Gitesh Pandya @GiteshPandya May 8 Rarely does a film have an even 50/50 split of its global gross from domestic & intl. But #SplitMovie has done it - $137M intl + $138M dom. What a twist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Phantom Menace made more than that on its first non-holiday Monday almost 20 years ago with no IMAX, no 3D, not 4,000 theaters, and much lower ticket prices. Look at the list and how the hell does even LEGO Batman beat Guardians 2's Monday? Great Monday? LOL wow pass the weed. That number sucks!! The Phantom Menace was a massive deal back then, which adjusted for inflation goes up almost to $800m...next time compare any movie with Force Awakens to prove your point Edited May 10, 2017 by XO21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing it to the first Star Wars film in 16 years is pretty ridiculous as well considering the mass hype that TPM had. Looking at 2017 movies, so far GotG2 has the 2nd highest grossing first Monday behind Beauty and the Beast, which opened $30m higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2k Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 (edited) Looking at the 1st Monday (or Tue or Wed or Thu for that matter) to judge legs is as good as looking at tea leaves. No, tea leaves are more accurate. At least wait for the 2nd weekend. Edited May 10, 2017 by a2knet 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not surprised, many people predict the legs and the entire run based on the thursday previews, hahah 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think even the 2nd weekend may not tell much considering these days all CBM sequels will fall bigger due to Thu previews and DCU/MCU fan-base front-loading and your usual sequelitis.

Best example of this is suicide squad. Had better legs than what looked on second weekend. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoilingHotCoffee Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 For a movie this large, I'm surprised we still don't have any Tuesday numbers at this time, or at least a rough estimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Suicide Squad also had far less cmpetition.Suicide Squad basically had the entire August on its own until Don't Breath came out...and even then there was not a big audience overlap between the two movies.May has some releases that can take some of the audience from Guardiands and then another comic book movie (Wonder Woman) being released on June 2.From then on,all the other Summer blockbusters will heavily cut into its audience preventing it from having good late legs....which again didn't happen with SS.

Let's not forget SUicide Squad didn't have a potential to face a 100 ow opener in its 3rd and 4th weekends. I think that's something to take into consideration going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
