All right, all right, all right. Time to update a spreadsheet. 
 

Saw this immediately coming back to the thread from updating my spreadsheet . 

 

my very first initial guess number for Jojo was 430, why'd I have to listen to other people 😢

Did you guys do the 3 year deal for $150?

It was such a steal.

Maleficent 2 is doing far better than I expected it to.  Granted I haven't been following box office for a little bit but I was expecting like 25M.

Damn, that was very pessimistic. It's opening below tracking, so it's quite poor, but yeah, you were expecting Alice 2 floppage.

I'll get a free trial when any of the shows I'm interested in ends

Shows are weekly. No binging like netflix. For me it's so cheap it's worth it. What's sad is I think I'm more excited than my daughter is about it. But she will love being able to watch the old Disney films.

So, depending on how Joker does at the end of its run, if it does surpass both Deadpools (which seems to be in the high chance here), the movie could end up being, Worldwide Wise:

 

-The "Venom" of 2019 (856M)

 

-The "Batman V Superman" of 2019 (873M)

 

-The "Wonder Woman" of 2019 (821M)

 

 

Unfortunately, it has an unlikely chance at becoming:

-The "Bohemian Rhapsody" of 2019 (903M)

-The "Aladdin" of 2019 (1.05B)

-The "Dark Knight" of 2019 (1.005B)

 

Unless Joker plans on getting a re-release during awards season, chances are 50/50, but most likely not happening.

idk, it just seems easier to wait till Mandalorian wraps in like December and watch all of it in one go, and just do that for any other event series I'm interested in

If it's doing over 600M overseas, then it's already a done deal to gross more than Bohemian Rhapsody worldwide.

Makes sense.

 

I kind of sense a Halloween boost for the movie this year. The only movies that got a boost during that season were Halloween in 2018 and Jigsaw the year before, so chances are that it might end up happening to Joker this year.

[The Futurist]

So, best case scenario for the Joker dom ?

 

350m ?

We've already got one of those.

[JB33]

8.6 for Joker?? Yikes, that's a bad Friday increase.

[a2k]

got to be a record discrepancy?

 

[The Futurist]

Seeing  boomers directors flying like litle scared pigeons to eat the crumbs Netfix want to give them to finance their films has got to be one of the saddest and most pathetic spectacle in the movie making business in the last 40 years.

 

Do these people have any decency whatsoever ?

 

Seeing Martin Scorcese's interview in London performing fellatio to Netfix was embarrassing.

So you'd rather have no "The Irishman" than one funded by Netflix?

Gemini Man has 25%/84%, Rambo similar... and that's just the last few weeks.

Jolie has basically done zilch since the first Maleficent 5 years ago, so I’m sure that’s boosting MoE at the box office. She was one of the few true box office draws around and I’d bet her finally being in something again is offsetting how much MoE likely would have tanked otherwise. 

[Xftg123]

@MovieMan89

 

Not only that, she's also set to be in the Eternals, so there's that too.

 

I had to check and box office wise, Maleficent is her highest grossing movie. Second, third, and fourth to that is the Kung Fu Panda trilogy.

Her next film could make a billie imo
