True, but I'd say the hype/buzz for BP is much higher than any of those movies as of right now. Granted that doesn't always translate to HUGE box-office numbers, but the potential is definitely there, especially with the goodwill Marvel has built up with their almost perfect track record, and what's likely to be strong reviews.

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
I'll have to put it down to not being in the US then, because I don't see the hype.

I know a lot of comic book movies have done well, but 325m is still a lot.

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
Weird they didn't play this trailer with Star Wars, but I guess they just wanted Inifnity War attached to that...
I'm sure hype will build when we're a month away.

Just theoretically spitballing here, but if every African American in the U.S. bought a ticket, it would make about 315 million.

Still not sure 200 is happening. This doesn't look good or really accessible. 70/ 190

Yes those OS numbers are a bit too high even if it makes that much domestically. true international audience hate movies with majority black cast (especially Asians) so I'll adjust my prediction. 140m OW 350m Dom 750-800m WW

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
Why would as black panther movie out open and outgross the spider-man & iron man team up?
Why would a Thor movie out open and outgross the first justice league movie?

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
I definitely see another culture phenomenon ala Wonder Woman but with a bigger OW (140m-160m).

$325m+ is looking not just possible but likely now.

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
Awesome news, but people who think this means it actually has a chance at beating Civil War's opening weekend need to slow down a bit, because that is not what's actually being reported. We need to remember that CW was two years ago and Marvel films have only gotten more pre-sales heavy over the years. I even remember multiple outlets reporting that at that time CW was selling better than Ultron which combined with those great reviews is what lead to a lot of us predicting $200M+ OW. I don't want to make that mistake again, however I do believe that unlike CW or Ultron Black Panther could potentially have solid walk-ups from the non Marvel fans. Like I said before this is going to be HUGE with the GA/casual fans.

Yeah, this is definitely happening. I think the question now is, over/under Deadpool?

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
$300m plus is looking very good. Can't see it doing any less. Target is indeed Deadpool for both OW and total.

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
I really don't get the hype for this.
Maybe it's because I'm outside America?
Looks like the same Marvel crap again, except this time with black people.
If this is going to be people's standard of quality, it's pretty fucking low and pretty damning of the times we live in.
Wonder Woman, another lauded film, was especially awful. Same old dreck we've seen before except a woman's in it.
I've long suspected that reviews are good for superhero movies because of an American bias and it's true. Maybe it's Disney's pressure- as is now coming to light their dubious journalistic practices, but whatever it is, bad for the future unless people stop being such automatons and demand a higher standard.

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
I just bought my advance ticket for 2D IMAX. I'm not a superhero fanboy by any stretch of the imagination, but the sci-fi/fantasy vibe in the trailer reminded me of Thor. Also, these peripheral characters in their origin stories (qv Ant-Man) are usually better than the mainline Marvel products.

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
I know this hype is based off the extreme opening of Thor Ragnarok but this is still a "origin story". It still is based on a fairly new character to the universe. It still is a black marvel superhero and there's no extra marvel hero to help draw in the general folks. Yes the hype is here but I just can't see this out opening Thor 3. Don't get me wrong, I'm gonna get my ticket and see this but I'm still out.

Re: Black Panther 325m+ club
The hype for this movie is already bigger than the original Guardians of the Galaxy, Ant-Man, in Doctor Strange. I have a feeling that black panther being a big part of civil war is was increasing height as well. I think it was smart to introduce his character in Civil War and then do a standalone film.
