Indiana Jones DOD probably similar to KOTCS (800m ww) at most. be surprised if it does more
FastX wont be as big as expected. little more than F9 box office like 800m
Aquaman2 bit less than 1st one like 800m
MI7 will be the biggest MI yet (due to last one and TG2) breaking 1b
Dune2 will do about same as D1 (400m even though that was with streaming)
The Flash will be huge (due to Keaton returning, time travel/multiverse, anticipation of previous DC film cameos etc) 1b
Shazam2 will do similar to 1st (and Black Adam) 400m
Guardians3 easy 1b
The Marvels 600-700m
AntMan3 bit more than 2nd - 750m
Kraven similar to Venom2 about 500m
Cocaine Bear lol - pretty big for what it is like about 200m
SawX - pretty big like the new Halloweens as its scary movie for the halloween month. 100-150m
D&D, GB4, Meg2, Expendables4 will all bomb - 300m/150m/200m/100m
These lists just show a downhill trend since that 1989 list
