JW looks locked for 900m+ overseas and 500m+ domestic. So yeah.

The irony for Lecter is that it's his beloved Jurassic Park franchise that obliterated his club lol. I'm sure he doesn't mind at all.

Indeed. Besides, I'll wait on the obliterated part until it actually happens.

JW made a lot of money in China this weekend that didn't happen for FF7. I don't think F7 is guaranteed to be toppled right now.

Just from domestic holdovers + current worldwide this is set for $1.3 B. Add in more worldwide + Japan and it seems likely to do $1.6 B.

Japan performances for Jurassic Park franchise:

JP1: $120 m (19% of total overseas gross)
JP2: $86 m (22% of total overseas gross)
JP3: $41 m (21.9% of total oversea gross)

Japan has always been a big boost for Jurassic Park. I think $100 m + is definitely possible from there even with currency exchange.

It took three years for The Avengers to be (barely) beaten worldwide. I expect Furious 7 to be beaten in 2.5 years months by Avatar 2 Jurassic World. Not that unrealistic. This is all under the assumption that Avatar 2 Jurassic World hits in 2017 $1.6 B worldwide.

Yeah this is really surprising. I did expect JW to cross $1b but not this quick and topping the mark by such big number. Let's see how high it goes in OS total. With Japan being the only bigger market left for opening, I don't see it topping AoU's OS total just yet.

LOL.

I should just change "worldwide" to "oversesas". Jurassic World won't hit $1.1 billion OS.

Yep, I am banking on that. Furious 7 will probably finish just slightly ahead of The Avengers worldwide, with around $1.52 billion. Age of Ultron probably won't get more than $1.4-1.45 billion. I don't think The Force Awakens will hit $1.5 billion. Looking at 2016, I don't really see a single $1.5 billion grosser. 2017 Furious 8 and Star Wars Episode VIII will have a shot, but I think both will slightly miss and, well, by the end of 2017 Avatar 2 will get there. Even if it drops everywhere, it will still be good for $1.5+ billion worldwide without breaking a sweat.

Kind of insane, yes, but I think Furious 7 will be the 3rd-highest-grossing movie worldwide for a couple of years.

And even IF Star Wars dethrones it worldwide, I am absolutely positive that it will not beat its overseas gross of almost $1.2 billion.


BUMP! Well as of today, Fast 7 was dethroned by Jurassic World! We didn't have to wait until December 2017 (2.5 years), it happened in under 2 months! Jurassic World looks good for $1.6 B now!

4 Jurassic World Uni. $1,513.5 $611.2 40.4% $902.3 59.6% 2015
5 Furious 7 Uni. $1,511.7 $351.0 23.2% $1,160.7 76.8% 2015

They don't call Lecter "Teflon" for nothing.

Nothing sticks.

Alright what will be the next movie to beat JW's WW total? Its definitely not making another $250m+ OS to beat FF7's OS total.....unless it has a Frozen type of run in Japan.

SW7's $1b OS total will still depend a lot on China total. JW got $228m from China and I feel its still a big ask though topping Avatar in states will only help its potential in China.

Star Wars has already started their marketing in China. I get the sense that it will be huge. I have never seen marketing this early.
