I hope Dune: Part 2 does better financially so that Denis gets enough of a vote of confidence to continue with Dune Messiah. Dune is one of my favorite books, but like many other science fiction series from that era it does suffer a little from an intellectual distant coldness that general audiences don't always connect with. It resonates with me, but global filmgoers can be hard to predict sometimes with more hard sci-fi.
Top Gun: Maverick had multi-generational nostalgia on its side and benefitted from being a respectful sequel to one of the most defining films of its decade. Mission Impossible movies have never even reached $800mil and that was all pre-COVID, so I'm a little skeptical about Dead Reckoning. Maybe if part 1 is excellent and builds up enough momentum, then part 2 can pull it off.
Mission Impossible just like Avatar is not a domestic franchise. I believe it can reach that level it got all the tools behind it. It got the biggest star in the world right now, China now begin to open their doors for blockbuster Hollywood movies. I don’t know I think Tom Cruise with his MI can do it just hope Paramount drop their 45 days streaming window deal last time i heard Tom Cruise is suing the company if they don’t let MI in theaters for 90 days but that news was before Maverick made $1.5 billion 🤷🏽♂️
@@darkgate33 I definitely want it to. The M:I franchise is consistently successful, but somehow still feels underrated. Fallout was one of the best action adventure films of the decade for me.

Really hoping Mission Impossible joins the billion club, Fallout made roughly $800mil - everything we’ve seen in this movie looks utterly incredible and I’d love for as many people to see it as possible!
Oppenheimer will be lucky to crack $500 million. Nolan's last historical drama, Dunkirk made $527 million. I can't see Oppenheimer doing more than that.
I agree. How big is yet to be known. But if any Mission: Impossible movie had a chance to make a billion it's this one. I think it will at least be the most successful in the franchise. And if Dead Reckoning: Part 2 is going to be the last one that may get more people curious to see how it ends.
Dune 2 and Oppenheimer are the only two movies I'm really excited for in 2023. But, I'm an old-ass man and fully aware that in order to make a lot of money these days, movies have to pander to families or teenagers. I can only hope Dune and Oppenheimer is successful enough to encourage these kinds of movies getting made in the future.
There are specialty adult driven films being made from some established directors as well like Scorcese's Killers of the Flower Moon, Ben Affleck's AIR, Francis Ford Coppola's Megalopolis, Michael Mann's Ferrari, Fincher's The Killer to name a few. Also I think Tom Cruise's MI7 could pull an older crowd too even though it's a mainstream action blockbuster film and deserves to be seen and experienced in the theater for sure.

I know this is a long shot, but I’m rooting for Across the Spider-Verse to break a billion dollars due to Spider-Man’s continuing popularity, the enormous amount of positive word of mouth the first movie had, and the countless versions of Spider-Men that are fan favorites like the Spectacular Spider-Man. It doesn’t have to make a billion, but I think it’ll make a giant leap over the first movie that made.

Don’t underestimate Mario. It’s made by Illumination, which is the only animation studio besides Disney and Pixar to have movies make over $1 billion. Minions is the 5th highest grossing animated movie with $1.1 billion, Despicable Me 3 is 9th with over a billion, Despicable Me 2 is 11th with $970 million, and Minions 2 is 14th with $939 million. And out of the top 14, those are the only 4 that are not made by Disney or Pixar. So don’t underestimate an Illumination movie. Especially because Mario is such a popular IP. Like, there were already a lot of people that were super excited to see the Sonic movies. But since Mario is going to be fully animated, it seems to be a lot more faithful to the source material, it’s got an amazing cast with a lot of big name actors, and it’s made by Illumination which means it will have really good animation, and I’m sure Nintendo was involved with making sure that it had good writing too… there are going to be tons of people, both kids and adults that will be super excited to see this movie multiple times. Especially because there are so many adults that grew up with Mario and will see this just for nostalgia, even if they don’t have kids. And the adults who aren’t Mario fans will probably see it anyway, either because of their kids begging to see it, or because of other people telling them how amazing it is.

Little Mermaid: I think Halle Berry has an incredible voice. Wish her hair was just slighter more red. But wow is she beautiful. Excited for it…only thing that will ruin it for me is Halle not being able to keep up acting wise and if they make the sea-life in the same style as the Lion King remake or just make them not talk like in Aladdin remake.

I AM SHOCKED HOW EXCITED I AM FOR THE SUPER MARIO BROTHERS MOVIE!!! I am not a Mario game fan at all!! I suck at Mari games…minus Mario Kart, Donkey Kong, Mario Party, Smash Bros. But wow am I soooo beyond excited to see this animated movie. Which I have not been excited about an animated movie since hmmm maybe Finding Dory? Or Toy Story 3?
The flash is already getting excellent reviews by critics, so I am guessing that can go up on one of the list as making almost billion dollar movie especially since we would see Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton.
Super Mario Bros will be massive One of the most well known characters and franchises on a global scale, a bright & colorful family film. Didn't the last minions film make bank? Yeah this thing will be huge
@@madnessarcade7447 Detective Pikachu was a weird one. It wasn't an exclusive Pokemon film and the way it was marketed prob confused people and yes the timing didn't help
Please don’t wish on it. It’s only gonna make the Ezra controversy even worse. It’s already bad enough that WBD stupidly wants to keep a criminal on the run.
Billion Dollar Movies: (In order of release date) Super Mario Brothers: That thing has a lot of momentum right now. Guardians Vol. 3: Chris Pratt had one of the three Billion movies last year, might get two this year. Fast X: Great track record and making over 700 Million during the pandemic will help it get pushed over the edge this time around. Little Mermaid: Bit skeptical, but the other three major "Renaissance Remakes" have made over a Billion, so it's hard not to include it. Indiana Jones: Gut feeling it will be this year's Top Gun. Heavy nostalgia factor here. Could be even bigger if it gets great reviews. Mission Impossible: Don't bet against Tom Cruise. These movies have gotten better with each installment, though Fallout will be very tough to beat. Best movie I saw in a theater in 2018 by far.
@@mightheal it doesn’t have that same hype effect that No Way Home had and probably Keaton’s return might be years too late. Plus, it’s going up against Indiana Jones 5 and Across the Spider-Verse.
This is what I think 1. Super Mario movie 2. Mission Impossible 7 3. Fast X 4. GOTG3 5. Aquaman 2 6. Transformers 7 7. Indiana Jones 5 8. The Flash 9. Ant man 3 10. The Marvels 1. Marvel will continue the tradition of having its movies in top 10, but there will be a downtrend that will again prevent it from top 3(same as 2022) 2. Super Mario movie will shock everyone and become the highest grossing film of the year. 3. All top 4 movies I mentioned will make a $1B
@@rl8259 plus, with the recent bad word mouth of DC films and Amber Heard’s guilty verdict, i think that chances of getting a billion are very low. Plus the first one wasn’t even good. It was mediocre at best.
Movie of the year is between 4 Mission impossible Guardians of galaxy John wick And Cousin bear personally In terms of box office Fast x Mission impossible Guardians Mario I don’t know about Ant man Watch the flash hit a billion 😂
I‘m kinda shocked Rob forgot his most anticipated CBM in The Flash. I‘m torn because of Ezra but I wanna see Keaton so bad and hopefully an epic scene with Batfleck. If it gets a China release and has great action, I‘d could get to a billion.
You mean the two women? John let them go. The cover story was they were too busy to commit to the schedule of the show. The truth was they just weren't needed. John still did the hosting. All they did was read the letters. No point in paying someone a salary just to do that. John made a mistake but will never admit it

Sorry John I'm going bullish high on this one and This not Mario will be the 1.5+B Highest Grossing Film of the Year) Guardians 3 Aquaman 2(The First one was the first DCEU to hit 1B So I'm not underestimating it) The Marvels(Just Barely) . Close Fast X MI: DR P1(Not one of these has hit a Billion even if they've gotten better and better) Super Mario Bros Across the Spider-Verse Indiana Jones Dune 2 . Outside Chance Hear Me Out: Barbie(Not only do I see Barbie making more then Oppenheimer OW but I see it clearing it WorldWide too) . Out of your Damn Mind How Could you put this as even a possibility: Oppenheimer Hunger Games
Dead reckoning will make a billion especially coming off of top gun plus mission impossible is a franchise that just keeps getting bigger and bigger each movie
Fast and Furious 10, Aquaman 2, The Flash (if it is true as James Gunn said it's one of the greatest superhero movie he has ever been), Mission Impossible 7, Indiana Jones (if it gets reviewed well), Next Transformers etc. movies has chance to touch or cross $1 billion us dollars in the box office
Mario ,guardians and fast x have the best chance and I think dune 2 it's the new Godzilla king of the monsters where people are overating how well that movie it's going to do I think general audiences hated that movie
I seriously think Mario actually has a small chance at being the first animated movie to make 2 billion. I certainly don’t think it will, but if any animated movie could potentially do it, it’s this one.
It’s hard enough for *any* animated film to reach $2bil, let alone one based on a video game. Not only do VG adaptations have a spotty track record, but their appeal is more siloed to specific generations. It appeals to boys like me who grew up playing Mario games, but there’s nothing about it that interests my parents. It doesn’t help that the pandemic started conditioning parents to just wait until animated family movies hit the streaming services. Their box office performance on average has plummeted dramatically.
Like with Aquaman, Little Mermaid will probably treat underwater like most movies do where the actors are on wires and can magically move through it almost as easily as air, so I doubt there will be much comparison. It doesn't really matter that much anyway. Whether it's urban, desert, forest, or water, they're all just biomes to tell a potential story in.
How many more films can join the Billion Dollar Club before it's not a thing anymore? Fifty? A hundred? I'm so old I can still remember when $100 million was unheard of. Now $100 million is almost considered failure
Little Mermaid won't flop but it sure will not get a billion. This is the movie who earn the most dislike for any Hollywood film (2.84 million dislike). To put it in perspective, the previous movie that has the most dislike in RUclips is Cuties (2.4 million dislike) & 2016 Ghostbusters trailer (1.6 million dislikes). Little mermaid dislike surpassed those movie dislike.
@@terryshrk Yes, but the trailer is supposed introduce the film to the viewer. The like and dislike ratio show a percentage on how much viewer think of the show. Cuties & Ghostbuster 2016 got that dislike before people watch it [just trailer] and people still hate the movie once they watch it.
@@syahmioziar5290 But who is disliking it? Would the review bombing haters have gone to see the movie even if it had a white girl playing Ariel? Doubt it so I think the dislike ratio won't have much affect here.
I agree with all their movies. Marvel needs some billion dollar pics. I really think ant man 3 because of Kang has a big chance to get to a billion. I think GOG3 will def make it to a billion. I really want the marvels to get to a billion. If it’s a good film. It will that goes for all 3 of the marvel films. The only one I’m on the fence about is MI and Indiana jones. Those two I just don’t know about. I don’t feel like they have the universal draw. Top gun had nostalgia and the Air Force factor working in its favor. I just don’t see MI getting to a billion. I think Indiana jones will do around 800 mil.
LoL,..why does the MCU "need" to have more billion dollar grossers? Dont, get me wrong, I LOVE and adore the MCU and its the only reason I even have Disney+ but as long as they make money they'll continue the MCU and thats fine. They've been producing 007 movies since the early 1960's and that franchise has remained profitable enough to continue all this time ( from 1964 right up to now LoL) BTW dude,...Top Gun is NOT an Air Force movie,... its a US Navy movie as clearly seen by all the US NAVY aircraft and that HUGE NAVY aircraft carrier in the damn movie and the fact that every main character refers to themselves as "Naval Aviators"! Top Gun did not earn over ONE BILLION just based on nostalgia. It earned all that money because it was an old fashioned simple story that was appealing to people with more brain cells then apps on their phones and whom dont need constant validation from tiktok and instagram ! Indy Jones is like the Lara Croft games only GOOD,..LoL! Even the 4th Indy is better than ANY Lara Croft flick!
*Definitely* Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3 Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1 The Marvels Aquaman: The Lost Kingdom Fast X *Maybe* Ant Man And The Wasp: Quantumania Super Mario Bros Across The Spider-Verse Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts The Flash
Fast X and Aquaman 2 I don’t think will make a billon Aquaman I feel will perform similar to black Panther 2 and as for fast X i feel it’s running low on gas with its plot
@@georgeclarke3042 Alright I’m sorry but I’m tired of people just using that bullshit excuse whenever they talk about Captain Marvel making a billion dollars, people really liked it ok? So can all of you just deal with it?
Plus just cause it makes money doesn’t mean it’s good. Last Jedi did 1.3B cause it was the sequel to force awakens the biggest movie of the 2010s so far which don’t forget that film made 2B so make of that what you will.
@@SK-Pictures It won't as the Flash is a box office flop. Edit: The Flash currently is in about 300 more theaters than Across the Spider-verse in North America.

Mission Impossible- love what they’ve done with these movies lately. Probably will rent when it comes to streaming.
I AM SHOCKED HOW EXCITED I AM FOR THE SUPER MARIO BROTHERS MOVIE!!! I am not a Mario game fan at all!! I suck at Mari games…minus Mario Kart, Donkey Kong, Mario Party, Smash Bros.
But wow am I soooo beyond excited to see this animated movie. Which I have not been excited about an animated movie since hmmm maybe Finding Dory? Or Toy Story 3?
You’re going to love…LOVE Mario Kart ride at USH I went a couple weeks ago (wife works there) and its short but amazing
The flash is already getting excellent reviews by critics, so I am guessing that can go up on one of the list as making almost billion dollar movie especially since we would see Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton.
Might do similar numbers like multiverse of madness that had 8 week’s worth of reshoots which might have effected the quality of the film.
The DCEU’s reception might be a bump in the road.
To be honest, if Super Mario is actually really good (like Lego Movie level or higher) I think it has the biggest chance of joining the club.
Super Mario Bros will be massive
One of the most well known characters and franchises on a global scale, a bright & colorful family film.
Didn't the last minions film make bank? Yeah this thing will be huge
@@madnessarcade7447 Detective Pikachu was a weird one.
It wasn't an exclusive Pokemon film and the way it was marketed prob confused people and yes the timing didn't help
Year 2023 is definitely fantastic for all movie lovers i really wish flash atleast earn 800m $ . And Shazam 400+ and Aquaman 850+ bb 350
I cant wait for Dune 2
Diddo!
Sleeping on the Flash. That’s going to make a billion
I'll honestly be surprised if it doesn't
Please don’t wish on it. It’s only gonna make the Ezra controversy even worse. It’s already bad enough that WBD stupidly wants to keep a criminal on the run.
@@luisquintero7359 relax if u knew half of what these other actors do behind the scenes lol we don't care about ur personal life just make good movies
Billion Dollar Movies: (In order of release date)
Super Mario Brothers: That thing has a lot of momentum right now.
Guardians Vol. 3: Chris Pratt had one of the three Billion movies last year, might get two this year.
Fast X: Great track record and making over 700 Million during the pandemic will help it get pushed over the edge this time around.
Little Mermaid: Bit skeptical, but the other three major "Renaissance Remakes" have made over a Billion, so it's hard not to include it.
Indiana Jones: Gut feeling it will be this year's Top Gun. Heavy nostalgia factor here. Could be even bigger if it gets great reviews.
Mission Impossible: Don't bet against Tom Cruise. These movies have gotten better with each installment, though Fallout will be very tough to beat. Best movie I saw in a theater in 2018 by far.
Some of these will be very dependent on whether they can secure a release in China. Aquaman 1 made it to $1 billion largely thanks to China.
The epic plot twist..Shazam 2 hits a billion 😂
Fast X joins billion dollar club
Indiana Jones 5
Dune part II
Aquaman & the lost kingdom
I think you guys are sleeping on The Flash. Maybe not 1 billion, but it’ll be huge
@@EmperorDxD Keaton returning as Batman alone gives it that potential. The movie would still have to be good though.
@@mightheal it doesn’t have that same hype effect that No Way Home had and probably Keaton’s return might be years too late. Plus, it’s going up against Indiana Jones 5 and Across the Spider-Verse.
@@luisquintero7359 Really that only affects the rewatch numbers not the first time viewing numbers.
These are ones that I think will make over a billion
Super Mario Bros.
GOTG Vol. 3
M:I - Dead Reckoning Part One
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
This is what I think
1. Super Mario movie
2. Mission Impossible 7
3. Fast X
4. GOTG3
5. Aquaman 2
6. Transformers 7
7. Indiana Jones 5
8. The Flash
9. Ant man 3
10. The Marvels
1. Marvel will continue the tradition of having its movies in top 10, but there will be a downtrend that will again prevent it from top 3(same as 2022)
2. Super Mario movie will shock everyone and become the highest grossing film of the year.
3. All top 4 movies I mentioned will make a $1B
mario is no shock for me if it becomes nr 1
You think Aquaman will make more than Transformers? Interesting
@@thelonewolf2929 The first Aquaman made more than any Transformers movie.
So yeah.
Aqua man 2 will make a billion dollars
@@EmperorDxD it will nobody cares
@@EmperorDxD it will
@@EmperorDxD They really don’t lmao
@@EmperorDxD And? Doesn’t mean they won’t see Aquaman 2 lol. No one actually cares that much
@@rl8259 plus, with the recent bad word mouth of DC films and Amber Heard’s guilty verdict, i think that chances of getting a billion are very low. Plus the first one wasn’t even good. It was mediocre at best.
Aquaman 2
Indiana Jones 5
Guardians 3
Shazam 2
Flash
Mario
Not Shazam 2, it's released in between Creed 3, Scream, John Wick and Dungeons and Dragons
The only movies I see making a billion this year are
The Little Mermaid
Transformers
Fast and Furious 10
Aquaman 2
Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning
Mario!!!!!!
Antman 3
Little Mermaid...yeah right
Movie of the year is between 4
Mission impossible
Guardians of galaxy
John wick
And
Cousin bear personally
In terms of box office
Fast x
Mission impossible
Guardians
Mario I don’t know about
Ant man
Watch the flash hit a billion 😂
Fast X for sure. They are definitely bringing Brian back with CGI.
I don't think neither movies but I think the super Mario movie what make the most money but not billion
Nah don’t bet on the iconic character that is Mario.
Don't sleep on Barbie.. the inevitable great reviews will give it longer legs than miss Barbie herself
That will die by word of mouth
What about The Flash Movie?
No chance lol
@@rl8259 sleeping on the flash. If Gunn is calling it the greatest comic book movie of all time that means something
@@Lespaulofdoom of course Gunn is going to say that. His studios needs to make money. None of his movies crossed a billion.
@@Lespaulofdoom Doesn’t make it a Billion dollar movie lmao
I don’t know if it technically counts as a Nintendo film because they don’t own all of the Pokémon Company but there was Detective Pikachu in 2019
I liked Detective Pikachu aesthetically and creatively speaking but would have liked a better script.
More like Margot Barbie now! 😂
Wow
I‘m kinda shocked Rob forgot his most anticipated CBM in The Flash.
I‘m torn because of Ezra but I wanna see Keaton so bad and hopefully an epic scene with Batfleck.
If it gets a China release and has great action, I‘d could get to a billion.
I pay attention to movie news. And I had no idea there was another Hunger Games movie coming out.
So why are you watching a movie news show?
@@Living_Matrix1 typo. I pay attention to movie news.
Whatever happened to the two “hosts” we got introduced and everything, did anyone ever mention what happened?
You mean the two women? John let them go. The cover story was they were too busy to commit to the schedule of the show. The truth was they just weren't needed. John still did the hosting. All they did was read the letters. No point in paying someone a salary just to do that. John made a mistake but will never admit it
@@PlumbPitiful gotchya, was curious because I remember there being so much fanfare surrounding the new hosts I was curious when it all switched back. Thanks.
WILL MAKE IT
THE LITTLE MERMAID(YOU UNDER ESTIMATE THIS MOVIE AT YOUR OWN PERIL! I WILL DIE OF SHOCK IF THIS DOESN'T HIT A BILLION! Sorry John I'm going bullish high on this one and This not Mario will be the 1.5+B Highest Grossing Film of the Year)
Guardians 3
Aquaman 2(The First one was the first DCEU to hit 1B So I'm not underestimating it)
The Marvels(Just Barely)
.
Close
Fast X
MI: DR P1(Not one of these has hit a Billion even if they've gotten better and better)
Super Mario Bros
Across the Spider-Verse
Indiana Jones
Dune 2
.
Outside Chance
Hear Me Out: Barbie(Not only do I see Barbie making more then Oppenheimer OW but I see it clearing it WorldWide too)
.
Out of your Damn Mind How Could you put this as even a possibility:
Oppenheimer
Hunger Games
Dead reckoning will make a billion especially coming off of top gun plus mission impossible is a franchise that just keeps getting bigger and bigger each movie
@@criticinsider7989 God I hope you're right. I need one of these to make A Billion.
one reason it will not hit a billion dollar Disney+
Fast and Furious 10, Aquaman 2, The Flash (if it is true as James Gunn said it's one of the greatest superhero movie he has ever been), Mission Impossible 7, Indiana Jones (if it gets reviewed well), Next Transformers etc. movies has chance to touch or cross $1 billion us dollars in the box office
Mario ,guardians and fast x have the best chance and I think dune 2 it's the new Godzilla king of the monsters where people are overating how well that movie it's going to do I think general audiences hated that movie
The Wizard!! Not sure if a Nintendo movie but they def had to say yes a lot.
I seriously think Mario actually has a small chance at being the first animated movie to make 2 billion. I certainly don’t think it will, but if any animated movie could potentially do it, it’s this one.
It’s hard enough for *any* animated film to reach $2bil, let alone one based on a video game. Not only do VG adaptations have a spotty track record, but their appeal is more siloed to specific generations. It appeals to boys like me who grew up playing Mario games, but there’s nothing about it that interests my parents. It doesn’t help that the pandemic started conditioning parents to just wait until animated family movies hit the streaming services. Their box office performance on average has plummeted dramatically.
The 1st few Pokemon movies at least had the Nintendo logo at the start.
Wait, there's a new Hunger Games movie coming out? Not my thing, but I never knew they were making another one.
It's a prequel, so no Jennifer Lawrence
Barbie?
Scream 6 baby! I find it sad that films with no plot like F9 have more audiences than some great horror films.
In the "might join the billion dollar club" maybe The Flash ?
One potential impediment to The Little Mermaid is that the story is ocean themed. Comparisons between it and Avatar 2 will happen.
So is Aquaman? what does that really matter though?
Like with Aquaman, Little Mermaid will probably treat underwater like most movies do where the actors are on wires and can magically move through it almost as easily as air, so I doubt there will be much comparison. It doesn't really matter that much anyway. Whether it's urban, desert, forest, or water, they're all just biomes to tell a potential story in.
Why’d they totally forget mentioning the Flash?
I think it will do well. All depends on the marketing
I thought the same bro!! No way the flash don’t make a bill! How is this being overlooked?! Lol
@@j.a420 The Flash not only will NOT make a billion, but has flopped and will lose money.
@@j.a420 lmao
With the mario movie it's gonna make bank overseas because of how big nintendo is worldwide
I have thought of this.
Y’all are forgetting about Detective Pikachu and a dozen mainline Pokémon films.
Flash?
Since its a DC Movie it should make under 500m
I'm hyped for that Mario movie! N we way to invested in this fast franchise to bck out now!! 😆
Across the universe is a Beatles song
Joey Bishop running around
the flash ??
Billion dollars
Flash
Gotg
Super mario
Mission impossible
Marvel
Creed 3
John wick
I'll be there to watch Creed and John Wick but they won't come close to a million dollars they aren't family movies
I think the Mario Bros movie will be the highest grossing animated film in a long time.
I can believe it. It has a lot going for it.
barbie
Fast and Furious is about to get the Transformers treatment; no one will show up lol
Across the universe😑 lOl
How many more films can join the Billion Dollar Club before it's not a thing anymore? Fifty? A hundred? I'm so old I can still remember when $100 million was unheard of. Now $100 million is almost considered failure
Little Mermaid won't flop but it sure will not get a billion. This is the movie who earn the most dislike for any Hollywood film (2.84 million dislike). To put it in perspective, the previous movie that has the most dislike in RUclips is Cuties (2.4 million dislike) & 2016 Ghostbusters trailer (1.6 million dislikes). Little mermaid dislike surpassed those movie dislike.
Your analysis is highly flawed.
Those dislikes are from a movie no one has seen,..AND they are really just hateful people review bombing it,.LoL
@@terryshrk Yes, but the trailer is supposed introduce the film to the viewer. The like and dislike ratio show a percentage on how much viewer think of the show. Cuties & Ghostbuster 2016 got that dislike before people watch it [just trailer] and people still hate the movie once they watch it.
@@syahmioziar5290 But who is disliking it? Would the review bombing haters have gone to see the movie even if it had a white girl playing Ariel? Doubt it so I think the dislike ratio won't have much affect here.
@@briano7986 i would agree if the dislike is under 1 mil or around 1 mil. Also, i know Little Mermaid won't do well in Asian countries.
@@briano7986 Yes, they would have. Not all of them but atleast 1/3 of them will go.
I agree with all their movies. Marvel needs some billion dollar pics. I really think ant man 3 because of Kang has a big chance to get to a billion. I think GOG3 will def make it to a billion. I really want the marvels to get to a billion. If it’s a good film. It will that goes for all 3 of the marvel films. The only one I’m on the fence about is MI and Indiana jones. Those two I just don’t know about. I don’t feel like they have the universal draw. Top gun had nostalgia and the Air Force factor working in its favor. I just don’t see MI getting to a billion. I think Indiana jones will do around 800 mil.
LoL,..why does the MCU "need" to have more billion dollar grossers?
Dont, get me wrong, I LOVE and adore the MCU and its the only reason I even have Disney+ but as long as they make money they'll continue the MCU and thats fine.
They've been producing 007 movies since the early 1960's and that franchise has remained profitable enough to continue all this time ( from 1964 right up to now LoL)
BTW dude,...Top Gun is NOT an Air Force movie,... its a US Navy movie as clearly seen by all the US NAVY aircraft and that HUGE NAVY aircraft carrier in the damn movie and the fact that every main character refers to themselves as "Naval Aviators"!
Top Gun did not earn over ONE BILLION just based on nostalgia. It earned all that money because it was an old fashioned simple story that was appealing to people with more brain cells then apps on their phones and whom dont need constant validation from tiktok and instagram !
Indy Jones is like the Lara Croft games only GOOD,..LoL! Even the 4th Indy is better than ANY Lara Croft flick!
I love how Campea keeps shitting on gingers every time the Little Mermaid comes up.
What are your thoughts about the TV SERIES national treasure?
The Marvels NOPE
Cry
Didn’t Captain Marvel make over a billion?
Yea due to it being the last movie before endgame and being teased in infinity war which increased box office.
How could you forgot about flash
the flash has transformers and indiana jones goin againts it so i doubt it will do a billion
Not a hard competition
What about Barbie
Little mermaid made 1 bil 😂
😂😂😂never
The flash Movie will make a billion. Even with ezra miller its s crazy popular Charakter with the tv show and stuff
Speaking of which the TV series will be ending 2 weeks after the movie comes out
No chance
super mario is the only chance to ever have a billion dollar video game movie
What if there was a Super Smash Bros movie?
*Definitely*
Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3
Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1
The Marvels
Aquaman: The Lost Kingdom
Fast X
*Maybe*
Ant Man And The Wasp: Quantumania
Super Mario Bros
Across The Spider-Verse
Indiana Jones And The Dial Of Destiny
Transformers: Rise Of The Beasts
The Flash
The marvels I don’t think will make 1b remember the first only did that number cause it was inbetween infinity war and endgame which helped it alot
Fast X and Aquaman 2 I don’t think will make a billon Aquaman I feel will perform similar to black Panther 2 and as for fast X i feel it’s running low on gas with its plot
@@georgeclarke3042
Alright I’m sorry but I’m tired of people just using that bullshit excuse whenever they talk about Captain Marvel making a billion dollars, people really liked it ok? So can all of you just deal with it?
So you honestly think it would make 1B without being tied with infinity war and endgame?
Plus just cause it makes money doesn’t mean it’s good.
Last Jedi did 1.3B cause it was the sequel to force awakens the biggest movie of the 2010s so far which don’t forget that film made 2B so make of that what you will.
i predict only 2 movies this year will make 1billion. 800-900 3-5 but its going to be hard see these movies this year make 1billion
The Flash is a ways out - and I think it has a chance
How about now?
June 21/2023.
@@alanguages Seen the movie twice. Love it. It could possible pull an ‘Aquaman’ at the box office but I’m not sure.
@@SK-Pictures It won't as the Flash is a box office flop.
Edit: The Flash currently is in about 300 more theaters than Across the Spider-verse in North America. Last Monday Flash made around $59k more, than Across the Spider-verse. While Across the Spider-verse has been out for over two weeks already.
The Flash is big box office flop.
@@alanguages It made as much as Aquaman opening weekend
@@SK-Pictures This is the Summer and not like Aquaman December release with no competition for weeks. Look at my edit above. The Flash was a big box office flop. I knew it wasn't going to reach a billion, but I honestly did not want it flop either.
