I completely agree 80m is lowballing. Looking at how well the Super Mario movie did, I could see Barbie opening a lot higher. Oppenheimer looks fantastic for sure, but I think most audiences aren’t going out for a 3 hour historical biopic, even if it Christopher Nolan. Every other movie is bombing right now. The schedule looks like these 2 are the only thing worth a damn for 2 solid weeks until TMNT August 2. Everything is working in Barbies favor to be a mega hit, now it just has to be good.
