    Showing signs of good legs all around but it is pretty heavily leaning DOM. Has a better chance at getting close to Man of Steel’s WW total (and will absolutely beat it DOM by 100M+). Much better...

    Showing signs of good legs all around but it is pretty heavily leaning DOM. Has a better chance at getting close to Man of Steel’s WW total (and will absolutely beat it DOM by 100M+). Much better outlook overall we just need to see how it does against F4.

      Actual ticket sales have been on a downward slide since the early 2000s, and were basically cut in half post-pandemic. So I'm not sure there's much point in comparing Superman to Man of Steel, other than to say "yes, ticket prices did go up." (They went way up to make up most of the lost ground.) It's getting into the same territory as comparing films from the era of multiple theatrical runs to a post home video world.
