Weekend Thread: Friday estimates - Shazam $6.37M | Little $5.37M | Hellboy $4.93M | Pet Sematary $2.93M | After $2.90M | Dumbo $2.27M

@MCKillswitch123 Aviron/Voltage’s After is seeing an estimated $7.7M weekend here in the U.S./Canada but we hear that this $14M financed production from Black Diamond, CalMaple, Wattpad and Voltage is doing very well in Italy, Portugal, Argentina and Germany. 

 

Oh it fucking is Deadline, it fucking is.

Wow. Shazam came below Deadline friday estimate of 6.6M

 

Captain Marvel came above deadline estimate of 2M

 

Captain Marvel will earn 8M+ this weekend. 

 

Shazam will earn 23M+ this weekend. 

Deadline is underestimating its saturday bump. This movie plays like a family movie. It will get over $25 million.

Some countries just really like their "sexy" bad fan fic movies.

Is 7m OW for After a breakout?

Still gonna sell less admissions in total than the 2004 movie did in its first weekend. Pitiful.

[Rebeccas]

Shazam is performing like a regular comic book movie. It's fine. 

 

CM is riding that Endgame hype. Its probably going to hold even better next week as Endgame approaches.

415M would be acceptable. As long as it doesnt go over Fallen Kingdom, the world will be a happy place.

Friday increase was around 168% vs 156% for Boss Baby. 

Boss Bay increased 70% on Saturday and decreased 35% on Friday. 

With the same increase/decrease Shazam would do $24M.

$23M is more realistic.

I expect WW1984 to explode. 200/500 is my prediction.

Any reason? Did I miss something? JW:FK came in Summer so it's going to have an upper hand to CM.

Yeah... by about $300m. 

 

Does $5-10m give or take domestic really matter?  Especially when we're not even bothering to do adjusted numbers?

Before WW1984 BOP and Black Widow are coming.. I think second movie wouldn't have that royalty like the first one. 

 

It will do good but not that good. 

 

I also except BP to decrease. There is nothing wrong in that. 

[DAJK]

Ugh Shazam definitely deserved to be a 250M domestic movie

I loved WW so much. I can't believe CM is beating it by that much. And NO, i haven't seen CM yet, but i can't imagine it being better.
