Green means that it made more money than I predicted. Red means that it made less. Blue means that I got the prediction right.
I was so close with The Girl on the Train, so even though it made a little bit more than I predicted it would, I’m not going to give it the time of day. I got The Accountant prediction right, but people are still interested in Jack Reacher, so I really missed that one. Inferno really disappointed at the box office. I had it close to thirty million, and it didn’t even get half of that. That’s super weird, because both of the first two Langdon films opened with more than thirty million in the U.S.
- Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice – $873 million
- Captain America: Civil War – $1,153 billion
- Deadpool – $782 million
- Ghostbusters – $229 million
- Independence Day: Resurgence – $389 million
- Sausage Party – $135 million
- Suicide Squad – $744 million
- Star Trek Beyond – $340 million
- Warcraft – $433 million
- X-Men: Apocalypse – $543 million
The numbers above are based on Box Office Mojo, October 30th 2016.
No new additions this month.
