There's some pretty big movies still on the horizon for this year, and some really big question marks in terms of box office. (Take a look at Godzilla's lackluster opening, Brightburn's total flop, etc.)
What do you think will be the big grossers and possible flops for the remainder of the year? Here's my predictions.
Blockbusters ($600M+):
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Smash hits ($300M+):
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Moderate hits ($200M+):
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Question marks:
I could see Child's Play maybe having some success due to counter-programming with Toy Story 4. I'm not sure of its budget, but it probably doesn't need to make much more than ~$80M to break even.
And any other year, I'd say Maleficent 2 is sure to do well, but because this year is so jam-packed with Disney, this one may fall by the wayside a bit.
And because we haven't seen anything of the Jumanji sequel, the Charlie's Angels reboot, or Cats, I'm throwing them in here. Though, Cats is counter-programming with Star Wars, so that could help it quite a bit.

Flops:
I forgot to even list MIB International and Gemini Man when I posted, so that should tell you everything about those.
