I'm not saying Suicide Squad will break huge box office records, but it won't be surprising to me if this breaks out like GOTG. Many elements are there to be a hit. After opening weekend, it all depends on WOM and reviews. If the reviews are good, this has a good chance at hitting 700 M plus.
You can't predict surprise mega hits like Deadpool or GOTG.
I'm not saying SS won't be. But if it does it's just not one of those things that is obvious it's gonna happen.

BTW, check out the OVER 600 M club I opened on BO forums.Suicide Squad OVER 600 M WW Club!
Unanimously, I got 26 people who are in my club that think Suicide Squad will easily do 600 and only 2 people that are out.

Who said SS would be a surprise hit? It has blockbuster written all over it, IMO. If I'm wrong, I'll gladly concede. 😄

Yes, and that's why you shouldn't act like Suicide Squad will beat Batman v Superman or Deadpool just because there is a lot of buzz around that movie.
I said I wouldn't be surprised if it beat BVS IF THE QUALITY of the movie is good. That would boosts it's legs. I never said the buzz would be the only factor.

BvS had blockbuster written all over it. Just don't see how it's the same with SS. I'm sure it'll do well IF it's a good movie, but can say that about a lot of films.
And tbh DC are at a point where they NEED it to do well. Which really is unfair pressure on SS.

Like I said before, Will Smith movies (Blockbusters) alone gross more than 600 M WW. His last blockbuster he did was MIB 3 (2012) and that grossed 624 (Without 3-D or IMAX). Suicide Squad has a lot more buzz and anticipation than that.

It's not really the day and age where you can bank on a star to guarantee a blockbuster anymore.Quality is what's needed.
That is true, but WS movies tend to do very well OS. I'm not talking about his smaller stuff like Focus or Concussion. OS tend to like him in action and if the movie gets good reviews, the sky is the limit.
