CM has +400m over HG and +200m over WW globally. Aren’t you out of yarn to spin yet?

Posted by: HurricaneKid on Apr 19, 16:41 in response to VictorY's post I'm flattered.. (Haha) but everyone keeps missing the big...

But I can't call "Captain Marvel" the biggest thing out there when "Wonder Woman" made like 50 million less (opening weekend) and looks to "still" beat CM on the domestic side.

Oh boy you must be running out of yarn to spin. First off, by the objective standard (box office), CM is indeed “the biggest thing out there” so far this year.

 

You then introduce WW to that discussion. So if we are to look at the years 2017-2019, no one would argue that WW was “the biggest thing out there” in that time frame. There were 5 films that made more domestic than WW and CM in that time frame, domestic. Even more if you count international.

 

Anyone who was calling WW or CM “the biggest thing out there” in regards to their respective box office seasons, they are technically correct. Anyone calling those films “the biggest thing out there” between 2017-2019 has no idea what they are talking about.

Captain Marvel will cross $400 Mill sometime in the next week. Anyone know where VictorY is? {nm} bennyg1985 Apr 19, 08:25

im about 51% sure it gets past Wonderwomans 412.6 islndr Apr 19, 08:41

took a quick look at WW's 41 day pace and CM is ahead...389 versus 372 {nm} tealfan Apr 19, 08:58

Of course, CM had a $48M head start on opening weekend. {nm} ~JPV~ Apr 19, 10:21

(Sorry, actually $50M -- CM $153M vs WW $103M) {nm} ~JPV~ Apr 19, 10:23

+1. Correct. Which is my point here. If I'm to be fair to CM, I have to account for WW's far less opening also. {nm} VictorY Apr 19, 15:22

VictorY must be savoring the 'total exoneration' and otherwise enjoying life on the spectrum {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Apr 19, 08:59

Her international box office is now higher than Black Panther's too. {nm} RattyBatty Apr 19, 09:07

That's a head scratcher. BP was a much better film than CM. {nm} VictorY Apr 19, 15:24

Thinking up poor excuses that he's still right and that CM is a failure? {nm} numbersix_99 Apr 19, 11:00

dont ever ask for an analysis again! {nm} Moviesnob Apr 19, 11:31

Yeah MS, your "Solo" anaylsis was so spot on. Gimme a break. {nm} VictorY Apr 19, 15:25

ok, I'll bite. What solo analysis? {nm} Moviesnob Apr 19, 15:36

Nevermind. {nm} VictorY Apr 19, 15:41

He’s clearly feigning ignorance to mock yours. {nm} Jay_Beezy Apr 19, 17:55

My guess is it will delist around 415-417. Still has 5 and a half weeks. {nm} pquicio Apr 19, 11:21

Mon-Thu grosses are ahead of last week, it should hold well t {nm} Qix Apr 19, 12:39

Oops damn mobile, it should hold well this weekend. {nm} Qix Apr 19, 12:40

I'm flattered.. (Haha) but everyone keeps missing the big point.. CM had bigger openings than WW and HG and is struggling to match them -- VictorY Apr 19, 15:18

It took HG 80 days to get to 400 million. CM will beatWW {nm} jamesbik333 Apr 19, 16:16

No offense. But HG already broke 400 million at the 42 day mark.. CM (42 day mark) is 390 million. {nm} VictorY Apr 19, 16:18

Ooops. Correction. That HG "Catching Fire," Box Office Mojo has up now. not the first HG. {nm} VictorY Apr 19, 16:19

It took HG 80 days to get to 400 million. CM will beatWW {nm} jamesbik333 Apr 19, 16:16

It took HG 80 days to get to 400 million. CM will beatWW {nm} jamesbik333 Apr 19, 16:16

CM has +400m over HG and +200m over WW globally. Aren’t you out of yarn to spin yet? HurricaneKid Apr 19, 16:41

And my prediction comes true. There was more anticipation for CM than WW, so it was more frontloaded. {nm} numbersix_99 Apr 20, 04:32

By your logic all the Fast and Furious movies are failures because of their weak IM {nm} numbersix_99 Apr 20, 04:34

Could possibly be working on a PowerPoint deck for Iger entitled "Printing money is actually bad." {nm} Kevman66 Apr 19, 15:26
