Aquaman sinks at the box office.

Fake news: the only news worth reading:

Aquaman is only able to claim the number 1 position with $70 million.
President Trump claims he is unimpressed with the Aquaman movie.
If Trump was aquaman, he would be the ruler of not only the seas, but the entire world.
Bigger than Superman and Batman combined.

We need superheroes like Trump, who can blast out their superpowers to the world.

Box Office: ‘Aquaman’ to Claim No. 1 Spot With $70 Million



The DC universe’s latest installment, “Aquaman,” is headed for a splashy debut, with an estimated $70 million from 4,125 North American locations.

The forecast sits at the higher end of most predictions for the film’s pre-Christmas debut. “Aquaman” has amassed $350.7 million internationally, including $18.9 million on Friday. Jason Momoa stars as the titular hero, with Nicole Kidman, Amber Heard and Patrick Wilson co-starring.

Warner Bros. gave the film a pricey $200 million budget, which it has already recouped overseas. It’s the first standalone DCU film since 2017’s “Wonder Woman,” which debuted with $103 million last year, eventually totaling $412 million domestically.

The Transformers franchise’s newest addition, “Bumblebee,” is edging “Mary Poppins Returns” for second place with an estimated $22 million from 3,550 domestic sites, compared to “Mary Poppins'” $21 million.

“Bumblebee” earned $8.46 million on Friday with $2.15 million from Thursday previews. The Paramount pic opens in China, which has proven to be the “Transformers” franchise’s most successful market, on Jan. 4.

The sixth “Transformers” pic tapped Travis Knight to direct from Christina Hodson’s screenplay, rather than franchise regular Michael Bay. Hailee Steinfeld stars in the prequel, alongside John Cena, Jorge Lendeborg Jr., John Ortiz, and Pamela Adlon. The sci-fi action film has a 94% certified fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, by far the best score of any “Transformers” installment, and an A- CinemaScore.

Emily Blunt and Lin-Manuel Miranda’s “Mary Poppins” sequel is debuting at 4,090 theaters, and coming in slightly below earlier predictions. Rob Marshall directed the Disney film, which has a 77% certified fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes and A- CinemaScore. Ben Wishaw, Emily Mortimer, Dick Van Dyke, Julie Walters, Colin Firth, Meryl Streep, and Angela Lansbury also star.

Sony-Marvel’s “Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse” is estimated to scoop up another $17.45 million in its sophomore frame to land fourth place, bringing its domestic total to $65.5 million. The animated superhero film earned $6.6 million Friday in its China debut, taking first place for the day.

Clint Eastwood’s crime drama “The Mule” should round out the top five with about $9 million in its second weekend. It’s totaled $29.9 million in its first eight days.

Romantic comedy “Second Act,” starring Jennifer Lopez, is debuting at No. 7 from 2,607 domestic sites. The STX Films pic should take in around $7 million from a $16 million budget, which is in line with earlier estimates. Peter Segal directed from Justin Zackham and Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas’s script, which follows Lopez as a low-paid employee who gets a chance to fulfill her ambitions when a firm mistakes her for a powerful consultant and hires her to negotiate an important deal. Leah Remini and Vanessa Hudgens also star. The film has a 42% RT score and a B+ CinemaScore.

At the specialty box office, awards contender and Poland’s foreign language Oscar submission “Cold War” will debut at three theaters for Amazon Studios. “Ida” helmer Paweł Pawlikowski directed from his own script.

Actually the box office takes for Aquaman are 488 millions worldwide as of Dec 23 making it the 9th best opening take for the month of December. Unless something changes then it's North American box office takes will not be very good but no one will care if it gets close to a billion with the rest of the World.

It has an -A CinemaScore which is quite good and while the Registered critics at Rotten Tomatoes are only giving the film a 64% rating. Audiences are giving it an 86%.

The movie that should be doing much better is Bumblebee because it's a very good. In fact it's the kind of movie you wish most of the previous Transformers had been like. Long live the Brown Coats.

Though I prefer Marvel, DC did bring out some enjoyable movies.
The biggest problem I have with DC is that all their movies are not connected. Every marvel movie and series takes place in one universe (except the fox ones, but those are in a minority).
For example, the batman trilogy, Suicide squad, Justice league, the Gotham series; Each one features a different batman, having absolutely no connection with eachother.

Saw it. Really sucked. Might have walked out except my wife and daughter could not stop laughing (at parts that were not supposed to be funny...). The opening scene included CGI to make Kidman and Morrison look younger. Dumbest move ever. All I could think of was the awful CGI of Superman's upper lip in that other DC movie. And that was just the first 5 minutes. Apparently little things like physics, chemistry, gravity, engineering and architecture don't matter. The list is absolutely endless but I'll give you a few. How can voices be the same in air and under water? How can one float when covered with armor but still need to flail your hands (just a little) to move around. How can you clearly see lava flowing underwater when it instantly vaporizes water and solidifies into tunnels in real life? How can Atlantans stand and run and fight on land when they spend their entire life floating in water? And one of my favorites, why were the palace floors polished when nobody ever actually walked on them? I am all for a little creative license (telepathy, waterbending, magic) and there were some campy moments, but overall it was really, really awful. Skippy
