It’s not bad, it’s just weak relative to how well the first movie did. The first movie did 1.3 billion worldwide. This one will probably end up around 850-900 million which is still pretty good.
>250M production without counting marketing >only made 600M
Marketing is usually doubel the production cost, so that's 500M, getting back only 100M is considered doing very poorly
Its a pretty well known fact that the budget for marketing and distribution is seperate from production costs. Considering Disney will take the most invasive approach to sell their movie, it wouldn't be too far fetched to believe that Disney dropped over a hundred mil on ads and making sure Black Panther is the only movie playing in theaters.
Watched football at a bar with some friends, and every fourth ad between games seemed to be BP related. They're really overspending trying to cram this POS down people's throats.
You know making less than the first movie might as well be a bomb right? The Last Jedi made slightly less than Force Awakens & caused the entirety of those rewrites in episode 9 because Disney was hard panicking. This movie doing way below the first film is gonna put some asses to the fire
Sequels almost always make less than first parts. That's just to be expected, especially when the first part was extremely successful itself. The real trouble in this case is that it might struggle to break even.
And I don't think Star Wars rewrites had anything to do with episode 8. That's just a fanboy theory on youtube. They changed writers back to JJ Abrams before episode 8 had even released, apparently because Trevorrow was unable to write the deceased Carrie Fisher out of his script.
There's nothing else playing in theaters this Thanksgiving weekend. Wakanda Forever should easily be able to surpass Doctor Strange 2 by this time next week.
>ONLY 600 MILLION AT BOX OFFICE
Not yet. At the moment it stands at $561 mil worldwide box office, however, it will probably hit the $600 mil mark this weekend.
With a production budget of $250 mil, the film has already made that back and is now $30 mil into the estimated $125 mil it needs to make back its marketing costs. Once it hits $750 mil worldwide, all expenses should be covered and the film will start going into profit. Based on the word of mouth and the performance already, I'm estimating that it will peak at just under $800 mil worldwide, which will earn a small profit for the studio, but a disappointing one.
75% of that is inflated tickets Yidsney bought themselves.
No one cares about this KILL WYPEEPO CINEMERATICK UNIVERSE anymore and hasn't for years. It's over.
According to leftists (pedos) isnt the original Black Panther the greatest film/artistic achievement of all time, and no one even went to see the sequel?
KEK
These movies are made to be forgotten. They don't want the audience lingering too long on any one product because they want you to consume the next one and the next one and the next one. If people were still talking about No Way Home, that would be bad for Wakanda Forever.
>250m overseas
Fricking finally capeshit is finished
>Madea goes to Wakanda
no surprise it does well in USA but not overseas.
This guy is literally the richest actor on the planet, look it up
Shit's fricked
Still enough time to make 1B before they take it out of theatres, moron

yeah i think now that iger back hes gonna remove lgbt scene and try to tap in chink cinema market again
not brie larson. literally dont give a shit
In two weeks, how is that bad

lupita's ass would've saved it but they put a little boy in the panther suit

I pointed this out wakanda sprite out to my Ukrainian roommate at a walmart and he promptly replied "I do no want Black person water".
don't dead sprite inside?
>Zero potential
Unironically what did they mean by this?

It’s bad for a black panther sequel

Based. Mark my words 1B
I can already see the thousand coping threads from the chuds
Still a bad movie 😉
You cannot do anything about it
Go diddle a kid you trans kids freak.
Wut
There's like four new releases this weekend including an animated Disney movie
Anybody who was going to go see this saw it already
Is marvel doing progressively worse?
Yeah and they've pissed off China at this point too I think, I wonder what the next largest foreign market is
>believing any word from the quartering, doomcuck and the rest of the chuds
Lol
Lmao even
>lol lmao even
You guys ever gonna stop beating this Reddit tier dead horse or nah
>I wonder what the next largest foreign market is
Japan, actually, but Black Panther (and Marvel in general) isn't popular at all over there.
India actually
Marvel is big there
>India actually
Wrong, check the numbers.
Not even close. Indian movie tickets are so dirt cheap that films there don't gross anywhere near as much as you'd think.
>and Marvel in general) isn't popular at all over there.
isn't Spiderman and Iron Man popular there?
If Michael B. Jordan had taken over Wakanda, would they betray him or respect their tradition?

I thought this was huge in Central Africa or something?

Wakanda Occasionally
That's actually higher than I expected, but still pretty clear evidence that Marvel is a dead brand.

Sorry, bucklets and nignogs, taking your GF to go see Avatar 2 lol
Oh no Black person sisters,what went wrong???
Disney only bought $500 mil worth of tickets. Should have hit up BlackRock for more.
Top Gun really took the "well no one goes to the cinema because of covid" excuse out of studios mouths
>Still the #1 movie in the world
Racist bros....
Still a bad movie 😉
#1 with no competition and will barely make a profit. Bruh, the israelites sure owned me.
wasted
Nice quintuple
>Raimi comes back after 15 years
>biggest capeshit flick of the year
BOW TO YOUR KING
I wish they'd keep the pitbawd outfit for Wanda.
comes back after 15 years
capeshit flick of the year
5 minute later, like all capeshit
fixed

>talking about No Way Home
What the frick is No Way Home?
>Wakanda Forever.
Wakawhat?
Only because of the studio, just like Spider-Man. Raimi is a hack.
So ... anyway ... does the main girl get a nude scene?
that's a man
Nah, the man died. This one is female. And apparently one of those anti-vax conspiracy nuts. Still want to see her breasts though.
when you make half of the previous movie on higher budget youve failed spectacularly.
I don't understand why every blockbuster has to make 1billion now. Can't Hollywood just make good movies instead?
>Can't Hollywood just make good movies instead?
I'm pretty sure this one is neither. It's capeshit, afterall.
It's over
850M projected in total, this shit will frick Avatar.
>B but they are not the same movie
Blue aquatic homies both
