Well deserved for Black Panther.
I think it will likely finish around $1.4-1.5 billion in the Box Office. Additionally, I think it will pass Avengers 1 in the Domestic Box Office and becoming the highest grossing Superhero movie of all-time in the United States.

I think $1.4B is going to be impossible.  Right now, I think best case scenario in the US is it ending up 10% (it's currently at 9.2%) above Avengers at the DBO, that would be at $685.7M.  For it to reach that high WW, FBO would have to represent 51%.  Right now, FBO represents 44.1%.  Sure, China will help that rise, but it's not going to rise to those levels.

Well it's exceeding my predictions anyway, expected it to top out at 800-850m WW, lol.

I'm with you there.  That's exactly where I thought it would land.  But, it's become an event movie in the US.  It's also performing pretty well for a standalone Marvel installment at the FBO.  It's not going to pull off Iron Man 3 ($805.8M) or Captain America 3 ($745.2M) numbers in the foreign market, but it'll definitely pass Thor 3 ($540M.)
