BvS Batman V Superman Box Office Prediction - - - Part 12

I said this in the Doomsday BO thread, I think they are shedding theaters too quickly as they probably expected BvS to eat up their remaining profits but I don't think that's exactly the case anymore?

They should maybe slightly re-expand even?

You know what I would do? Get another Deadpool marketing commercial out now to capitalise on BvS. Have him boast about his film and allude to BvS critical response without ever mentioning the film by name.

They should but I think Fox might be hesitant to start a beef with WB which is what that might be perceived as?

If any film could get away with that it would be Deadpool of course.

No doubt it would be perceived as a bit of a cheap shot, Fox hasn't exactly has a great track record either, but I say they should at least give something a shot and see if they can inject a few extra million in the coffers.
 
Fox has already started pushing Deadpool's Blu-ray/DVD release.
 
Makes sense. Again they most likely saw March 25th as the begining end point for their theatre run but there is definitely money to be made in the threatres, mainly due to the likely under-performance of BvS and people maybe wanting an alternative superhero movie option.
 
It's not good for any of the studios to have a film like this under perform at the box office. It looks like 50 mil is in the cards for BvS this weekend. While there was no big competition in cinemas this weekend, the final four looks to have taken a bite out of the demo. The walking dead will do the same tomorrow. We should see some stabilization starting next week.
 
So, what do you guy's think the film's final box-office gross will be? Also, does anyone have any estimates for its performance yesterday, Saturday, April 2nd?
 
made 22.2 million on sat. now projecting a 51 million weekend

The only good news is that Warner Bros.’ Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice‘s weekend isn’t any worse than what we expected, but a tad better with a FSS of $51.2M after seeing a $22.2M Saturday, +45% over Friday’s $15.3M. The concern here was that BvS’ second weekend was going to sink into the higher $40M range. Currently, that doesn’t look like it’s going to happen with many predicting a -35% hold on Sunday over Saturday. BvS‘ Saturday uptick is normal for a number of big pics in their second weekend, and in fact most films in the top 10 saw Saturday surges between 13%-48%.

22 million for Saturday. Tomorrow day should be strong but the evening is going to take a hit with the walking dead season finale.
 
Batman came out of this just fine and so did the rest of the characters.

I've said the same many times and that's even more reason for a preceding BatFleck solo as it would likely have been great and helped this film. Are you saying you don't think a solo would have been good before? It would have built up the BvS event even more giving one film to each plus meant we could hit the ground running without anyone thinking 'motivation' or other scenes were missing. Plus hopefully a solid box office bank (the only character in this universe to be coming off a string of huge and recent hits) and non-polarising film to give the DCCU a bit of a financial foundation and build up good will ahead of the main event.
 
WB needs to hault JL and crawl on their knees to Abrams to take over the DCEU

Looks like it's going to be in the $50ms then. One thing I guarantee is that WB won't be choosing any future DCCU release dates that clash with other big films. I think they can see how much of an unnecessary and huge risk that would have been now (would be to any film).

Their big problem is no-one is going to fear going up against JL now.
 
I can't believe this happened. Im so disappointed. Cavill seems love being Supes and Affleck is a good Batman, it seems this cast all get along and was becoming a family. Well it looks iffy what WB will do, they haven't got a clue. Whatever choice they make will be the wrong one. How could WB have allowed this to go wrong.

I'm one of the few people that like this film and hate that it's been so poorly received and is performing so badly (I've even pre-ordered my copy of the film's ultimate edition on BluRay).
I haven't felt so connected to a movie and saddened by its performance since Ang Lee's Hulk (2003). Anyhow, I'm glad that it did okay yesterday.

They didn't play it smart. MoS was never meant to be the start of a wider universe, they kept on the same director, they tried to run before they could walk by skipping solo films, they failed to monitor what Snyder was doing, and the most important thing, they had poor leadership.

Considering it actually made 15.35 on Friday, a revised estimate would look more like this:

Friday 15.35
Saturday: 22.2
Sunday: 13.32

Total: $50.87M (-70%)

Final gross will be $350M

Wow, there's a Hi Definition BluRay available for pre-order? Tell me where I can sign up!
 
Revising my weekend estimate in light of Saturday's $22.2 million:

Sunday - $13.5 million
SECOND WEEKEND TOTAL - $51 million

That's a 63.1% drop, sans Thursday pre-shows. That's pretty bad, since the "normal" drop was 55.6%, but nowhere near as bad as it could be.

Estimated total gross for China for BvS put it at under $100M USD.

Which would be below
$105,370,038
the total for Ant-Man in China.
