Rather disappointing for Spider-Man too as that is a 61.4% week-on-week drop which is larger than I was hoping for. At least it's already up to $469,370,314 worldwide which is not too shabby.

Disney’s animated threequel grossed $3.42m (£2.63m) from its 517 sites, narrowly behind Cars’ $3.49m (£2.67m) bow from 513 sites which was the lowest Pixar debut to date. Cars franchise rekT again!

That is pretty worrying for Cars too, it seems to have been out for ages now worldwide and is only $224 million worldwide whilst the last one grossed $562.1 million worldwide so not even halfway yet. It seems like the bad reviews for Cars 2 really killed off a lot of good-will that Pixar had at the time.

I genuinely didn't see any promo for it until about 2 weeks before which is bizarre for a huge blockbuster. I'm intrigued to see if the great reviews can keep it afloat. Woah at 'Cars 3' though I've still not seen the 2nd, but the reviews seemed to be favourable for this one, right? But I guess that's what they get for going against a recently fresh 'Despicable Me 3'.

Dwayne Johnson won't appear as Black Adam. - Pacific Rim teaser - Avengers: Infinity War concept art As much as I'd like Fantastic Four to just be return to Disney Marvel, a Dr Doom solo movie actually sounds pretty interesting and I'd definitely check it out. I like the Avengers art too, this film is going to be jam-packed full of A-listers -

Stan Lee is apparently optimistic about Marvel Studios getting back the rights for both the X-Men and Fantastic 4 characters/working with Fox just like they did with Sony for Spiderman! http://comicbook.com/marvel/2017/09/13/sta...stic-four-back/ Ahhh. Exciting. Please be true!
