I hoped Obon would have meant better legs. So it looks like 25 mill finish for now?

SMH 2nd day nearly 30% drop, I said it'll be frontloaded

DM3 down less than 10% and +44% from last week

How much do you think we are looking from Japan? If it makes something around $25m-$40m, it'd be more than enough.

$25M max.

How much further do you think Spidey can go without Japan or China OS? Could it get to around $390m without Japan/China? 

[ZattMurdock]

Hmm, wait a minute. How this compares with PotC5 again? PotC started with $9m and it's getting close to $40m. Why Homecoming couldn't pull off something similar? Japan seems very leggy.

I'm no Japan expert. I know Olive and corpse are when it comes to box office. With that said, Homecoming from what I'm understanding did $3m OD, then it's with a nearly 30% drop would be around $2.1m Sat, if it manages to make $1.5m Sun, that would be around $6.5m. I'd argue that Spidey is one of the few western superheroes that they love, so if TASM2 went from $4.1m to $30m, I'm not sure how Homecoming couldn't have a shot at topping that.

How is POTC5 holding up during Obon Holiday? $60m total possible?
