MCU Fantastic Four Box Office Predictions

[Stark Bauer]

Looks like the Box Office total grinding to a halt at 521-522 million

Obviously it has no bearing on Disney's perception of them, but I do find it interesting that at 7PM on Sundays the Marvel Twitter still posts the Reed Sunday dinner clip.

Clearly it made enough to satisfy them.

More accurately, it made enough to sell the PR that they are satisfied.

That was a good start. I believe FF sequel will make af least 300 million domestic and over 600 million worldwide…if there is a Spider Man cameo then minimum 700 million perhaps even a billion total worldwide

China's DOA on CBMs. A billion is not poosible.

This is just false. Remove China's 59 million from Deadpool & Wolverine's box office, and it would have still grossed over a 1.2 billion.

I don't think Fantastic 4 is grossing a billion, but other CBMs could gross over a billion without China.

It did $600 million domestic. What CBM will come close to that beyond Avengers?

Spider-Man will

 

[BobJM]

Definitely Spider-Man

The Batman Pt II and Man of Tomorrow are toss-ups but the first films were well-received, so that may buy some audience goodwill. Who knows if that goodwill extends to 600 mil though

Spider-Man, obviously which is coming out in less than a year.

No chance.

Superman's popularity has been overstated for 40+ years. I know certain fans like to use terms like "most iconic" or "most beloved", but it never seems to translate into tangible results on par with Spider-Man or Batman in general, the X-Men in comics, or the Avengers at the box office. Just empty calories as far as I can tell. Nothing against the character, the original Donner film is still a top 4 film for me in the genre.

Batman can potentially get 600 m in the right circumstances, not sure if its this particular franchise in this particular marketplace. Although if any "deserves" to hit that mark, I'd say this is the current franchise that most qualifies. The Batman (2022) was two-thirds of the way to becoming an all-timer for me, but the third act was weak and the Volume™ scenes were awful looking. The sequel is easily the film I am most looking forward to in the genre.

Spider-Man is the most likely, I just have little interest even though Spidey used to be my favorite character. Too much shared spotlight and cameos (again). No thanks.

 

[BobJM]

Yeah, again, toss-ups. I don’t sweat the B.O. unless it impedes a sequel to a franchise I like

When X-Men: DOFP didn’t make a $1B, I knew my barometer was off lol

If the Joker was going to be the main villain, I suspect The Batman Part 2 could hit the 600 mill mark. But needless to say, it's more than likely Reeves is going in another direction in that area so that may be a discussion for Part 3 in a few years.
