In the U.S. and Canada, Black Panther raked in $192 million at the box office, making it the fifth-biggest opening in North America to-date.
Globally, it was the fifteenth biggest opening since 2002 and earned $361 million between the day of its release and Sunday.
Below are the rankings of the biggest openings in cinema globally since 2002, and in North America, as taken from Wikipedia (which cites Box Office Mojo).
(Random lessons learnt from this: holy crap Disney is going to be making a lot of money from the franchises it’s acquired. And holy crap Harry Potter was a huge deal for Warner Brothers.)
I was expecting this, I am very sceptical tho, the last few superhero movies has been rather dissapointing for me. I just dont see the point of wasting my money on it - So I shall wait for dvd I also cannot support watching the movie in 3D only - WHY do they only release 3D and the 2D people have to wait at least 2 weeks before being able to watch it.
I cant watch 3D - if you want someone throwing up on you make me watch 3D
We might have 2D options but you cant book them online 90% of the time - and I refuse to stand in those queues. i dunnot I think the superhero movies are now the zombie tv shows - totally over it.
Black Panther was excellent, but most of the movies from the MCU are.
For once, there seem to be a few decent 2D options in opening week. I looked up 2D options in Cape Town last night:
Canal Walk has a Scene VIP 2D option. There may be other Nu Metro options, but their site doesn’t make it easy to see and we had a really good experience there, so I can recommend it.
For Ster-Kinekor there is Blue Route, N1 City, and Tygervalley.
We’ve booked online for 2D movies fo both chains — no issues.
it must be a cape town thing then cause i was able to book online and besides the movie theaters have self-service desks now so no ques…the only ques will be for slushies and popcorn
Which I NEVER buy anymore - yes I am that person who brings my own snacks into a movie.
The last one we went to see was Thor: Ragnarok - and I was put off simply because they tried to hard to get the comedy of gaurdians - which caused me to hate thor
I dunno hey, I prefer the slightly more serious feel that the other thor movies had. I will be honest Ragnarok just felt like a filler - almost as bad as the TV show has become. I still love the Marvels world more than DC - you cant pay me to go watch a DC movie - especially since they broke it with using someone else besides the TV Flash.
We try to go watch only at numetro of late - Tygervalley ster kinekor is filthy, you cant use the bathrooms and their staff just put me off buying food there.
But yea like I said, maybe Avengers. That I might go watch, the last movie I LOVED was Dr Strange. Maybe its the onrigin story firsts that make the first one so much better.
I actually really enjoyed Wonder Woman and the new Justice League movie — Batfleck is growing on me and Jason Mamoa was always going to be awesome. He’s the only way they were going to make Aquaman not suck.
That said, I completely understand what you mean regarding the separate TV and movie DC universes and the TV Flash not being used for the movie! I also completely understand folks who complain about how easy the big bad was for the Justice League in the end. (mild spoiler)
Wonder woman yes - that was also very good and rewatchable - I have learnt I cant rewatch most of the movies - wonder woman yes, that is a rewatchable movie even if they have bobblehead playing the lead main dude
To be honest, Justice League disappointed me way to much, the only saving grace was Jason Momoa as Aquaman - to get my Jason fix tho I rather watch Frontier.
So I shall be patient - I dont need to see it first
