I don’t know about the box office experts like you on this site,  but I find estimates without quoting the actual numbers on which they are basing the estimates kind of useless. 

I'm not an expert at all, but absolutely agreed on the second bit.  "at least" 50m.  Whatever.  Tell me something useful next time.

[Minnale101]

Great number for John wick 3. Well deserved 

 

But yeah idk why deadline teasing that endgame isn’t gonna be surpassed by wick this weekend and number 1 lmao

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't a 25m Friday mean more realistically 60-65?

Also that’s the exact OW range I predicted for Wick

And if it could go higher, then does that mean...

 

THE 70M DREAM IS STILL ALIVE?

DOUBLE WICK CHAPTER 2 IS ALL I ASK

 

I DON'T ASK FOR MUCH

[Barnack]

30M would be the exact same -52.6% of Infinity War and that one faced a 125m deadpool. At least would be getting of the near -60% figure.

If it goes over Fallout, then does that mean Keanu is a bigger draw than Cruise?

EVEN BETTER, LET'S DO THIS

[Ms Lady Hawk]

Deadline over-predicts Endgame every Friday. If it really went up 135% to 8 million, then it is making more than 30 million. The drop on Sunday, will not be too steep, since there is a Canadian holiday on Monday.

[Eric Loves Rey]

Sorry if this was already mentioned before, but...

 

Quote

Endgame will take a fourth Friday with $8M for a fourth-weekend take of $30M, which will send it past Avatar on Sunday to become the second highest-grossing movie of all time domestically with $771M

 

Warner Bros/Legendary’s Pokémon Detective Pikachu, meanwhile, is looking at $6M today for a three-day total of $24M and $93.1M by Sunday.

 

Universal/Amblin/Reliance’s A Dog’s Journey is eyeing $2.5M today (including an estimated $250,000 from Thursday shows) for an estimated three-day of $8M-$10M.

 

MGM’s The Hustle looks like $1.7M today for a three-day of $6M and 10-day of $23M, good for No. 5 overall.

 

Warner Bros/MGM/Alloy’s The Sun Is Also a Star is seeing $1.4M today (including an estimated $180K from Thursday shows) for a three-day today of $4M.

 

[Zakiyyah6]

Endgame is not making 8 million today. I don't get Deadline's obsession with over projecting Endgame.

[Alli]

Huge numbers for JW3. Keanu has struck gold with this franchise. Good for him.
