Went to see this again today, this time on IMAX.

 

Somehow enjoyed it on my second watch nearly as much as the first time.  Might have to go again next weekend.

Can you imagine going to the movies and hearing 10s of theater kids screaming off-key in your ears ?

700M gross here we come.  This is coming for 1 billion even if it only has 300M outside the US

It will probably struggle to get to even $300M internationally. Domestically, I still don't think $500M+ is guaranteed. We have to see what next weekend's drop looks like.

I'm the one you want

It's me!

It's MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Wicked soundtrack is rising on US Spotify despite holiday songs smashing the chart now

 

Defying Gravity: 21 (+9)

What Is This Feeling: 40 (+8)

Popular: 43 (+8)

Dancing Through Life: 92 (+19)

No One Mourns The Wicked: 95 (+18)

 

Seems like another great week for Wicked in both box office and soundtrack. The movie is making lots of money from box office and music

Let me clown 🤡 

 

But musicals are hard to track because it all depends on week over week holds and very poor comps.  (Every musical that is a hit feels like an "unexpected" hit).

 

I think deadline said that it is tracking with Wonka and The Greatest Showman which would give it an international gross of 300M-450M.  
 

In the US it seems that a gross of at least 450M is likely based on how well its holds have been so far.  Obviously 700 is an exaggeration, but I expect an extra push from Christmas in its 6th weekend which will be hard to predict.

They need to make What Is This Smashing a single

I'm still thinking $700M WW range. These next few weekends will be dicey because if the competition with Moana and Gladiator weren't enough, Mufasa and Sonic 3 are coming too

It is.

6 'Wicked' songs debuted on H100. This is amazing.

 

Edit: it's actually 7 'Wicked' songs, NOMTW at #86

 

It's also the soundtrack with most H100 entries this decade
