Ah, I see we have someone who is less concerned with box office and more concerned with eliciting reactions out of people  

 

Anyone who knows anything about box office understands... you know what it's not even worth my time. Go take a look at Mojo if you actually care lol

 

You actually thought I was serious when I said "OMG, CM is a flop because it won't reach Avatar's #"????

With Dumbo and Shazam releasing soon it seems 160-165 will be the highest range for HTTYD3? That gives it a multi of 2.9-3.0x after a 55.0 ow.

Yeah that list is wrong. BP was fully introduced in Civil War. Avengers is far from first entry.

 

So it's the highest brand new no introduction solo movie. Being #1 the multiplier makes sense.

WAY up? I mean 1.015 to 1.083 is certainly AN increase, but I wouldn't consider it at all substantial lol

Party pooper.
