easy to call it after the 1st weekend...call it before lets c who knows what they are talking about...




it`s DC so i`m going low....

1st Weekend = 99 Mill

Entire Run = 799 Mill

( the Chinese & kids saves it ...)

 

[THREAD_CRITIC]

40-50 opening

350-400 total

 

[TEN]

I had to google shazam to know what the funk you're yapping about

 

[tallblacknyc]

Aquaman might have bumped up this movie value... I would've def said under 70 mil b4 but I don't know if aquaman gave dc New hope

 

[crazycac50]

The movie is the best DC joint by a wide margin so I'm going to say it tops a billion WW.

 

[praetor]

Ant-man and the Wasp did 622 total worldwide and the trailers for that looked better than this.

I'll say 550 mil total.

Avengers was too sad for some, people want a laugh now. Shazam will do better than expected but not break any records

 

[keith6]

saw a sneak preview last nigh.it was packed. very funny. I give it a B

 

[mimicman]

Weekend-$173 million
Entire Run-$989 million

 

[lightbright]

another DC mediocrity …….



.

 

[Complex]

I'm seeing good reviews for it

The trailers sucked

I was more interested in seeing Pet Sematary

 

[TimRock]

I think it will do well. In all honesty, i think it's better than all the other DCEU movies, minus Man of Steel. And i went into Shazam expecting it to be horrible, shit, if i hadn't gotten the email for an early screening, i wouldn't have even known when it was coming out.

[fonzerrillii]

I agree with you slam... I’d say entire run around 750 to 800.... I think China will be the key for this. I think this movie will translate well for them..

 

[Complex]

Aquaman did 67, right?

Antman did 75

So I'm going to say 45

thats whats making it hard to predict ...smh

 

[slam]

whats gonna help its numbers is Pet Sematary is R rated so no comp there ...

Cap Marvel will be winding down so will Peele`s movie...

Yeah, but people are going to be looking towards Avengers at the end of the month...not this

Marvel might to DC n move up the release date of Avengers...

remember they moved it up last yr...i think like 2 wks....

 

[Deezz]

That shit looks so corny. I guess it's getting good reviews though. I'll wait until Slam posts it on the board, then I'll check it out.

It's a good family flick best DC by far but I forgot about avengers coming out in a few weeks

 

[TENT]

145 million first week thanks to Aquaman and Captain Marvel. They are going the funny kid friendly route. It will do well.

 

[slam]

hmmm..might have to revise my estimates...

cant under estimate the power of the Kid $$$$$$$

 

[playahaitian]

I think the thing that is going to make this pop is kids

They didnt want to go opening week

But i gotta take them to see it this weekend. And probably ms marvel again in 4dx.

It wont do aquaman numbers...

The promotion was less and the leads are not popular enough.

I say worldwide under a billion

But it will have LEGS which is rare these days.

I can see uncle @slam estimates but higher.

 

[Daddy43205]

I have s feeling it will flop for a superhero hero just doesn’t look good.

 

[joneblaze]

The advance showing i attended was sold out. People even showed up dressed like Shazam and Superman

PRAISE: I admit i went in with low expectations because of all the jokey and wacky scenes from the trailers and ads.But boy was i pleasantly surprised !!
The movie is charming and then some.
What a charming and likeable cast !!
Asher Angel and Zachary Levi as William "Billy" Batson / Shazam are in sync in their fun portrayal of the character.
Mark Strong as Dr. Thaddeus Sivana is sinister and then some !!
Jack Dylan Grazer,Djimon Hounsou,Grace Fulton,Ian Chen,Jovan Armand,Faithe Herman,Cooper Andrews,and Marta Milans are also quite terrific.
From the films first frames and throughout i was pulled in to the story and cared about the characters.The film takes it time to provide a good back story.At one point in the movie i said to myself yes !! you are giving me that very good balance of light and dark.Speaking of dark this film goes dark a few times and some of the violence may be to much for small children.
There is a strong message about the strength of family throughout the film.The jokes from the trailers work so much better in the context of the film.

PROBLEMS:There is some old hat corniness in the film.That dryness that made me think of some bad comic book films from the past.There are some jokey moments i could have done without.The CGI is choppy here and there in the film.


If you were ever a Shazam fan this is the movie for you !!
Make sure to stick around for the mid credits scene !!

Scale of 1-10 an 8

 

[saundman]

83 Mil opening weekend

700 million in the end

 

[tallblacknyc]

So according to some of you guys that seen this movie... This is a rare case where Hollywood made a shitty trailer for a good movie...interesting

[CptMARVEL]

Shazam is gonna make 2 Billion dollars in 2 weeks!!!!
But then again, I might be somewhat... "biased".

 

[slam]

real spit tho ...b some shit if it threatens Aquaman for DC supremacy ....

 

[Quek9]

that shit looks like it is going to be awful.

 

[LennyNero1972]

Imma say 120 million 1st weekend total 800 million to a billion. Remember DC does have a lot of fans and Aquaman gave them the shot in the arm they needed.
