Neither Neighbors 2 nor The Conjuring 2 are locks. Far from it. Chances are better for Kung Fu Panda 3, Zootopia (which is a lock) and Inferno.

I kept them there because the originals did so well. A big drop can still get them to $100m. I was also unsure of that so I guess best is to move them out to candidates.

If Neighbors drops similar to Ted 2 or Horrble Bosses 2, it is not making $100 million. If The Conjuring 2 drops similar to The Ring Two, it won't make $100 million. All very valid examples of how this can go.

Divergent, Huntsman and Tarzan are not locks.

The BFG and Trolls aren't locks either.

Kung Fu Panda 3, and Zootopia are locks. Kung Fu Panda is going to be the only kids film in February, and Zootopia is the only one in March.

These, The BFG, and Trolls. I don't think any of those 5 are locks for 100M.

Kung Fu Panda 3 and Zootopia are certainly locks.

I would like to think 10 Cloverfield Lane, Jack Reacher 2, Bad Santa 2, and Assassin's Creed are all candidates.

I have updated the list to take out those 5 movies from locks.

I will leave KFP3 and Zootopia as candidates even though I do believe they will get to this mark.

I think The BFG is a lock, but whatevs.

I think Ghostbusters is a lock.

Aside from SW7 and TR that made $100m this year it seems it would be KFP3 or Deadpool to become the first 2016 movie to be #1.

Gambit has been moved off the 2016 schedule, so I'd replace it with The Magnificent Seven. You should probably consider a few Oscar bait films: Sully , Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, and Silence (Scorsese film) There are always a few that do pretty well.

Where did you find that news?

Post subject:  Re: $100m+ movies of 2016

The Oscar bait's are so unpredictable. I just can't put all of them in there. That would be like putting the half of the schedule from October to December in the Candidate list. Let's just be surprised with a few that get added in this list.

With RA2 slowing down and KFP3 chasing this mark slowly it could very well be the case that Deadpool opens HUGE and sneaks to become the first movie of 2016 above this mark (ofcourse SW7 and Revenant have both reached this mark in 2016).

Deadpool cuts Panda down to size as he becomes the first 100 million movie of 2016.
$100 million movies of 2016
Rank - Movie - Number of days to reach the mark - Date on which they reached the mark
1. Deadpool- 3 - February 14
2. Kung Fu Panda 3- 18 - February 15

Deadpool was the rare blockbuster to double expectations, with one of the top debuts ever for an original film, and the largest R rated debut by a huge margin. It creamed the President's Day, Valentine's Day and February day/weekend records, all while being a once thought obscure adaptation of a not too well known comic book character. Well that was certainly proven wrong. Kung Fu Panda 3 was unable to reverse the downward trajectory of the franchise despite being just as well reviewed as the first two. It has had solid holding power, but it is unlikely to gross more than 140 million by the end of its run.

Upcoming Films Zootopia

Leaving the List Ride Along 2, How to Be Single, Zoolander 2

Good call Jack Sparrow - the monster opening helped DP beat out KFP by a day.

Looks like DP will get into first of almost all the lists if it gets past $300m.

Upcoming Films Batman V Superman

So Divergent series won't see a third movie in this list. BvS should get in this list by 2 days.

Strike out movies that came out and aren't potential $100m+ grossers anymore (Cloverfield, Divergent...).

Batman V Superman battle past $100m
$100 million movies of 2016
Rank - Movie - Number of days to reach the mark - Date on which they reached the mark
1. Deadpool- 3 - February 14
2. Kung Fu Panda 3- 18 - February 15
3. Zootopia - 8 - March 11
4. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice - 2 - March 26

Batman V Superman fights past a lot of factors but still breezes past the $100m in just 2 days.

Upcoming Films The Boss, The Jungle Book

While not quite there with 2013 this is still a decent start for 2016 in this list. It should get 6 or maybe even 7 movies till April release calender.

Post subject:  Re: $100m+ movies of 2016

The way things are shaping The Boss seems like it will miss the mark and The Jungle Book could reach this in 5 to 6 days.

The Jungle Book spirals past $100m
$100 million movies of 2016

3. Zootopia - 8 - March 11
4. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice - 2 - March 26
5. The Jungle Book - 3 - April 17

The Jungle Book opened HUGE and clawed past $100m in just 3 days.

Upcoming Films The Huntsman: Winter's War, Captain America: Civil War

I don't see Huntsman getting into this list but whatever. It should be Civil War next to enter this list.
