Avengers Opening Weekend Domestic Box Office STILL More Than JL Entire Domestic Run


After 3 weeks......Holy Sheeeet!

reply

Ha!

And the MCU has had diminishing returns ever since then. Hard to see them ever having an OW that large again.

reply

please stop talking box office

Just in the last week, You claimed

"300 Million dollars Domestically was dead for Thor 3", lol Thor 3 is now easily going to make 300 M

"You Predicted JL would make over 50 Million dollars overseas this weekend and Laughed at me when I said it would make 35 to 37 Million TOP", JL made 35 Million overseas this weekend.

your last 2 weeks have been ROUGH too

When JL opened

Early Friday you had JL making 150 Million

Mid Friday you were sure JL would at least make more than Suicide Squad 133 Million

Late Friday You were predicting JL would come in at 110 Million

Saturday You were confident JL would have A HUGE Saturday BUMP leaving Us Poster NOT PLEASE

Sunday , after JL embarrassingly came in at 94 Million, you decided to start claiming JL would Have A Incredible Thanksgiving HOLD from Great WOM....lol JL ended up having awful Holds, worse than Twlight Films

Then came The Prediction where you claimed JL would easily make more than 650 Million World Wide, thats now impossible.

lol just stop talking BO

"And the MCU has had diminishing returns ever since then. Hard to see them ever having an OW that large again."

I swear you even had to feel SHAME when you typed this, lol NOt even you could have taken this seriously when you tytped it, You had to be just sitting at your computer, Looking at JLs awful box office results this weekend, got really upset and angry and Then said "Fuck it, this will get some responses, this is so stupid, people wont be able to help themselves"

lets just forget for a second the 3 weeks of non stop failed box office predictions you've made, lets just forget them

If You ONLY said this...."And the MCU has had diminishing returns ever since then. Hard to see them ever having an OW that large again." and nothing else,you just disqualified yourself from ever being taken seriously when talking box office ever again

This is maybe the biggest "Face Palm" Moment I've ever seen including My 5 years on IMDB

Three words...Age of Ultron.

Two words...Civil War.

Lol...what were their Opening Weekends again compared the the first Avengers?


*face Palm* indeed!

reply

Do you know what the word "diminishing" means?
Lol

reply

ya but theres just 1 Major problem with your "Diminishing" results Attempt, No I mean 12 Major problems....

Cap 1-65 M Opening
Cap 2-95 M Opening
Cap 3-181 M Opening

Thor 1-66 M Opening
Thor 2-84 M Opening
Thor 3-122 M Opening

IM 1-98 M Opening
IM2-128 M Opening
IM 3-174 M Opening

GOTG-95- M Opening
GOTG2-146 M Opening

lol but nice try....lol You literally picked the 1 example where A MCU sequel made Slightly less than its Predecessor, But Ignored the facts that 11 out 12 INCREASED...but you did here is called The Exception, You intentionally picked The Exception to the rule and then tried to make it into THE RULE...

but you can't, sorry, now Maybe if there were 4 or 5 examples of MCU "Diminishing" in returns, you MIGHT have a point but theres not...

Also whats worse, Breaking Records , Opening at 200 M+ then following it up with 2 films that make Just slightly less results

Or never getting close to Record breaking numbers and then following it up with films that Make almost 50% less

lol The Avengers-207 M....AOU-191 M...CW-181 M

BvS-$166 M...JL 94 M

lol by the way your not suggesting These results are bad right? not even you are that dumb, your just desperate and are trying to point out AOU and CW didnt make as much as The Avengers to get A rise out of people right...Your not actually suggesting These results are disappointing are you

theres also 1(no 2) more Giant Problems with your Diminishing returns Fail...lol and those problems are Avengers 3 and 4....

just like you jumped the gun saying 300 M was dead for Thor 3...your clearly jumping the gun here...saying "Hard to see them ever having an OW that large again."

when there is 2 upcoming avengers movies coming out that are going to be by far the biggest MCU films...is quite simply only something YOU would do...no one with any sense would make that statement with Avengers 3 and 4 coming up...

PS, with everything I've said, I do want to be fair, Its not entirely out of the question that you are RIGHT...It is possible that THe Avengers may have been The PEAK of Box office potential for The MCU and for the CBM genre in general.

The Avengers was a once in a lifetime movie, It was the first "Team Up"...It may just be that the film HIt all the right cords, and it may not be possible for any MCU or any CBM to ever top it, and if that is the case, thats fine....

But the problem here, and what makes YOU and your statement Absurd is....You just jumped the gun, based on The history of MCU films almost always making more than Their Predecessors and Based on The facts that we have by far the 2 biggest Avengers movies COMING up...Its simply absurd for you to make that claim now...

If Avengers 3 and 4 come out and make between 190 to 205 Million on OW....then Yes I think we can officially say The MCU+ CBM genre box office reached its PEAK and Maximum With The Avengers...

after The Avengers came out in 2012....there was 6 CBMs that had the Potential to match or exceed Its Success....Those movies were ...AOU,BvS, Civil War,JL and Avengers 3 and 4....

So far 4 have failed to do so....but we have 2 Left...If these final 2 dont reach or exceed The Avengers Success, Then at the point we have enough evidence to say, " box office potential PEAKED with THe Avengers for the MCU and The CBM genre"

but until then, only A complete idiot would say ""Hard to see them ever having an OW that large again."

and again The biggest problem with this statement is , your actually saying this likes its a bad thing or disappointment and your also saying it like Its A SOLE indictment on Marvel Studios...

lol This isn't A Marvel Studios/MCU thing...This is a CBM genre thing...NO CBM from any studio has reached level of Success of The Avengers...

If your being serious about "Diminishing returns"(which I know your not, your just desperate and angry) but if you were serious,Then This is A CBM Genre problem NOt just a MCU problem

if you honestly want to say "well no MCU made as much as The Avengers, thats means things are going downhill", then thats goes for Every CBM and every Studio

NO CBM or Studios has gotten CLOSE to The Avengers Success(Marvel Studios have gotten The closest with AOU and CW)

So I'm sorry but your Desperate attempt at saying MCU has "Diminishing returns" doesn't hold up for 3 majors reason.

#1-11 out of the 12 MCU films have made More than Their Predecessors

#2-There are 2 Upcoming Avengers movies that absolutely have the potential to match or exceed The Avengers box office

#3-This isn't A MCU problem, This is a CBM genre Problem, Its not just MCU films that hasnt topped The Avengers, NO CBM from any studio has gotten close to The Avengers Success, If you honestly believing "There are Diminishing returns" then You have to feel that way about every single CBM thats been released since The Avengers

especially with DC, again , since THe Avengers were released, 4 CBM's had the potential to match or Exceed The Avengers box office, Fans, Box office Analysts, everyone predicted AOU,BvS,Civil War and JL to Match or exceed The Avengers Box office from 2013 to 2015

None of then did, again Marvel Studios by far got the closest, But The facts are DC had 2 films also that absolutely had the potential to do it and didnt

The Point here is, you may be right...It May not be possible to Match or exceed The Avengers box office and therefor by definition that means box office is diminishing...But this isnt a MCU thing, This is a CBM genre deal...DC had movies that had potential to do it and failed, The MCU had films that could do it and came up short....Its entirely Possible The CBM Genre PEAKED in box office with The Avengers, but we wont know that Until after The next 2 Avengers movies come out

Lol...CW's(introducing SPIDER MAN) $181 is just "slightly less" than Avengers 1's $207 million?

Nope...the MCU will never have a 207 million OW. Deal with it.

JL is about to make less money overall then Dr. Strange.

You know who he is?

^^^

How old are you?

I've asked you several times

I'm not kidding, theres no other explanation, for you to read what I just wrote, and respond with this^

You have to be a child, No adult or person with any normal mental capacity would respond like that...

Please just tell me if you are a child, I want to stop responding to you and stop making fun of you if you are

I've been going by the assumption that your A Hardcore DC fan that is very upset and angry and are simply behaving this way out out Spite

But this is like the 4th time now, you've shown behavior that ONLY a child would do....

Please tell me you age....If you really are between like 10 to 15, just tell me, I dont want to bully you...I'll simply say I'm sorry and not respond to any of your post anymore....

If you not a child, Then I'm going to ask for the first time, are you mentally disabled in someway...

You may be thinking I'm trying to make fun you, but I swear I'm not...I'm actually kind of blown away and concerned, I truly just can not believe the reply you posted, The second I read it, I literally stopped and had to think "I am Making fun of a child or mentally disabled person here and not realizing it"

PM me if you want, I swear to god I wont post or reveal on here what you say....I just need to know what I'm dealing with here, You can't be just a normal person behaving like this...

Lol...CW's(introducing SPIDER MAN) $181 is just "slightly less" than Avengers 1's $207 million?

Nope...the MCU will never have a 207 million OW. Deal with it.

^ there are no words to describe this response, especially when you read my post...My post was as honest and as fair as could be, I even stated you could be right, and listed Facts and data that all proved my points

and you responsed with A "Haha I know you are but what I am" child response

reply

Everyone knows CW was Avengers 2.5 and even introduced Spidey into the MCU and fell 26 million short.

With SPIDER. MAN lol

reply

yeah... but it wasn't. The title says Captain America. Not Avengers. And is a direct sequel to Bucky's arc.

And yep. That's how you introduce not 1 but 2 main characters [don't forget Black Panther].

I'm not one bit surprised about Spider Man. Tired of him already.

20 days later and this still true. What a shame!
