Spidey looks like it will finally pass GOTG 3 for the summer DOM lead on Sunday (or at the latest, Monday)...

[Liiviig 1998]

30m+ insidious

25-26m Indy

9-9.5m elemental.

 

July off a to a good start with  insidious . MI on the way and arguably most exciting weekend of the summer with Barbiehiemer.

I know there were some discussions about JLo star quality couple of weeks back but after seeing performances of NHF and JoyRide, I feel like we have an answer here. NHF would have done probably similarly as JoyRide if JLo wasn't the lead and NHF is gonna end up doing 30M+ just domestically itself, probably even more higher WW.

Jennifer Lopez is in no hard feelings?

I'm struggling to find one that he was in in the 70s as well

Apocalypse Now?

Elemental is having the best run it could possibly have after a very bad OW

I feel like Bridesmaids was the last mainstream comedy that was truly laugh out loud funny. 

I don't know if it counts as straight comedy, but The Nice Guys was hilarious IMO

Ouch for Indiana Jones. Shows you just can’t get away with a “well I guess it’s not awful” type movie that costs a crazy amount these days 

Around 55% drop in July is still good for a 3 multiplier

I see no problem here

[baumer]

We all know that overall Indy is going to be a colossal flop. But now that that's out of the way, if a 50-55% drop is where it lands for the second weekend, that's actually pretty good.

[Borobudur]

SoF plays more like a regular action movie instead of a frontloaded cult following. The A+ cinemascore movie should come close to 40m by Sunday, which no doubt will become a success story of the summer.

Exactly. Have come to acceptance this is a huge bomb. Does not ruin my enjoyment of the film one bit. A 50-55 drop is pretty good. Could have been much worse. Although coming down from that 8.8 estimate yesterday is a disappointment.

Still no Cinemascore for Insidious? (the movie sucked)

INSIDIOUS: THE RED DOOR (2023)

[KP1025]

The Flash could go as low as #12 this weekend, while Elemental holds #4 position despite opening at the same time but $25 million lower. What a stark contrast of excellent vs terrible legs.

[ringedmortality]

Wish, Migration, and Elio are gonna keep the ball rolling with original animated movies

[AniNate]

Seems very likely Elemental makes more worldwide than Indy
