It's got a pretty clear path until Wrinkle in Time, what say you?

Feb 20th- Annihilation and Game Night
Feb 27th- Death Wish and Red Sparrow
March 6th- Wrinkle in Time, Gringo, Strangers: Prey at Night

I could see Red Sparrow breaking out, but not to the $40+ mil it may/will need to dethrone BP.

It’ll stay #1 until A Wrinkle InTime opens March 9th

Agreed, even though Wrinkle appears to be tracking softly.

Wrinkle should be good for a $50m weekend. But Black Panther should still be in the $25-30m range that weekend so there is a chance it holds. Tomb Raider and Pacific Rim aren’t guaranteed to open over $20m either, so it could get out of control.

Yeah, 3 weeks. A Wrinkle in Time will attract a lot of the black fellas and females that will be propping up Black Panther week-in/week-out, and by that time it will be earning $28-40m (4th weekend), so I think Oprah can manage that. Though I'd put some of my money on it staying at #1 for 4 weeks. Maybe I'd go for a 70-30 split here. I kind of also see AWiT disappointing with just high teens/low 20s. It does look like dog shit.

Until AWIT sounds about right unless that one out right flops. I still have no idea what that movie is going to do, but surely it can't be less than $20M right?

AWIT looks retarded tbh

3 weeks yes.

Yeah I don't think Wrinkle opens below 30m, which Black Panther will be below by week 4.

A Wrinkle in Oprah is going to bomb so it might even be #1 on that weekend

Yeah, our polling numbers are weak relative to general expectations. Been on a downward trend for two weeks.

I'm thinking might have a second weekend drop of <40%

That’s not good for my draft pick. Hope it surprise & does 80m OW lol I needs it

Guardians was @ $21m on week 4. Civil War was $15m. Wonder Woman did $25m.


I don't see Wrinkle doing less than $25-30m even if its weaker than expected.

Not much reaction for WnT trailer in the 3 BP showings I've been to. I think it's going to come down to its weekend drops if it follow this path it might make it to 5 weeks
Week 2- 100m
Week 3- 50m
Week 4- 30m

Post subject:  Re: How long will the King Reign?

A lot of black movies are very frontloaded so that could cause a bigger than usual drop for BP.

Post subject:  Re: How long will the King Reign?

A Wrinkle In Time will have some work to do. BP might still be around $40m by the time it comes out.

Post subject:  Re: How long will the King Reign?

People are underestimating how big BP could drop in the 2nd weekend. It could drop two thirds.

Author:  Jack Sparrow [ Mon Feb 19, 2018 12:06 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: How long will the King Reign?

^Agreed. With the frontloading of MCU, great reviews and nostalgia of first black superhero movie this could easily drop harder. This isn't WW type of situation in terms of OW. There isn't too much room for it to expand audience week after week. A lot of casual audience saw it on OW itself.

It could, but traditonally super-breakouts have soft drops on the second as they draw in people who wouldn’t have otherwise seen it.

Post subject:  Re: How long will the King Reign?

There's a reason MCU movies are getting frontloaded with almost each movie.

Author:  Dil [ Mon Feb 19, 2018 1:36 pm ]
Post subject:  Re: How long will the King Reign?

Frontloading is definitely a factor, but the WOM/EVENT STATUS for this seems to very much be on par with the first Avengers. This has even weaker competition than that movie faced during the Summer, and it will likely stay that way until IW.

Ragnarok only dropped 53%. I’m gonna predict that Black Panther will end up with $105mish, but I wouldn’t be too surprised by $110m+ for second all time. Even with the holiday this is gonna play so well until the onslaught of competition in March.

Black men aren't going to be watching A Wrinkle in Time.
