<----See my avi.
After IM3 I am looking forward to MS films less but perhaps Thor 2 will change that. If Days Of Future Past play their cards right I could see it becoming the best. The only film that could rival TASM2 financially is Cap 2. Though in terms of quality that could be Days Of Future Past.
DOFP has a better chance at 600+ m than Cap 2 IMO.
But nothing is coming close to ASM2's box office gross.
This is sad.If Cap 2 doesn't have an impressive BO, they will probably hesitate to make a Cap 3 because they have many characters to make movies for. Why should they make more Cap movies if it's not bringing them that much money? $500 million for Cap is if the movie is mediocre and has mediocre advertising.
It depends on Cap 2's budget.
A 175 m budget means they need less than 400 m WW for a sequel.
I'm not talking about breaking even. I am saying they probably wouldn't bother. If it gets $400 million or less then I highly doubt there will be a sequel. $500 million sounds like a worst case scenario for me. It's not that hard to believe that if the movie is really good it can get $600 million. I know I sound overly defensive, but that's what happens when your fave character has his/her box office potential limited.![]()
I'm expecting Cap2 to clear the $600 mil plateau and rest somewhere inside of $700 mil.
I'd say 550 m WW.
225 domestic
325 overseas

Tho TASM2 will probably be the highest grossing, I hope so anyway.
That's if it's really good?
I'm not saying it will definitely make more, but surely the potential for more is there.
Breaking even at the box office is actually very good for superhero movies. That means toy, merchandise, dvds, tv right revenue is almost all profit.
