The fact that no one has even answered this speaks volumes. No sequel, Probably make no more than 55 mil opening weekend. 150 total. Ww. 375. This movie wont work without ties to Spiderman....shame really. Especially since superhero films are getting to their saturation point. Dx already mulling reboot and Marvel is getting Top Heavy and we have how many super hero tv series clogging up tv and the subscription services now????

reply

I don't think there is saturation over superhero films Marvel is still strong and alot of people are interested in Aquaman and Shazam!. So I think this genre is going longer.

reply

55M opening and 150M Total would be pretty darn successful. Especially considering it looks to have mid-range budget 50-100M.

Sure Marvel Movies make way more but they also have 200-250M budgets along with heftier marketing costs.

This is far from the biggest comic book movie. It's gonna sink like a stone and be forgotten quickly critics hate it and nerds like you love it.....hahahaha....BORRRRRING

reply

It's making a ton of money (guaranteeing a sequel) and getting its own spin-off.

Just facts...

US Open: 80M
US Total: 250M
WW Total: 625M
Budget: 100M

Rotten Tomatoes Critics: 75% Audience: 80%

Well looks like Manofsteel was the closest on the opening weekend almost right on the money with 80M and RT Audience Score 80% to 88% actual. Probably over on the overall Dom and WW. Be interesting to see how it settles. Probably around 200M DOM and 600 WW.

I guess I win the RT Critics score prediction even tho its still way high.

reply

I think that Domestic will be 200M more likely now. WW will be difficult.

reply

Not bad. And word is, $625+ million WW isn’t beyond the realms of possibility now.

As far as its reception goes, I’m delighted to see how overwhelmingly positive the audience score is —it’s also received good audience scores on other sites. The unimpressed critics might have spoken (many I say misunderstood this thing), but when all is said and done this film sure defied the odds. Round of applause!

reply

Without a doubt this film didn´t deserved the bad reviews it received but critics are humans too.

reply

wkend 75m
US total 250m
WW total 700m

pluses = its a Venom movie finally, the Spiderman connection, Hardy,
Minus's = PG13, trailers don't look that great?, October release (but then that could end up being a plus)

reply

WW 600 million

The rest is irrelevant.

I won as it seems

reply

looks like I may have underestimated 75m opening!

reply

I over estimated . I thought around 95

reply

200 million worldwide, strong start, my guess may come true.

reply

I estimate first weekend:

US
$83,030,000
39.0%
+ Foreign:
$129,200,000
61.0%
= Worldwide:
$207,230,000

RT Critics 39%
Aud Rating: 89%

reply

I didn’t smell anything and there were no reasons to predict it.

reply

So now it’s made 200+ million domestically and it’s nearing $700 million WW.

Damn.


This thing unarguably blew way past anyone’s expectations. The power of Venom! Concerning Sony and Marvel.... when all is said and done, the movie clearly connected with audiences and the overall appeal of the character proved to be big. The Marvel film world only continues to shine. Awesome.

reply

It just beat Justice League:

And it’s already crossed the $700M mark to boot. Wow.
