richtmancharles Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Talking of Endgame, Why are people comparing it to Infinity War?Infinity War opened 100m less than Endgame. This is a superhero movie not a cultural event like Force Awakens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not talking fanboyism. I am saying expectations should be in check. When a movie opens as high as 357M OW, of course there would be high expectation. 11 years of building up, 22 movies. It is a cultural event to the MCU fans, just like how TFA was to the Star Wars fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you talking about? It's a cultural event, it's a global event, it's the definition of each at box office. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be #2 domestic easily, just because it doesn't beat TFA doesn't mean it isn't a cultural event, it's opening alone proves that it is a domestic cultural event because people were that hyped to see it immediately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just as Force Awakens, Last Jedi, Black Panther, Infinity War, Dark Knight, Avengers, Avatar, Spider-Man, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, etc. were cultural events DOM. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still curious to see what late legs are like starting with Memorial Day weekend. This. Post-Memorial Day is when I'm most curious about how it's legs will carry it through the rest of summer.

cdsacken Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Not to get side tracked but the build up of SFA was incredible, far exceeding EG. Phantom Menace was very mediocre and did adjusted 800+ DOM. SFA delivered and did 936. Last Jedi wasn't as good but better than PM yet plummeted to 620 (still awesome BTW but a 315m drop). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richtmancharles Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Very good imo. Family movies dive in weekdays. I think it will do around 30m this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are acting like it's a foregone conclusion that it will perform worse than IW for the final run. It's possible sure but IW fell off a cliff hard, especially in June. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
