Quantumania BoX Office Thread $

[Zyraquis]

International gross has been pretty underwhelming thus far. I am not seeing a path to $700m unless there are some miraculous rebounds or unusually strong markets emerging.

$17.5 million in Thursday previews, roughly level with Guardians 2.

Looking around $100m for the three day, $115-125m including president’s day.

Hmm I don't really want to see an Ant-Man 4. So I don't mind those numbers.

The cinemascore is going to make me wonder if it can keep those numbers.

My second showing had a good size crowd the movie had a few small laughs which came when Ant-Man reacted to Darren/MODOK. Then the MODOK death nothing else really landed with jokes.
The movie should make 500-600,

 

[Sithborg]

Don't know where Boxofficemojo is getting their numbers, but they are way off from what I'm seeing elsewhere.

It is fascinating already to compare it to Deadpool, where the opening day was only a little less, but they are very much talking a weaker opening weekend. Should be interesting to see the Sat numbers.

Box Office: 'Ant-Man 3' Lands $46 Million Opening Day - Variety

Saturday seems to be surprisingly good. It is still very early to say, and next week will be a real test, but it might end up to be as very rare case that the movie could survive scathing critic reviews and underwhelming cinema score. It might not be a good thing to encourage Marvel to think it may just get away with whatever criticisms since many of them are rather constructive and legit rather than pure whining and malicious attacks.

 

[psylockolussus]

Maybe in Quantumania it got 63 million in its 1st day.

 

[SomeOldGuy]

Looking like $109m for FSS, $127m for the four-day. Not bad.

Official Disney estimates ease a bit to 104/118

Disney lowballing as usual.

[HammerDown]

Saturday’s ease is better, percent- wise, than the Friday-to-Saturday hold for Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness (-36%), Thor: Love and Thunder (-40%) and not far from Eternals (-22%). The first two movies were rated B+ by moviegoers, while Eternals has a B, which is what Ant-Man 3 received.

So tied with Eternals for the worst Cinemascore in the MCU. Not good news for the word of the mouth.

 

[Mike Murdock]

A low cinema score usually measures whether a movie has legs or not. That being said, while I think Cocaine Bear will get some attention (and Jesus Revolution might surprise people), I think it'll be the number one movie next weekend too. I think Creed III will beat it, though (although maybe this year will be the year of Jonathan Majors).

 

[Sithborg]

The numbers are weird. It seems to be bouncing around a lot. From 100 to 109 to 104. The actuals will be interesting.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Charlie from BOT is saying 125-ish m for the 4-day. Huge win for Ant-Man.

 

[The Caped Knight]

Looking like $109m for FSS, $127m for the four-day. Not bad.

That’s impressive for an Ant-Man film, no less in the month of February. Good job

I think this is heavily front loaded. I enjoyed the movie for what it was, despite its obvious flaws. But I’ll be surprised if this thing doesn’t drop at least 60% next weekend

Yeah, it will take a big tumble. Might stay sub-60% though, if only because it didn’t do (relatively speaking) huge bucks this weekend.

Monday update from Deadline:

MONDAY AM: Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania wound up hitting its $120Mtracking projection from four weeks ago. Disney believes this AM that the Peyton Reed Marvel Studios movie will get there. Sunday was higher at $25.7M than the expected $24.2M and Monday is on track for $14.5M for a $120M result. 3-day revised is $105.5M. Some rivals think Ant-Man 3 can overshoot to $121M-$123M.

Slightly misleading tittle but solid OW with that extra day being a nice plus, now the question is how will it perform going into the 2nd weekend… I think it might struggle then. Around lower 30’s would be my guess.

 

[Silver Surfer]

Moving on up!
