It's freaking April! In 2017 the summer box office was the worst in a decade. The box office bounced back like it

always does. The box office has good years and bad years like any business. Let's wait to the end of 2019 before we have a Chicken Little The Sky is Falling reaction in the 4th month of the year.

NO one but you said CM was in Spider-man 3 territory because you are deluslional. You are popular because you just won't man up and admit you were WRONG. 

CM will beat WW no perhaps about it. You don't think WW and CM are a fair comparision? But it was YOU who said mutiple times CM is a failure because it won't make as much as WW. YOU made the comparison. CM will also make more money than every Marvel movie but Black Panther and the 3 soon to be 4 Avengers movies.

CM the film itself isn't as storng as previous Marvel titles (based on reactions) this is YOUR opinion but based on the box office it's pretty F'cking popular.

You said 400 million looks to happen now, but remember -- this was a film that had a 153+ opener.  It should have passed it easily without just making it. 

It is passing 400 million easily. Iron Man 3 opened to 20 million more than CM and yet CM will make it to 400 million faster. You loved saying CM won't pass Hunger Games but it will and do it 6 weeks faster. Civil War made 25 million more than CM opening weekend yet CM will hit 400 million one day less. CM is going to finish in the top 25 all time domestic box office but of course you think it should have made more because some "fans" didn't like many of the story's decision making.

With Shazam! Making less than 150 million domestic and less than 400 million worldwide I'd slow your roll on Birds of Prey a lesser known property than the freaking Justice League which DC **** the bed on being some huge world builder. DC should stick to solo stuff and not try being Disney's Marvel cause this Marvel thing might be a once in a generation movie business moment.
