[Assassin's Creed | 12/21/2016 | Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard | Final Trailer on Page 71]

The release date is horrible. I can't see it not being sandwiched between Avatar 2, Justice League, Star Wars VII, or Finding Dory.

[Phase 3 (CA3 - 5/6/2016) Marvel Dates 5 Mystery Movies]

I'm betting phase 3 will be Ant-Man, Thor 3, Doctor Strange, Cap 3, Inhumans, Avengers 3.

[Big Hero 6 | November 7, 2014 | Now available on home video]

uh oh.Marvel and Pixar have a better track record recently than Disney (not including POTC).

Would be awesome to see a Marvel/Pixar movie but that probably won't happen anytime soon since Pixar wants to keep doing its own stuff.That said, this will probably be the first Disney Animation movie I watch in theaters. That teaser looks awesome.

Disney Animation? What were their last few movies? Tangled, Wreck-It Ralph, Bolt? I'm probably forgetting a few. That's a pretty reasonable group of movies

And Winnie the Poo. And yeah, I really liked Tangled and Wreck It Ralph.

[Tuesday Numbers: Iron Man 3 - (Actual: $11.287m)]

So I'm thinking this should be around $290m by Sunday?

[Tuesday Numbers: Iron Man 3 - (Actual: $11.287m)]

This is a good hold from Monday. I was expecting it to drop to $9m. This somewhat makes up for the lower than expected Monday.

[Monday #s IM3 11.26]

No.

In terms of the whole package of percentage drops, numbers put up in the OW, time of release, and, you know, being a Marvel movie, SM3 definitely is the best comparison right now, personal feelings aside. I want IM3 to be successful more than anyone, but I'm not going to let that stop me from looking at this objectively. Until we see how it performs the upcoming weekend, SM3 is the best comparison. Like I said in my first post though, in the long term that's likely a worst case scenario.

[Monday #s IM3 11.26]

That said, its performance so far is also very similar to the first Iron Man in terms of percentages. But obviously, given the numbers its putting up, SM3 for now is the best comparison.

[Monday #s IM3 11.26]

This drop is similar to SM3 which had a multiplier of 2.23. If we apply that to IM3 then it comes out with a $388.3m total. That's probably worst case scenario though.

[Man of Steel thread OS]

$450m

[Weekend Discussion: IM3 @ 175.3m wknd est]

I find the animation comparisons some of you made to the Saturday jump interesting. Maybe this can be taken as evidence that the Marvel brand has become like Pixar?

[China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30]

You know it's an embarrassment of riches when missing the single day record by a couple million is a disappointment.

[China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30]

So that's a $10m OD in USD?

[China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30]

What did Avengers make OD?

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

hmmm with May day holidays it should get around 100 million from the weekdays and 100 million from the next weekend and that is including the new openings from China Russia and Germany.

 

 

I think it will be well above 400 million overseas by next Sunday sounds insane but likely?

Yeah it should be over $400m OS next Sunday and near $600m WW.

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

$180m DOM OW.

[Thor 2 OS thread]

$450m

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

I think some of you are underestimating Avengers 2 (again lol) $700m+ DOM and $1.4b OS.

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

This is crazy. I'm one of those who thought there WOULD be an Avengers effect, but it would "only" be enough to get the film to $800m WW. But this is literally the best case scenario the film could have performed. It's like the Avengers last year, the film has just went above and beyond realistic expectations and into the realm of fantasy land. Given how these films keep defying expectation, I'm going to go ahead and say this will probably his $750m OS and might even go to $800m.

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

What estimate? It's made 36.5M so far and Friday-Sunday still to go. It should be between 180-200M by Sunday.

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

Why is that $110m estimtate so low?

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

Many of us has hired monkeys to do typing for us..My monkeys are working 10 threads at the time

Where can I get one of these worker monkeys? 

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

He's one of the best here..But still

He coaxed my original prediction out of me. My current is $700m. And damn, this board moves fast. 

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

So you went from 700 mill to 470-550 just because Fake said a few words :PDude's got the power!!!!!!

His influence is disturbing. 

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

Lets hope it comes true then..Did Germany open this week?

No, it opens May 1st over there.

[Iron Man 3 OS thread ($803,300,000)]

I agree with you here. My point is: it is one thing to predict 600m and another to say 600m was a lock (which implies that there was 'no possible scenario' where the mark could be missed).

Oh okay. Yeah I agree with you then. I was on the fence about  it hitting $600m myself, I figured around $550m or even on the high end of $470m would have been good.
