's exr tough to breach 2.5b. let's go reasonable and say 2.4b for pika.

This is for the opening weekend, right? 

[JJ-8]

Wow. Nice

 

So we have

 

Pv - 20.5m

Friday (without Pv) - 40.9m

Sat (a guard) - 53m - 54.5m

Sun (projected) - 37m to 49m

 

So the range I get after those is 151m - 164m)

 

I think CM lands around 158m based on this

 

Fantastic result!

[Lordmandeep]

Remember when Iw broke the saturday record by 13 million dollars.

 

Lol

People genuinely believe it’s going to be massive. The outlandish predictions are obviously just jokes though

These Pika comments are starting to border on James Cameron fandom level of delusion. 

More like, Detective Pikachu is bordering on James Cameron level.

At this point, what is considered "outlandish" for Detective Pikachu?

These are fantastic numbers for Captain Marvel and anyone feeling disappointed should be ashamed. People here seem to only look at the high end of the predictions.

 

I also think there are some people obsessed with stan wars and only wanted this movie to reach certain milestones to rub it in other members faces. Both comic book franchises are killing it.

[DAJK]

Captain Marvel, while not the best MCU film by far, gets me really excited for Phase 4. Hopefully Marvel is able to keep the hype on their series going after Endgame.

From RTH in the Australia thread....

"CM Huge Sat increase from Fri +70% (biggest Comic Book) bigger than increase BATB, 7th biggest Sat (behind MCU  AIW,TA, AOU) others TFA, TLJ,HPDH2. Looking  We lc13.5(BP 10.5m)/15m +wed Pvev . will be top 10 Sunday as well."

This is a great #!

[Darth Lehnsherr]

Imagine saying 10 years ago the superheroes to have their films gross $1 Billion+ would be Batman, Iron Man, Captain America (with some help), Black Panther, Aquaman and now probably Captain Marvel.
