It helps that its a lot better than the last film. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Good opening for The Call of the Wild (if only the budget wasn't so high...) and a good drop for Sonic all things considered. Most of the holdovers took a bit of a dive with the long holiday weekend + Valentine's Day (77% drop for The Photograph, oof) passing. Looks like Birds of Prey is definitely missing $100M now. Oh well. The Boy 2 is yet another dud for the horror genre, which has been on a losing streak since October. At least The Invisible Man and A Quiet Place Part II should turn things around. Great start for Emma. It has everything going for it to become an indie sleeper hit as it expands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Robert1 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 35 minutes ago, The Horror of Lucas Films said: Jesus Christ! Jumanji is hitting $320m at this point!!!! And to think that people expected it to go under $200m after the Chinese OW. It needs 9m after 3m weekend, and soon it will have digital/blue-ray release. 320m seems to optimistic for me.

Gavin Feng Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 from DL Quote Best case scenario box office-wise is that this movie reaches $150M WW, $75M of that coming from domestic which spells for a loss around $100M per finance sources. Despite the overindexing of Call of the Wild stateside, it’s a hallow victory given how much the film cost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT TO ADD: BoP and Dolittle truly may come down to the wire in WW box office - who saw that coming?

John Marston Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) Dolittle has passed 200m ww?

Jesus Christ if they had budgeted this responsibly it would have been a modest hit and a win for Downey Could get itself a sequel if Downey took a salary cut...again, the current production budget could easily be halved even if they booked a 2nd star with Downey...if Downey would do it for less:)... Maybe the final WW number will make it happen...especially since (even without China) it's passed the WW performance of 2019 family movies The Addams Family, Lego 2, Abominable, Spies in Disguise, Angry Birds 2, Dora, and all the movies that couldn't make $100M WW and aren't worth listing... I mean, Disney went higher...supers went higher...and Jumanji, Pets 2, Pikachu, and HTTYD3 went higher...and that's about it...so, if you don't have supers or you're not the Disney studio, this sequel might be your best move:)... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorddemaxus Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Lmao, someone on r/boxoffice literally argued with me that BoP will have a huge drop next weekend and fail to reach 200 mil partly because of Guns Akimbo. Those guys are seriously out to get the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even as it stands it has I think a couple more territories (Japan, Brazil) and China (whenever that happens - though it will less than if it opened when first scheduled).

They could reuse ALL the animal characters with no extra costs for CGI development next time (since all of that initial design is done)...and people would be happy if they just gave a new story...RDJ's salary is the hardest cut...
