with an incoming big drop off in china, I don’t see how the Marvels does anything over $600M. The holidays are the only thing that’s going to save it’s face. 

 

$250M dom / $30M china / $250M OS 

 

Oppenheimer > The Marvels

 

Dudes be rocking hard

Woah....Charlie says 44.5-45M Sunday for Barbie...amazing Sunday hold. Guess this is not as frontloaded as what some other claimed earlier in this thread. Saturday not increasing much from Friday probably mostly had to do with capacity issues

That’s an incredible Sunday number for Barbie.

Wild number for Barbie. WB playing it ridiculously safe because they want more headlines tomorrow? Lol Will be very interesting to see the numbers going forward.

Where the pay it forward at

That is nuts for sure. That said its not a surprise. It was capacity constrained in big markets and there would be no drop in those markets. I assume smaller markets/canada also had a great day. 

[Bob Train]

If Barbie and Oppenheimer could combined for about 244m, that would be quite splendid.

[Mojoguy]

But... but you guys told me Barbie was a flop after the Sat number came in!?

[Bob Train]

WB lowballed Sunday by 8m. That's Jurassic World tier.

Hooooooly crap, excellent hold from Oppy but truly a gobsmacking hold from Barbie. Also, for those keeping track at home, if these estimates hold water, Oppy will have grossed exactly half of Barbie's dom OW 

[Ororo Munroe]

I recall when WB was off by 5M with BvS but in the other direction. I wasn't around then but I wonder if that made them more cautious when it comes to big movies like this. 

[BoxOfficeZ]

That's an insane Sunday hold for Barbie.

Here in Canada, both Barbie and Oppy are already selling quite briskly throughout the week and into next weekend. There was definitely not enough capacity this weekend which should lead to some good holds this coming week.

I did not. I said TDK did something similar on Saturday and then had an amazing Sunday hold. Barbie did even better. Looks like a 6.5% drop, which is amazing! 

[Ryan Reynolds]

Barbie can try to top Maverick's 2nd weekend drop

The actual fuck?!? Ok, capacity must have 100% been the issue with the Sat # after all. Looks like 600m+ is back on the menu…

Imax would've given Barbie the WB record. Wow.
