Has Marvel offered any clues or anyone else any clues about a potential next Avengers film? I mean I would assume you can still have another future Avengers just without a few of the current characters, but new ones would come along or current ones take a bigger role.

 

Maybe they let it cool down for 4-5 years?

No clues, nothing official. The only "sure" things (again, not really official) are Black widow solo movie, the eternals, Shang-chi and Black panther 2. Maybe even cpt Marvel 2. Next avengers will be imho smaller (new avengers?) and then A6 will blow everything up with Avengers vs X-men or Secret wars

33 points in the 2nd half with 23 coming in the last 9:43 minutes. Ass indeed

I don't see why Pikachu wouldn't reach high 50s or even low 60s with a 20M Friday.  That's the same number as Shazam! and I have my doubts on Pikachu decreasing on Saturday like Shazam! did.  It should also have a better Sunday drop because of Mother's Day.

This was thursday of IO release. It was already at 31%. Plus I linked to KJ thread having thursday timestamp. Kiddo I was tracking IO and JW on that day. I am done with you. Adding you to ignore list.

it grossed 14.3m on friday. 5.7m was grossed on thursday. You have been following BO for a long time. What do you see its saturday for it to hit low 60s?

I think it's entirely possible that Pikachu ends up playing as a combination of both a fanboy-driven property (leading to the inflated preview number/lower than expected Friday number) and a family movie.  Taking HTTYD 3's increase, for instance, gets Pikachu to 22.2M Saturday, and a -20% drop for Sunday or so gets it to 60M.  This is obviously a best case scenario where everything for it goes right, but I don't think it's impossible.

Oh my god lol just picturing Avengers and X-Men gives me a nerdgasm. Marvel was my first love when I was maybe 8 or 9, I actually just sold most of my comic / card collection this year (my dad made me take it out of his attic ha ha!). I found a signed Stan Lee card, the only item I held onto! Stan Lee was such a great guy, a creative genius, I could never sell that. He has given so much to the world and stoked our imaginations.

Detective pikachu will more PLF shows on Saturday. That will help for sure 

 

Shazam had imax and plf shows and still decreased

Ok. Let us wait until tomorrow's numbers.

Saw the Hustle

 

didn’t hate it. My mom liked it too

[Alli]

20M is really good for PIka

[WhiteWings]

Hm, I wonder if Pikapika will end up with Alita numbers. Gonna see it today, if I end up loving it too it's gonna bum me out. But I'm only expecting to like it.

 

This movie has a lot going for it, if this can't make it then it's pretty depressing (Oh Sonic, you are so f*cked...).

Could be looking at another 58% drop for Endgame. 

 

Needs a 3.87x weekend multiplier to avoid it with 16. 

 

I was right about Pika Pika not going insane.

Straight up... When they couldn't win the 4th quarter in Game 5, it was over... Bucks or Raptors always had the best chance.

Saw Detective Pikachu, think it will play well to families and crowd. Not a bad movie at all; felt that a lot of effort went into the script and direction.

It seems like nitpicking to me. She is sitting next to one of the funniest dudes in the world and she is about to have her breakout released. Give her a break.

Yeh maybe if you watched a... clip. The show was an hour long and she did not let up. Not saying she’s a horrible person lol, but she was very irritating throughout.

Nitpicking actresses for silly interviews is pure misogynistic bullcrap.

I’m pretty sure you already know that I’m not a misogynist. She was trending with people saying how annoying she was. Not that she shouldn’t be on, or have a huge film etc.
