YES

Will the upcoming movie The Marvels, due to be released on November 10, 2023, earn less than $220m in North American box office through Dec 31, 2023? Box office reporting will be used on January 1st to determine the winner.

"Flop" is a matter of opinion obv, but the budget is reported to be $220m, so earning less than its budget would be quite bad. So we'll go with that!

Less than $220m at the NA box office = YES, its a flop

More than $220m at the NA box office = NO, not a flop

predictedYES

Ending this now. Will not reach $90m. Megabomb.

predictedYES

Will probably mercy-rule this for Yes in a couple of weeks so ppl don't have mana sitting around dong nothing. This won't even get remotely close to $220m.

Bombs away

Subjectively based on the synopsis/concept and mainly the past the characters' past appearances, YES it will be a flop.

Re: ratings...

Captain Marvel... (6.8)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4154664/

Saw it, and would rate it lower

Ms. Marvel (6.3)

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10857164/

Again, saw the series and would rate it lower.

I don't think this will be a situation where you add two mediocre ingredients and something better pops out.

The previous box office for Captial Marvels was overall $423M, and it reached $286M by the second week after release. Even though overall movie sales shrank a lot after the pandemic, there are still 7 movies that achieved $220M at their box office, including 2 Marvel movies, the sequel of Spiderman and Guardians of the Galaxy. Followed by the sequel of Antman as number 6 whose box office was $214M. In my opinion, The Marvels is likely to make it to the targeted box office ($220M) but will not make a significant performance at the box office.
