WB did 6.5 billon last year to Disney's 7 billion. In 2017 they were ahead domestically most of the year until JL and BR2409 both flopped.Disney is having the best year every for any studio this year but that is the exception not the rule.
Not to mention AT&T has the money to go head to head with Disney.
After capturing more than a quarter of the domestic box office last year, Disney is poised for an even more dominant performance in 2019.

In recent years, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE😄IS) has been the undisputed king of the U.S. box office. Disney has beaten No. 2 studio Warner Brothers -- now part of AT&T -- for three consecutive years, twice topping it by more than $1 billion. Last year, Disney brought in domestic box-office receipts of $3.1 billion, including $136 million from holdovers released in 2017, giving it 26% market share. Warner Brothers took second place with less than $2 billion.
Beating them 3 years in a row and by a billion is huge. This year is even worse. Poor warner.
