Don't know what the validity of a daily box Office considering Disney notoriously buys seats

Not 100% confirmed. But we all know they bought RT off, so that site is useless.

Dumbo got 47% on Rotten Tomatoes, and a low 58% audience score. Also it's only made $79,878,510 domestic after 2 weeks, and $18,588,560 in China. You'd think Disney had more pull than that, considering how y'all are claiming they have so much power.

They only use their powers when absolutely necessary. They knew from the start Dumbo wasnt going to be huge success. No need to use the dark Sith powers for it. They will make up for it with streaming/DVD sales. RT and Disney are corrupt as shit. Same as all major companies, part of the game. Good examples of the evil Sith powers would be the new Star Wars films, they cant let those get bad reviews and also the new Captain Marvel, nah they need the MCU and SW to keep succeeding no matter what.

Didn't help the Solo film not flop hard, did it? $213,767,512 Domestic, $392,924,807 WW with a $275 million production budget.

They fucked Solo up from the start, not to mention all the money they spent on re shoots. But hey they still managed to get a 70% on RT. Dont know how the TLJ got a 91%! Rogue One was the only new SW I liked so far.

Well that was because of the disaster of the Last Jedi lmao

Wow, a daily check B.O. check in...interesting.

You're correct, it's VERY interesting.

Thursday's $2.375 million brings its 7 day total to $69,775,140.

Green Lantern's 7 day total was $70,961,421.

Domestically there's almost no separating them!

The next update will be on Sunday, George.

Its predicted to stay at #1 this week despite Hellboy starting today.

And not for nothing Gus Gorman, but what are you trying to prove by continually comparing GL to Shazam, exactly? Yes, their B.O. numbers are VERY similar, BUT...GL's budget was a whopping $200 million whilst Shazam's is HALF that! Plus may want to factor in a tiny bit for 8 years worth of inflation! Just a little food for thought. Shooo, even Marvel's Ant Man, a more comparable movie then GL, had a higher budget ($130 mill). Shazam is NOT a failure if that is ulimately what your trying to prove. If I'm misunderstanding your intent, my bad! slight_smile

Shazam is def not going to flop. Especially due to its low budget. It wont do Aquaman numbers or even Wonder Woman but it will do just fine. And DC cant afford to buy out whole cinemas like the MCU can! joy

$25 million 2nd weekend, 53℅ drop which is pretty good.

Total domestic gross is $95 million.

Green Lantern is now in the rear view mirror!

A -53% drop is really good. With a Worldwide of $258,326,527 and still number 1 at the box office, it looks like its doing pretty good.

$100 million domestic was achieved yesterday!

Well, it made its budget back right here in the good 'ol USA and that's GREAT (I know, I know..doesn't include advertising/marketing costs, but a win is a win). Glad its seeing some success..its got one more weekend to bring in some $$$ before all theaters are dedicated to EndGame!

A final post to commemorate WB pulling this from theaters.

The only watchable DCEU film apart from Wonder Woman. It was well reviews, has the second best IMDB rating after Wonder Woman. Aquaman somehow made a billion despite being a pile of crap. Made it half way through and couldn't be bothered to finish. I guess the same people who like the Fast and Furious series liked it. Still crap though.

Anyway, the point is WB should consider this a win. On 100m budget 360m is in no way a flop.
