lol... I don't know about that man. I know AC/DC has their fans, but I think most of their stuff felt old to me by the time I was a teenager. It might have gotten a few more early GenXers in seats, maybe?
I think I could count on one hand the amount of movies I've ever heard people really praise a soundtrack. The only one that comes to mind right now is the first Guardians of the Galaxy. They tried to recreate that again with a 90's soundtrack, but Captain Marvel was a joke.

I think when we look back we're going to realize that the "music" coming out today is already dated 6 months later. There's a lot of reasons for that, but outside of a few songs here and there, it's all so samey sounding highly-overproduce and generic and fake.
Love them or hate them, people are still going to remember the Rolling Stones long after they've forgotten about Ariana Grande or Bruno Mars.
You put this shit in your movies today, they are going to age like curdled milk like you made a stupid parody movie with nothing but current pop-culture references in it.
I think they should go back to putting orchestral and other non-pop music in movies. OG Superman soundtrack? Iconic. Indy Trilogy music? Iconic. OG Star Wars trilogy music? Iconic. All of them timeless.
I never watched any Disney Star Wars shit, and I'm pretty sure it's not the case, but it wouldn't surprise me to hear they had tracks from Drake and Lizzo every 5 minutes. Maybe that "I'm a Woman" song from the Batwoman TV Show when General Pink Hair was making a bitch out of one of the dirty, no-good persons with male genitalia in front of the whole crew?
In another 10 years, we will all look back at cinema and TV between 2017 and 2024 and collectively throw all that DEI woke trash in the fucking bin where it belongs and set it all on fire.
And by that time, most of the people making "music" today will have already been long forgotten about as well.

I'd have to look deeper to see if I agree with that for sure, but I think you're right about it.
I said right after weekend 1 it's not very likely to break even and it needs $470 Million to do that. Nothing about weekend 2 changed my mind either.
......
It's still $114 Million away from your $440 Million number, and it grossed $16.5 Million on weekend 3 in the states. International share is 52.3% of the revenue so far, so whatever little gains they get going forward in the US should basically be doubled.
$8 Million next weekend if they're very lucky with the new movies that are coming out. ($16 million then, worldwide). Aside from Cheap Seat Tuesday, most of the weekdays this week should be much closer to only $1 Million per day than $2. Add another $5 Million US for the week and $10 Million Worldwide.
Best case scenario, after weekend 4 they'll have $30-$35 Million more than they do right now, and I think that number is extremely generous.
And that generous number only gets them to $360 Million.
I don't think this one is going to break $400 Million, let alone $440 Million buddy.
But Bruce does always find a way to make $8 Million or so in international money magically appear late in a big-budget movie run, so they could possibly do it.
But no. Zero chance Thunderbolts makes $440 Million.
