Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness

[waltography]

So here's what I am confused about.

Strange cast a spell so that everyone who knew Spidey's id would forget. So, does that mean that HE forgot? And, if so, does he even remember why he cast that spell in the first place?

Based on the ending of NWH: I believe yes, everyone forgot Peter Parker and no, he doesn't remember why he cast that spell, but that doesn't mean he doesn't remember casting it. MJ still wore the necklace from FFH at the end of NWH, which I interpreted as "she knows it's important but can't explain why."

Looks to be heading to a $200M+ opening which could put it into the MCU top 5 opening weekends -

I mean, wouldn't shock me, but not sure I'm going to believe what the opening weekend number will be a month before opening.

Its based on pre-sale numbers, so its a guess but a very educated one which usually ends up being very close.

Weren't they way off with multiple recent releases (mainly kind of significantly under)? Or maybe I'm wrong, I don't know, I don't follow it that closely. I get the concept, but man, we are like a month away still. That's a month worth of presales to go. I'm sure a lot are done in the first few days, but I'd still hesitate to make a claim like that yet.l

Well even if they are "way off" by being conservative in the numbers that to me gives even more credibility to a potential $200M+ opening weekend.

But that is just my opinion.

Oh I won't be shocked in the LEAST if it does that. I'm maybe more hyped for this personally than Spiderman (and I was stoked for that one). I just think it's early to try and put out actual predictions beyond what you and I are saying (i.e., "I wouldn't be surprised" or "I would guess")

Just as a follow up, boxofficepro sees an uptick in social trends that is leading to a higher ceiling. Also states that following trends with tickets sales is harder because it is a full month long, which is different that what other movies recently have had, so not easily to compare to other films.
