Apocalypse X-Men: Apocalypse Box Office Prediction Thread - Part 2

[Sithborg]

The highest I ever saw was $124.

Their prediction has been lowered to 82m for the four day weekend.....

The Studio expect 80m so is a good expectation.

Sure we hope for more but 80m is awesome.

 

[Iceman]

About 2/3 of TFA's opening day! Truly awesome!!

 

[DarkSouls]

I'd be extremely surprised if it does Spectre numbers. Spectre did over $880 million. Even BvS hasn't reached that yet.

Well, I mean X-Men is kind of growing to be like another James Bond franchise. Star Trek may actually be a better comparison. But the point is, both franchises have had multiple entries and if Apocalypse is successful, we could see this franchise as having up to maybe fifteen entries soon.

But then again, that's why I said best case scenario. It hits all cylinders and maximizes on all markets. It's not a billion, but it's still really successful.

Or it took 3 movies for Iceman to ice up and had to wait until his next appearance to do an ice slide.

We've never seen Storm really fly. Hahaha.

oh please, not even other star wars movies will be able to repeat that, let alone something that isn't it.

 

[RLAAMJR.]

And did their worldwide prediction change?

 

[Iceman]

I was having a joke about getting above $80m being 'awesome' for a 4 day weekend.

that would be very bad for future of franchise.

Alice Through The Looking Glass is going day-and-date across most territories (and the U.S.) which will rep 72% of the international market. The majors that are not opening include France (June 1), Japan (July 1), and Korea (September 8).

Looking Glass is looking at an offshore start in the $80M-$100M range with some putting it higher. Its live-action family fantasy comps include 2010’s Alice In Wonderland; 2013’s Oz, The Great And Powerful; 2014’s Maleficent; and 2015’s Cinderella.

There’s competition in the market, too. While Warcraft will look to tap into the gearhead space, young girls are believed to be cozying up to X-Men: Apocalypse more so than previous installments (it could see a 45%-60% drop this weekend, although Korea should open big and China is yet to come).

X-Men might make something between 65m and 82m this weekend

which would be a real disappointment.

 

[kineticist]

If this can do 745m like that says that'd be great.

 

[ImSGirl95]

65 million worst case scenario ... ? For the USA? During a 4-days week? o_0

65 mil is the 3-day weekend.

Looks like the 65m is the 3 day while 82m is the 4 day forecast.

 

[ImSGirl95]

65 mil is the 3-day weekend.

Ah! I see.
So the 82 million is for the 4 days?
Still ... looks weak

 

[Iceman]

Yep. And still terrible.

 

[Weather Witch]

Ah! I see.

Fox also predicted 80 mil themselves. It's not that much, no, but as long as it makes some decent money we're good. Especially with the 'lower than expected' budget.

 

[Manila Vanilla]

I'm still hoping for 90-100 mill plus 4 Day Weekend

 

[Erzengel]

On @Fandango advance sales for #XMenApocalypse running bit below #XMen DOFP. #AliceThroughTheLookingGlass same range as Tomorrowland.

 

[Manila Vanilla]

Apocalypse opened in two-thirds of the international marketplace last weekend grossing $101.6M. Many growth markets in Asia and Latin America saw bigger openings than DOFP. But North America behaves more like non-growing markets in Western Europe and in most of those countries, Apocalypse debuted behind DOFP. Attacking over 4,000 locations including 3D and PLF screens, X-Men Apocalypse could debut to about $93M over the four-day holiday span.

Alice Through the Looking Glass has a familiar feel and has the Disney stamp of approval, but it is not likely to be a supersized hit. Opening in over 3,700 theaters, it may capture about $52M over four days.

[marvelrobbins]

at very least Apocalypse will beat alice which is victory.

 

[EnDz0n3]

Was about to post the boxofficeguru prediction. Thanks for looking out my Filipino brother.

$93Mil is better than the $82Mil prediction from boxoffice.com. Can we please, at the very least, get it over the $100Mil mark?
