The Conjuring 2 | June 10, 2016 | Let the RT Watch commence.
Lumos replied to CJohn's topic in Box Office Discussion
I think this could open to as high as 70M OW. The first film had a lot of goodwill behind it, expanded its audience after its theatrical release and with little competition out there it just seems like all the stars are aligned for a break out opening. I'm seeing 65/150 -
350m? 400m is starting to look like a real possibility at this point...especially if it can have a decent hold next week against Captain America.

Wow. BvS was down only 45% from its previous Thursday. Looks like a <50% weekend drop is possible....was really hoping for another 60% drop haha
-
Normally I don't root for a film to fail....but this film was so bad on so many levels that this 70% drop makes me absolutely elated. WB delivered crap and people are rejecting it! Good for the public. Do better next time WB! But it's probably too late....this film left a bad taste in my mouth and I have no interest in seeing Justice League.

Saw this film last night, and I'm pretty sure this is the worst superhero movie I have ever seen. I hope this film crashes and burns. Really rooting for a Deadpool>BvS DOM Total

1 BILLION domestically is still possible but it's going to be a long slow crawl to that number. The Hunger Games which was a fairly leggy film had a 4.38x from its fourth weekend going foreword. Giving the same multiplier to TFA and assuming a 49M fourth weekend it would hit 985M domestically. That's an awful lot of money! But would miss an absolutely historic milestone if it ended there. I'm sure Disney will find a way to get this film to one billion....one thing Star Wars has in its favour is theater counts. Should remain in 3000+ for the rest of January...
-
I really don't see how this could fail to hit 1b domestically. Even DH2 had a 3.86x from its third weekend going forward. Similar legs from this point on for TFA would get the film to 991m. Shouldn't be too difficult to push it past 1 billion. It's definitely not a lock at this point but i still think its VERY VERY likely....

Thanks for sharing this! It's so hard to find any data on Canadian box office anymore.... And, that's a phenomenal OW. SW will probably finish with around 60-70M...right around ROTK. No way it tops Avatars 96M in Canada... I had no idea the biggest OW in Quebec prior to this weekend was The Da Vinci Code?? WTF.
-
I said the same thing in 2007 when Spider-Man 3 made a mind boggling 151m. Then BAM! TDK came out out and topped it by 8m the following year. So it could happen. That's what makes the box office so much fun to follow haha
-
Interesting. So....JW still has the biggest Friday minus previews. As well as biggest Saturday. But SW takes the Sunday record. That likely bodes very well for Monday....
-
Congrats SW fans! That is a stunning Thursday preview number. I'm a little sad to see DH2 lose the record....but it was kind of expected. DH2 will always have the biggest midnights in my mind! #5extrahours
