Speaking of Deadpool and Wolverine, it’s now passed the 1st Avengers movie in the US and has become the 5th biggest comic book movie domestically of all time.
I have no doubt that Marvel, and Disney in general, is in the Ryan Reynolds business. You'll likely see him popup in lots of things from another Deadpool appearance (or three) to other movies for the Mouse. And based on what I've seen from interviews he appears to be open to doing more with Disney.
I hope so.
I actually think Deadpool & Wolverine’s last weekend in the Top 10 will be the opening weekend of Joker 2.
It goes digital on October 1st, which is usually when movies drops a majority of theaters.
Didn’t hurt Inside Out 2 when it came out on digital August 20th. Nor did it hurt Avengers: Endgame either. As long as it holds its ground and get a boost on Columbus Day Weekend, it should pass Barbie domestically right before it hits Disney+.
Point taken on IO2, however Endgame was prepandemic so it doesn't count as box office rules are different now.
Might still hold well enough to pass Barbie. It hasn’t lost steam so far.
You missed the edit in my post, but I said we'll see on Barbie. DP&W only brought in $5M domestic for all of last weekend, and I think it'll be lucky to get maybe more than half of that this weekend, as its been dropping every weekend for the last few weeks. So we'll see what happens, but if it drops theaters next week it'll be harder.
Harder, but not impossible.
True, its only ~$8M away. I just think it'll be harder, but we'll see what happens.
Indeed we shall.
Disney’s doing well at the box office.
He's happily contributing to other threads, so the more pertinent question is what's changed to have stopped him posting here? I would second the answer given by @Chi84. Keep your fingers crossed for a flop if you'd like to see him back.
