Re: Endgame Friday Official Estimate: Mother of Thanos
Officially, hands down, the most anticipated film of all time to this point; this is a record that will last for a very long time.
Star Wars isn't coming remotely close to this.

Re: Endgame Friday Official Estimate: Mother of Thanos
This really came at the very end of huge openers calming down. SW main trilogy is ending and I don't see any franchise getting close to this record anytime in next 5 years. All the HUGE openers are opening this year anyways

Insanity. A little less than CM's opening.
100m Saturday should happen. Jesus.

I don't know why people don't think another MCU film COULD do these numbers. I agree it isn't certain and they'd have to do a really good job of building that event film like they did with this.
But the franchise still has BP (700m+ grosser), CM (400m+ grosser), SM (whose next film I htink will break 400m+), and Guardians (whose next film will do 400m+).
Endgame wasn't focused on these characters/brands at all and it did this. If the next "finale" event film focuses on these brands, there's no reason to think that the potential for that film can't match Endgame (particularly with whatever years of inflation).
It won't be happening in the next four years for sure but people are crazy to think that it can't be stopped by another MCU film.
Now, outside MCU, it is pretty damn impossible until inflation catches up.
It won't be in just 4 years that MCU will get this buzz but yes they certainly do have a chance.

The $153M number is only an estimate from Gitesh. An insider on BOT and Deadline are both saying its actually closer to $157-$159M. Actually, Deadline just updated it to $158.3M.

WB only choice to be shrewd AF.
Hire JJ Abrams, cast Michael B Jordon as Superman.
Reeve's Batman must set up showdown with Phoenix Joker.
Do it

Guardians/ SW combo is in the mix.

You need to talk to Patton Oswalt.

Re: Endgame Friday Official Estimate: Mother of Thanos
Met him, cool guy. But seriously once the trilogy is up, they have to be eyeing some sort of crossover. I mean simply Why the fuck not. It is Guardians of the GALAXY after all. All you have to do is go to a time not so long ago.

I agree that if Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Spiderman take over the series, X-Men are involved, etc. you could build up another massive event film one day. But the whole wiping out half the characters cliffhanger was the genius move here.
Re: Endgame Friday Official Estimate: Mother of Thanos
Spider-Man Far From Home is going to benefit from this in a big way.
400+

Re: Endgame Friday Official Estimate: Mother of Thanos
I remember how big a deal 80m opening days were and still are. $150m+ ODs?? Jfkfkfnfk
I just can't imagine anything in the next 10 years doing these types of numbers. Whenever we get to the next Avengers movie that one will probably open above IW but at these levels? I doubt it.

It's so extra! Seeing this on Monday.
This feels like a once in a decade thing but who knows.

Re: Endgame Friday Official Estimate: Mother of Thanos
ALOT of people aren’t able to see it this weekend due to sellouts. They will absolutely need another ad campaign Monday-Wednesday to entice the casual audience to try again. Is $950m possible????
This is the biggest boxoffice moment in all my 25 years of following the boxoffice. Right here. Right now. Where were you when Endgame dropped. That’s what your grandkids will ask you
