LMAO!

This is fan-****ing-tastic. We have 2 Einstein's going at each other. Comedy doesn't get funnier than this.

I'm more interested in seeing how big (or low) Morbius will open too in 2 weeks.

X deserves to do well but it won’t. People more interested in Scream sequels than original stuff. I know it’s low budget but I can’t find the actual number anywhere. Hopefully it still turns a profit.

Don't want to jinx it. Plus, China's numbers are not too good from what I understand. This weekend and next weekend will be the true test. So far it will have made a decent enough and somewhat respectable $300 million domestically by Monday according to predictions. But it's a Batman movie and should be better domestically by at least $40-50 million.

I thought you knew a thing or two about the box-office? They extrapolate off of Fridays number for a weekend total based off of trends.

BTW, here's a direct quote from you just last week.

If the box office next week holds equally well I will say it.

Seems like you're a bit of a fraud? Not sure why it's hard for you to give this film credit.

The Batman is already a msssive succes and is gonna be in Top 4 of all time domestic boxoffice performers for Warner. An outstanding start for a new Batman franchise. Its gonna do over 2 times worldwide gross of Batman Begins.

I'm not sure it's going to reach 4th of all time. I think it might get $350 domestically. Which is a respectable number, but still not great for its budget. And that $40 million for this weekend is a high number that it may not reach. It may though. It will be close. And it is not a "MASSIVE SUCCESS" at this point. And I doubt that it will ever be a "massive success". The china box office is hurting right now and this film is in the crosshairs.

If this movie ends up making a profit, I will eat my words and do so on here. But I don't see it. And everything I've read has said it won't make near as much as the previous Batman at all. I could be wrong and if I am I will eat my words.

‘The Batman’ Earns Another $36M, Hits $300M Domestically

Sony Pictures:

Uncharterd came in No. 3, earning $8 million from 3,700 theaters to hit a hearty $125.9 million for Sony

Spider-Man: No Way Home has all but crossed the historic $800 million mark domestically with a total through Sunday of $797.5 million.

The studio didn’t fare as well by Stage 6’s supernatural thriller Umma, which opened to $917,000 from 800 theaters to place No. 8.

Channing Tatum’s Dog rounded out in the top five in its fifth weekend, earning $4.1 million for a meaty domestic total of $54.2 million for MGM and United Artists Releasing.

That's not what you said, you keep moving the goal posts. You said if it holds as well this weekend as last you'd give it credit, it held better than last weekend. You're a fraud dude, in every sense of the word.

It's already making a profit, it'll hit $600M worldwide tomorrow.

[BluBonnet]

I guess this was a good weekend for Bats and anime. Not so good for horror

It ain't hitting $600 million tomorrow. And the numbers this weekend are good. I am admitting. The movie is still not out of the woods though. Is what it is.

You have zero clue what you're talking about, it'll zoom past $600M tomorrow.

Worldwide, The Batman is $1.9M shy of $600M. Of that global haul, $47.6M was generated at Imax hubs.

X will probably have a budget below 1 million so it could well be a profit already.

Have I missed something? It’s already at $590 million isn’t it? Why wouldn’t it push through $600 million by early next week?

It's actually at $598M, the guy is a goal post moving clown.

It’s absolutely a success now, can’t even be argued.

If you go by the 2.5X figure many say a movie needs to recoup to start making a profit then its made nearly $100M for WB, with a lot more to come.

I think a sequel is a safe bet.

Yep, safe to say a trilogy or more is in order.

[StarWarsIsAwesome123]

Even when the sequel is announced Ftfohd will keep insisting that the movie was a bomb because he's personally biased against it for whatever reason.
