Trying to make a Cinematic Universe in 2025 is way too late, should have just gone the Batman root for all their characters. 

I love The Batman but I find it soooooo funny how it's used as this example of how cinematic universes don't work anymore and the standalone way is better when it made less than every single MCU film released that same year except Love and Thunder. A bad Dr. Strange MCU movie still outperforms an acclaimed solo Batman. No shit DC still wants their own cinematic universe.

Are we talking about the combined totals for Deadpool and Wolverine and Twisters this weekend or the opening weekend for both Twisters and Deadpool and Wolverine combined?

 

If the latter is the case, then it should absolutely be above Barbenheimer. 

Barbenheimer + MI7 - $264M

 

Twisters could be $37M on high end. Would need Dp&W to do $227M.

 

so like

97.5+
67+
60+

225

Could be close.

Must have been that small section of 20-25 yr males too cool for comedy weighing in down.  That's why it needed more 14 yr olds.

Yeah, but I unfortunately don't think Deadpool and Wolverine will have that kind of insane Saturday growth that Twisters did. 

 

It'll probably have to settle for slightly lower than $227M, but who knows? 

 

Strong walk-up business is something I can never doubt anymore after the summer we've had.

This would be good realistic results for CBM going forward imo:

Joker: 900M+

Venom 500-600M

Cap 4: 600-700M (It ain´t making the budget back, but being a great movie is important for brand).

Thunderbolts: 650-700M 

Superman: 750-800M

F4: 700-800M

 

With Iger clamping down on budgets, and mandate that everything needs to be ready to go before shooting there is no reason the budgets for Thunderbolts and F4 shouldn´t be more than 200M. So I assume that they are that and thus those grosses are good enough. Thunderbolts is going to be the best movie easily. The people working on that are very good and I expect Feige having oversight like the old days on those movies, while television is run by someone else.

 

Cap 4 is the only one I´m really worried about. Especially if the movie isn´t great.

Canada share is more, could stay under 98. 

[cooldude97]

I wonder if Avengers 5 Is announced to Be a Avengers Vs. X-men movie tomorrow it would boost D&W Sunday or Monday

X Men: The Last Stand 

 

Or the one where they had to depower Rogue because the movie would be too easy.

Don´t know where everyone is getting Avengers vs X-Men from. Don´t think it will happen at all

Cap 4. 300-400m

Thunderbolts. 400-500m

Superman 500-600m

i don´t see how Joker drops that much. Why would it? All the other grosses are fair, tho I think it´s low. Especially F4. That movie is hyped af and its biggest problem it´s the release date. It's crowded.
