I was originally going to ask people what they thought would be the single most successful movie of 2017 but after realising that everyone was just going to vote for Star Wars I decided to make it the Top 3.
The movies in the poll all have a decent shot at $1 billion.
I'm going with
1. Star Wars: The Last Jedi 2. Beauty and the Beast 3. The Fate of the Furious

I went with Pirates of the Caribbean 5 Transformers 5 and Justice League but the only movie I'm really looking forward to seeing is The Dark Tower.

God willing, none of these. I feel like I've already seen every single of these gleaming turds, and in some sense of the word, we all already have: what a sad parade of zombie franchises that need to be taken behind a woodshed and shot in the head.
My honest hope is that ONE of the top three highest grossing films ISN'T one of the ones you listed. Sickening...

I don't know about Guardians of the Galaxy 2. It'll do well but it doing better than Fast and Furious 8? Seems unlikely.
Some of those movies I have a lot more confidence about hitting $1 billion than Guardians.

I would say this is an easy one:
Star Wars - The Last Jedi - anything Star Wars will always be a moneymaker
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 - first one was huge, and I'm curious to see what Rocket does with Baby Groot!
Beauty and the Beast - will likely hit Cinderella numbers, maybe Jungle Book remake numbers

Beauty and the Beast has 428M one week after the opening. I think this is headed for top 3 WW of 2017.

Some of those movies I have a lot more confidence about hitting $1 billion than Guardians. I think you might be right on this. I do think GG2 will make more than GG1. FF8 will not do as well as FF7. I'd like for GG2 to surpass FF8, but I doubt that happens. I think DM3 will gross more than FF7 or GG2 though. Minions did gross 1.15B two years ago.

It's looking like Beauty and the Beast will definitely be somewhere on the list. I can't think of any other major kids movie coming out other than Despicable Me 3. And Star Wars has to top the list. It obviously will.

Star Wars is a lock to be in the Top 3. Beauty and the Beast will almost surely be in the Top 3 aswell now.
So it just depends what the third movie will be.
I don't think it will be Spider-man or Justice League. Doubtful it'll be Pirates 5 or Guardians of the Galaxy 2, the both might not make $1 billion.
Fast and Furious 8, Despicable Me 3 and Transformers 5 it could be one of those. I still think it'll be Fast and Furious, even if it only makes two thirds of the last one it'll make over a billion.

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 has no chance of outgrossed Fast 8.
Star Wars, Fast 8 and Beauty and the Beast are looking to be the top 3.
