OMB Reviews reviews box office figures and their tracking. “Things are just not looking very good for this franchise and also not looking good for the MCU going forward because $500 million is what I have as its break-even point. Some people have $600 million at its break-even point.”
“If this film is barely going to get to $500 million or cross $500 million and get maybe $11 million in profit, which would be kind of the lowest end of the range that I have for this movie as far as profits are concerned that is abysmal,” He weighed in.
He elaborated, “It’s still making your money back and it’s still making a ‘little bit of profit,’ but ultimately when everything comes down to it, it is definitely not worth, again especially compared to the $200 million investment you put into the film to only get $11 million back.”

His analysis will include a comparison later in the process. Thor: Love and Thunder Doctor Strange in The Multiverse of Madness To Ant-Man and QuantumaniaOMB Reviews states. “You’re still seeing a much, much smaller opening weekend in Ant-Man, as it is a smaller IP than those other two, but still seeing the same amount of drop off. And so what that’s saying is that the MCU stans are still out there and they are still supporting the MCU, but their numbers are growing a lot smaller and they are not going to see these movies on more than occasion.”
“And let’s just be fair, even if you genuinely liked a film like Doctor Strange 2 or Thor 4 or any of these other films you probably still would say, ‘Yeah, but you know what I don’t think I’d ever want to rewatch it again or I only saw it one time in theaters.’ Whereas, again, before if you were talking about the original Avengers film, that’s a film that people saw many, many times and the box office numbers and ticket sales clearly showed that amount,” he detailed.
“So 70% drop is as bad as it looks,” He asserted.

He predicts later that Quantumania: Ant-Man and The Wasp Actually, it will perform worse than Ant-Man & the Wasp Without even considering inflation.
OMB Reviews explains, “Ant-Man and the Wasp ended at $218 million domestic. So, though that is technically still on the table for Quantumania, it’s looking a lot less likely as things go on. It is definitely not going to get anywhere near the $409 million internationally that Ant-Man and the Wasp made though.”
“So that’s why we can think that this film will have no chance of catching up to Ant-Man and the Wasp,” He said.

He thinks it will be difficult to make Ant-Man 2 better. “That original Ant-Man $564 million. Take a look at the domestic versus international. Quantumania can catch up to and beat the original domestic, even after adjusting for inflation. However, Quantumania cannot catch up to the international number.
“And so based off of that alone, it’s looking like this is probably going to be, if I had to guess, below $550 million worldwide when all is said and done.”

Website to track box office movements Box Office Pro was originally forecast For its entire theatrical run, the film is expected to gross between $249-$347 million domestically.
OMB Reviews’ prediction based on the box office projections is likely to be wrong. It won’t reach the low end of the original Box Office Pro prediction.
