Which is still an insane total. Agreed. With the pace this beast has been having, and without summer days is highly impressive. Though lack of competition or family films since Puss helped. Definitely think animation should have a nice rebound this year with likely 5 movies over 100m+ domestic, and 3 to 4 over 200m+ domestic. Depending on OS holds, I wonder if topping Lion King is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, none of this weekend's openers would've done great no matter where they opened. They might as well had been released in traditional dump periods like January or late August and it wouldn't have made much of a difference for them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a bit confused by these comment too unless they're expecting Mario to do 1.7B WW. Didn't TLK do something like 1.65B+ WW? Seems like people are now expecting something like 1.1B to 1.2B WW for Mario... That a pretty long way from 1.65B+ that TLK posted. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How reasonable were ultimately disproven hypotheses and what does Mario and Sonic tell us about all three films/franchises? Mario tells us that if you make a movie that actually tries to faithfully represent the game it is adapting (for the most part) it will a bigger success than those that don't. As well as the Sonic movies have done they would have been even bigger if they were CG animated movies set fully in Sonic's world and had none of that real-world BS. How apt that it was the rancid Mario Bros. movie from '93 that started Hollywood's obsession with making movies that had little to do with the games they were based on and now 30 years later it is another Mario movie that finally shows them how to do it right. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 The Pope’s Exorcist surprising. It’s a shame, because Renfield was better. Insane for Mario everywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 Mario is likely going to be in the top 5 still by the beginning of June considering how sluggish the schedule appears aside from Guardians/Fast X/Little Mermaid between now and then. Heck, might not be until The Flash/Elemental weekend at the earliest that it leaves the top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

superduperm Posted April 16, 2023 Share Posted April 16, 2023 (edited) Beating Minions WW has to be the floor after these numbers, right? I hope so because the thought of that film being Illumination’s highest-grossing makes me ill. Edited April 16, 2023 by superduperm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insane for Mario everywhere. Planning to see the Crowe exorcise some demons this Tuesday. I did see Renfield on Friday night... It has a few moments but honestly I thought it was a pretty big mess. Wasn't nearly as fun as I hoped. Lotta good talent worked on that project too. Left me pretty flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
