And you are right about me not hating avengers since I’m an actual MCU fan. I wanted the movie to hit 2B and feel tricked and betrayed by the predictions here. As for my age: I’m young but I’m not that young, old but I’m not that old. Relax , it will pass 2 billion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avengers and Deadpool are only keeping 1 evening show each. For me JW2 has 2.5 screens, DP2 1, Solo 0.75 (loses evening) and AIW 1. So Solo has been dropped drastically from the 3 screens last week, as most of them were pretty bare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Solo going from 5 evening showings, to 2. Seems it has massively underperformed and Jurassic World is going to crush it to death next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Am I the only person who doesn't think Mamma Mia 2 will outgross Mamma Mia? The first was so big I dont see why it will get an increase...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, I'm not so sure of an increase, but it will definitely do fuck tonnes and be one of the biggest this year I think it's an easy £50m+ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avatree Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I also think there's a novelty factor in the first one and you have to be a genuine fan of the first to go see the second... similar to Deadpool actually which had a big decline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, Mamma Mia! Is the biggest selling dvd ever in the UK. So it’s audience could’ve expanded. I don’t think it’ll get to those record breaking heights. But it could be huge.
