2.5x multiplier gets this to $335m. 3x multiplier gets it to $400m!

 

I'm thinking it'll do around $360m but $400m would be awesome. 

 

Why average legs? It strikes me as a movie that will hit at least 2.8x.

Great sat jump and tiny sun drop is promising for legs

Logan did 2.66 with similar WOM. Of course that had much stronger competition so this will likely be higher.

The legs on this can/should be great, but the final number depends on the dumbfucks at corporate AT&T and that moron who was leading HBOMax.  They will kill the legs if they toss this on HBOMax at 45 days.  Hopefully they are smart enough to wait until at least June 1st.

I wonder where Gitesh is getting 400 million from? With a HBO release in a month and a half I just can't see that happening. Maybe I'll be proven wrong though.

Not to be "disappointed" by Saturday when number down to 43m from initial projection 46m. I guess 32m then

 

Lol, great call Boro.  You're a genius.

The Brazilian (or Latin American, I can't quite remember) Max socials have already started touting the April 17 date, so it's likely too late for that.

2.66 is great legs for a Wolverine film, though.

Sorry this wasn’t aimed at you, it was the people discussing the tiny percentage of countries where it didn’t go #1. 

Get them bitches again! Get them for me.

Yeah, corporations aren't gonna wait. I can't see a chance this does not come out on HBOMax after 45 days.

We live in a world where Shang-Chi and Eternals get longer theatrical exclusive runs than Batman

It's been proven that nothing's entirely official when it comes to streaming launches unless a concrete date is actually set and marketed. If this develops strong staying power (which seems possible with good word-of-mouth and a mostly clear schedule the next few weeks) I can see them holding off on the streaming launch.

Yeah we should definitely hope for common sense from the geniuses who day and dated every single 2021 movie and pissed off their partners and talents

Is that mid April date not final? Disney was more cagey with Shang Chi and Eternals for example but it feels like WB has had actual marketing materials committing to mid April, not to mention Jason Kilar or whatever.

Yeah, don’t get why people rushing to  leave a place after 45 days to somewhere where he got to stay 45000 days there.

Sony revised NWH to 4.515M (-22%) 

1.075 

2.065M (+92%) 

1.375M (-33%) 

with 15 days before the digital version is released, NWH has a tough task to get next 14 million.

Even if they delay on US, latin america already set the date for April 17 so there will be a 4K link by then anyway
