With almost 700 million dollars collected at world box office in a couple of weeks, Super Mario Bros. – The Movie has become the biggest worldwide gross of 2023: of course we are still in April, so this realization can be a starting point to recap what are the upcoming blockbustersbetween now and the end of the year, capable of undermining his record (it is a record still in the making, analysts estimate that it will eventually settle at one billion dollars).

Before building the quick excursus on blockbuster which could undermine the worldwide box office of Super Mario Bros. – The Moviewe emphasize that this is a game on the numbers: we’re not listing movies that are “worth seeing” or all big-budget movies. We just enjoy making predictions and sharing them with you, freewheeling but with a criterion guided by the air we breathe every day on Comingsoon and on sites that analyze collections on a weekly basis. Also and always remember that the real success of a film is measured in relative terms, of takings in relation to the cost, not only in absolute terms.
I Marvel Studios will reach the billion dollar mark with Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 (in theaters from May 3) e The Marvels (November 8)? Up until a year ago and a little more we would have taken it for granted, yet the Ant-Man 3 flopped has displaced everyone, let’s imagine the same authors of Marvel Cinematic Universe. Black Panther 2 however recorded 860 million, so there are no certainties but certainly excellent hopes, specifically for Star Lord and associates (in case they disappoint, we wouldn’t bet on a recovery of Captain Marvel & C.).
Be careful in May, especially the arrival of Fast X he 18: the saga di Fast & Furious it never disappoints at the box office, and this in addition is the first act of its presumed epilogue. Chapter 9 took home a total of $726,230,000 in mid-pandemic. On the 24th, however, the remake Disney from the Mermaid: already full of controversy about the political correctness of some choices, however it is consequently very, very much discussed on social media. Advertising is at an all-time high, and these remakes have demonstrated time and time again over the years unsuspected ability to climb the box office.
I DC Studios Will they be able to carve a niche in this battle? Doesn’t seem likely: a The Flash from 14 June and Aquaman and the Lost Realm from December 25th it’s time to pick up the pieces of the revolution underway at Warner Bros. Discoveryclosing the former management, waiting for James Gunn and Peter Safran to restart the DC Universe. Il Shazam flop! Fury of the Gods it makes things more difficult for them, but we still think they will defend themselves.
Moderate attention to blockbuster d’autorenot entirely sure bets, therefore not automatic explosions at the box office, but not to be underestimated: from 28 June it will be curious to understand how the public will welcome the eighty-year-old Indy from Harrison Ford in Indiana Jones and the Quadrant of Destinyjust as it will be necessary to check the tightness of Dune Part 2 by Denis Villeneuve, in theaters from 1 November (the previous one however collected 400 million in 2021).
In the field of animated filmwe don’t think there are any proposals capable of undermining the numbers of Super Mario Bros. – The film, and the only film with plausible large-boxing seems to be the long-awaited Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse (in cinemas from June 1st), the colorful and acrobatic sequel to Spider-Man: A new universe, still edited by Sony Pictures Animation.
We deliberately kept the film that in our opinion the good Super Mario should fear most of all: from 12 July Tom Cruise you scatapicolla in the room with Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning – Parte Uno. Not only did the latest Mission Impossible Fallout gross nearly $792 million worldwide, but this other “half-curtain” like Fast X comes on the heels of the cruisian triumph of Top Gun Maverick. Tom is serious, in every sense: Oh mama!
