movie The Little Mermaid (2023) | Makes a BIG streaming splash on Disney+ | 16M views! 🫧🐚

[Aethereal]

For those unaware the movie is heading for 600M-650M world wide. And it is going to gross over 300M domestically alone. At this point there is no doubt that the movie is going pass the 500M mark.

 

And in fact the signs for a close-350M domestic gross are even stronger than last week. 

 

Aladdin - $190,237,136 (Total: $356M)

The Little Mermaid - $191,560,625

 

It was slightly above Aladdin in the first Monday and it is still slightly above it in the second Monday.  At this rate, it will fall below Aladdin at some point but the gap is not going to be equal or more than 15% between them. (310M-350M)

I'm really surprised at how weak the numbers are...

 

500M a few weeks ago seemed unimaginably low and now we're all sat here hoping it can make it past that

 

I was rooting so hard for this movie.

People are over Disney remakes. They peaked with Beauty & The Beast. Aladdin was their dark horse era. Plus it did help that it was a 1:1 remake.

I just watched it the second time, and I love it even more.

This movie was fantastic and Halle was perfectly cast. 

 

What privilege it must be to complain about the race of a fictional character when black folks have real problems in this racist society.

Predicted $25 million domestic weekend coming up (-40%), still a better hold than Aladdin.

 

Definitely heading over $325 million domestically

If this movie ends with $600M (overall) then it will be a success.

Lower than Aladdin but I'm assuming TLM is following trends from last year rather than 2019. Still a healthy +33% from Monday and now just -47% down from last Tuesday. Wednesday drops should be soft and Thursday won't see much effect from Transformers. 

 

I assume it also passed $350M global. $200M domestic tomorrow

So it fell below Aladdin for the first time in this Tuesday as expected.

198,035,063 -  Aladdin

 

197,630,625 - TLM

 

I was honestly expecting it to fall below Aladdin before the Saturday. Still the gap in this Tuesday was a little bit alarming, I was expecting something like 800K-1200K not 1700K.

Latinos and Filipinos this one is for you!

The Little Mermaid as a Telenovela:

 

[BNF91]

Transformers' opening day can't unseat TLM from #1 in Italy on its 3rd Wednesday.. $10M there tomorrow, showing some nice legs. 

[BNF91]

Early domestic Wednesday. $200M surpassed, but hold is not as strong as I hoped. $4.25M estimate. Really has fallen behind Aladdin the past two days. Still chugging along but would have liked to see it keep pace with Aladdin this week. Don't think it will hit that $25M forecast this weekend.

UK is stanning hard. 

 

$7,910,408 - Dumbo opening weekend

$6,192,476 - TLM opening weekend

 

UK total gross by the second Sunday. 

$15,788,385 - Dumbo

$20,122,122 - TLM

$25,000,000 - Aladdin.

 

TLM opened with 1.5M less than Dumbo and by the second Sunday it is nearly 5M above it. 

 

Dumbo in UK did $35M and it was the movie's best international market. TLM seems to be heading towards 45M, maybe slightly below that mark.

while some international countries will hold ok. Going to finally see it in France this Sunday

I saw it yesterday in Lisbon in a packed theater and I loved it. So magical. Everything was spot on. I cried everytime Halle sang and by the end I was just bawling

 

Under The Sea was the best sequence, so colorful and fun, everyone was moving. Kiss the Girl was so cute. The market scene was fantastic. All in all an amazing movie

And yes I'm the only person to notice the Jodi Benson cameo in the new little mermaid

Aww that looks so fun

I still don't get why Ariel is getting her life singing Under the Sea? The whole point is she hates it and Sebastian is unsuccesfuly trying to change her mind. How did they misunderstand the assignment that badly?

she doesn't hate it during the animated movie tho... she just gets her attention back up to Flounder and his discovery
