Deadpool 2 - $18.6m

About 33% higher than the first, which is expected with more rush out factor. Should lock up at least a $130+ mil start.

That's pretty damn good.

Very interested to see how this holds.

$150m in play but not guaranteed.

Great number. Hoping it tops $150m over 3-day.

Thanks, I just tried to do the quick math in my head and figured "12+6=18, and since 6 is 1/3 of 18, that's a 33% increase!"

Pretty good start. Should cross double digits.

Deadline has DP2 at 50-52 mil Friday and 130m+ for the weekend. Pretty amazing I hope it gets to 140m. Also amazing IW 31-32m for the weekend and only a 48-50% drop.

If IW avoids a 50% drop, it will probably beat Black Panther.

Post subject:  Re: Thursday #'s/Previews

That's indeed great for both MCU movies. If IW holds that well then next weekend it's fellow Disney movie over MD weekend. Should be good for $700m total.

Was DP2 not expected to increase on the original's opening?

I haven't been following the tracking/predictions.

I'd say it was pretty split. Because the first broke out so huge on its OW some thought it would naturally decline. But! it had decent legs, so an increase over the first was also just as likely, even with seemingly decreased buzz.

Even if it does I don't see it happening. From here on out it's just a gauntlet of big movies. (pun intended)

RTH has DP2 at 52-55mil. IW 6.5

When I get paid to post on this site, I'll try harder.

55m OD would be strong though I also expect it to be quite frontloaded. Not assured 300m even with a 55m OD even if it is likely.


38 films have had an OD of $46+ mil. 4 have missed $300 mil. (twilight x3, HP:DH1)

$52m would be great for DP2 and it should easily get past $300m mark with that number. I don't think it will be as frontloaded (maybe more than the first but that's expected) because of lower buzz.

IW's $6.5m would mean that it drops bigger than 50%
