I still want Cameron to work with Bale and Crowe to see the ego Bomb from space.
Is 700 WW still possible?

I enjoyed it but I never read the books. It apparently differs from the books a lot and skips things. Apparently according to my husband (who had read the books), it's not supposed to be just like the book (all I could get from him cause he wants me to read the books and he didn't want to spoil it is
it's a repeat of events in different ways or something like that

Saw Atomic Blonde and was very satisfied. Not the kind of movie I expected, but it's what I wanted.
Dumb title.

Its 34 million away from 700? That should be possible?

It could get to $700m just in current markets and it hasn't opened in China or Japan yet.
It's going to do more than 800 WW unless it's doing far worse in Japan and in China than the previous movies
700 WW is a lock
It will easily get to $700M with the current territories. Homecoming is only about $1.5M behind Suicide Squad now, with much bigger weekdays. I'm expecting a finish of $325M, even if late legs drop off from Suicide Squad.

Last I heard Japan ADORES Spider-Man. He's like the biggest western super hero over there.
Eh, no, its more that this is a thread where I have no idea if people are joking or are serious unless kwinston is posting.
I know, but all the time I see Boxoffice numbers from Japan it looks like the third biggest movie market looks movies worth for below 10 million dollar at the opening weekend.
It was already answered in this thread. 700m ww is a lock. 100m from China and Japan is realistic yes.
Amazing Spider-Man made a bit less than $90M between China and Japan. ASM2 made about $125M between the two.
Every MCU film since 2014 has made at least $100M in China, except for GotG1, which made around $95M (Mojo messed up the China number listed on GotG1's foreign page last month for reasons that are only known to them. It was 595M RMB, where 1 RMB was worth about $0.16 USD at the time).

I guess Homecoming is likely to land somewhere between Spider-Man's $821m and Spider-Man 3's $890m then, probably much closer to the former.

When is Spider-Man releasing in China? Will Wolf Warriors 2 stab and/or shoot and/or give it the middle finger, whatever that movie is about judging from the trailer.
Spider-Man launches early September, I think it was the 4th

It's fitting that he talks about how he doesn't find them relatable and how aliens aren't the bad guys in his film because Valerian definitely felt like a movie made by aliens trying to make humans relatable.

"Men fall from the sky, the gods hurl thunderbolts, innocents die. That's how it starts, sir. The fever, the rage, the feeling of powerlessness that turns good men... cruel."
He is european. Its just not a that big part of our culture like in america. Remember Roland Emmerichs statements when he was asked during the promo for Indipendence Day 2?

I'm also European. That doesn't mean I go around showing my ass while my garbage movie bombs. It's just embarrassing and has nothing to do with being European.
he can make a bad movie and is still allowed to say that he doesnt like superhero movies.
Its a better statement then if he would lie just to please the internet.
But I wanna use my little emotes. 😢
What is he supposed to say when he is being interviewed and asked about the difference between French, Japanese and American comics?
It has been so quiet I assumed that everyone involved has decided to (wisely) cancel this theatrical premiere.
Glass Rebel

He's allowed to say whatever he wants and I am allowed to say that his statements are embarrassing.
I think he could start with a more informed opinion for starters. If he can't relate to superheroes because of their superpowers, he seems to be missing the point entirely. Which, again, is not surprising since Valerian shows that he doesn't even know how regular humans work anymore.

After seeing that preview for IT, and seeing Annabelle's B.O. for the weekend (that preview goes on the front of a bunch of these Annabelle screenings, I believe)
I think 50 is lowball for IT.
I think floor is now 60.
Ceiling might be 80.
(is excitement taking hold and leading to rash prognostication? mayyyybe.)

Luc Besson, you're all right.
