They are really saving the other characters (especially cameos) for the film. I would love to see promotional pictures for those.

Same, but mostly because all the 6pm shows are at capacity.

They must really believe in the movie, this is the earliest they have done the sales since like phase 3.

I'm not very familiar with Cassandra but, in the lore, does she have the capacity to do something similar to what Magneto did to Wolverine in Fatal Attraction and extract his adamantium? I always wanted to see that live action after it was teased in the 1st X Men movie.

"Debut" as in opening weekend? If it doesn't cross $200M in its opening weekend, I'll be disappointed.

Lol what? How is 100 million opening disappointing?

Because it's Deadpool and Wolverine. DP 2 made $125M in its opening. Coming short of that... or even matching that, would be a huge disappointment, IMO.

That was in 2018. There has been a major shift in moviegoing in the 6 years due to all sorts of reasons.

Exactly. The pandemic pretty much accelerated the streaming age and now audiences know they don't have to wait as long for films to show up on VOD or a streaming platform. But also, yeah, there's no world where a Deadpool film making $100 million in its opening weekend is a disappointment.

 

[JP]

Gonna be massive. I'm going for $180m+

 

[Filmfreak]

Even by post pandemic and Hollywood fatigue standards I agree 100 million is not much of we're talking about opening weekend. Quantumania did 104 and Guardians 3 did 118 last year. Deadpool and Wolverine are extremely popular and Disney is hyping it and pushing hard for this. Also it's good to remember that most MCU films are usually very front loaded, so if its budget is huge per usual and it gets the most common 67% drops, it might not be good. It's going to depend a lot on reviews and word of mouth.

Bucky and Steve or Steve and Tony?

Someone didn't watch Challengers.

 

[squeekness]

I agree. This is going to be too much fun to bomb.

 

[DyeLorean]

Look, I know there's a lot they're not showing because of *spoilers*. I know. I KNOW.

But.

Judging the trailers by themselves the movie doesn't look interesting at all.

 

[psylockolussus]

After watching the box office crash that was The Marvels, I'm just relieved this will at least open big. I think this should outgross the first two Deadpool movies (domestic/worldwide) but times have changed.

Disney and Marvel should be nervous for their next year's line up. The Fantastic 4 isn't definitely going to open as big as this. Thunderbolts* and Captain America 4, might struggle too.

 

[Mysteryman]

If it doesn't make a billion, We will hear yet another endless chorus of,"Marvel is DEAD!"
If it does cross the billion dollar mark, the narrative will be " People just went to say goodbye to the Fox Marvel characters".
Or, SOMETHING LIKE THAT!

I think it will do very well, they are going to market the heck out of it. I don't think it is quite the Spider-Man: No Way Home event feel, but it should be the 2nd most successful Marvel movie since that. Deadpool and X-Men officially entering the MCU, people will care to actually go to the theater. Marvel gets to market it since no more strike so that will help.

Will this outgross Madness of the Multiverse worldwide?

 

[BoredGuy]

Based on the excitement I'm hearing for this movie as opposed to MoM, it seems like this should outgross it
but who even knows at this point, I'm done trying to predict box office takes

 

[legendkillin]

It should, I think MoM had a lot of hype going into it. They failed with the actual multiverse part which hurt replay value.

This movie you know we are getting Deadpool & Wolverine(Hugh Jackman) so they focus on that. The cameos and Easter Eggs will be bonus. It should have multiple screening value.
