M37 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I’m of the opinion Puss falls short and Ant-Man blows past $300, so this void remains open for a little while longer So maybe Shazam 2? Black Adam wasn’t too far off for a new character and average reviews, while Shazam has some built up good will and potentially a more family friendly/leggier run (sandwiched between 2 MCU films) If not, then some will argue for Mario (I won’t), then Fast X given F9 made $170 in a still pandemic deflated market. If those all miss, then it’s Little Mermaid (over $300?) or Spider-Verse, which I think has the best chance if something else doesn’t get there first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAJK Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 I'm still not convinced Ant-Man will cross 300. AMATW only made 216 right in the middle of that post-Infinity War, pre-Endgame hype. Yes, this does feel like more of a "MCU Event" film ala MoM than a standalone, but I'm not convinced it goes above 270 or so quite yet. I don't think Puss will quite make it, but it will get close. Other than that, John Wick is a possibility, although my guess is it stays flat (or slightly decreases) from the third. Mario is a 350M+ grosser, Little Mermaid does 300+, Fast X does 150, so yea I guess my money would be on Spiderverse at around 250M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t convinced for 300m until a few days ago, it’s having strong presales which indicates a 120m 3 day. I’m thinking John Wick or SpiderVerse like you said. Rooting that Puss could do it but unlikely (however if it follows the same holds as Sing this weekend, it’d be flat from last weekend.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I'm actually thinking we'll get a bunch of $200M+ grossers this year tbh, especially in the summer (where there's already like a dozen movies that I believe are locked for $100M+ over May/June/July). Mostly just waiting to see how the last third of the year shapes up since it's looking a little dry right now in terms of scheduling.

Grebacio Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Which movies will do it on 2024? Dune will most likely be the next one GxK could do it but I think it will fall short by a few millions. Despicable Me IMO will do it. Beetlejuice Gladiator and Wicked are good contenders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if legs help Dune reach 300M? 7M Monday 8M Tuesday 5M Wednesday 5M Thursday 12M Friday 21M Saturday 15M Sunday 2nd weekend 48M for a 10day total of 155M With that, the chances of 300M become real Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porthos Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 On 3/2/2024 at 6:50 AM, Legion Again said: Still nothing 216-298 since SC Wonka just claimed that crown. At 217.7m right now. Does look like the $225m line is safe though (and I unironically note that this is another win for @M37 if a very close for comfort one). Should top out at, what, 221m? 220m to 222m? Something like that at any rate (unless it gets some late late legs thanks to Dune: Part Two). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
