    Lol @ the overreactions on this forum. One good number and $3B talks start and onr not-so-good number and it's gonaa miss Avatar! :D

     

    The question isn't whether it is gonna surpass Avatar, but when. Looking at the current trend, the prediction of overtaking Avatar by Memorial weekend is far too optimistic, and the earliest it could get there seems to be 1st weekend of June. It may take another couple of weeks to get there if drops are not as good as hoped, but it will get there for sure.

    Took a bit longer than expected, but Disney was never gonna let it fall short after coming so close....

     

    WHAT AN ACHIEVEMENT!! Totally deserved!

     

    And the trend of a new worldwide champion every decade continues.

    yes. I am sure by hook or crook Disney will report that Endgame has beaten Avatar. Its inevitable. Suddenly you will see better ER or holds which are crazy good. This will include domestic as well.

    Yes... but I expected the fudge to start from this weekend, however Disney "allowed" Endgame to drop over 50% both domestically and overseas.

     

    Another 171M is required to reach Avatar. China will add 4M or so before its runs ends, so that leaves 167M. DOM and OS-C weekends were 30M and 40M respectively. Based on the current trends, I'd expect further 70M from DOM and 80M from OS-C. So Disney needs to fudge around 20M or so.

     

    Endgame will be at 2643-2645M before weekend begins, 145M away from its target. So the next WW weekend must be over 40M to have a shot at Avatar.

  3. Endgame will be at 2540M before the start of next weekend (Weekdays - 19M domestic, 6M China, 29M OS-C). So that leaves around 250M to beat Avatar. China should add another 15M after next Thursday, so WW-C needs to do further 235M.

     

    Lets' have a comparison b/w IW and EG from 3rd weekend onwards:

     

      IW DOM IW OS-C EG DOM EG OS-C
    3rd weekend 62M 81M 63M 84M
    weekdays 18.3M 28M 19M 29M
    4th weekend 29.5M 32M    
    further gross 83M 75M    
    Multi frm 4th wknd 3.82x 3.34x    

     

    IW had 3.56x multiplier from its WW-C weekend. EG probably won't get it that high, but 3.2x seems probable. Which means that if it can get 75M WW-C next weekend, it will gross further 165M.

     

    Current projections:

     

      EG DOM EG OS-C China Worldwide
    Gross b/f 4th wknd 742M 1181.5M 616.5M 2540M
    4th weekend 33M (-47.5%) 42M (-50%) 7M (-60%) 82M
    further gross 80M (3.4X) 86M (3.05X) 7M* 173M
    Multi frm 4th wknd 855M 1310M 630M 2795M

     

    *without extension. If China gets extension, it will add further ~5M.

     

    Thus, it is going to be very very close, but I am still favoring EG to surpass Avatar.

  4. This Friday number is the key. Whatever amount it grosses on Friday, it will do 12x of that during the rest of the run. For example, if it does 40M today, it will gross 480M or so including Friday (4x IM for 160M Fri-Sun and 3x multiplier from Fri-Sun). EG is 2328.2M as of Thursday. Another 480M will take its gross past 2.8B.

     

    However, if it comes 38M or lower, I would concede that it might miss Avatar.

    $35mn Approx Overseas Monday. Cume $1609mn Approx.

    By Thursday I expect $1675mn Approx.

    If this is your guesstimate, you need to specify it as such. Otherwise it gives false impression that it is official number and hence creates confusion.

     

    BTW, 'officially', weekend actuals will be reported today. Monday numbers will be reported tomorrow.

  7. OS - CH + RUS

     

    Infinity War:

     

    WKND1: 382.8M

    WKND2: 145.6M / 696.4M cume

    TOTAL: 960M 

     

    Endgame:

     

    WKND1: 536M

    WKND2: 185M / 960.6M

     

    OW for EG was around 40% higher compared to IW, but 2nd weekend is only 27% higher. Alternatively, weekend drop was 65.5% for EG as compared to 62% for IW.

     

    IW got a 2.81x multiplier from its 2nd weekend. Given that EG seems more frontloaded and also that EG faces major competition in its 3rd week as compared to 4th week for IW, I would say a multiplier of 2.6-2.7x from 2nd weekend is more likely. This translates into a further gross of 300-310M taking the total to 1.26-1.27B. 

     

    As China and Russia will finish with 625M and 45M respectively, the OS final total seems to be headed for 1.93-1.94B.

     

    (All this is with the current estimates; if the actuals go up by 3-4m, then the final projected totals will also go up by 10m.)

     

    Avatar is going down WW, but I'm afraid 3B is no longer possible.

    I was talking about Avatar OS. Avatar WW is toast in 2-3 weeks or so.

    Aah. I see. For getting to Avatar OS, OS-Ch needs to get 1.4B minimum (as China will wrap with 625M or so).... After this weekend OS-C will be at 1B with a 200M Fri-Sun, so the requirement would be 3x multiplier. For comparison, IW OS-C did a further 280M after 148M Fri-Sun (2.89x).

    I think Endgame legs will stabilize after initial frontloading bcos its OW was ridiculous. But once it hit sane levels it will have a good run. so late run domestic/OS should be good. So it could take until well into summer for us to know if some benchmarks(TFA Dom or 1.0A) will be breached.

    TFA DOM looks pretty difficult as of now. EG Fri was 29.2% higher than IW, and if it can maintain the same lead throughout the rest if its run (which I doubt), it will finish with 914M. 900M is a more realistic target.

     

    Avatar WW is going down for sure, unless it crashes spectacularly.

     

    Next weekend drop is the key.

  10. Projecting further run:

     

    WKND/WEEK - DOM - CHN - OS-C = WW

     

    Weekend 1: 357 - 330.5 - 536 - 1223.5

     

    Weekday 1: 115 - 190 - 205

     

    Weekend 2: 153 - 80 - 235 = 468

    (WW Cume: 625+600+975 = 2200)

     

    Weekday 2: 40 - 25 - 85

     

    Weekend 3: 70 - 20 - 90 = 180

    (WW Cume: 735+645+1150 = 2530)

     

    Weekday 3:  20 - 10 - 30

     

    Weekend 4: 40 - 10 - 45 = 95

    (WW Cume: 795+665+1225 = 2685)

     

    Rest of run: 105 - 10 - 100 = 215

     

    WW Final: 900+675+1325 = 2900
