The only way the new Transformers film is over three hours long is if Bay has final cut on the project..., and I seriously doubt that Paramount would give Bay final cut on that film even if he did have them over a barrel when cutting his deal to direct the fifth film.

Wonder Woman's Chinese opening seems to be heading for the $25-30M range.

Given that WB had Wanda and Tencent in their corner for Wonder Woman (they even came onboard as co-fi partners on the film) I'm not sure how good a number this is.

The others are really long too. This wouldn't be shocking.

boxoffice.com predictions are in: http://pro.boxoffice.com/weekend-forecast-wonder-woman-captain-underpants/

Wonder Woman: $111M
Captain Underpants: $29.5M
Pirates 5: $20.15M

That'd be a 68% drop for Pirates, which would be something.

Travis Knight directing?

Is it stop-motion?

Spoiler

I'd watch that.

Ahh, spin-offs.

Good for what ails you.

Unless, in Paramount's case, your ailment is hemorrhaging cash.

At this point, I honestly have no idea what to expect from Wonder Woman, but hope great RT and WOM propels it to the heavens!

I'm sticking with my lofty (some would say insane) prediction.

I'm sticking with my lofty (some would say insane) prediction.

And what is that?

 

[Busty]

And what is that?

OW similar to Man Of Steel but finishing it's North American run in the same ballpark as the first two Hunger Games films.

Spoiler

$400m give or take.

If it did MOS opening weekend that would be great. But damn I have to admit that is a bit lofty. I thought 100 million would be a stretch. I'd say 85 million with reviews and WOM bumping that up to maybe over 90.

But I have no idea what to expect. It'll be interesting to see how it performs on the weekdays since it's Summer for a lot of people.

I mean, at least you admit it's lofty.

Iron Man 3, fresh off the Avengers high, and Civil War both made just under $410m domestically. Guardians 2 will be at about $355m after this weekend and should start winding down after that.

Guess it's possible for Wonder Woman to end up in the top 10 if it doesn't drop by much anymore but I'm guessing it will just miss it.

I don't think it falls below 90% at this point but I could be wrong.

I have no idea what to believe anymore.

 

[Boke1879]

I have no idea what to believe anymore.

Guess it's somewhere in between.

 

[ZeoVGM]

It will have a $99.9m opening weekend.

 

[PhoncipleBone]

It will have a $99.9m opening weekend.

Just enough to miss $100m

 

[Penguin]

I'm gonna go with a modest 85 million

Seems like a safe, sound number

Not a resounding success, but enough to be in the conversation

Thinking it misses $100m as well, but still puts up a strong as hell opening. Also anticipate best DCCU legs yet.

 

[Toa TAK]

Sometimes you can't let facts and data get in the way of a good prediction. Sometimes you gotta have faith.

I'll bet that Wonder Woman makes at least $100 million for its opening weekend.

 

[BronsonLee]

103.1 million dollars with underreported estimates but an incredible 18% hold on Sunday actuals wow this is really specific let's go in

 

[Prompto]

91.4 million opening weekend for Wonder Woman

Count on it

Which boxofficeGAFers are seeing it this weekend? I know BronsonLee and I are, but I need to know who else to plug into my slide/bump algorithm.

My man.

Meeee

 

[jon bones]

The real question is with Wonder Woman looking like it might actually be a good movie, will fans of the previous DC movies hate it?

i mean it does sound like it hits a lot of the same notes i like about the mcu movies

Eh, like most said closer to Donner/Indiana Jones in spirit.

Granted, I also like the MCU

Is Slayven? If so, that's all the data you need. Movie might be pulled from theaters by Sunday.

That's actually what I went with as well with highest domestic total in the DCCU. Tickets bought for Saturday, Dolby Cinema baby!

Best DCEU legs yet has to be the least impressive milestone a film could aim for. DCEU legs are so bad that we were shocked by Suicide Squad's "great" rebound to a 2.43x OW multiplier.

I am going tomorrow at 7pm.

Movie cancelled before release somehow

BROTHERRRRRRR, take the kids

 

[broncobuster]

Need to know before I give my estimate. It'd drop it from a Shrek 2 to Shrek 4. Hoping it hits Shrek 3, though.

Three is a bit young for the DC murderverse. She can have a few more years of innocence before I have to explain Grandma's peach tea.

 

[Slayven]

I will probably not see WW in theaters

Fair point - apparently WW is pretty family friendly though, thankfully. BvS in particular was too foul for no reason

I will probably not see WW in theaters

We are saved.

What if we said there was a secret Superboy reference in it?

Hmm, the algorithm is suggesting a $250M OW.

Probably watching Napping Princess this weekend and Wonder Woman next Tuesday.

Would you see Man of Steel 2 in theatres if they did the rest of the Death of Superman storyline?

That would be awesome! As long as it's $100m I'm happy, anything over that is icing on the cake.

 

[Rumblebones]

I liked Baywatch. I think critics woulda been a bit more forgiving if not for some of the more raunchier attempts at comedy. Rock acting up like that is funnier than anything in the film.

I would get a superboy jacket made for the premiere
