480 isn’t near 520 now?   
 

It’s doing close to AM1. That’s exactly why the performance is atrocious.

The fact that it won’t beat it is what makes it atrocious. There’s 8 years of inflation involved too. 
 

(I also don’t see it getting to 480 lol)

Still waiting for FURY OF THE GODS' overseas number, but I think it would be similar to the domestic figure.

[kayumanggi]

yup

This is the last weekend Avatar 2 stay within top 10 after 14 weeks, the PTA is so much higher than PIB2 and on par with other newer releases.

I must have missed the earlier posts in this argument but this is ridiculous. 89 had good BO but not on the level of TDK. And not in cultural impact either imo but that one is hard to measure.

This is revisionism? The soundtrack alone stayed #1 on billboard for 6 consecutive weeks. 

[kayumanggi]

Hmm. This might not make 300M and pass ROCKY IV.

No, it’s just TDK being even bigger.

Batman soundtracks from that era were just bizarre.  What the fuck is this?

Same as AVATAR. TOP GUN: MAVERICK was in the top 10 for 21 weeks while SPIDER-MAN: NO WAY HOME spent 17 weeks in the top 10.

Scream 5 dropped 53.9% without previews, Scream 6 dropped 54.8% without previews.  Scream 5 had no competition, it had a good Sunday because of holiday Monday, but Sundays in 2023 for horror movies have been above normal, so that probably doesn't matter.  M3GAN made 18,3 on weekend 2, so Scream is going to have to drop like 20% to match M3GAN which is something that has to happen otherwise...

I hope everything increases and push the weekend total towards 100M.

[JimmyB]

Only $65 million worldwide opening for Shazam, yikes. $150 million worldwide total?

Antman 3 making $40 million < 2015 Antman worldwide.

Its been a downhill trajectory for superhero movies since Morbius droped.

Puss in Boots 2 nearly reaching 500M Worldwide is giving me hope for cinema.

Their quality wasn't the best. Let's see how Guardians 3 performs first before declaring emergency. That should do gangbusters
