Finally getting to go see it tomorrow night with the kids at camp.
I love watching the box office of a movie like this just plow through expectations. It's up to $480.7 million through Tuesday, that's 18th all-time domestically. It's now $74 million ahead of Dr. Strange. Will be just the 17th movie to reach $500 million domestically.
There's no way in hell Jurassic World will catch up to it.
That means the only things left in its way for 2022 are:
Thor: Love and Thunder - considering it's the first post-Endgame sequel of one of the real "Big Four" Avengers and how big Ragnarok was ($315 million) after the first two Thors were pretty blah at the box office - $181 million and $206 million , and how big Dr. Strange was, and with the enormous cast and more women wanting to see it for Portman (and a Hemsworth nude scene), as long as it doesn't suck, seems like it could do $600 million with 2 huge months of summer left.
Elvis: Can't wait to see it, but not sure anyone under 30 gives a flying *****about Elvis. He died when I was 3 years old and I'm pushing 50.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever - The first one made $700 million, but with no Chadwick Boseman, who knows what it will be like. His charisma was a big calling card for that movie but in some ways I'm more excited that they chose not to recast T'Challa.Could be a really special film done right.
Avatar: The Way of the Water: Seems like $600+ million guaranteed just for the spectacle. If it's a good story, look out.
