haha holy shit

btw how bad was the flop? We had like 5 posts/day about it leading up to release and now nothing. I don't want to actually look up numbers myself so someone find me some fun drama about the actual sales numbers and please remember to masticate it for me because I am a lazy fricking slob.

Thanks!! :marseythanks:

I just looked up a Guardian article about it

New superhero movie The Marvels has recorded the lowest ever north American opening weekend box office for any Marvel Cinematic Universe film.

Data site the Numbers reports that The Marvels, which stars Brie Larson as Captain Marvel alongside Teyonah Parris as Monica Rambeau and Iman Vellani as Ms Marvel, took an estimated $47m (£38.4m) over its first three days in US and Canadian cinemas, meaning that it has displaced The Incredible Hulk as the MCU's worst recorded opening; the latter managed $55.4m on its release in June 2008.

The Marvels' financial difficulties are compounded by its production budget, which is reported to have been $274.8m, the fourth-highest of any MCU film. However, the film did take an estimated $63m at the international box office, meaning that its worldwide opening-weekend gross came in at $110.3m.

haha holy shit $110m opening weekend (global) on a movie with a $275m budget.
