    What? I don't think we're talking about exactly the same thing. I meant that MJ would be less frontloaded than those two and make up for lower preview numbers, not catch up numbers wise.

    Anyway if this opens to less than $125 million (which I seriously do not think it will) you can bet your sweet asses MJ2 will be in 3D.

    Well, the whole Potter series is a bit different. They range from 56 million tickets (SS) to 37 million tickets (DH1) and HBP is on the lower half of things. I think MJ will be more comparable to BD1 in terms of overall gross decreases but I included Potter because I don't think it is any coincidence that a "Part 1" is the lowest attended in the series.

    I'm talking about the overall weekend, not just the midnights. MJ will probably gain more ground over the weekend.

    http://boxofficemojo.com/franchises/chart/?id=harrypotter.htm DH1 saw a dip from HBP and is actually the lowest attended in the series. DH2 was the one that saw the big uptick.

    I knew this was going to be smaller than CF. It's the whole "Part 1" effect. It happened to Potter, Twilight, and now HG. It will also happen to Avengers when the time comes, even if the circumstances are a bit different. Still a great number, and should do at least $140-150 million OW.

    This will be the first Pixar film to be released outside of the summer and back into the November/Holiday season since The Incredibles in 2004.

    I'm still holding out for $160 million for Interstellar.

    I've heard of Growing Pains but not him.

    Who the fuck is Kirk Cameron

    For most of the posters here Avatar 2 will be considered a huge flop if it does anything less than a 50% increase on the original in all markets. Very few people here know how to manage expectations much less accepting reality after they aren't met.

    Just saw Interstellar again with my roommates and another friend. All three of them totally loved it. I was really worried about one in particular because he typically goes for more fast paced action films but he really enjoyed it and even wants to see it again. One of them even said I undersold it. I was a bit shocked to hear that.

    Didn't Carrey used to be firmly against doing sequels?

    Paramount really should have let WB do the marketing or something.

    Superman Returns is one of the most well-made love letters to a director/film series ever. It's a solid enough movie that is helped a lot by Spacey and Routh. That said it is really boring and a being such a homage to previous films it can't really get out of Donner's films shadow. I give it a C+ which is a bit higher than I'd give MoS. Both films have problems just on completely different ends of the spectrum.

    Fucking Blue Sky.

    Interstellar is doing great overseas. It should definitely hit $150 million domestic, how much higher it goes is the question. It'd be cool if it flirts with Contact's adjusted numbers. Geez, I went from hoping this movie would do $300+ million to hoping for around $170 million. I guess that's the business for you though.

    I think the Variety website timeline thing is pretty cool. I wish it had more though.

    I think you guys are trying to say "Skyfall villain was clearly a rip off of The Joker"

    They'll get the green light by next weekend.

    Is Dumb & Dumber To set in Thailand?

    There are really no good comps for Interstellar from 2008 and it was also the day OoS was released so things for its type of movie would probably be skewed anyway but the weekend could go something like this- Thurs - $3.2 (-5%) Fri - $8 (+150%) Sat - $12.2 (+53%) Sun - $7.2 (-41%) That would be -43.8% for a $27.4 million weekend. Not too bad but not that great either. It does have a shot at $30+ though.

    Is BH6 follows Madagascar 2- Thurs - $1.9 (+1.5%) Fri - $7.98 (+319.8%) Sat - $16.53 (+107.2%) Sun - $9.77 (-40.9%) $34.28 million there for a 39% drop. Seems like it could possibly get higher.
  24. Mango
    Actually I think I'm wrong. BH6 might have some difficulty making much more than $30 million over the weekend. I didn't realize it's weekdays crashed so hard after VD. Still I think it is good for at least $30.
  25. Mango
    Do they really expect BH6 to drop 47%? This second weekend of November has historically had great holds for animated films dating back to MI in 2001. If D&D gets first place it'll have to open with no less than like $37 million.
