Looks like a $50 to $55 million domestic opening weekend. Budget of $97 million.

I have a feeling the actuals will be a bit below expectations lol

I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like they did a very poor job advertising this. I thought it was yet another DC TV show.

another thing is harleys content is borderline zany and wacky or plain crazy fun. wonder which harley will this be

It's a team movie but you wouldn't know that from the marketing none of their marketing did anything but shove HARLEY QUINN in your face so most people who don't read comics probably thought it was the girl version of JOKER

I guess trolls can use it to say it didn't make much when that only counts for midnight showings on a weeknight.

It is real easy to compare thursday showings... just one quick look on google and you can see that BOP made waaaay less than Logan, Deadpool, and Joker. Even made 30% less than Shazam. Believe it or not you can then use data to adjust your weekend estimates.

That one is bad.

The other three were pretty huge releases comparatively, Shazam's more on BoP's level.

I have no stake in this but I am sick to death of Joker and Harleyquin

not that they are bad characters mind I just feel like they were done to death years ago, Joker felt old hat when Heath Ledger played him and Leto out the nail in the coffin

Cant we have some NEW ideas?

Its like that Picard TV show. Yes everyone likes Picard but he only exists because someone introduced him rather than rehashing Kirk

Now bringing him back feels like bringing back Kirk for next generation

Have you never heard of Thursday previews? The first weekend along with Thursdays are when they have the most showtimes in a movies's run.

$4 million is not bad for smaller movies, but nothing great for something like BoP.

I've heard the movie is decent but the visual stylings of Birds of Prey (and Suicide Squad) are just super unpleasant to me. I have zero desire to see the movie and I mean see literally.

And that isn't even touching on having a BoP movie without Babs. It just shouldn't happen.

No, marvel fanboys don't realize that competition is good so they hate everything DC before they can even see it.

Movie was fun.

Yea no Oracle is really weird but DC seem intent on pretending Oracle/Killing Joke never happened for some reason.

Im not sure why people like Harley Quinn so much.

I mean, they must be trying to tap into some kind of market with Suicide Squad, Birds of Prey, and whatever that animated show is with her and Ivy.

A lot has happened since Batman TAS. There's new source material, and a lot of it.

I heard this is DC's lowest opening since Jonah Hex, and possibly the lowest super hero opening ever?

I think it is the plot. WW is based of feminist ideologies and that was well received by everyone, Harley Quinn was in SS even though it sucked and same with Black Widow. This idea that all the misogynists come out of the woodwork cause a female superhero movie is BS.

Theatrical I'm pretty sure. It's easy to miss though. It's on the computer screen in the same scene Alfred is talking to Bruce after he has the Knightmare dream.

You were probably paying attention to the actors and not the screen.
