Both will drop quick though. Cinemascores were in the C range (Rough Night C+, 47 Meters Down C).

And I'm surprised by 47 Meters Down's result too. Maybe releasing movies on DVD first is a good concept after all.

So which is the "bigger" surprise of the summer? Wonder Woman or 47 meters down?

For me it's All Eyez. Thought it was one of those movies that tried to replicate success of a new trend while not understanding why it did well. R-rated superhero flicks, gritty films, comic book looking movies (like The Spirit), found footage, music biopics early this century, etc.

Turns out the problem is I'm a white guy.

Surely the fact that Wonder Woman is almost going to match Guardians 2, and certainly beat Batman Vs Superman, is a bigger surprise. All Eyez shouldn't be a huge surprise considering Tupac is more widely popular than NWA
