I hope I'm wrong, but it seems to me Deadpool 2 is going to be lost in between Avengers and Solo and will be one of those films that is a bog box office disappointment. What do you think?

Well, if Deadpool 2 is a flop, it won’t be for lack of trying! They’ve been putting out a fair few of these promos!

Turns out it did very well. I'm glad.

I have mixed feelings about the failure of "Solo". This is a link to a good article from Forbes.

What is everyone's opinion?

Well, I believe standard Hollywood maths is that a film has to make double its budget before it goes into 'profit' - and when you hear rumours that (due to a 70% reshoot) Solo cost around $250 mn, the $400 mn take looks a little less impressive.

My opinion would be I think Disney panicked a little bit on this one. Obi Wan with Ewan MacGregor would've done much better than Solo I think. I agree too slow down a little and make us all anticipate just a little bit.
