It is not looking good for Warner Bros.’ “Joker: Folie a Deux,” which is seeing its box office estimates slide further as poor reviews from opening night audiences, including the lowest ever CinemaScore grade for a comic book film.

Currently, industry estimates have the film earning a $47 million opening weekend — roughly half of the $96 million of the first “Joker” — as opening night buzz on social media and in audience polling has been so abysmal that it might lead to lower walk-up ticket sales than what the current projections are expecting, sending the final weekend total even lower.
