$160m-$170mHow much does Aquaman cost? That might be fine given that it has the holiday season to fall back on. I wonder how it's legs will actually be though.

Yup. Was a MASSIVE Harry Potter fan up until the last HP film came out. But with JK Rowling's tweets (and likes), her and David Yates' defense of Johnny Depp, all the retconning, and David Yates' horrible job on the franchise in general, I am SO glad it's not doing great.
I know that. As I said, I'm just glad it's not doing great.Unless everyone stops seeing it right now, it's still going to make profit and plenty of money, even if it's lower than the last one. Profit pretty much gaurentees they will make more of them. So you might be disappointed if you hope this is the end for the series.
The franchise still has massive money making potential and is too big to drop just like that.
With a $200m budget and poor legs, that's not guaranteed. It won't be a Solo, but it could be a Justice League.Unless everyone stops seeing it right now, it's still going to make profit and plenty of money, even if it's lower than the last one.

Wreck it Ralph might cut it off at the kneesWith a $200m budget and poor legs, that's not guaranteed. It won't be a Solo, but it could be a Justice League.
What's the tracking on Ralph by the way? I imagine being a sequel to a beloved film, good reviews and the presence of all the Disney Princesses, it's going to be fairly big (Also one can only imagine how much they are going to make on the Disney Princess sleepover outfits this film has).

Have you already mentioned the "Venom is a great boyfriend" stuff?
The marketing in China is the best. Lucasfilm and WB, take notes.
If WB only gets half of the domestic take, 30%-40% of the foreign take and 25% of the China take, then for the first weekend they took in $107m. If (and that's a big if) the sequel hits the same 3x multiplier domestically that takes the dom total to $186m, and if (again, a big if) it gets the same $580m foreign total ($86.9m from China) for a $766m worldwide total, WB gets $312m of that worldwide total. They spent $200m on the production plus whatever they spent on marketing and may only make $312m from it. The profit margin will be slim, if it makes a profit at all.It already made $253m+ worldwide in 3 days, so it's unlikely to lose money at this point. It will definitely be the lowest earner in the HP franchise but I'm sure in the next few weeks it will still rack up a decent amount.

I just wanted to remind people that just because the gross is higher than the budget, that doesn't mean the movie is profitable..
It should break even with BR etc but studios aren't in the buisiness of meager profits with tentpole films.

I don't think it will be a massive flop either, but I think it will make them seriously rethink their strategy for this franchise. Again, more of a Justice League than a Solo, especially if its worldwide gross starts to get closer to Justice League's than the first movie's.Guess we will see in the next few weeks if the drop gets bigger or stays just a little under the first movie but I still don't think this will be a massive flop, even if it's not as high as they had originally hoped.
One would think Warner Bros will give it another go. Maybe finally remove David Yates and give it to someone else.

It should have it's a horrific film.I really did not expect Venom to do these kind of numbers. I for sure thought it was gonna be a huge bomba.
With Carnage they can.
but it'sYeah I finally saw it this weekend and was shocked at how bad it was.
David Yates is making Wizarding World movies until he dies.One would think Warner Bros will give it another go. Maybe finally remove David Yates and give it to someone else.
