Well, after Marvels and Joker 2, it looks pretty damn good to open that big without the lead from the first film. Also it was missing a proper China release. OG Black Panther did $100M there. I think if Chadwick was alive it does $550M/$1.05B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's absolutely huge Yeah, Black Panther is a monster domestically.... It's the biggest OW of the 2020s that doesn't include a multiverse story line. Going to be interesting to see if Black Panther 3 falls from Wakanda Forever. I think a smaller opening but about the same $450M finish. The franchise hit its ceiling in 2018. Wakanda Forever performance is probably more in line in what the franchise can do on a regular basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketheavenger Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Joker 2's performance is horrendous in every way, but it's made even much worse by its budget. How in the hell can a movie like this cost nearly 200M$ to make (even accounting the salaries for Phoenix, Gaga and Phillips)? Was it that expensive getting the rights to use the songs for the musical numbers? Normally, this film shouldn't have cost a cent over 100M$.

Yeah BP2 was disappointing at the time but looking at recent CBM performances aside from DP3, $450M+ DOM without the main lead is very, very big.

No hint of spoilers so I can't say as much as I'd like but there's many assumptions I made about what the movie had to be as a musical to maaaybe justify that budget and absolutely none of it happened so I don't know where that money went.

wattage Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago Word of caution for the weekend, a storm that has been forming for the past week or so in the Gulf has finally formed enough to be a problem. Likely not huge effects to the box office this weekend but people will be starting storm prep today and tomorrow especially with it being the weekend it's a much easier time to do it than during the week. I started getting storm alerts now so just making a note of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Wakanda Forever was crap, the moment they killed off Angela Bassett’s character for no good reason. It was terrible to see her die but it was supported by plot and characterization. What I loathed were people shipping Shuri and Namor. That was over the second he murdered her MOM. No. No. No. Bad shippers! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thajdikt Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago (edited) Queen Ramonda demise is one of the best in the superhero genre imo. It does so much for Shuri’s character and I think that was desperately needed for her in the movie as a character but also for the plot. I loved how it mirrored the arc T’Challa went through in Civi War with T’Chaka passing. Really good stuff that the MCU doesn’t really do that well. It completely works in getting Shuri to take on the mantle, but also in working to resolve the conflict of the movie aswell within her wanting revenge for her mother, but ultimately going above that for the sake of her people. Stepping up and taking the void that was left from her brother. Loved it. Ryan Coogler is damn good at what he does.
