Thor Love and Thunder made 100 mil less than Ragnarok, but it also didn't open in China like Ragnarok did. Ragnarok made over 110 mil in China. Same with Doctor Strange MoM, that made 950 mil and didn't open in China. Although the reviews were meh for both they still made a shit load of cash.

Thinking Black Panther 2 won't do well is kinda just letting your personal Marvel bias get in the way. Fans of BP are gonna go because they will want to see how and what they do to honor Boseman. Also Shuri was a well received character in the first movie, so her becoming the new BP isn't gonna turn off that many people.

its going to "underperform" meaning it will be right with Love & Thunder and MoM. though i doubt its going to gross as high as L&T . also keep in mind L&T grossed much less than Ragnerok, but also cost more than Ragnerok to produce.
Ragnerok budget 180 million grossed 810 million
L& T budget 250 million, grossed 760 million

BP2 cost probably around 200 million. lets see how well this phase 4 version without Black Panther in it does.

Budget is on Marvel though. Just because a movie costs more to make doesn't mean that it will make more.

Thor Ragnarok
DOMESTIC (36.9%)
$315,058,289
INTERNATIONAL (63.1%)
$538,925,590
WORLDWIDE
$853,983,879

Out of that $112,226,154 was from China.

Thor Love and Thunder
DOMESTIC (45.1%)
$343,256,830
INTERNATIONAL (54.9%)
$417,422,576
WORLDWIDE
$760,679,406

The big difference is this one didn't open in China. If it had, it would have equaled or surpassed Ragnarok.

Pretty sure Marvel didn't know China was gonna fuck them, considering how much they have kowtowed to them in the past.


Also most of us thought that BP wasn't gonna do huge, but guess what it broke smashed to $1,347,597,973. Only 105 million of that was from China.


edit: If anything inflation and people being tighter with money will hurt the box office more than anything else here.

why do you think BP did huge?
was it because of the hype over Chad Boseman as Black Panther in Civil War
or

Those people are still going to go because they'll want to see what they do about Boseman. I'm more into the Namor stuff than BP personally. I know everyone hates on the change to an ancient Mayan type civilization, but it's better than being an almost carbon copy of Aquaman Atlantis. Besides the movie has built in pee breaks for whenever Ironheart shows up.

To enjoy a MUC movie you need to apply "the suspension of disbelief" in order to not critically tear it up in your mind,

Wakanda Forever is just a leap too far.

I saw the new BP trailer when I went to see Black Adam, and it looked very entertaining. I hate the first BP, but I'm willing to give this a try.

You say this as if it isn't a foregone conclusion. You own the Black Panther steelbook, despite supposedly "hating" it.

The MCU could release a movie called Poop and it's just two hours of a video of poop and he would still have the steelbook of it. I don't think quality really matters.

Probably, as long as the stinger after the credits suggested it was actually Kang's poop. Their 'big villain' building for phase 4 needs work.

That movie would fucking rule. Even more if they make the steelbook scratch and sniff. Wishful thinking, I know.
