It's truly crazy Flash had a worse multiplier than Quantumania, and in summer no less. It's just a combination of so many factors that led to its performance (DC announcing reboot kinda and just not in a safe space, Ezra, apathy, etc)

Elemental actually managed to save face and isn't a complete disaster + indicates Pixar is still a viable brand if they just manage to keep costs down a bit.

Flash is a straight up catastrophe and one of the worst bombs ever especially considering it had Batman in it. A multi-franchise/career killer too (final nail in the coffin for old version of DC, kills any chance at a future solo Flash movie or spin offs in the next decade or longer, kills any chance of Keaton Batman appearing again, kills Ezra Miller's film career for good).

The Flash is already the 16th highest grossing movie of the year (will be 17th when Oppenheimer passes) and it's only late July. Interestingly, I looked at where its 107 million would rank on the 2022 list, and it would've also been 16th. However, in 2019 it would've been 29th. 2022 was such a stratified year in terms of lack of huge blockbusters but lack of 100 and 200 million films.

yeeeeah...this was not close LOL


easy indeed, though...even I didn't anticipate this being this much of a slaughter

Barbi+OPPY 2nd weekend basically outgrossed OW of Flash, Elemental, and even MI7 combined

How big was Barbenheimer?

July 2023 Gross: $1,326,874,622! Biggest July since 2016!

Here are the biggest months of all time:

1 July, 2011 $1,394,775,988 192
2 July, 2016 $1,370,974,883 181
3 July, 2013 $1,370,146,592 178
4 July, 2023 $1,326,874,622 83


1 day left! I approximated Monday grosses based on the 3day tally drop this weekend vs last weekend (-32.2%). Last Monday made $48,029,634 so let's approximate $32.55M Monday.

That would finish the month with $1,359.4 B, just 2.5% below the biggest month ever. If we had stronger June holdovers almost certainly could have been the biggest month of all time!

Iconic combo. Their "holdover" weekend is at $208,577,932. That would be #2 biggest weekend gross of the year and largest other than Barbenheimer OW since Jul 8-10, 2022 when Thor led the weekend with $237,265,821 total grosses.
