Will Black Panther be bigger than WW or Deadpool???

"You're falling back on that tired "Chinese people are racist!" defense?"

But that's the reality. Do you ever read, or watch the news, or were you ever in China before? I was. and i saw it with my very own eyes, how bad racism in China is, especially towards black people.

Lets look at the numbers.



Wonder Woman:

Domestic: $412 million

Foreign: $409 million

Total: $821 million



Deadpool:

Domestic: $363 million

Foreign: $420 million

Total: $783 million



It's highly unlikely for Black Panther to beat Wonder Woman's domestic total of $412 million. That being said Wonder Woman's foreign totals were a little sluggish. Put another way:Wonder Woman was a cultural phenomenon in the US not so much elsewhere.

Usually foreign revenue is more than domestic. Seen as a percentage of foreign vs total. For instance Civil War made 1.153 billion total and foreign market was 745 million so 64% of Civil War's earning came from foreign market.

Justice League: 65%

Ant-Man: 65%

Spiderman hc: 62%

BvS: 62%

X-Men:
Days of Future Past: 68%

X-men Apocalypse:71%

The Amazing Spider-Man: 65%

Thor: 59%



I could keep going, but usually foreign grosses are more than half of total gross. This didn't happen with Wonder Woman. It's was 49%. You could look at that as a glass half empty or half full. Either her foreign gross are extremely anemic or her domestic's were gang busters.



So can BP beat Wonder Woman domestically? I'd say no unless it becomes a cultural phenomenon like WW. Now it could beat WW in foreign and total. That isn't out of the question. BP will have to do great everywhere but also in the Chinese Market if it's released there. It might not be released there, but MCU has gotten into China pretty easily before. So with the caveat of not beating WW domestically BP could still beat it World Wide.



Now speaking of Chinese market Deadpool wasn't released there (and it's foreign percentage was still 53%) so that's an advantage if BP does. Deadpool also was a cultural phenomenon aided by a fucking brilliant marketing campaign, good movie, and a passion product of Ryan Reynolds. So Deadpool is in the same boat as WW for different reasons. If BP is released in China, and it does well there, then it's conceivable that BP could do better than DP World Wide but not domestically.



All of this could be turned on it's head with a massive unforeseen flop. (highly dubious) or fucking massive hit getting a billion in World Wide gross. (also highly dubious)

Of course your original posts exist, the "fixed" thing isn't about that. What it IS about is showing how thin skinned you are that you can't handle someone who disagrees with you, which begs the question of why you came to these boards to begin with. It isn't like you accept anyone else's opinion.

But YOU'RE the one who is teasing any uptight posters that overreact to everything.

Looks like Black Panther will released in China on March 9th. (Hong Kong on Feb 15th) Is it still your Opinion that even with China, Wonder Woman will still beat Black Panther Foreign box office?
