PunisherPunisherPunisher Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 I liked the start of it, could have done with more action during the middle stages and ended well with plenty of action Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 (edited) Travis Scott Rented Out Two Movie Theaters For Kids To Watch 'Black Panther' Quote Hit rapper Travis Scott rented two theaters for kids to see Marvel Studios' Black Panther on its opening weekend. The screenings were held at the AMC Fountains 18 theater in Stafford, Texas, Saturday afternoon. Scott is included on Black Panther: The Album, featuring on Kendrick Lamar's "Big Shot." Rapper and actor T.I., part of the Marvel family for his work on the Ant-Man franchise, teamed up with Walmart for a free Black Panther screening hosted in Atlanta. Wimbledon winner Serena Williams and Top Dawg Entertainment also helped young fans and their families see Black Panther, partnering with theaters for their own separate screenings. Academy Award winner Octavia Spencer pledged to buy out a Mississippi theater "in an underserved community there to ensure that all our brown children can see themselves as a superhero." That's a lot of super good will going on so kids can enjoy this movie. Edited February 18, 2018 by Bosco685 Unca Ben and zuckuss2003 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 ‘Black Panther’ Rips Apart Box Office Records: 3-Day Opening Rises To $194M+; 4-Day At $223M+ Quote Disney/Marvel’s Black Panther is even more ferocious than ever imagined. Late night estimates (not from Disney) indicate that T’Challa is headed to $194M over three-days after a super Saturday night between $66.8M-$68M which is only 11% down from Friday on the high-end. Also if you back out $25.2M Thursday previews from Friday’s $76.4M, Saturday’s business is still technically +33%. So that means business for Black Panther wasn’t front-loaded. Four-day figures remain a wild forecast for many analysts: They’re certain that Black Panther is expected to clear $220M, but he could fly as high as $230M. Projections at this minute are averaging around $223M. Over three-days, Black Panther now beats Avengers: Age of Ultron‘s 3-day number of $191.2M for the fifth best opening of all-time behind Avengers ($207.4M). On a four-day basis, it will also beat Ultron ($204.4M), but it might kick Avengers 4-day haul as well ($226.3M). It’s summer box office records during the second month of the year. Ryan Coogler went up to his hometown of Oakland on Thursday night to surprise Black Panther fans at previews while Chadwick Boseman, Coogler, Marvel boss Kevin Feige, EP Louis D’Esposito and the Marvel gang surprised fans at the Cinemark LA and other theaters in town on Friday night.

paperheart Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 if BP can just match DP's 2.4x 4 day opening, it safely clears $500MM US. i didn't think AIG would do $500MM US. truly insane but deserved #'s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted February 18, 2018 Author Share Posted February 18, 2018 Based on Saturday estimates, the numbers are looking extremely strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsilverjanet Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 Is this a movie with repeat viewings? I find it interesting that many of the marvel fans from the boards who usually see their movies (big distinction) haven’t posted their comments or reviews greggy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatsby77 Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 It's insane to me that this film will essentially match in a weekend the entire domestic runs of the first Captain America and Thor films. comic_memories 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read a few articles where this is tracking higher right now than Last Jedi in some places. I don't know if that will continue, but this has to be the biggest surprise since Deadpool. I don't think anyone thought it be this big. I think the consensus was Doctor Strange numbers. So I guess we will know more in a few weeks were it's on track to land. comic_memories and 1950's war comics 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if that passion will cross over to the comic? If those celebrities were aware of the importance of the book in pop culture I'm willing to bet you'd see an incredible demand with some of BP books as well as increased sales with current runs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
