I'm gonna say GarFuriosa weekend is the winner after disaster May to that point and Bad Boys 4 does pretty good since people want to see Will back in action. Then Twisters and Deadpool both play through August.

1 Deadpool and Wolverine 380 mil
2 Despicable Me 4 - 260 mil
3 Furiosa - 250 mil
4 Twisters 240 mil
5 The Garfield Movie - 230 mil
6 Inside Out 2 220 mil
7 Bad Boys 4 - 200 mil
Planet of the Apes - 120 mil
A Quiet Place Day 1 - 110 mil
The Fall Guy - 90 mil
IF 70 mil sadly since I drafted it
Horizons - BOMB

Yeah, it's Deadpool vs Inside Out. I think if the next trailer hits Deadpool will do low 400s like Multiverse of Madness. Only reason Inside Out might do sub-350m is people trained to wait for D+.

Here are my 2003-level grosses, lol:

1. Deadpool and Wolverine $335m
2. Despicable Me 4 $295m
3. Garfield $236m
4. Inside Out 2 $216m
5. Bad Boys 4 $150m
6. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes $144m
7. A Quiet Place Day One $125m
8. IF $111m
9. The Fall Guy $105m
10. Furiosa $102m
11. Twisters $85m

Horizon Chapter 1 $35m
Horizon Chapter 2 $25m

It will be the first time in 6 years we've had a sequel to an annual winner for a year (since BP/WF). It feels like ages ago and of course has an asterisk but Bad Boys 3 won the year 2020 box office wise.

For a follow up to a $206M performing film (with great legs) could very well have done $250M this go around but TBD how much the Oscars impact his appeal to general moviegoers outside his fanbase.

Still feels like it could really surprise given lower expectations.

I think Bad Boys has peaked and will drop from the previous. Especially after Smith's slapping incident.

Twisters will be the biggest flop of the summer for sure.

IF I think will also tank but not as badly.

Yeah, I'm not feeling Twisters even though many are bullish about it.

IF looks like a missed opportunity.

Daughter defeats dad... interesting.

Yeah they can't really do a promo tour for this movie without it becoming all about the Chris Rock incident. I think Will should have made a self-defecating comedy before returning to his roots.

Agreed. A bit of a pallet cleanser and a chance to get himself back on-side. This will be interesting to track.

I think an actioner is still better than a comedy for him. I feel like an ID4 sequel will happen with him now sometime since his career needs it.
