But great week for Guardians though, thinking no worse than a 53% drop for it. He's a sad person in general. Can't imagine a life where all your jollies come from fighting box office nerds online. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Fast X and (to a lesser degree) The Little Mermaid will hit it but depending on how the weekend goes, 330+ is definitely looking likely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasNicole Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 (edited) FWIW, with ~7.1M THU, the exact same pattern of MOM 2nd weekend [which let´s be honest isn´t special at all] would still lead to 54M and a 54% drop only for Guardians 3 Not saying sub 50% is locked or something but ... would be kinda surprising if it behaves like MOM imo Edited May 12, 2023 by ThomasNicole 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liiviig 1998 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Another factor to consider is opening weekend was affected current state of MCU and some of the GA was reluctant to come out in usual numbers but now with good word of mouth and with how beloved this franchise is are now turning up. 60M+ is very likely . Even the early 6.75m number was still really good for 57M+ Just to be cautious going 55-65m weekend MCU just needs to make good movies and all we be fine. All this superhero fatigue talk should cool down Abit. Let's see how the weekend goes but confident in 850-875m+ WW total . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMan89 Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Getting way OT, but I think the potential is there for Elder Scrolls 6 to be even bigger than GTA 6. Been a longer wait and Elder Scrolls fits the mold of the direction gaming has gone in more than GTA does now. Big fantasy open world RPGish games like Breath of the wild, Witcher 3 and Elden Ring have seen more success than most “gritty” shooter type games in recent years. And Skyrim is arguably what set the industry on that course to start with. And that game is one literally every platform at this point, it never dies. Of course, both may literally still be a decade away, so who knows what mainstream gaming taste will be then. 1 2 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eXtacy Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 So its basically caught up with GOTG2 dailies. Very impressive. If it follows GOTG2 weekend will be 64m Wakanda Forever weekend will be 63m Quantumania weekend will be 60m Thor 3 weekend will be ~64m Strange 2 weekend 53m (Seems like Multiverse of Madness is an outlier) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustLurking Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 ...Tangent aside, that's a great thu for guardians. Still don't think that 65M club is going to happen but probably not that far off at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadOlCatSylvester Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Something like $61M sounds about right for Guardians 3 this weekend going off of these weekdays. The drop is likely to be a massive step up from the rest of Phase 4 and 5, and I think it's also one of the best for the franchise as a whole. The Marvels being a huge wildcard is a shame, because otherwise I can see this year being a big rebound for the Marvel brand with early raves for Loki Season 2 and Secret Invasion.
