This market resolves based on the outcome of: Deadpool & Wolverine' over $200m opening weekend. Resolution follows credible public reporting before the end date.
BOM has the final number as $211,435,291 - so now we can close this
Gg
This one was pretty fun.
gg indeed, nice conviction on your end to hold during the weekend
Thanks!
Boxmojo now showing 205
Those are still just estimates (for Sunday in particular). The prediction is resolved by the actuals on Monday.
dw it'll be even higher once the final numbahs are in
Boom yeah 211M
Seems early to me but several news outlets are calling it at $205M (see deadline and hollywood reporter)
Morning sales are ~14% down on yesterday, so it's on course for $210m!
$96m+$61.5+$53m.
wow!
Yep
Sunday sales have been very strong, potential for a $54m day. Disney are likely to report $210m/211m for the weekend.
$211m, there we go [link removed]
Saturday reported 61.5M, so Sunday needs 42.5M. Will be close for sure. Source: [link removed]
Feel like this is gonna be a real close one, risk reward ratio on NO is worth the bet.
me too
Ok -- preliminary estimates accordong to sources say 61-62M which would mean 40+ needed for sunday. I am still bullish on getting the 200M, mut below my by expectation of 67M so I believe I shouldnt risk all my portfolio on yes. Ibelieve disney wants to push past the 200m mark, but as the saturday might not match the expected pace, not as certain anymore..
I guess there might be just so much noise that hard to be definitive on the prediction, given inflation, weather, olympics, fatigue, etc. all can or can not have a conpounding effect
Just to give a final point (summarizing the other two) -- friday for all marvel movies represents 37% - 48% of sales. For black panther it was 37% and for other good movies that are hyped it can be 40%. For poor releases it has been 48% (e.g., Thor love and thunder), because reviews are poor and people are not going saturday and sunday. Deadpool & Wolverine on the otherhand clearly is a good movie that gets good reviews
Strange: Thursday previews: 36 Friday sales: 54 Saturday: ~58 Sunday: ~39 (rounded up the last 2 days) I think you're being too generous to the Friday performances here. Thor 4: Thursday: 29 million Friday: 40, Saturday: 42 Sunday: 32
If we have Thursday: 38.5 then Friday is 57.5. Then Saturday looks like 60? So Sunday needs to hit 44+. That's completely possible. But does seem like a difficult battle. Sunday's biggest box office since COVID is Barbie @ 43.7 million.
Saturday will be more like 0.7*96 = 67M -- Of course you could argue that the Thursday is inflated, but that also means that more of the people saw it and can spread it to their friends during Friday. Saturday is a longer movie-day than Friday, so much more likely for Saturday to be around 70M than 60M
And of course the probability is not 100%, but I would put it closer to 97-98% than 90%, given there is quite a lot of margin on this going above..
And btw - thor love and thunder and Strange multiverse madness are the two ones which have had poor reception, with 3.6 / 3.1 stars in google reviews when I look at it now. Given they were worse movies, people were not showing up on Saturdays / Sundays as much. So they are not the best comparison here
So if you count that the Sunday + Saturday equals around 0.7*(1+0.7) * Friday sales, you are getting to $210M. And both of the 0.7 in the equation are very conservative, given the Movie we are reviewing here has gotten great reviews
I have to admit I did a complete U-turn with this one -- I was crunching for the numbers for a while, and it just seems super clear that it is going OVER the 200, not under. No one is really holding the order book from NO side so there seems ot be easy profits ATM
Basically, the thing is that I have been looking at all marvel movies, and the Saturday box office is always ~70% to Friday one.
For poor movies such as love and thunder it is a bit less, and for good movies it is more
So if you take the 96M for Friday, and then multiply it with 70%, you get saturday around 67M -- this means that for sunday the movie needs to deliver 37M
to get to the 37M for sunday, you would have to get 55% of saturday sales. However, for all of the peer group marvel movies, the sunday is 70-90% of saturday sales
Disney and Marvel are predicting $195 million to $205 million - MSN
Sounds closer to a 50/50
Agreed…
‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Goes Wild On Friday With $95M+, 6th-Best Opening Day At Domestic B.O., ‘A’ CinemaScore, Weekend Now At $195M-$205M – Saturday AM Update
Looking like good news for those with wolverine wif yellow suit conviction - [link removed]
There is usually some difference
Prediction: Preview: 38.5 Friday: 54 Saturday: 58 Sunday: 42 Total: 192
Friday will be around 80
In Box office Mojo? Gotta subtract the preview numbers tho, if you ever see 80 as the Friday numbers in Box Office Mojo, it is GG, that means it only made 42 million. On the other hand, if it would make 80 on Friday alone, you'd see a 118 million in BO Mojo, which... Just look how many movies have actually made that
Friday was 57 tho, this will all depend on today's box office, if it's below Friday's 57, if it's a I've 60, then it's over

the market can stay rational longer than you can stay solvent
quote and context both wrong
🤓
As i peel away in my Bentley. Lol
Not 1 website is predicting over 200mil. Lol degens
Age of Ultron is a good comp and D&W has a stronger start. Reviews universally good, Taylor Swift has tweeted re: it, and it has significantly less competition this wknd compared to other releases like Ultron (which was against Furious 7 and Pitch Perfect 2). Still risky but a good bet as virality spreads.
The closest we have is Multiverse of Madness, and that movie had significantly more hype than this one
@Mrc4t987 D&W is "the best R-rated preview we've ever seen at the domestic box office, and the eight-biggest preview of all-time. That number out-pegs the preview night of Marvel’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in 2022 ($36M, 3-day of $187.4M), and it’s just under Avengers: Infinity War ($39M), which rallied all the way to $257.6M in 2018." - [link removed]
If it's 199 they are so gonna have to round that up!
It definitely had great preview numbers Thursday. Im just betting people broke and R rating keeps familys out so no kids. Good luck brother!
The preview numbers on this one got inflated, MoM`s and Infinity War's preview was released on a Thursday at 7pm, this one was out since 3pm,and still it just made slightly above MoM.
So... You have the 8th most viewed preview in the movie with the longest preview... That ain't a good indicative that it will reach 200, just 8 movies have ever grossed over 200 in their opening weekend, and this is a R rated movie. You are basically betting that this movie won't lose momentum just as MoM did. Which, looking at social media and the fact it hasn't become TT in Twitter... Yeah....
ty ser, g'luck to you as well
Multiverse of Madness: Preview: 36 millions Friday: 54 million Saturday: 57 million Sunday 39 million Total: 187 million. There's no hype for this movie, there's barely any social media stuff talking about it other than fans, everyone who wanted to see the movie already saw it, unless it makes +100 with previews + friday, I doubt it can reach 200 million
Let's also mention that preview numbers are inflated, they released the movie on Thursday since 3pm when most previews have been released after 6pm or 7pm. The Marvel fatigue is real, and the average user won't understand all these movies cameos, plus, the box office of this year has been significantly lower than previous years, the current economy is slowly killing the cinema, we just come from inside out and this weekend we have the olympics, yeah... honestly, not seeing it reach 200 million
38.5M preview, saw it yesterday definitely on track for 200M+ opening: [link removed]
Yup, basically had the same previews as Multiuverse of madness, but this one is good, so... yeah, doubt it has the same drop
Too much hype with bringing in X-men to MCU and with Logan being dead and now alive… the names themselves will sell for the movie, 200M+ is programmed
Considering theaters are selling out, this thing is going over.
Even though i hope that happens, the economy is in a way that people are not prioritizing watching new movies tbh.
Some nerd cried at a showing when he saw Wolverine in the yellow suit. If it doesn’t hit it’s getting damn close
that has to have been you for sure.
bro snitching on himself 💀
