I think the box office for Logan will be fine. I just don't believe that it can surpass X-Men Apocalypse worldwide box office, even with all the good reviews.
Looks like it won't be number 1 this weekend

It's Still a good number
Apocalypse only made $543 million... Logan is on track for $600. I don't follow your logic.
My logic is exactly what I said. I don't think it will beat Apocalypse, which means it won't make more than what Apocalypse did. To simplify for you, I believe it won't make more than 543M.
Track is just a prediction. Is not an exact science.
But I hope all the best luck for Logan cause I really loved the movie. I just don't like the idea of movies like Logan and Deadpool making a lot of money cause the Studio might think that this is the way to go and not make more movies like X-Men Days of Future Past and Apocalypse which cost a lot of money to make.
For me, a proper X-Men movie it has to have huge visual effects and big scale bad guys.
I'm guessing a movie for Deadpool and Logan is fine to be small time villains that they can defeat alone.
Apocalypse as a villain for Deadpool or Logan wouldn't have worked cause they wouldn't be able to defeat them by themselves.
Again, I'm happy for Logan's success but I hope the next X-Men movie the big bad scale is as big as it was with Apocalypse.
The problem with Apocalypse was Bryan Singer. He's afraid to embrace the comics. And thought that Apocalypse should be a guy with a soft voice who thinks that all mutants are his kids. That's not Apocalypse, Brian Singer has ruined his chance to make a good Apocalypse movie.
And the whole Mytisque and Beast actors not wanting to embrace the full body blue paint it was just another thing wrong with that movie.
Overall, I think X-Men Apocalypse is the best x-men movie, even better than Logan. Even with all its problems, X-Men Apocalypse was the closest x-men movie to get everything right.
I disagree with you on Apocalypse.i feel Apocalypse was done well and very approate.and if you like DOFP or apocalypse or both the one largely responable was singer as director not the writing.Apocalypse pulled from 616 and ultimate comics and both the 1990's and evolution animated shows.
yes X_Men films need more money than deadpool and logan had.remember logan is even more grounded than any of the 4 films singer directed.
Logan's success challenges notion deadpool is how fox has to make films from now on.
Lgan is also example of both quality & people wanting to see jackman & Stewart's final X film.
I know several people, myself included, that would disagree. I've seen it twice, and am itching to see it a third time.
I think you're probably in the minority. I really enjoyed this movie, but it falls close to the kind of film like say, Saving Private Ryan, where I'm not itching to instantly watch it again.
It's as intense as SPR was, but it's definitely a grim film. So I can see why not a lot of people are going to be up to instantly hop back in the theatre for it.

I'm totally seeing it again.
Boxoffice.com is projecting a 54% 2nd weekend decline, which means the 89M OW Logan has legs, which means it will top 200M easily and cream Apocalypse in NA, that means it only needs to make just over 300M internationally including China to top Apocalypse, and it's probably already made 70M there already, and is projected to make 100M, that means it only need 200M internationally minus China, and it already made 110M in the first weekend.
In short, Logan's going to make at least 600M, personal guess is 650M, which are both way above Apocalypse 523M.
Edit: Just checked, Apocalypse only made 80M OW in NA, I don't think it got that much repeat viewing from casual moviegoers anyway.
My logic is exactly what I said. I don't think it will beat Apocalypse, which means it won't make more than what Apocalypse did. To simplify for you, I believe it won't make more than 543M.
