It is not really considered one of the major blockbusters this fall in terms of box-office expectations.
Amazing Spider Man opened on a Tuesday. If you took just its first three days (Tues-Thurs), it made $75m. If it opened on a Friday the weekend total probably would have been much higher.VENOM DOMESTIC OW: $62.0M
FANTASTIC BEASTS 2 DOMESTIC OW: $77.0M
AQUAMAN DOMESTIC OW: $55.3M
Rationale:
Venom - we doin' Amazing Spider-Man numbers, fam
FB2 - Harry Potter historical sequel bump
Aquaman - Jumanji's Christmas 2017 performance. LOL.

Venoms trailer has 68 million views. That is one of the highest of any film this year. Its second trailer is over 30 mil, also one of the highest for trailer 2s this year.I just assumed it was cuz the thread said fall, and it comes out in Winter. But I guess Aquaman rejects that rule. Potentially Spider-Man, and probably Mary Poppins will make more than some of these. Anyone thinking Venom will outgross Mary Poppins is crazy. Beloved franchise, Lin Manuel Miranda, and a movie catering to the usually neglected female market? It's going to clean up
Yes, the trailer views have been pointed out lolVenoms trailer has 68 million views. That is one of the highest of any film this year. Its second trailer is over 30 mil, also one of the highest for trailer 2s this year.
I mean without question Venom is the most anticipated movie of the fall/winter as of right now. It generates the most buzz online by far in social media as well. Its not crazy to say Mary Poppins will gross less, because every indication we have currently is Venom will he the biggest movie of the fall.

i swear to god
Forecasting this weekend has been interesting as Sony came out in mid-September with a tracking note for Venom, pointing to a debut around $55-60 million, which would suggest a new October opening weekend record. Since then things haven't changed too much, though mostly negative reviews for the film have resulted in a disappointing Metacritic score of 34 and a 31% on RottenTomatoes. While audiences pre-determined to see the film regardless of reviews will still show up, negative word of mouth following opening day and poor reviews could hurt the film's three-day longevity.
Looking at IMDb page view performance for the $100 million production shows relatively positive momentum, with it slightly outperforming the likes of Ant-Man over the two weeks leading up to release. It's also outpacing films such as Gravity ($55.8m opening) and The Martian ($54.3m opening), while barely outpacing star Tom Hardy's summer 2015 hit Mad Max: Fury Road ($45.4m opening). That being said, the one big difference between those films and Venom is all of them were positively reviewed.
Taking all factors into account, while Sony has pushed the film's debut to a whopping 4,250 theaters, we see this one finishing around $60 million for the weekend. While there is some data that suggests a performance closer to $50 million or as high as $70+ million, the current evidence is mostly pointing toward a debut settling in the middle of that range.
So Venom ended up with around an $80 million opening weekend. Definitely much higher than I predicted, and a far cry from the 100+ mil some thought as well. Still, Sony must be ecstatic at this, I'll be curious to see how the second and third week drops are.
THEY CAN'T SILENCE THE TRUTH!

Tough to say for RT. Venom will be rotten for sure, FB2 I have no idea, probably fresh but with a middling review average. Aquaman I'm gonna say mid 50s to low 60s.
I do hope Aquaman will prove me wrong though. I want it to be great and do well. But that date kinda sucks.
VENOM DOMESTIC OW: $77.8M

In the end, the big winner is probably going to be Wreck it Ralph 2 or Grinch this fall. One of those animated movies will break out and make all the money, at present, I'm hoping it's Ralph 2.
