Monday Movie Roundup...3/6/2016

Hey Pepe...

So. Logan.

According to boxofficemojo.com, the film made about $85.3 million in the States over opening weekend. It also made roughly $152.5 million everywhere else, making the total worldwide $237.8 million. 

Now, where does that put it in the grand pantheon of Jackman's career?

Well...it's already done better worldwide than Swordfish, and Pan (to no one's surprise) but also better than The Prestige and Kate and Leopold (which surprises me). But did you know that it hasn't made more than Van Helsing? Did you know that Van Helsing made over $300 million worldwide? The original X-Men only made 296.3 million!

Speaking of the X-Men (and Wolverine) Franchise...

...it's in tenth place right now. Out of ten films. This includes all tie-ins including Deadpool.

...and how about that trailer eh?

Logan has about another $60 million to make to take the #9 spot from X-Men. I give it about a week and a half. And no - I haven't seen it yet. I'm waiting for a matinee when my work schedule allows. I'm also trying like hell to avoid all reviews. Even spoiler-free ones. 

So keep your stuff to yourself.

Have a good week Pepe!
