Box Office: ‘Avatar 2’ Crossing $900M Globally as New Holiday Movies Get Iced

COURTESY OF 20TH CENTURY STUDIOS
Outside of Avatar: The Way of Water, a brutal weather system named Storm Elliott is taking the merriment out of holiday moviegoing at the North American box office.
The bomb cyclone has brought freezing temperatures, high winds, snow and ice to a wide swath of the country. Traditionally, the Christmas corridor is one of the most lucrative times of the year for Hollywood studios and theater owners. This year is an exception, between a less crowded marquee, Storm Elliott and ongoing concerns about COVID-19, the flu and the RSV virus. Another bummer: It’s never great when Christmas Eve falls on a Saturday and Christmas on a Sunday. Put another way, studios are already looking to next week to make up for lost ground.
It doesn’t seem 5 minutes when we talking about it coming to the cinema, now it’s on itv, how fast has those 16 months gone (scary)
One more thing maid, your bumchum Magnus who you looked upto, said this would be the best quarter, which argued with, guess what this December is on course to be the worst since 1999, November October wasn’t very good, so that makes April - June the best quarter you can’t argue with facts, just check out mojo box monthly US
Us box office top ten you might learn something maid
https://www.imdb.com/chart/boxoffice
Maid I never said the box would collapse because of New York i said it would effect box office takings, Which has, just look at (I wanna dance with somebody) completely collapsed this weekend, exspected to 12-15 million, only took 7 million, I bet you didn’t even know that film & Babylon was even out did you ?
O bless you maid, but why would I dissapear like your silly little friend Magnus, where is he now btw ? I’ve been on here for over 2 years, seen the likes of Magnus Poorinvester Lapdown all disappear. It’s a known fact that New York & La are the main aress for us box office tickets, it’s already been made public that the storm hit the box office in New York. Now let’s talk why I say the us box office is very important topgun maverick biggest film of the year (us box office 715 million dollars uk box office 100 million box office) Avatar 2 US box office 270 million dollars, uk box office roughly 20 million maybe a bit higher, see the difference little man ?
Hexam I wasn’t disagreeing with you, it’s just little pricks like maid lol. We should see over 1 billion by New Year’s Day. It’s all about those legs, i still hasn’t seen it myself yet. Let’s hope the new year brings good news, we can all definitely agree on that
This was what said about the low takings of Whitney film
the United States and Canada, I Wanna Dance With Somebody was released alongside Babylon, and was initially projected to gross $12–15 million from 3,625 theaters over its four-day opening weekend.[1][16] The film made $2 million on its first day, including $750,000 from Thursday night previews. It went on to debut to just $5.3 million in its opening weekend (and a total of $7.5 million over the four days), finishing third behind Avatar: The Way of Water and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish. Deadline cited the threat of a tripledemic surge in COVID-19 and flu cases and the nationwide impact of Winter Storm Elliott as reasons for lower-than-expected theater attendance.[17][18]
I know hexam, I was just trying to state I would love it if maid’s fantasy came true
My personal opinion worldwide it will end up beating maverick, but I just can’t see it getting past 700 million in the us, thou who would of thought it about maverick after 2 weeks, & avatar one was a total flop after week one, so let’s see
Cruise is non shorter ?
I would absolutely love it if avatar 2 got to 5 billion, but it’s absolutely the most stupid statement I have ever seen on here. Let’s alll hope for 2 billion world wide, but it’s the us that counts, obviously it does help in the uk, but only a fraction unfortunately
In 2021, Cineworld Group plc's global revenue amounted to approximately 1.8 billion U.S. dollars – less than 42 percent of the 4.37-billion-dollar result reported two years earlier. Out of the 2021 total, 1.22 billion dollars (almost 68 percent) came from the cinema circuit operations in the United States. Two years before, the U.S. accounted for more than 73 percent of Cineworld's revenue worldwide. Regal Cinemas, a division of Cineworld, was among the leading cinema circuits in the U.S. and Canada by number of sites in 2020.

So maid is hoping cineworld will make money worldwide? Even thou most of cinemas are in the us & uk. Please don’t listen to the fool
Maid yet again you are making yourself look stupid, I ask you this where are most of cineworld cinemas, I’m pretty certain the USA & the uk, I might be wrong, but that comes from mooky himself
Maid you are a complete clown, cause I have pointed out the obvious your fantasy, you class me as a shorter, when i have been here for 2 years + the biggest grossing film avatar one 2.8 billion including China gross, avatar 2 flopped in China cause of covid Russia is a no go. You are saying it will take over 2 billion more than avatar one, when we not even sure it will get to 1.5 billion, I hope it does. O & btw maverick ran & ran & took just under 1.5 billion.
Elvis 1.5 billion would be good, 2 bllion would be fantastic, but considering cineworld is mostly in the us, where maverick took just over 700 million & avatar 1 has taken, I think about 800 million with re releases
Taking in inflation gone with the wind took over 3 billion
Sorry 2.9 billion
Well maid considering the the biggest grossing film of all time worldwide is 2.8 billion (avatar)I think 5 billion is the most stupid thing anyone has ever posted on this board, clearly you have no understanding of the box office. 1.5 billion would be a win, but considering most of the theatres are in the us (reagnal) I will be happy with 400-500 million in the us alone
