I bet you didn’t know that Summer starts in April. Well, at least it does for the movie season. Marvel studios moved Avengers: Infinity War up into April and that forced us all to get ready a little earlier than we had planned. For the second year in a row my friend Conrado and I have gotten together to share our predictions for this year’s Summer box office. You can listen to the podcast above or on itunes/youtube.
I must admit my list is kind of bland this year. Last year I had a few more odd ball/risky picks but nothing stood out to me as a real dark horse or wild card pick. There are a few that could possibly make it like Mamma Mia 2, Eighth Grade, Christopher Robin, Teen Titans Go or Uncle Drew but I don’t see them as big challenges. We will see.
My Top 10 Summer 2018 Box Office Predictions
- Avengers: Infinity War
- Incredibles 2
- Jurassic World 2: Fallen Kingdom
- Solo
- Deadpool 2
- Ant-Man and the wasp
- Mission Impossible: Fall Out
- Hotel Transylvania 3
- Skyscraper
- Oceans 8
You’ll have to listen to the podcast to learn why we picked what we picked and how our lists compare We would love your feedback. Thanks!
Oh, I think you REALLY underestimate Mama Mia 2

Place 3. It appeals to a very strong demographic after all. Honestly, if the incredibles wasn’t an animated movie AND the sequel to one of Pixar most popular movies, I would even bet on place 2.

nice picks, however much i love and want Deadpool 2 do well, i think it will struggle. the outside shot i would pick is Hereditary because its another horror with a lot of buzz around it and Ocean’s 8 is something no one really wants to see

Interesting. Maybe I’m letting my excitement for Oceans 8 cloud my judgement. The trailers have been great, cast is great and I’m really looking forward to it

I think my disinterest in Ocean’s 8, is that i would be happy to have an original women cast heist movie, but just remake/sequel didn’t work with ghostbusters just not into the idea, i was expecting a lot more movies this summer, but it seems quiet compared to last year.

Yeah it being a spinoff doesn’t bother me but we’ll have to see what the general public think. Ghostbusters was fine in my opinion but Oceans 8 looks great

I’m a believer that Avengers will pass the $2 billion worldwide grossing mark!
