$600m at least.No. It's looking like $575Mish to me. Outside shot at $600M, but Hotel Transylvania 3 will probably stop that.
Incredibles 2 isn't even out in the UK yet and other countries like Germany and Spain. UK is buzzing for Incredibles 2.

It probably is the bottom baseline for the MCu. It's still a profitable property for them though and one that they already have cast for and a lot of the work that goes into building franchises done. Pair that with Marvel liking to make 3 films for their solo acts and I dont see why they wouldn't make one.
Keep the budget low, fill out a schedule, and get another smaller scale profitable film. They will make new properties as well but those take longer to get going than something like an Ant-Man 3 would.
The fact this made the same OW as Strange even though Scott wasn't in IW is impressive plus Marvel is banking on Scott's A4 appearance to be a factor.
Plus Strange 2 is getting a sequel is locked so you can't say Marvel is like Antman 3? i dunno. Again, it's likely they are gonna do a Homecoming and add someone else.
It's also not like they're making an Ant-Man movie every year. The last one was in 2015. AM3 being in 2021 and closing out the trilogy sounds about right.It probably is the bottom baseline for the MCu.

A. made more than the first one
B. his next role is Avengers 4
C. I'm sure he doesn't give a fuck about being a big star since if you seen his resume, dude does anything he thinks will be good.
Same level I mean.
To be fair, Duncan Jones did Moon and Warcraft... Yeah what fuck happened there?
Duncan Jones can't write an original movie script? Jones co-wrote Mute. Moon was written based of a story of his but written by Nathan Parker. Warcraft was based the lore of the games.Same level I mean.

I think Ant Man 1s success and the suggest of IW should have pushed it over at least the origin story of a dude nobody has ever heard of. I don't know why this sequel has less appeal than Dr Strange (pre-movie). I don't follow this stuff much but I definitely read a large number of posts in previous threads predicting a big boost to AM2 because of IW. I believed those posts ¯\_(ツ)_/¯I'm not sure why Ant-Man would get a particularly substantial bump from a movie it's largely unrelated to. You're not gonna get an automatic boost just by releasing in close proximity to another movie. The post-Avengers sequels (particularly Iron Man 3) got huge boosts because they followed up on characters they loved from Avengers. Ant-Man 1 didn't get shit from Ultron because the two were 100% unrelated.
The Ant-Man films have been more or less separate from the MCU beyond passing references in those films, and Civil War. And when Scott Lang's biggest connection to the rest of the MCU is being Giant Man briefly in a the airport fight with a dozen other higher profile heroes, there's not too much to gain from that either.
Also, compared to Dr. Strange (and even more so, Guardians), Ant-Man has comparatively smaller appeal, so I'm not sure why coming under Strange is particularly notable. Regardless, it's showing good growth, so obviously things are looking up.
Ant-Man is easily the most niche MCU sub-series and it's going to stay comparatively niche until the characters have much more significance to the universe. Strange is gonna get a huge boost from Infinity War for his inevitable sequel, and if Ant-Man can end up being important to A4, maybe it can finally break out into numbers comparable to the others. But for now it's behaving more like a well-made super hero movie featuring a B-list hero that's not part of the Avengers... because that's what it is, lol.
Yep, $75-85 mill is about what I expected, hell, I'm one of the biggest MCU fans on this site (look at my avi) but I thought the people who were expecting $100 mill were being ridiculous
It's coming in the middle of a packed summer blockbuster season, and didn't seem to be required MCU watching besides being the first movie released after IW
There just was little hype around the movie, but it will still make a decent amount of money
Still excited as hell to see it later this week
Ant-Man and the Wasp are getting a 3rd movie (with Hank completing his arc into full-on villainy), a role as part of the Avengers, and ride at a Disneyland park.
Book it.
If you can't bother to make Ant-Man work, you might as well give up on all the even lesser known and more fantastical characters people are hoping get their own films.
I was thinking more like a ride that is in something like Hank's Quantum ship where you fly through locations in different sizes, of course getting to fly along side mini and giant Scott and Hope and ants. Then by the end there is a trippy sequence shrinking down to the Quantum Realm.I'm surprised we haven't gotten a Bug's Life style attraction at one of their parks for Ant-Man where they just make a bunch of oversized stuff and you wander around feeling really small.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯How strong do we think that OS for Incredibles 2 will end up being?
A fairly even split would mean $1.2-1.4B, so that wouldn't be so bad.I remember predicting a while ago that Incredibles 2 would end up pretty evenly split between Dom/OS and would barely pass $1b if it did at all and I'll feel real bad if that's what happens (even though that'd still be a huge increase over the first movie).
What if I told you that there was a white guy on a horse in this?A fairly even split would mean $1.2-1.4B, so that wouldn't be so bad.
It's just a tad hard to guesstimate what it has left since the top animation earner in something like the UK usually tops out at $50-60M, but they liked Toy Story 3 to the tune of $100+M. Now if I were to put in effort and do maths and other dark arcane arts I could probably come up with a reasonable number but that would require effort and as I stated above I'm lazy.
Is he really pale and indie looking though? (No I'm still not gonna put in too much effort)What if I told you that there was a white guy on a horse in this?
Good local fare almost always "overperforms" compared to imported Hollywood fare when it comes to Europe, so it's the other way around.Everything is just too close together. It would be good if it they finally started to spread shit out. I mean putting your own shit up against Incredibles 2 is crazy imo.

Dudes really happy to see Pual Rudd take an L? What's wrong with ya'll?

When you eat spicy Indian food and have to go hard.
We are a bit more than half way through the year. Here's my report card for the 2018 releases that I have seen to date:
Sicario 2: D
With Wasp, it now has 12 of them! But they're still very small.I hope Ant-man has some good legs. Movie was hilarious and a nice small scale.
But you can't fight the friction... :(I was excited for Ant-Man and Wasp a few months ago, but then I sat through that shitty trailer like 20 times and now I can't be bothered to go see it. Same thing is almost definitely going to happen to me with Mission Impossible. I get less hyped every time I see that thing.
Even sarcastically, panic about what?
Ant-Man grossed about exactly what it deserved. It's good, not great, and I don't think its performance has any bearing on the state of the MCU.
