I would love if this opens to 175M+ because i dont like Beauty and the Beast 17 and i especially dont like that it has a monthly OW record.

Are there anyone who actually did like BATB2017? It’s hard to find those who loved it...and now since after that film’s release...more and more people just suddenly on the ”BATB-hate”-bandwagon? Good Christ!

Little children and their parents don’t usually go on the Internet forums and make their opinions known

I was on the "hate" bandwagon directly after seeing it, so, well.

 

Also, there must be tons of people who liked it since the film grossed 1,2B WW and had good legs DOM.

Tween girls probably loved it. Most people I know liked it but thought the animated one was better obviously.

True. I mean: i’m on the opposite...since i found that film good.

 

It’s just that it really shouldn’t be a sin for people who really liked the live action ”Beauty and the Beast”. Why not like both,? Yes, the animated film is admittedly better...but let’s not act like the Disney’s live action version has nothing all good for us to like.

That’s understandable. What about those who haven’t even seen the animated version but has seen the live action one?

I have never met one of those people thankfully! I was born in 1989 so literally every single person in my generation saw the Disney Renaissance films.

What was the trailer reactions like for the people who’ve seen it? FFH/Shazam got great reaction, and I expect Frozen 2 to be even bigger than the first.

Hey nobody said you arent allowed to like BATB 17. Why do you feel so attacked?

 

Just because someone (like me in this instance) says "I dont like Film X", that doesnt mean that others cant like it, obviously. Its just the opinion of 1 guy lol.

70 mins from now, I will do some math.

It's been 76 (78 now) minutes!

Here's a thing. I am a MCU fan and I have weakness of getting too overexcited so to cancel that out, I will be using the most conservative estimates. Since CM had a long pre-sales run, I will be assuming it is pre-sales heavy. Considering all that.

 

I still want more data, which I expected will be there but it's not yet. That said, 

Captain Marvel Friday shall go for ,(excluding Thursday) as *very early estimate* is $39-43mn approx.

 

Wait till 12 am EST, there will be more data to do math for.

Please take these number with pinch of salt.

60/65M OD

good or bad? I think is 👌🏼👍🏻

A $60-65m OD inc. previews is pretty good. Maybe 50 sat and 40 sun gives $150-155m. Still amazing but not explosive as suggested. 

 

As you say these are very early estimates, all could change in a matter of hours.

I dare anyone to say that a 60M OD for a Captain Marvel movie would be "bad"

[The Panda]

Those are some big preview numbers, 150m+ OW incoming

I've not seen both of them

I am old enough to have seen Jungle Book (1967 version) during its first run 😉

I got Spider-Man, Dark Phoenix, Godzilla, and Frozen II. I missed whatever was the first trailer since I was buying popcorn, however none of the trailers got any sort of reaction.
