Any movie with a budget of $40 million can't be one of the biggest bombs of all time

Is Mars needs Mom still the biggest bomb of all time?

Interesting that it's the week before Labor Day and then Labor Day weekend instead of the usual thing they do which is Labor Day weekend and then the week after. If it's going to get the big "top 10 domestic" headlines it might be right on Labor Day with this expansion setup. Maybe that's why? 

This expansion also helps it to take more advantage of last summer weekdays where some families will definitely go for outing 

 

Also as DM4 is now on digitals, maybe that could help IO2. Let's see

Then it would lose $39 million dollars at the box office plus marketing. You can go to any year in the box office probably in the last 10 years and find at least one movie that's lost close to $100 million dollars.

Yep. MarvelS must have lost atleast 200 mill. Like more

Good question I'm not exactly sure to be honest with you

Mars Needs Moms worse than John Carter I think.

I think that title belongs to The Marvels now. It has a similar budget to the previous record holder John Carter, but it made even less money than that one.

Speaking of which, I think MCU 2023 in total was like -200M? Combined that with DC's movies which lost around 400M and that means a 600M net loss for live action CBMs in 2023. Holy!

 

(Though for all 2023 CBMs not just live action it's more like -270M)

Good enough 

Let's hope for good weekend holds

We need to take over TLK somehow

[HummingLemon496]

So once Deadpool finishes its run, post pandemic multiverse superhero movies domestically will be

 

No Way Home - $805M (original run)

Deadpool & Wolverine - $640M

Doctor Strange 2 - $411M

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse - $381M

 

The entry point for the non-cheating top 10 is Barbie with $636M. Inside Out 2 will change that to $653M (Jurassic World).

 

All of them except Doctor Strange 2 doubled their predecessor

Amazing that Inside Out 2 has stayed above 1m this long. This is Top Gun: Maverick or Avatar 2 like legs
