Black Widow is popular, but that’s like saying Iron Man is more popular than Thor. Only one is active in the franchise rn. Can I say that Okoye and probably Shuri are more popular than both... I think Okoye beats Shuri for shear bad-ass-ness... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a lower bump than most May MCU films, but also seems to be playing less to families, so within realm of possibilities Even in best case scenario, will have fallen behind CACW in total gross ($296) by Sunday, if not Saturday That $60-$62 range seems a bit ambitious, but looks like it could have just enough juice to cross $60M when actuals come in (unless Sunday has a larger than typical drop) Edited May 15, 2022 by M37 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildphantom Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 All I’m hearing is ‘give the masses what the expect or face diminishing box office returns’ which is actually depressing af. it’s kind of accurate too, but for all the talk over the horror, scares etc - that was actually the best thing about it for me. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 (edited) Doctor Strange still has a chance at $400M because the light schedule (and the fact everything else out right now is starting to make their exit) means it's gonna be around for a while. Here's the schedule until Thor comes out: May 20: Downton Abbey, Men May 27: Top Gun, Bob's Burgers June 10: Jurassic World June 17: Lightyear June 24: Elvis, The Black Phone July 1: Minions It's going to be #1 again next weekend, and will be staying in the top 5 until late June (Downton Abbey is seeing a drop from the first one, neither Men or Bob's Burgers will be much of a threat to anything). More likely than not it'll still be in the top 10 when Thor opens for potential double feature money. Edited May 15, 2022 by filmlover 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EEAAO shows that people still crave original movies in theaters, but something like The Northman will always have a limited audience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedijake Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 A 2.0 multiplier for DS2 would be absolutely devastating and makes me really wonder how well Thor4 and BP2 are going to fare. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely than not it'll still be in the top 10 when Thor opens for potential double feature money. Top 10 in this weaker market doesn’t mean all that much. Dropping like 50% each week, MoM could be at or below 1M by Thor (roughly $60/$32/$16/$8/$4/$2/$1M) Would think it’s more likely MoM gets double feature with Lightyear, then LY with Thor, or at best a mix (like Incredibles 2/Infinity War/Ant-Man & Wasp in 2018), unless Disney mandates the DF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping The Black Phone is a return to box office form for horror. And I’m not even an Elvis fan, but that trailer makes me feel emotional. Shame about the runtime, but I’m still looking forward to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
