Their tracking actually has it within range of opening at No. 1! A Star is Born’s high range is $35 million (OP’s title is incorrect), while Venom’s low range is $30 million.

fixed it. thanks

Venom is a superhero, high-budget movie. $25M is IMPRESSIVE for ASIB, while $40M is just okay for Venom

 

I'm not arguing with this. All I'm saying is that it looks like the Venom will take the weekend as of today. No need for condescending.

If someone can find some old Tom Hardy tweets and get the ball rolling on ending Venom that’d be great

Anyone working on the film tbh y’all can try the director, a co-star, head of marvel, who knows!

$25-$35 is an amazing opening weekend especially with its low budget. 

It's not low budget . Don't million reasons this movie please

As someone who is a pretty big boxoffice follower, this makes sense to me. We are all sitting here looking at it as, "omg gaga, the gp like her, but they dont LOVE her." No one is looking at this from a film standpoint. 

Bradley is a huge name on his own, and that trailer was 👌

Its definitely geared towards female audiences, but it's also gonna be an interest for award season followers as well. With oscar buzz surrounding it already, those people are definitely going to be seeing it. 

Venom looks like a trash super hero...villain film, so I can see most of the male audience going for it, but unlike other Marvel films, this doesn't seem to be pandering to the masses. So, it's great that the female audience have a film to see that weekend. 

I'm just glad it's coming out before Halloween, the film, because that's what's gonna dominate the rest of October.

Many of those had limited opening weeks (nyc and LA only) before expanding to wide release in following weeks, hence the lower numbers.

I just realized that they have a lot of potential factors and areas to advertise to a wider audience. Like, if I weren't a Gaga fan or even a general fan of films, I would be highly curious of Dave Chappelle acting in a serious, dramatic role.

i'm so proud of gaga

[Monsterish 5,520]

This prediction is amazing   I mean basically the movie is doing her budget in 1 week, wow... 

Anyway, what does it mean domestic box office? WW box office?

I feel like with ASIB it will be a hit or a miss in terms of box office, just my feeling

I was thinking the same

If ASIB performs above it's initial estimated value, does she get paid more? or was her salary for a medium budget film it?

Domestic box office means from US and Canada only, whereas worldwide box office means domestic + international.
