 Hey, what is going on everyone it is be Avery here, and I'm very happy right now I am very happy because I am still on this Black Panther high. It is doing very well It is being received well by the audience It is being received well by the critics and it is also being received well by the box office And that is what we're gonna be talking about today. I have now seen the film four times I Caught it early, and then I went Thursday night I went Friday night and today is Wednesday. I also went Tuesday night And so I am very glad that I was able to contribute to the box-optic success of Black Panther now some people may be a little upset about that and we'll talk about that later on in the video But you know I am through the roof. I am very excited and that's what we're gonna be talking about today So I'm filming this video right now on Wednesday I was gonna make a Black Panther box office results video on Sunday when their estimated numbers first came out But I was like no this is a four-day weekend is president's president's day weekend And these are the estimates as well even if it wasn't the four-day weekend president's day weekend I still wanted to have the actual numbers because you know Sunday is usually the estimates then Monday is usually The actual numbers but then Monday came around and they still didn't release the actual numbers I mean at first the estimator was around 192 million and then you know for for the three-day and for the four-day It was at 210 or 215 then Monday came and they said that was around 201 million dollars and that the four day for the three-day and then the four day would be around 230 million dollars, but it still was the estimated but Tuesday evening Tuesday afternoon Yesterday the actual numbers came out and I am through the roof and you actually have it for the three-day weekend 202 million dollars three thousand nine hundred two two hundred two million three thousand nine hundred fifty one dollars and I am ecstatic for that and The four-day weekend 242 million one hundred fifty five thousand six hundred and eighty dollars that just makes me extremely happy This movie is doing hell of a great job all around the world And I am just so fascinated by that and it hasn't even opened in China yet It doesn't open into in China until March 9th And the reason why China is such a big deal to me is because of course this is an American movie You know around the world the United States where I am right now We have the largest block we have the largest box office, but China is always number two I'm really interested in this. I mean usually these Marvel films average out to about 100 million dollars in China But with this with this being a predominantly black cast I don't know how well they're going to receive the movie And so we're just going to have to see the only other location that hasn't opened up is Japan which is March 1st in China March 9th, and then we have Russia it opens tomorrow February 22nd Estonia February 23rd, and then you have Russia February the 26th So I'm really happy about that the first record that you know And I remember the tracking when this first came out for this movie that was saying okay It's gonna be around a hundred million dollars and then 150 and I was like, I don't know guys I'm thinking it could be around at 175 million dollar mark And then when the Thursday previews came out with it being making 25 point two million dollars at Thursday night Which is bunched in with Friday Equaling out to a total of 75 million dollars. I was like man. Hold on. I think that you know This may have a slight chance of Making the 200 million dollar mark and when the estimates came out I was like man That's so unfortunate. It didn't make 200 million in May was around 192 And I didn't think he was going to jump that four percent But it did and so what I'm most depressed about is there are only five films in all of cinematic history They have made the 200 million dollar mark for the three-day weekend Those being Star Wars the Force Awakens which came out of 2015 at 247 million Star Wars the last Jedi which came out December of last year 2017 220 million Jurassic World 208 million Marvel's the Avengers 207 million in Black Panther 202 million dollars that is freaking amazing and with the way, you know We still got to wait another week or two just to really kind of get a sense of how it's doing overseas But you know, you can just throw all those dumb rumors away They're predominantly black films or black left films do not do well internationally. That is not true. That is garbage right now Let's see where it's sitting at Overall worldwide. I believe that is right now 462 million dollars four hundred sixty two million two hundred and thirteen and forty one Dollars now the budget for this was two hundred million dollars and I am very surprised by that because Usually for a first solo film with Marvel it could range anywhere between 130 million to around 160 million the cheapest film that they have ever put out was the 130 million dollars by Ant-Man which came out in 2015 and let me see if I can pull up on the other Marvel films real quick And gets a series not a series But an indication of what their budgets would be and I'm not going to do that because it's going to take me too Long but is the cheapest that they've ever done was a hundred and thirty million Their most expensive film Was either Captain America Civil War that came out in 2016 or Avengers 2 Avengers Age of Ultron Captain America Civil War Captain America 3 was 250 million and Avengers Age of Ultron was 250 million The Avengers was 220 million dollars and this one was 200 million dollars. The only other film That was around this amount of money was Iron Man 3 I'm not speaking about that. I'm speaking about the budget here. Let me see what they does I think it was just 200 million dollars even. Why is not Iron Man coming up? Okay, hold on real quick guys Be patient with me. I don't know why I typed in Iron Man, but for some reason Iron Man doesn't want to pop up So I'm just I gotta find this real quick because it's that important to me All right, where you at Iron Man 2? I'm where's Iron Man 3 it's Iron Man 3. What was your budget? Yeah, Iron Man was 200 and million dollars as well and $200 million as well and that grows 1.2 billion dollars worldwide And so I'm just gonna go ahead and say this make this declaration that Black Panther will make one billion dollars worldwide. I am just very confident in that I find that highly likely I still probably need to wait till next weekend just to see really where all the we're standing at, you know Internationally, but I think it will hit one billion dollars. Not only though. I think it will hit one billion dollars I'm gonna go ahead and call it right now Avengers not Avengers Black Panther is gonna hit 1.5 Billion dollars worldwide. Yes, it is now if it does that it is in the running to Be out of the 18 Marvel Cinematic Universities and the MCU it has a chance to be The most successful worldwide because right now Avengers that came out in 2012. That is a 1.5 billion to be exact 1 billion 518 million 800. I'm sorry 1 billion 518 million 812,988 dollars This will be that I'm just gonna yeah, I just I just feel it I feel it that around the world are gonna be like, yeah black people. Yeah I'm teasing. No, I really do feel like it's gonna hit that one point five one point one billion dollars That's just a given to me So, you know, let's just go ahead and you know put that in the bag But yeah, we're it's gonna make boo-koo money and right now the results for Tuesday has come out as well yesterday And that's at 20 million dollars now. Let me also show you something else. Let's let's talk about something else Oh, we got two things opening weekend showdown. This is between Okay, they added a couple of more films in here I'm on box office module right now They had what I love about box office modules They have these showdowns and what they did was they said MCU top openers and they have it between Avengers Age of Ultron the Avengers Captain America 3 and Black Panther So when I go to it by the daily amount, of course yesterday We're not yesterday of course Black Panther be everybody on Monday with 40 million dollars on Monday Because Avengers Age of Ultron had 13 million the Avengers that one had 18 million Captain America 3 had 13 million, but Black Panther had 40 million dollars now when you first glance at that you can probably say, oh, that's just great word of mouth You know, yeah, you can say that but at the same time Monday was a holiday A lot of people were off work. And so that's another reason why they went to go get their booze But when you look at Tuesday, that is a true indicator because to this is Wednesday Tuesday yesterday There was not a holiday. So it's just even across the board Now the first Tuesday after the initial Friday release for Age of Ultron was 13 million dollars The first Avengers was 18 million dollars Captain America 3 Captain America Civil War was 13 million dollars as well But Black Panther was 20 million dollars for Tuesday. So that's a regular day. It's not a holiday So it is outpacing all of it is outpacing, you know, all of these films. So, you know, it has a chance to You know, this film may make domestically 500 million dollars. Let's just go ahead and say that 500 million dollars Now Age of Ultron domestically made Where we are here 459 million dollars domestically Captain America Civil War made 408 million dollars domestically and the Avengers one made 220 not 200 623 million dollars domestically. So right now Black Panther is at 263 Domestically, I think it will at least get up to 500 million. I don't want to go as far as saying that it'll make $600 million domestically. I'm not sure but you know black people. Hey, they may Well, not just black people everybody But of course, you know black people have already seen this film two three times already I've seen it four times and usually people that I know that only go see these Marvel films at least once They've already told me I want to go see it twice three times. One of my homeboys was like I want to he's like I'm going Thursday night Probably gonna wait a while I'm like, but why not gonna see it again? It was like, you know, I don't know This is before the movie came out the movie came out and just like me His opinion was like it was a great movie. It wasn't the best thing in the world It still has some flaws and errors and you know, Black Panther was not perfect And to be honest, it is not my favorite in the whole Marvel Cinematic Universe I talked about that at the end of my spoiler review, which you can go check it out But he still he went to go see it again the second time and I know some people are going on the third time You know and fourth time. So, you know, we we got that there now Black well, I was going to say something else before I got into the other records But I'm pretty sure this is going to gross over five hundred million dollars Domestically, I'm pretty sure it's going to I'm confident that it'll get to 1.5 billion worldwide The theater average for this was a fifty thousand two hundred and fifty dollars. That's pretty good as well And so, you know, this thing is just, you know making a hell of a lot of money And I am overjoyed. Now some of the other records that it had This is the largest February opening weekend of all time The previous record holder was Deadpool at one hundred and thirty two million dollars and this made two hundred and two Million dollars and that was for the three-day weekend for Deadpool. This is two hundred and two It was also the largest winter season opener weekend as well for the three-day weekend at 202 Deadpool was the previous record holder of that This is the largest Presidents day weekend opener at two hundred and forty two million and the previous record holder for that was Deadpool for the four-day at 152 million. This is the largest Monday ever the previous record holder was Star Wars the Force Awakens at forty million one hundred and nine forty million one hundred and nine For I can't count forty million one hundred nine thousand seven hundred and forty two now They should have put an asterisk by this because Star Wars the Force Awakens Open in December and Monday was not a holiday But Black Panther got this boost the highest Monday opener because it had Monday was a holiday so you have to put a little asterisk there and Also, this was the largest preview gross in the month of February at twenty five point two million dollars The previous record holder was Deadpool at twelve point seven now the only other film that Grows some more on the Thursday night preview I believe I don't I can't remember if this is all time or just in the MCU But that's Avengers or Age of Ultron at twenty seven million dollars Says beyond those charts Black Panther places second only to Star Wars the Force Awakens as the Second highest 40 day gross of all time And that was a shy about $185,000 Black Panther also places only second to Avengers on several charts including the second highest opening for a comic book adaptation For the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Marvel comic adaptations for a superhero movie And then you know, it's just some other stuff that's kind of like pointless facts. I don't I don't always like you know Listing every step because some steps are pointless to me for example I hate when certain news publications will post on their headline so and so movie It has the best opening world why that is a dumb stat to me The reason why is you should only consider the biggest opening for a specific country not worldwide The reason why is every film that's released each week does not open in the same amount of territory as all at the same time So if you have movie a that they're opening weekend around the world It was in 20 countries and then you have movie B that opening weekend. It was 30 countries Well, of course the one with more countries opening at the same time is gonna have a bigger box office So the only way that step matters to me is if every movie released Opens up at the same amount of different territories around the world at the same time and that just doesn't happen You know because for example one may be saying well Brandon Black Panther opening so many countries with Black Panther on February 16th of the week of February 16th Why didn't it open in China? You know at this time time Well, China has their own film industry over there What if they have like big blockbuster Chinese films that are opening on February 16th with Marvel Disney want to compete with those? No, they will want to like a let's find a weekend in China So where there's not a big budget movie in China that's releasing and release our movie at that time So it's not competing with everyone else or something like that, you know So, you know, you always have to look at those things like that But Black Panther is making tons of money. I am so happy. I am thrilled. I may even go see this a fifth time I Got me some gift cards to the movies for Christmas and I'm gonna use them I don't mind if I use them for Black Panther. Hey, I got to use them So, you know, hey, why not now there's some other things that I want to address some of the backlash There are so many different groups of people on this country on this planet You know, there are certain different groups of people in the in the white community But the brown community or the the Asian community even the black community, you know And there is just a small sect group of people that are black. They are just making these dumb Claims just saying oh my god. Why are y'all bragging about Black Panther making all that money? It ain't doing nothing but going to the white man and white supremacy is gonna take it in fuel and blah blah blah blah blah Okay Yeah, it is only going to the white man. So what but what this movie is doing is opening the door So that black people around the world can get proper Representation not just in this country All around the world because usually we only get big-budget films if we are thugs gangsters Drug addicts or comedians or things like that, you know, Michael John White did her interview recently recently with Rick N'Sheed on the ism radio podcast and You know, he is a avid vivid martial artist and he was just saying that it's crap How the stereotype is that black films don't do well overseas or don't do well period I think Black Panther is breaking all that just showing everybody that has the money and any film production company Well, hey, man, you know, not only should we have You know films with a predominantly white cast But maybe we should have films that you know with the female lead like Wonder Woman now people brought up, you know films like Electra Catwoman and Aon Flux how those are women live films and they didn't do well at the box office Well primarily because those movies sucked the movie has to be good too and Wonder Woman Of course, this came out was a 2016 or 2016 I think I don't know why my keyboard doesn't want to work right now When I'm online Come on keyboard. I have some delay. Maybe I need to delete some files What I was trying to do no Wonder Woman not Warner woman Wonder woman. I was trying to see what the box office. I think it's a 850 million for Wonder Woman or 821 million dollars for Wonder Woman. That's hella good So not only do can we just not have a predominantly white fans We can have films with predominantly led by women They make money and now we can have films with the all-black cast as well every once in a while I'm not saying all the time, you know spread it out You know all these films can make money and also what this also says with February it go It helps my argument It helps my point out because I made up another video a couple of weeks ago Asking is Disney and 20th Century Fox insane because they're clumping up other movies in March with Black Panther being so successful in February that just shows that it really does not matter when you release a movie a year around that if you just release it and it's a Good movie that it will make money no matter what and in that other video I was talking about how I wish all other films are spread apart How we could have Black Panther in February a wrinkle of time in March new mutants Which got pushed the next year in April Avengers Avengers Infinity War in May Deadpool in June Ant-Man and the Wasp in July and then the Star Wars solo movie in August breaking September Venom in in October. Yeah, blah blah blah Helps my point there, but What am I trying to say here? Yeah, it really doesn't matter where you release a film You can have it in February, but to those people just talking about this is just going to the white man No, this is opening up the door. Yeah, it is but this is opening up the door For black writers black producers black directors because Joe Robert Cole was the writer Ryan Cougler was the writer and director as well and Alan not Alan Moore Dang, what does this do his name? That directed black paint not That direct not that produced black pants. I forgot his name real quick. He's a Nate Moore I don't even got to look it up. I remember he was black, too This is opening the door for us to get more films made and if you feel this way that you know This movie is going to the white man if that's the case, okay fine You can feel that way but make sure you never ever ever go see another big-budget blockbuster film in theater Make sure you stop buying all you know foreign cars or American made cars Stop make sure that you just stop buying all clothes if it's not You know made by a black brand, you know, maybe you can hit up Damon John and we can do football again Hey, I bought it back in day The old way your cell phone because that's going to white people to your taxes that you pay You know every you know all the time. That's going to the white man as well The social media platforms that you have with the way you complaining on Instagram and YouTube on Facebook That's going to white people to so just to go ahead and deactivate all those accounts You know, don't pay any more your bills You know, don't buy any I mean now you may say well, I have to buy those things, okay Well, you know, don't go to Walmart anymore one of these people in this video was talking about how this money is going on a white man But at the same another video that was bragging about a Superman Sweatshirt they had that they bought at Walmart So, okay, if you do feel their way that the money is going to the white man and they're just serving white supremacy You know, I need you to boycott everything else and I need you to deactivate your social media platforms Because that's been monetized and they're making money off that as well So, you know, if you're gonna complain about Black Panther with the money going on the white people, which is so stupid You know, you may you need to make a complaint about everything else and go live in the hut I mean, I can keep talking about that given more examples But I think y'all get my point and I don't want to I don't want to spend too much time on that There are also people out there that are trying to find every idiotic rhyme a reason to talk down on this movie I think the fan the you know making straw man arguments is talking about. Oh, well, you know kill me all hell kill manga or whatever You know, I'm saying, you know a Black Panther teamed up with the CIA to you know, stop a revolution You know, I don't know why y'all praising the Wakanda's and praising the Chala kill manga was a true hero Well, you know this same person is also making an argument saying that they You know Don't get mad at my critique. That is why we pay film critics to critique artwork in entertainment to get down to the nitty-gritty But in the same breath you're ignoring our critics because you're not the only one making an argument everybody love kill monger Ain't nobody coming out this movie talking about all praise to Chala. I'll praise Black Panther. I everybody I think like kill monger more than More than Black Panther. He was my favorite character in the movie. He had a just reason to be angry So some people just negative cynics Contrains they're trying to twist everything and be negative about everything no every all you time I look the critics everybody loved everybody love kill monger Everybody stated that it was difficult to villainize him because he had a just reason to be angry or whatever So what are you talking about? But anyway, this move this is not not this movie This video is mainly about the box office. It's the top It's in the top is the fifth best opening of all time for the three-day weekend at 202 million and made 245 million for the four-day and I'm so excited. This will make 500 million Domestically at least and I know it will make one billion dollars worldwide But I think it has a strong chance of making 1.5 billion dollars I also want my thing people are also really complaining about the paycheck that Chaswick Boseman got. Okay That's somewhat fair, but let's look at all the facts here One of the facts I'm not gonna like but let's just look at all the facts. First of all Marvin's always been known to be cheap They've always paid everybody cheap. Oh, well Brandon to pay or up down in junior forty fifty million dollars for Iron Man Or no matter Avengers. I'll get to that second Chadwick Boseman got those a leaked image going around talking about Chadwick Got 800k for this movie. I think that's a false I believe he got around 300k with all the research and reporting that I've done Well, guess what guys? That is the same exact amount that Chris Evans Captain America got for his first solo movie Captain America, which came out in 2011 So they got paid the same also Chris Hemsworth. He got 200k for his first store solo film So Chadwick even got more Robert Downey junior got 500k for Iron Man 1 So that's the same now Chris Evans and everybody else they got a boost for their first Avengers film around between two three And six million dollars or whatever. So with Chadwick Boseman, I'm pretty sure that he will get a boost for his first Avengers film He hasn't appeared in Avengers film yet. He will in just a couple of months I don't know what he got for Captain America Civil War, but now he's locked in actually Chadwick is smart He's locked in at least the amount of films everybody else everybody else was sounding like six picture deals and non-picture deals Chadwick Boseman only sound five Sando for five, you know and which was one Captain America Civil War two Black Panther films and two Avengers films So affinity was gonna be his third and this because they said he's locked in yes He's locked in he has to come back to fulfill that those films whether he wants to or not But that does not mean that he won't get a bigger paycheck Chris Evans and everybody else Chris Hemsworth Robert Downey junior got a big paycheck Chadwick Boseman will too if he doesn't Then I will be pissed. I'm not pissed now because I just been following the reporting So you just have to look at all the facts and also the 40 million dollars I was just talking to somebody before I turned on this thing up some over Robert Downey junior was a drug addict and you know Blah blah, okay, you know, he stopped doing drugs in 2003. You know, hey, that was his past I'm not judging a man, but he got their 40 million dollars off of a backhand bonus deal. Nobody else got that That was just his agent doing great negotiating, but that wasn't an anomaly because Marvel Disney did not know how much Avengers 1 that made 1.5 billion dollars. They didn't know it was gonna make that much and so through clever Not clever marketing, but through clever negotiating his agent was able to get him that much But if I everybody in the film community knows this but every, you know A lot of my audience don't know that my new audience doesn't know this now There was an anomaly and Marvel and Disney was extremely uber pissed by that It will never happen again Unless a film grosses like an astronomical amount of money, but that nearly ruined Robert Downey junior's relationship with Marvel Disney again, everybody in the film community knows this This has been been reported on over and over and over for years He barely got into Captain America Civil War because he got greedy and was like, oh, I'm you know Which was messed up when he first came over to Marvel. He was like, yeah, I used to be you know I used to have problems You know, but Marvel gave me a chance and got me back on track in Hollywood and Iron Man has taken off So that was cool that it was humble, but then all of a sudden he changed his tone again was like, hey, you know I'm the S H R T And a bag of chips and he got greedy, you know what all these demands and so he wanted to make that movie the judge And that movie the judge did not they came out of 2014 It did not make any money at all because he was talking about how he probably didn't want to do the role anymore Which every actor says that that's just a negotiation tool. You don't want to be like, oh, I'm gonna do these films forever You know, then they're not gonna pay you anything. You gotta you know kind of play the play the game a little bit there But when the judge didn't make any money It was the budget was 50 million dollars and it grows 84 million worldwide that lost the studio money And then I got a list of this in here real quick a lot of people like what a minute Brennan If you take the 84 million and you subtract 30 50 million that it profited 30 million dollars. No the 84 million about 30% of 30 to 40% of that goes to the That goes to the studio or they don't just pay they don't just They don't just play movies for free. They don't just live off concessions or whatever. So if I take 84 This is times point three five All right, that's 29 point four million dollars. I'm around it down so 84 minus 29 That's 55 million dollars. Well, then you'd be like, well, no, it grow and they profit five million dollars No, because the production budget is five million and 50 million and it does not take into the marketing budget Which let's just say it's 25 million dollars is half of that Because at the minimum is 20. So, you know the film actually really costs 75 million and You know, it grows 55 million when you take out The part of the theater got so it lost money. So, you know after the judge he realized oh I'm not really making money by myself. Let me do these Marvel things a long time. And so that's that but anyway guys I don't mean I've been talking for 30 minutes. Golly. I did not mean to talk this long But uh, yeah guys, I'm very happy this month this month this this This movie Black Panther is making money and I may talk again next Sunday or Monday for week two of the box office results But guys, that is just my opinion That is just my thoughts for the Black Panther actual box office numbers not the estimate What did you think are you happy or you don't really care about these box office numbers?
