He actually opened 2 flicks this weekend.Avengers - $207.4 million #1Meeting Evil - $128.00 #essentially last
-
We are witness to history!
-
$600million is guaranteed. I never thought I would say that after a first weekend. The only question is whether $700m is in play. It would need a Spider-Man level like multiplier. It's possible but I'm going to go conservative and predict $633m
-
I feel the same way. This is on par with Avatar and Titanic.I just checked Mojo... HISTORY right in front our eyes.Can't believe it.It's almost un-natural.So much money put in ONE movie in 72 hours.

John Carter is playing with Avengers on a double billing in specific theaters (numbers unknown) across the country.Anybody else surprised by how much John Carter improved this weekend?
-
Justice League or Batman/Superman may actually happen within the next several years.This is just ridiculous. $207 million? Insanity. I knew this would be huge but I couldn't fathom this. I can't really see TDKR beating this. Looks like team-ups may be the future of superhero movies.So do we think it actually had higher attendance than TDK or no?

Wow, just wow!!!!!
I hereby declare this to be the best boxoffice weekend ever!!!
-
Yes. Best Weekend Ever.Yep. Great fun. Congrats to TA on the OW record and 200M+.
-
Indeed. I'm happy to see that again for once. 2012 owns 2011 (DH2). Heck, let's beat out 2008 (TDK) and *gasp* dare I say it...2009 (Avatar), 1977 (guess which movie), 1939 (?). ha ha.Happy to see after the DH2 fiasco last year where it was 5th or 6th in admissions and broke the record solely because of 3D and inflation. It's good to see the admissions record is actually the dollar record again.

Meaning the exhibitors will find a way out of the contract or that TA won't be affected by the IMAX loss?And I say that isn't how it wil go down and people keep understimating what The Avengers can do.
-
Without IMAX and IMAX 3D premiums, this Dark Shadows deal will definitely hurt TA's 2nd weekend.I've read this: "Warner Bros. has a deal with IMAX for 20 movies this year, Dark Shadows being one of them. So, Avengers will not have IMAX for this weekend, but it could have it the week after. The same thing happened with The Hunger Games when Wrath of the Titans came out. It had it the first week, lost it the second and then got it back on its 3rd or 4th week."
Well, I can see this working in favor of The Avengers. It could make people boycott Dark Shadows and wait for The Avengers come back to the IMAX screenings the week after.
-
That. Is. Amazing.Possibly 3 days over 60M. Beyond belief.
-
Heck, Avatar's 3rd weekend OW is in jeopardy.206 mill and a 17% drop is insane. That is a better Sunday hold than Spiderman 3. Is 100 mill really possible next weekend?
-
YEah I really don't understand this.
Good question. Lost World opened on Friday vice Wednesday, with more theaters, and had a higher per theater average as well. I just had a conversation with someone about Lost World's opening weekend and how floored I was by it. The OW held for 4.5 years, broken by Harry Potter. The $26mil it made that Sunday was absolutely amazing and held for 5 years. That Sunday number is impressive by 2012 standards.I'm still trying to understand how "TPM" didn't break "The Lost World" OW record? The Anticipation is still not like anything I've seen in my lifetime for a movie. I heard Lucas made a bet with Steven it would and lost.
-
An Iron Man 2 multiplier would put it at $487 million. :unsure:A Dark Knight multiplier would place it at $673 million.
-
I think TA will do $90m+ in its 2nd weekend. Even my Mom wants to see it again.Is $100m 2nd OW possible. Yes!

Someone mentioned the Northern Mariana Islands the other day. Hilarious. I'm rooting for Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, America Samoa, etc to keep us over $200million for the Actuals! :)I think Iraq and Afghanistan boxoffice totals should count toward Domestic as well. *ducks for cover*Not sure if you are kidding, but PR here is a joke that dates back to Transformers 2. Check this out:* Note: Revenge of the Fallen's weekend gross fell $3 million short of Paramount's Sunday estimate, which would have put the five-day opening at $198.2 million. Though shy of $200 million, it would have still ranked second among the all time five-day starts. However, Paramount revised its grosses from Wednesday and Thursday upward, and that's what pushed the total past $200 million. Wednesday went from $60.6 million to $62.0 million, and Thursday went from $28.6 million to $29.1 million. Paramount reported that the differences came from unreported showings from the movie's midnight openings on Wednesday night, which went from the previously reported $16 million at around 3,000 theaters to $16.8 million at close to 3,300 theaters, as well as late reports from institutional IMAX locations and theaters in Puerto Rico and some Caribbean islands (which the studio counts in its domestic numbers), which accounted for $1.1 million of the difference.http://boxofficemojo...?id=2601&p=.htm

Imagine the meltdown and anger on this board if the actuals come under $200 million.

I too thought the $60m was low. Why wouldn't TA do as well as Spiderman 3 (14-15% Sat drop, 22% Sun drop).
$200m OW is still in play folks.

This will blow the Saturday record way out of the water.
