There is literally no competition for the number 1 spot this year isn't it? I really cant think of a movie releasing this year that can give another billion moment 

 

oh wow

Nope, Barbie has this set in stone. There doesn’t seem to be any threat in the next year either.

The Marvels will probably barely breakeven, which is a shame cause it looks much better than the first Captain Marvel  can’t see any Marvel cross a billion other than Fantastic 4 and to a stretch Deadpool 3 (and ofc the 2 Avengers movies).

[PopMusicJunkie]

A project that was in developmental hell for years only to exceed expectations.  

 

Well deserved.

Well, she's in the movie so maybe she was the one who taught them 

[MonsterJohn]

The movie didn't convince me but it's a win for the people

i was thinking not 1b movies this year, both Super Mario and Barbie were big surprises. I mean i was expecting for them to be big but like 500-600M for Barbie and 700-800 for Mario would have been already amazing. 

 

Oppenheimer doing 900M a big surprise too of course. 

 

Really the year of surprises instead of these infinite sagas at some point you knew how much money they would have done 2 years before coming. Box office became really boring at some point.

 

The eras tour is next

I think $1.4 is a given considering it's still pulling 15-20M every weekend and it also still has the IMAX showings.
