OH NO NO NO

That includes previews for defective Pikachu that started mid day instead of evening. Pure Friday DP is below EG.

TEAM rocket spin off WHEN??

whatever helps you cope marvelbot

NOOOOOOOO
Yea Forums said it would flop !! Everyone hates black people!!!!

yes, I want to see Meowth insulting Jesse and James on the big screen.

Wasn't this supposed to get 80 million domestically on its opening weekend?
It looks like it will be closer to 40-50 million from what does numbers are showing.

>Le ebin cope meme
Twittertard pls

It was supposed to make 50 to 55 domestically.

also, that's just from Friday, not including Saturday and Sunday yet.

Avatar #1 still has a lifeline from Endgame #1 not only from Detective Pikachu (Detective Kinochu), but also from Aladdin (Kinoddin) and Godzilla (Kinozilla). WB's mouse has blown the fuck out of Disney's mouse. The slow down is real.

I completely agree with you, I'd love a Pokemon Cinematic Universe (I'd love a Sonic Cinematic Universe too, no matter how unlikely that might be).

I will watch this out of hatred for superhero movies and avatar. The only way I can hurt them

So black lead actors are box office poison, scott?

It's over Marvel bros, we are finished better pack up the others phases and just focus on comics

I-is that a nigger?

For the weekend

just end the cinematic universe and start doing miniseries for the Disney+ capeshit containment

let the fight begin.

>the vials of rage gas had Rs on them

>I was thinking that Team Rocket would be the big reveal
>never happened

Honesty triggered me.

yes for the weekend, we're talking about opening weekend you pleb.

Disney will buy Pokemon next

>Detective Pikachu is going to be the Iron Man of the Pokeverse. Bugs Bunny might have just found his greatest weapon against Mickey Mouse.

I completely agree with you. Thanks, Based Bugs Bunny!

Based Bugs Bunny will FUCK Mickey up!

>the success of THE FIRST EVER LIVE-ACTION POKÉMON MOVIE has anything to do w/ the leads

please kill yourself

Nintendo is not gonna sell it to Disney.

oh fuck it might only make 2.5 billion worldwide what a disaster

>marvel
>comics

Now they're gonna have to see if they do for post-Gen 1 Pokémon what Marvel did for its second stringers. Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and especially Guardians were considered chumps compared to X-Men, Spider-Man, and Hulk.

So, it won't beat Avatar? My sides.

>Movies with WB
>Theme parks with Universal
>Already a toy and vidya company with their own merchandise deals
Not happening. The rat fears the plumber.

Avatar is locked to go down, if not next weekend, then in the week after it. It will need BvS dives to not hit Avatar at this point.

AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAJHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA!!!!

>falling for le epic LOTR style battle meme, no cosmic level stuff
>Ironfuckingman landed like 2 shitty weightless hits on thanos and his new suit did jack fucking shit, no Proton cannon, no cool tag team attacks, nothing

Endgame was underwhelming as fuck

Exactly and you better believe that Warner is NEVER going to let go of the film rights to Pokemon just like Sony is NEVER going to let go of the film rights to Spider-Man. Also, I want to see live-action versions of ALL of these Pokewaifus of mine. Also, rolling.

The absolute state of mcucks.

is this close enough?
youtube.com/watch?v=2THdhjPx2Us

I fucking told you that endgame wouldn't beat avatar and that Yea Forums was fucking retarded and didn't know how box office worked
>but infinity war multiplier
I fucking said it was only as high as it was because China released later than America.

Which according to the ancient brainlets laws, namely the more money a movie makes the better it is, mean that Detective Pikachu is now a strong candidate to become the pinacle of cinematography. The best of the best. The greatest cinematography piece in movie history.

Did people seriously think Endgame was going to be on top of the charts for over 3 weeks or something?
Not that many movies even stick around longer than 1 week on the top.

China has a made a fuckton for EG (605 million) already compared to IW's entire run (359 million).
That's why the AHHHHH CHINA SAVE ME! meme is so prevalent on Yea Forums right now, because the only reason EG is probably going to beat Avatar because Chinese are going out in droves to watch it.

yeah it wasnt great

regardless trying to move goalposts to make it look unsuccessful 3 weeks in after its made billions just looks beta as fuck. move on.

It's almost stopping in China now

Attached: china.jpg (739x337, 59K)

So, did China take to Pokemon well? Or is it going to be released later?

Mendelson was saying Endgame could top Wandering Earth's 700 million to become the 2nd highest grossing in China of all time but it's clearly not happening

*690 million

>that kino poster
Fucking based

Not bad I guess.
Pokemon is probably not going to have a lot of staying power, it just doesn't have the Disney advertisement.

>mousecucks backpedaling on their incessant "IT'S GOING TO DESTROY AVATAR" comments by saying "haha it still made lots stay mad" for the 50th time

this
it's already the #2 movie of all time
but at that point it doesn't matter if it makes 2.6b if it doesn't beat Avatar

it's on track to have a $45-50 million opening weekend in china. which is fucking terrible for a film of that size in a market this big. it also was dead on arrival in japan.

WE

lol cope

Why would they care about one Disney IP beating another :^)

Jesus

It will be a miracle if it even gets to $400 million. Why do you have to ruin everything/tv/?

because Cameron will get the rights to Avatar back (in 25 years)

I have some somber news for you Yea Forums
Alladin is gonna fall flat just like Dumbo
And Kinozilla is gonna be everything you wanted it to be

>being so cucked by the mouse that your obvious damage control is "haha >WE< win either way"

jesus christ, please drown in a fire

Reminder that Endgame could still come out on top by the end of the weekend.

Have you ever heard of the concept of “watching both movies”?

the GIF was a nice touch.

The lead actor for Pikachu is disgusting though, he looks like a greasy dildo found in a sewer. Can’t watch because of him.

>stupid "why did decective pikachu flop?" threads are spammed
>now the ineviatble "Yea Forums BTFO" threads are spammed
It almost seems like the same person is making these threads and trying to craft some kind of retarded narrative about this board. Because I've seen this shit happen before.

and you're a faggot

i mean if it beats avatar you're just going to fall back on the le inflation meme, what's the difference?

Yeah, I thought it was obvious. The henchgirl had that Team Rocket style; would have made perfect sense.

OP is a faggot is, OP is a faggot for a reason

no, you

>The henchgirl had that Team Rocket style; would have made perfect sense

dito

yes, I would have liked to have seen Meowth insulting James on the big screen as well.
but they kind of went along with the plot of the original game.
except for mewtwo turning people into Pokemon, that part was kind of dumb. the only person in the game that got turned into a pokemon was Tim's dad
Who was pikachu in the game as well, but wasn't turned back to human because the dad's body was dead. and pikachu essentially died to give up his body for the dad.

are films the syo equivalent of say, a baseball team for a fan? like, they feel proud to financially support a brand sold at walmart?

I'm not a big fan of muh diversity casting le based nignog as MC, but at least he seems somewhat charismatic and not a total monkeyman like John Boogabooga

Put bluntly - we now have the perfect set-up for Team Rocket in the PKU (Poke Kino Universe)
> Kanto is confirmed to exist and is where Mewtwo came from
> Mewtwo was the subject of secret experiments based on 'ancient Mew'
> 'R' incident was large enough and focused enough to become associated in media

Sequel can dive into them trying to find the origin of Mewtwo with Mewtwo as the main character and the Pikachu as the supporting character - kind of a role reversal of previously and/or telepathy can be used to allow Pikachu to talk again. They discover 'Team Rocket', etc...

Spin-off prequel featuring Mewtwo can have him being created in Kanto, developing a hatred for humans and eventually meeting up with the Pikachu that would later be captured alongside him before he becomes Harry's partner pokemon.

Detective Pikachu is going to make enough to secure it's sequel and spin-off. Then the real fun begins.

Looks like the pajeets are getting the whip in addition to unpaid overtime.

Imagine only having one pokemon and it's a fucking Doduo

>Especially how protective Nintendo is of their IP, they wouldn't let WB/Legendary make a movie if they didn't make sure it was going to make money.
Then explain why they let 4Kids and Kids WB fuck MewTwo Strikes Back into the dirt.

I unironically don't get how they ok'd a nig to be the MC.
>inb4 raycis

They just really wanted dubs.

It will still beat avatar but that's a bigger drop than expected

Imagine only have one kid and it's you.

Nope.

kek

Joke's on you, I've got a brother and my parents hate us both.

>meme

Not even a capecuck. I just want capeshit to end

So, Pokemon is going to see a big drop from Friday?

lol, you underestimate the parents bringing their kids to this. they wouldn't take their kids to the Thursday screening because it would be a school night.

They're including the Thursday preview with the Pikachu Friday. Avengers is already ahead.

how to train a dragon 5 which ididnt even know existed did pretty decent numbers. awful or mediocre kids movies willl do good only because parents want to go somewhere with their kids

I unironically won’t watch detective pikachu because the nigger lead

Dunno if true or not but it wouldn't be surprising these movies have the same target audience and any kid would rather see pikachu instead of shit like hulk

Apparently, they are bringing their kids to see the Avengers, since it is beating Pokemon. Or at least, that is what that article is saying.

So we just solely discuss revenue of movies rather than their merits, strengths, or criticism now?

>estimated 62 million
>it was supposed to be 70-80 million
JUST

Yeah it will.
Pikachu's friday includes thursday previews. Its pure friday is actually lower than Endgame. So EG will win for the 3rd time this weekend

>changing the bar
It beat pokemon and that’s all that matters
>t. mouse shill

> EG is relying on repeat viewings.
> DP has a larger range of appeal and is a more enjoyable and shorter film.

yes
you can discuss that all day, but in the end it's all subjective, but numbers are right there for everyone to see.

>DP has larger range of appeal than the fucking Avengers

Not in this universe.

How can this possibly be of any interest to you?

Get fucked pokefags.

Parents aren't taking their kids to a 3+ hour long movie user. They could barely keep their kids mouths shut for the 1.5 hour long pikachu movie I watched last night.

When things start to sell very well, people will try to emulate that success.
This idea of a movieverse really got popular due to Avengers, and we may see it get even more prevalent with Endgame getting close to Avatar numbers.

Take off 5 million for pikachu for Thursday and endgame still on top, will be for the weekend anyways

The money doesn’t lie and also rotten tomatoes also shows that critics and audiences both agree that Avengers: Endgame is a good movie. Let’s put that into perspective for Yea Forums.

SHIT

I don't know. I guess trying to predict how much a movie will make based on different factors and comparisons to similar movies is fun. I haven't even watched Pikachu nor will I ever watch it, but it's interesting to see how it performs financially.

>imagine being this pathetic

Pikachu was full when I went last night, endgame was empty when I went this morning.

Funny how Yea Forums only pulls this shit out when they get BTFO this badly

get fucked, mousecuck.

The Thursday showings should not count. That's fake news

Never underestimate the love of Pokemon
> t. I don’t even like it that much but you can obviously tell a lot of people really really do

Big fucking deal my theater was full for Shazam but that didn't stop it from bombing you stupid fuck

They did when I saw Endgame on the day it came out. There were kids EVERYWHERE in that theater wearing their Avengers costumes. If kids like something, they won't give a fuck if it's 3 hours long.

Based Chadnos, I hope he's happy in the Soul Realm!

I completely agree with you.

it's not going to even WITH inflation, even WITH a larger population

kek embarrassing

You say that, but Endgame might beat it on its third weekend. Pokemon gets touted around as being a super successful franchise, but if it can't beat Avengers on its weekend premier, it shows that the kid audience is not that reliable or, Marvel is just that much more popular with that demographic.

Right now it's on track to.

>Avengers Endgame thursday and friday opening was 150 million
>Detective Pikachu thursday and friday opening was only 20 million
>Endgame is 16 million, just friday

I wouldn't be celebrating this early to be quite honest with you

thing about Avatar was, it had a shit simple story so no one really gave a fuck about it when recommending the movie to their friends. The highlight was the 3D, which is something you had to see in person, and something you had to pay extra for a 3D ticket for. With Endgame, everyone rushed to see the movie within the first two weeks because they wanted to find out the story before they heard a spoiler, but after that there's no relevance, or necessity for a repeat viewing

Are you saying that there is a single person in the world who wants to see Endgame who has not seen it?

Or are you saying that Detective Pikachu being part of a franchise spanning the last 20+ years is unlikely to have fans who are primarily adults with kids of their own thus increasing ticket sales?

Either way, end yourself.

It’s the one trade-off they had to make for complete creative control of every other aspect of the film

They do that with every movie. Thursday previews used to only be midnights before, but after the shooting during TDKR's midnights they started doing them at like 7 pm, sometimes even at 4 pm. So yeah it's stupid, but whatever.

it makes no sense to me either.
it’s not their money, so why the fuck do they care? it’s bizarre and concerning.

go back

PIKAAAAAAAA
PIKAAAAAAAA
CHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD

Probably cause the majority of people have already seen Endgame and saw it fairly quick due to excitement.

The article is combining Thursday and Friday.
Avengers is set to beat Pokemon by the end of the weekend, so there are still people who are interested in watching Endgame.

retard

I know it doesn't mean anything but yesterday one chick that I stalk on instagram posted a pic of her and her boyfriend going to see Endgame, and Pikachu was already out
Just sayin, and I'm still seeing Endgame commercials on tv like every single time, and haven't seen a single Pokemon commercial at all

It's ok Jimmy, maybe if you didn't wait a decade to make a sequel to your worst movie Avatar would actually be culturally relevant.

>TV series are equal
bullshit, just compare the first season of Supergirl with the first season of Jessica Jones.

marvel has better vidya but the rest is fine.

also this

Honestly seeing that bug headed nigger and his weird jawed BLACKED concubine were the worst parts of the movie. Get daft punk to do the score instead of weakly ripping them off, cast good looking whites, and go further into the neotokyo aspect of the film with Pokémon living alongside humans, I dunno, maybe shoot it native 3D as well? Pure movie bliss to me.

Arkham Asylum shits all over the Spiderman games

the spiderman games on PS1 from the 90s were better than arkham.

>Avatar is locked to go down,
It's actually not. From this point on Infinity war only made another 176mil domestically and Endgame needs to make another 443mil to beat Avatar

Indeed. I watched it twice because I fucked up and accidentally went to a 2D view of Avatar first, and the 3D view was amazing.
