bwhahahahaha. Don't tell you're one of the people that think it's a complex movie for high brow people.

Opening to $175 -$180 million is not beating it by $25 million opening weekend. The most important thing to remember is Cap is a great film and that is what should matter.
That seems low. I heard projections as high as 220 million.

You're nuts. Civil War is going to beat BvS by at least 25 million.
Um, I dunno about that.

Despite defeating BvS in pre-ticket sales; Civil War is actually doing WORSE than BvS so far.

BvS made $80 million during it's Friday, whereas Civil War only netted $75 million on Friday.

Still, Marvel movies are usually not as front-loaded as DC movies and this movie will probably go on to earn more when it's all said and done.
We shall see. As I said I'd be surprised if it doesn't ultimately make $1 billion.

It'll do 1 billion easy. It's going to beat Iron Man 3 no doubt.

No, I'm not a Nolan fanboy. It's just a good damn film.

I don't understand where you're coming from. BvS featured 2 of the most popular comic characters of all time and failed to make $1 billion. Just because comic movies have broken the $1 billion mark before doesn't mean Civil War is a lock to do so.

Don't get me wrong I think it will; but it's not a surefire guarantee. Especially because it's starting off a lot worse than many people predicted. Hell, it's entirely possible it might not even beat BvS's opening weekend.

It's on pace to make $175-$185 million OW, when most major sites had it doing over $200 million.

Rogue one is now the favorite to win the year especially if Vader has a big role in it.

BvS was a world wide release. That's the difference

Talking about OW.

Honestly, the only important thing is that it's a great movie. Civil War may or may not defeat BvS in sales...but it's already beaten it for quality. Civil War is what BvS should have been; more or less.

I see you're point now. After looking on boxofficemojo I noticed that Civil War didn't even beat the Dark Knight Rises opening Friday, which is surprising.

One thing is for sure Marvel movies have great legs so this film will do a billion for sure. It's almost halfway there before the weekend is over.

^ Like I said before, they didn't market Spider-Man's presence enough. But Word of Mouth (people going crazy for Spider-Man, and how great the movie is) should give this legs IMO.

I will be very disappointed and shocked if this doesn't beat that trash IM3. This was the real IM3 (on top of Cap3) for me. I think if it doesn't beat that then that would mean IM3 came out at the peak of the hype for comic book/MCU movies or something.

As for the Cap trilogy being the best superhero trilogy... Yeah sure.. But let's not kid ourselves, this film was as much a Marvel event film as a Cap film.

good yes, one of the best ever made like you claimed lol. That's a insult to movies in that categorie.

Your opinion is not fact.

Again, so they shouldn't keep tabs and records on their experiments? Do you know how things work?

Again Keeping tabs wouldn't require lifting some video feed 😆

Again they could have simply written any notes down 😆

Again why was the camera shot out 😆

Yah, Marvel movies tend to have good legs. That's the reason I think it could get to $1 billion. It's a great movie and has great reviews so wom should only help it.

I was expecting a little over 200 m OW. Especially after the trailer where they showed Spider-Man.

SM was pretty well known after the last trailer. The YouTube views were more than any other super hero movie and of course the TV spots.

Pretty dumb complaint TBH. reaching much.

Lets also complain at to the type of shoes Cap was wearing. I dont think they matched his outfit.

Oh I know , how about who was filming that footage during the destruction montage? (easy to answer, but it might perplex you for some reason)
