Beat projections by .7. Wonder what it will gross today. I imagine somewhere in the mid 20's which means it's looking at an around 65M OW which means it'll beat projections by a lot.

IF that happens it's probably beating Endgame this weekend.

But it's not happening. $50m OW squad.

Shazam!'s increase on Saturday with a -20% on Sunday with Mother's Day gives it:

 

5.7M

15M

20.3M

16.2M

 

57.2M OW

With numbers this big each day/week/weekend counts.. in another words... no clue... who can say how many people will realize in the next month or so that there are no more rdj shennanigans or caps feisty optimism and go see it few more times... i see no end in endgame, but demand first must fall to normal levels(10m a week)... then we will be able to see a clear picture? Nah... until it leaves theaters TTVOMJ

Yeah I threw out a possible pathway to 60 but 54-58 seems more likely.

If Saturday falls 20 under gimme 55ish

It made 20.7 on Friday, so why are you writing 15?

My “loyalty” is to movies I enjoy. I don’t care who makes them.

[MCKillswitch123]

Seems like 60+ really is where Pikachu is headed. All things considered, it is the biggest OW for a video game movie ever (2nd biggest when adjusted, after the original Tomb Raider), so it's a good start. Should hit around 160-170 DOM and 500M WW, I reckon.

Preview numbers are not included in Friday numbers.

yes, they are

[Curtis1986]

So as experts predicted. Only 50 to 55 million weekend. If there is a sequel people need to keep your expectations in check

It's worth noting that it increased better than Shazam! for its Thursday to Friday gross, so it is possible that it plays out better (went from 5.7 to 20.7, as opposed to Shazam! going from 5.9 to 20.3).  We'll see how Saturday increases.  I think 58M seems about right for now
