Don't know if anyone mentioned this yet since I've been out and about all weekend, but after two days Captain Marvel was the highest grossing 2019 film and after three days it was the highest grossing film of the calendar year (domestically, anyway).

 

Goddamn this year has been slow up till now

 Current estimates have it 500k short of HTTYD after Sat, no? Close enough it could change with actuals.

Do you accidentally have the average movie goer splits at hand? I am not at home at the moment, I think 16% African-American sounds high in relation to 2013 or earlier, not sure about later numbers either

 I don't have the MPAA breakdown from 2013 and earlier - just 2014-2017

How does this compare to other MCU movies?  The MCU audience is younger than average, so you'd expect it to be more racially diverse. Nvm, just saw the breakdown post.

Some data TalismanRing just posted, as it was so time-near, maybe you missed the post?

MCU audience see CM is at lest prtly rather older. Here in my country too

so yeah a couple literally ran out the theater today because according to security a female was getting fingered and the couple fled before getting arrested

Is this during CM showing? What's a scene in CM that can be viewed as erotic? Lol

As much as I want to side-eye China for not giving any MCU films a breakout run, to be fair to them, no MCU movie since 2015 has ever grossed less than $100M. That is still a win for the MCU. It's not that easy to have a guaranteed $100M floor in an international market. I just wish that an MCU movie will breakout in China like Venom and Aquaman one of these days.

China: A:IW = $359,543,153

What I wrote about in International was about solo MCUs

More like $380m or so

 

BOM doing that screwy thing with conversion rates so the longer a movie stays in theaters and makes money the more it loses when conversion rates go down

[sfran43]

 

[a2k]

China top 10 CBMs

1. TA3
2. AQM
3. Venom
4. TA2
5. CW
6. CM
7. AM2
8. SMH
9. THOR3
10. JL/BP (am not sure)

So CM did very well. Folks maybe find it tough give AQM and Venom their due so they create a narrative where every other major CBM should do those huge numbers. But half of AQM and Venom is also very good for solo non-sequel SHs.

Another #glassceiling shattered. @captainmarvel is the highest grossing opening weekend for a film directed or co-directed by a woman- Anna Boden. #femalefilmmakereveryday

Didn't realize that.  Very big deal.  Imagine Jenkins will set this record next year.

Yeah, I know, it annoyes the sh... aehm..  very much

 

I think he/she wrote his post after reading in International CM.

I wrote ~ The most of the MCUs recently released get in China $100m+ to around $115 (beside Ant-Man & Wasp, $125m), He wrote than the $100m+ and this here

A: IW did a 'breakout', no matter if we'd use BOM down-changed numbers or the then actual numbers.

Venom acc BOM $272,243,405 = less

Damn then wouldn't that mean she may become the first female director to have a film gross over $1 Billion?
