Avatar 2 is #3 at $2,293,697,185 on All Time Worldwide Box Office.
That means 6ix doesn't understand numbers higher than the $718,732,821 US Box Office for Top Gun Maverick.

It was supposed to be number 1. All the articles and critics predicted it would be number 1.

Quote:Serenity (2005) was predicted to be number 1. All the articles and critics (who were Browncoats) predicted it would be number 1. I wonder what happen? $40,319,440 is what happened. Production Budget: $39,000,000. Where is the Firefly Trilogy? Nowhere!

I know exactly what happened.
Browncoats were just as biased to Serenity as all the woke-turd critics that will soon be unemployed were to Avatar 2.
OPPS!

Oh... and it should be noted that I found Maverick to be merely entertaining, and not much more than that myself. My review here after seeing it wasn't' exactly glowing. It was a fun to watch throwback to the 80's without much substance to it. A nice popcorn movie is all.
And just like Joker, it's a movie that I will probably never watch a 2nd time.
I'm just having fun cataloging woke trash like A2 fall to another Blockbuster just like I was having fun cataloging woke trash like whatever Star Wars movie was out at the time fell to Joker.
Good times.

A2 loses 485 more theaters, down to 1,190 from 1,675 last week.
Maverick was still being shown in 2,962 theaters at this point in its run.
Maverick's lead is now $9,948,060 after Day 90 (Wednesday) and will be over $10 Million entering the 14th weekend.

Maverick's Weekend 14 Take: $4,722,491
A2's Predicted Weekend 14 Take: $1,620,000
If true, that will put Maverick at well over a $13 Million lead after the weekend is over.
Weekend 15 for Maverick was also a bit of a revival and added 151 theaters, recorded a 27% increase over the previous weekend at $6,014,128, and saw it back at Number 1 for the weekend, up from Number 4 the previous weekend. (And also saw it just one day shy from locking in $700 Million Domestic).
No such thing will happen to A2 next weekend, and it will likely struggle to break $1 Million at the box office during Weekend 16.
Normally, with a movie as huge as A2 I would predict that they'd wait a few more weeks and re-open it in a decent number of theaters and try to get one last squeeze out of it before the run officially ends, but it's just too pricey to keep in theaters because of the overhead and it's already being shown in about only 1/3rd the amount of theaters that Maverick was at this point and is failing to bring in any real numbers.
We're still 12 days shy of the halfway point of Maverick's original Box Office run and I think A2 is just about to be pulled from theaters entirely.
I give it one more month, and would honestly be extremely surprised if you could still watch it in theaters by the end of April.

Day 95: Maverick's lead is $13,212,076.
Big weekend for Maverick coming up. Lead should be extended to around $18.5 Million after Sunday.
After that, the final lead in the Domestic Box office is really just dependent on how soon they pull Avatar out of the theaters. Maverick's numbers almost certainly will be higher every day it stays in theaters from here on out, but the numbers for both will be small enough that it will just be incremental gains after Sunday.

I still don't know why Bruce had lowered his prediction for A2's final take all the way down to only $660 Million domestically a week or two back. I said at the time I thought that was way too low.
I think theater counts are really going to drop soon and the new Marvel drek comes out this weekend, but it's already at $649+ Million. Even though it won't come close to touching Maverick's $718+ Million, it will beat $660 Million by quite a bit, IMO.
Until we have more info after this weekend, I'm going to split the difference and call it $689 Million for A2's final domestic take. But really that depends on how quickly the Theater Owners want to get it out of their theaters. If it doesn't come close to Maverick's 203 days in the theaters, it probably isn't going to make another $40 Million, so the high cost of showing it coupled with the high ticket prices might really hurt it on the back end, like I predicted quite a while ago.
So Bruce's final numbers for A2 was $660 Million, and my final prediction for A2 was $689 million back on February 15th. That would be another $10,534,112 before it's out of theaters. It still surprisingly pulled in another $4.1 Million last week after a stronger than expected weekend 15 and a pretty huge drop in theater counts.
It's hard to say what's going to happen until we know the theater counts next weekend, but it looks like it will probably hit $689 in the next 3 weeks. If the run ends there, both my prediction for the final numbers and the length it will be in theaters will be right. This is a probable outcome given the overhead for A2 and the fact it's already being shown in 1/3 of the theaters that Maverick was at this point in the run.
Maverick spent most of the back half of its run making double digits per theater during the week and low triple digits per theater on the weekends, falling to merely $25 per theater on it's 203rd and final day in theaters. In a lot of places, that was the cost of a single ticket for A2.
Maybe they'll keep A2 open in just a handful of theaters in major cities and keep interest up with the exclusivity of the thing and hang on for a few more months to try to crack $700 Million domestic before the end of the run.
Right now, with a current Day to Day comparison lead of $13,212,076, Maverick's final take after 203 days is $40,266,933 more than A2's current take at 95 days.
