That was a problem with the DCEU pretty much since the day after Man of Steel released. Gatsby77 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 Today when actual results are released around 10:30 AM EST "Be less than $100M domestic...be less than $100M domestic..." Or as the average person would perceive it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatsby77 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 ? I said what I said. Last week, Luiz Fernando said it wouldn't hit $100M domestic before Jan. 5th - meaning he expected it to cross that line on Jan. 5th. I noted, or before "Jan. 6th or Jan. 7th" - meaning it was now likely to cross the $100M domestic mark on Jan. 7th - but not before. #ReadingIsFundamental Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatsby77 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Why this matters? Our guy Luiz seems to be overestimating the film's legs. Expecting it to cross $100M domestic on Friday, only to see it do so on Sunday instead = not a great look. Especially when there's a bunch of new releases dropping this Friday, including The Beekeeper and the Mean Girls remake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 So it matters because someone wants to be able to say only their box office statements are factual. Got it! Meanwhile... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Gunn took the time to tamper with its story and then announced it was not part of the go-forward DCU. So limited marketing coverage.

Gatsby77 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Let's all raise a glass to today's being this film's last $1 million day domestically. And pour one out for its making in its first 3 weeks what, once upon a time, Suicide Squad made in its first 2 days some 8 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimik Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 So Aquaman 2 should top $400M which makes it a success in the current environment. looks like the Beekeeper is a flop (Statham fatigue) , and Mean Girls might barely beat out the non-inflation adjusted opening weekend of the first movie. Maybe Aquaman 2 will have more legs than expected as those two should drop hard next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
