Post Ant-Man 2 is for real
Goes to show just how great the legs were, though the weak late summer slate sure helped a lot. Comes out in July 2018. My greatest hope in the world is that they somehow reconnect with Edgar.

I'll give it ~75/200m for now. Could go up if Rudd gets some great scenes in the Civil and Infinity Wars.

Post Re: Ant-Man 2 is for real
It makes sense, I guess. I mean, it made $410m worldwide, and cost $130m. And it opens in China on 16th October, so it's guaranteed at least $450m, which is enough in the black to make a sequel, and the fact that Marvel need all the solo movies, makes the decision easy.

By 2018, the Marvel brand will be much weaker.

Opening: $35m
Total: $110m

Wait, the sequel is called Ant-Man and The Wasp?

You can cut my prediction in half. ;)

That sounds about right.

Yeah it will do well. Adding Wasp wont hurt it so it should atleast match the first film's gross.

That's great news. I liked the first one and the sequel has a good shot of opening bigger but much will depend on Marvel's brand name at that time.

Nothing but potential here especially if Ant Man steals the show in the much larger CIvil War

Post Ant-Man and the Wasp predictions
It opens July 6, 2018.

Four MCU sequels increased over their predecessors, two decreased (Iron Man 2 and Age of Ultron).

I wasn't a big fan of Ant-Man, but the film had the third-best multiplier of all MCU films, only behind Guardians of the Galaxy and Iron Man. I think the character struck a chord and his scene in Civil War alone probably boosted popularity big time.

Opening weekend - $79 million

Total gross - $220 million

I'll forget my disdain for the first and predict like the rest of y'all.

Opening $85m

Total $250m

I can't believe they actually made a successful franchise out of fucking Ant-Man. Poor DC.

Ant-Man is almost as big of a mess as Suicide Squad.

Too bad Suicide Squad wasn't successful! Poor DC.

Ant-Man was great in Civil War, but it kind of proves that he's a supporting character at best because his solo film wasn't good. Cutting his screen time by adding the Wasp may improve it. Let's see.

Ant-Man got a good introduction to the few who didn't knew the character before. I hope this builds on that.

Post Re: Ant-Man and the Wasp predictions
I think this will increase. Low $200m's sounds about right.

Interestingly this will be out after Infinity War so there may be added interest pending how that film is received and where it leaves the MCU by the end of it.

Yeah a hair above $200m sounds about right for this.

Post Re: Ant-Man and the Wasp predictions
I thought that was a really fun trailer, actually - much more memorable than anything in the marketing for the first Ant-Man. I've been unsure how to predict this, especially because it comes pretty shortly after an insane run of mega-blockbusters that could end up exhausting the market - we could end up having five $120+ million openers in the span of eight weeks. But this will probably be the last real four-quadrant movie of the summer, which we've seen the last two summers through Spider-Man and Suicide Squad can be a real benefit to legs.

Opening: $87.7 million
Total: $251.7 million (2.87)
