For the dignity of humanity I hope it wouldn't have but who knows. -
Nebula was aight. Gamora was amazing. Zoe Saldana is a geek goddess at this point.
-
I think Guardians is my favorite movie of the year thus far. Marvel and Gunn really outdid themselves.
-
Interstellar is going to outgross Hobbit and BH6. I've explained why like a thousand times this week in the Interstellar thread so I'm not going into it here.
-
Probably at least $300-350 million.
-
No, next week is oldness.
-
I think they will be better than Cap 2's legs. I have a feeling it can definitely get at least close to a 3x multi.
-
While we all admire Guardians probably $90 million opening, which will break the biggest August OW record owned by Bourne, I think it is time to pay some respect to the movie that will still hold it adjusted for inflation- Seriously. RH2's $67.4 million opening adjusts to $97 million today. Without 3D or IMAX.
-
That would be a 10% drop from the highest possible Saturday, so highly unlikely.
-
BTW what is everyone expecting as far as a Sunday drop? August can be a mixed bag when it comes to drop consistency.
-
Had a feeling GOTG would be a big Saturday walk-up film. Thanks, Rth!
-
I hope Guardians makes it to $91.7 million just so we can all laugh at Sony.
-
I think, with the reception this seems to be getting so far, it could end up topping The Avenger's multiplier.
-
I think GOTG would be a risk with any other studio but lets remember that Disney is the company that can churn out stuff like John Carter and The Lone Ranger every year and not be hurt by it. Guardian's was never a sure fire hit, but that $170 million it was made for and the $100 million-ish or whatever it was marketed for is pocket change for Disney. If it were Marvel on their own, it would be a huge risk.

That's one thing I do really like about most modern comic book films. None of them seem to be straight up adaptations like the YA book adaptations. They take elements, characters, and pieces of normally different storylines and usually the end result is an original plot. Still not technically "original" but at least they aren't making it a straight carbon copy existing storylines.
-
It was still being snickered at by some a few days ago.
-
Well China made it clear they want our unwanted sequels.
-
It's something that definitely needs to change, too.
-
Yeah, I really hope I'm wrong too. EOT isn't actually original though. And yeah Lucy did well, but it had a pretty unfortunate release date coming one week in front of Guardians. Which, even though it isn't original, I am glad is doing well because it does look like a unique type of adaptation.
-
Maybe not yet, but at the rate we're going everything is going to be a sequel/remake/reboot/whatever in the near future.
-
Originality in Hollywood is as good as dead and I have just kind of accepted it is probably never coming back.
-
Yeah that comes in November.
-
Nolan is the only thing that can transcend time and space.
-
Better than 11%.
