It's in the top 5 easy, but Dr. Strange's box office plummeted after the first week.

That screenshot reminds me of the LOTR release. I happened to be in New Zealand in December 2001 when the Fellowship of the Ring and saw a weekend premiere showing in Auckland. The entire, and I mean the ENTIRE, downtown theater was completely devoted to showing LOTR. The showings were every 15 minutes or so and every one of them packed to the gills.
Lots of fun and frankly that type of experience is what I miss about going to the theater. Only a couple of movies each year that qualify for me --- this year, it's Top Gun and, grudgingly, Jurassic Park.

Ready for maverick . I have to take the wife to see
Downtown abby for her to go see maverick.
Maverick at 95% on RT. Critics loving it!
The first half was pretty mediocre but it picks up in the back half. If you are a fan of the show, you will enjoy all the character resolutions we get in the final half-hour.
It is like a slightly above average extended version of the TV show. Not as clever or fun as the first movie but still worth a watch if you enjoyed the TV series.

Looking like about $151 mil for Top Gun during the 4-day weekend. That's a great number, the best opening of Tom Cruise's career. The film is proving to be a huge hit with critics and audiences (it scored a rare A+ cinemascore, which is really impressive).
Hard to see this flick making less than about $400 mil in total boxoffice. It will face pretty much zero competition in terms of new releases until June 10th when Jurassic World 3 opens.
So, Dr. Strange (currently at $375 mil through this weekend) and Top Gun appear to be in smooth sailing to make our top 5. It would be massively unprecedented for a film to earn $300 mil and not make our top 5 and both these flicks are going to end up over $400 mil.
As I said a couple weeks ago... I lost.

I finally got around to seeing Dr Strange today and I was really disappointed. It had way too much hocus-pocus and special effects. I can't get into time travel or parallel universe story lines. For me it probably was my least favorite Marvel movie. But I did see a trailer of the next Thor movie and it looks like it may be a fun summer flick.

The big question in this thread is...
How did WaveDukeFan enjoy Downton Abby?

Well, at least the collective mind was correct on Bob's Burgers. $12.4 million.
Kicking myself for not taking Thor. Should have replaced it over Jurassic Park. I think Lightyear is a lock. And Minions likely as well (though 5/6 will probably be JP and Minions in some
order)

Here’s my submission for a movie that won’t be on the board but should be: RRR
I’m still floored a day after watching it. The action is insanity. A must must see
