So, by comparing most solo comic book superhero movies and by comparing most Batman movies, the notion of The Batman hitting $1 billion was no more realistic than pre-Covid expectations for same concerning Black Widow, No Time to Die or Wonder Woman 1984.

Even in 2008, with everything going right, The Dark Knight earned $471 million outside of North America, or $5 million less than Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull and just $5 million more than Mamma Mia!

Otherwise, and yes I’m including The LEGO Batman Movie ($176 million out of $312 million in North America), Batman movies (like Star Wars movies, natch) have been mostly domestic-centric blockbusters. The Dark Knight Rises is the sole solo Batman movie exception, being a successful Dark Knight flick that earned 58% (including $53 million in China) of its $1.084 billion gross outside of North America. Batman v Superman earned 62% of its $873 million cume overseas, while Justice League earned 65% of its $658 million cume, but are those were ensemble pictures. Batman & Robin earned 55% of its $238 million global gross overseas, but it was still a flop on a $125 million budget. Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, Batman Begins and The Dark Knight all earned at least 50% of their global grosses in North America. Moreover, and this is key, the Batman franchise has always been a domestically-centric one. But legs are long, with domestic arguably over performing not unlike Wonder Woman in 2017, and there’s little reason to think that audiences didn’t like what they got and won’t come back for more. If reviews had been poor and/or legs had been short, then we might be concerned that The Batman may end up below No Time to Die ($774 million, including $160 million domestic and $60 million in China). Sure, The Batman cost $185 million (as opposed to Venom’s $90 million and Deadpool 2’s $110 million), but $742 million is four times that production budget figure. As for worldwide, it’ll probably end up with about as much as we’d accepted as successful for a number of very big comic book superhero movies (including, yes the two Deadpool films, the first Wonder Woman and the first Venom). It’ll pass Thor 3 and Spider-Man 1 version 3.0 (along with Guardians 1 and Deadpool 2) domestically by the end of next weekend, with Deadpool ($363 million) and Guardians 2 still in reach. The Batman will make likely more domestically but (presumably) less worldwide than those films. How about Thor: Ragnarok, which grossed $315 million domestic (from a $123 million debut) and $854 million worldwide. It earned “just” $881 million on a $170 million budget. How about Marvel’s Spider-Man: Homecoming? That Spidey flick was a quasi-sequel to Captain America: Civil War (which introduced Tom Holland’s Peter Parker), had all of the MCU fandom/baggage attached and co-starred (in a heavily-advertised extended cameo) Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man. Is James Gunn’s second MCU movie, a breakout sequel that opened 55% bigger ($146 million) than its predecessor and earned 17% more ($390 million) domestic and 12% more ($869 million) than its predecessor a retroactive flop now?

A $740 million sans-China gross plus $120 million from China would push it to $860 million, or about on par with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.

“President Xi expressed his gratitude and wished the summit a complete success,” the statement said.But even idealistically speaking, it’s possible that a pre-Covid China could have added another over/under $100 million to The Batman’s global gross, meaning a global cume closer to $900 million than $800 million.

Jokowi invited Xi to Indonesia for the November summit, according to their joint statement. Some G20 member states have threatened to boycott this year’s leaders’ summit on the island of Bali on November 15-16 if Putin attends. While China has not condemned its strategic partner Russia for the invasion, it has repeatedly called for a cessation of hostilities and offered to help advance peace talks.īoth Indonesia and Russia are part of the G20, with the former taking over the group’s presidency this year. Jokowi said Indonesia was ready to be a “bridge of communication” between the two. Last month, he traveled to Ukraine to meet President Volodymyr Zelensky, as well as to Moscow for talks with Putin. Jokowi met Li and Xi at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, part of a sprawling complex of villas, lakes and gardens where many foreign leaders, including the late US President Richard Nixon, were received.Īs president of the G20 this year, Jokowi has sought to mend the divisions within the group that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine exposed.
