1. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever 650m
2. Avatar 2 550m
3. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness 450m
4 Spider Man: Across the Spider-Verse Part One 400m

Is Top Gun really gonna be an uber smash? Idk maybe I'm just underestimating its popularity but I highly doubt it'll do more than like NTTD.

I really feel like Black Panther is moving but yeah I think it's between that and Avatar for #1 unless Doctor Strange ends up being crazy hyped like No Way Home.

I think your top 8 films look about right,

I'll go with
1. Avatar 2
2. Black Panther 2
3. Doctor Strange 2
4. The Batman
5. Thor 4
6. Jurassic World 3
7. Aquaman 2
8. Lightyear
9. Across the Spider-Verse Part 1
10. The Flash

They should move either Aquaman or Flash to 2023, having them so close together isn't a good idea.

Black Panther ranked Fandango's most anticipated list. Think it's the frontrunner and can see it do $700M+. Will act as a tribute and is an instant zeitgeist movie.

I picked Thor in the draft cause it seemed like the safest bet. Assuming it has the Guardians in it for a decent chunk then it should have a healthy improvement on Ragnarok. Strange got a major bump from Spider-Man though, which I was not counting on.

1. Doctor Strange - $175M opening / $450-500M
2. Thor - $150M opening / $400-450M
3. Batman - $150M / $350M
4. Jurassic World - $130M / $302M
5. Aquaman - $70M / $300M
6. Across the Spiderverse - $90M / $250M
7. Flashpoint - $90M / $215M
8. Uncharted - $70M / $180M
9. Mission Impossible - $60M / $170M
10. Lightyear - $45M / $160M

Probably way off on some of these. Lightyear in particular is very hard to nail down. In a normal year I'd have it at about $300M but family films have been way down during the Pandemic Era. If Turning Red flops then you can bet there will be a very quick turnaround for the Disney Plus release on all their animated projects going forward.

Top Gun is more likely to flop than go over 200 imo

I drafted Black Adam pretty high, The Rock and superhero movie is a great combination

Turning Red will do well over 100m domestic and 300m WW if they don’t F it over with a d&d release on streaming.

Regardless, Lightyear will do way better.

I feel like Avatar 2 could flop badly relative to expectations (like, $200m total) especially if it faces COVID: Episode IX

It will have been 13 years....does anyone care anymore?

Avatar 2 has the biggest range ever. It could beat the Force Awakens or make 250 mil.

There will need to be something big to draw people in. And I don't know what they could be? What's the next step in filmmaking or revolutionary effects? Is the sequel (or sequels) going to feature never-before-seen or new technology not seen in films so far?

Simply being the "sequel to Avatar, the $2 billion movie!" isn't going to cut it, I don't think, because the original, while enjoyed by most people, isn't exactly "loved" or remembered as a classic film by many. I've heard people over the years say stuff along the lines of, "yeah, Avatar is a good movie", but that's a pretty generic response for most movies, really.

Eh... never underestimate James Cameron lol. I think it'll do big numbers for curiosity and it's even been enough time that nostalgia may even be a factor lol

If it's same ol same ol though I don't know about the other 3 they're aupposed to release
