Deadline estimated $3.8MM weekend keeps Eternals run rate at 19% below Thor:DW but T:DW did $4MM after the new year; Eternals will be on Disney+ and will do nowhere near that amount. $165MM US looks like absolute best;

#25 of 26 MCU :golfclap: 

 

And - per the CinemaScore - audience rating is # 26 of 26 MCU.

pyrrhic victory- will go past $400MM WW

#EternalsDisney_Marvel_TheEternals_E_2021.png was off 50% from Thanksgiving at $3.9M in 5th wknd raising domestic #boxoffice to $156.5M with global heading to $400M+.
INTL $227.8M WORLDWIDE $384.3M

Still going to be a nail biter.  Plus they do not have the magical we made $125 million D+ dollars to fall back on.

Yeah especially since after next weekend it's losing all its screens to spider-man, and it isn't going to make 16MM+ next weekend.

So is the international box office going to continue like this? I know Eternals got hurt by it. But James Bond did not
and others did not. Was it the movie itself? I know that China had issues with the director.

It appears depending on the situation China is finding excuses to block international films.

  • Venom 2: Tom Hardy said something in 2012 that is now offensive (not in 2018)
  • Shang-Chi: Simu Liu said how tough it was for his family living in China back in 2017 and now they are offended
  • Eternals: The director said something about China in 2013 and so her Oscar win was blocked and now her MCU film
  • Black Widow: The movie wasn't timed to be released right after Captain America: The Winter Soldier so even China saw the mistake (:shiftyeyes: )

:frustrated:

Yup. After all those weeks of big drops now finally seeing some positive weeks later is a little late.

'Review-proof' will come with a disclaimer statement now 'Except for Eternals'.

I can only speak about Aust / NZ , but there is so much chatter about the new Spidey movie that it's going to be huge here.

Aust / NZ - would not surprise to take $40million

 

Speaking of surprises...

 

https://www.projectcasting.com/blog/news/marvel-movie-australia/

 

 @Bosco685 - any idea of the 'mystery marvel movie' getting a grant?

 

I know a guy who does 'extra' apps (he was in the Leftovers - very, very briefly!) - he's heard the name 'Kraven' mentioned by his agency - and he's not a comic guy.

 

Confirmed to be filming in Australia: Guardians of the Galaxy 3, Black Panther 2, Captain Marvel 2, and the sequel to Doctor Strange. (Love and Thunder / Shang-Chi filmed here already)

 

So could the 'mystery movie' be the next Spidey?  Not due to start until 2022/23

 

According to ABC news (Australia):

 

"Jared Leto will star as Morbius, the Living Vampire in a movie due in January 2022, while Aaron Taylor-Johnson (who played Quicksilver in Avengers: Age Of Ultron) is slated to star as Kraven The Hunter in a film due in January 2023.

But Sony is just getting started - a further seven films and two TV series have been mooted for the so-called Sony Spider-Man Universe franchise, including an untitled film from Olivia Wilde believed to be about Spider-Woman AKA Jessica Drew, and standalone movies introducing characters such as Silk, Jackpot and Madame Web, who are little known outside comic book readers."

 

The timing is right.
