Alice in Wonderland

1951 adj: $100m-ish?  (wiki says $5.6m nominal)

2010 adj: $383m

 

Cinderella

1950 adj: $550m (including all re-releases)

2015 adj: $221m

 

Sleeping Beauty/Maleficent

1959 adj: $662m (including all re-releases)

2014 adj: $265m

 

Jungle Book

1967 adj: $671m (including all re-releases

2016 adj: $380m

 

Beauty and the Beast

1991 adj: $413m (including all re-releases)

2017 adj: $517m

 

Aladdin

1992 adj: $478m

2019: $355m

 

Lion King

1994 adj: $812m (including all re-releases)

2019: $550-650m

 

 

I'd say BatB over performed relative to the others from the 90s.  Aladdin and Lion King are doing similarly well relative to their originals assuming something around 600m for TLK.  The ones from the 50s and 60s are all over the map.

Is this the shortest thread for a 185M+ OW?

To be fair, about 50 pages of the TLJ thread are hidden.

... yup sounds like a TLJ discussion on BOT.   

 

True length above 200 means that I won’t be forced to deem it #notAnEvent

I was actually going to say, this weekend feels very uneventful for such a big weekend. Lo and behold...

That's low for TFA considering it broke the OWEnd record...

 

But damn at that number of pages for JW, above Endgame.

It really does... Maybe it's weekdays or the 2nd weekend will be eventful, but this run is probably going to be rather uninteresting (meaning no amazing holds or disastrous drops).

Endgame overtaking Avatar, SDCC, and Cats trailer stole a lot of limelight. Lack of talking points in its storyline, and relatively lackadaisical performance did not help either.

Yeah I've been thinking this since Saturday,  but wondered if it was just my own bias against TLK (the associated soundtrack albums are also performing poorly). Agree with your points. Especially wrt Marvel. Honestly Disney is lucky it owns Marvel because they're the most interesting thing that company's got going on lately. Without the MCU they're mostly just a bunch of remakes, spinoffs and unwanted sequels these days. Marvel's the one trying to take risks and try new things. Times like this I wish they were their own entity.

What will EG likely finish with now? 2.8B? Roughly another 10M WW gets it there I think...

Can it be higher than that with the actual?
