Seems to be that Black Widow will be the lowest grossing title for the franchise staying 27% behind 2008's Hulk. Shang-Chi should challenge it.

Called it. After F9 no movie was going to do buzz here until No Way Home with Let There Be Carnage having the chance to do better than average.

[Purple Minion]

Shang-Chi up to $4.4M. Malignant had a $514k OW.

Just awful. May be 150M full run at best case.

[Purple Minion]

Looks like a decent drop for Shang-Chi, held to the #1 position and crossed 100M lc, ($5.9M). Free Guy reached $3.3M.

[charlie Jatinder]

Added M$31M (-26%) in last 7 days. If can drop , 37.5% weekly, can hit M$168M which is still an awful number but atleast 10% better than last week. 

[Purple Minion]

According to Box Office Pro, Shang-Chi was down just 14%. Can you imagine if it passes Black Widow...

 

[Purple Minion]

Actual drop for Shang-Chi in lc was just 12.7%, total is now 117.3M lc ($5.9M).

[Legion Again]

Beating BW seems pretty easy then? 

[charlie Jatinder]

Seems a lot optimistic to me. Even 3x from here will not be enough, which I guess is really tough.

 

In other POV, need 29% weekly drop. Really hard.

[Purple Minion]

Shang-Chi again on top, reached $6 8M.

[Purple Minion]

Actuals just out, 45% drop for Shang-Chi. Still miles away from Natasha.

 

05     193,500,000  Black Widow

07     136,200,000  Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

Thinking $2M for NTTD opening. Maybe $2.5M

Let There Be Carnage presales looking healthy; could go by $4.5M+ OW

No Way Home can't come soon enough. It would've probably smashed Endgame's opening record under normal circumstances. This time should aim to beat with ease both Black Widow's and Shang-Chi's full runs within a weekend.

[Purple Minion]

Deadline reports $588K for Bond across Wednesday and Thursday, 37% above Skyfall’s opening Thursday.

[Purple Minion]

More Bond: Mexico’s cume through Friday is $1M, in line with Skyfall. The full frame should land just above that pic with $1.8M.

Should really be above $2M. Bond is a male; 35+ dominant saga so doubt is that frontloaded.

After seeing Let There Be Carnage DOM numbers I think if walk-up is strong could blow up a $7M+ opening next weekend.

Did CoVID came back? The market surprised with $6M for GvK, legged to $20M, now even $7M Venom 2 will be bigger than anything in months.

I think the mindset right now is "If it's not big enough is not worth the risk or spent" Both BW and SC were always poised to be just some others Ant-Man and hype simply dried out; Eternals another GOTG but could do better than the two previously mentioned. Bond has never meant much here and Dune is sci-fi which always struggles.

Deadline is now predicting $2.4M for NTTD, topping Skyfall and become Universal’s second-biggest opening of the pandemic.

 

Shang-Chi reached $7.3M.

[Carlangonz]

Let There Be Carnage opening day coming closer than expected to No Time To Die, The Suicide Squad and Shang Chi's respective opening weekends. $8M+ 5-Day opening on the cards
