Yes, that's my point. If it followed Thor, i.e. 66% Saturday increase. Here's my prediction, assuming the $29mil holds. I hope my Saturday increase is low.$29,000,000$43,500,000 (50% increase)$30,500,000 (30% drop, in line with previous Mother Day decreases)nearly $103 million.
Saturday - There is a Game 7 in Los Angeles which will attract alot attention and a Game 1 2nd round which will garner less but could still depress L.A., Boston, Denver, and Philly markets. I'm rooting for a Thor like Saturday jump because it's the only avenue to $100million unless millions of sons everywhere take their moms to see TA on Sunday.
When you guys say a $100m 2nd wknd is now less likely, are you basing it off of historical early May daily performances or specific movies (SM1,Thor) which are the same thing in those cases since they came out in early May? How are you making that determination?
Avengers will likely have over $270-$275m going into Friday. Almost $400million in two weeks. Let me type that again because it is so hard to grasp. Almost $400million in two weeks.
If Avengers doesn't beat Avatar, Avatar's reign will last for the foreseeable future. I don't see Avatar 2/3 beating Avatar right now because the novelty of the Avatar world, 3D technology, etc isn't there for the sequels. Avengers 2/3 will lack the hype and buildup that we saw in IM, Hulk, IM2, Thor, and CA2. Sure they may do the same with IM3, Thor2, and CA2 but it will be more familiar. I hope I'm wrong. I love seeing records go down but I see Avatar's record holding through this decade if Avengers can't do it.
Not at all. If I had time I would tackle the Silmarillon. His universe is so rich and interesting. I wasnt bored at all reading the 4 Rings books. I have not read his other works set in the LOTR universe.
How do you ascertain that? Do you guys have Excel spreadsheets with macros comparing past movies with current ones? OrMaybe its as simple as taking sm3's dom/ow and extrapolating out for TA. Maybe its just as simple
