But you are saying it's going to make more than Avengers did on it's second weekend? There's absolutely no chance of that.
No, he's saying it'll do more than Avatar did on Avatar's 2nd weekend.

Hope this helps to lower the overpredictions SW8 OW is already having.
It won't.

Possibly a dumb question, but does anyone know how the money from the Avengers/Age of Ultron double features gets divvied up? Is it like the drive-in double features, where they both get the money added to their totals, is it split, or does it all go to Ultron?

If they're off by 10m for Sunday then BOM really needs to stop estimating Sundays on Sundays. That's a ridiculous number to be off by.
Really doubt they're off by that much.
-
When do we get actuals?
7 or so hours from now at the earliest I would imagine.

Until we hear otherwise, I'm just going to stick with with 187 number .
-
An increase of 5-6m would be great, but 10m? Has a Sunday ever been so underestimated?
Dunno. Then again, we haven't had a Saturday quite like this, either.
-
Nope. TDKR is first. I did the Math.

Is that even possible?
Probably not unless there's some new holiday tomorrow. Either way, waiting for this Sunday's numbers is a bit more interesting than usual.

My point is that it can't be doing Shockingly bad if it's not doing bad at all. You brought up it is doing bad compared to international markets and then you asked for an example when I pointed out almost every film does.
I have a feeling that the Marvel fatigue club is going to use Ant-Man as a poster child. But who knows maybe it'll surprise.
I'm not even sure what numbers would constitute good/bad/whatever for Ant-Man. Right now, I'm thinking it'll be a win if it just manages to do the 2x its budget thing.

Star Wars grossed 220mil on its initial release.
Empire grossed 209mil on its initial release.
Dat fatigue indeed.
Nope.
Where ya seeing that? Mojo has 307 mil for Star Wars initial release and 209 for Empires.

Early reminder: This thread needs to be nominated for "Thread of the year" for the boffies. I don't think there will be a more roller-coaster ride of a thread this year.
The Episode VII thread might have a chance.

AoU not taking the OD record prevented #FiveExtraHours from really taking off and becoming the next great box office meme.
AoU can't do anything right :/.
-
Raiders of the Lost Ark: $627,181,700
Temple of Doom: 434,686,500
30.7% drop.
It would be more if I counted Raider's rereleases.
-
The Avengers has a good chance at breaking this record, doesn't it? I don't see SW7 or anything in the next year and a half opening above $200 million...
Probably won't happen till Episode VIII.
This could be a Shrek or Pirates-esque slide for Ultron from TA. Show me another franchise film that dropped 25% from its previous film, eh?
Star Wars: Domestic Total Adj. Gross: $1,159,000,200
The Empire Strikes Back: Domestic Total Adj. Gross: $640,361,400
Dat franchise fatigue.

Worst use of shaky cam ever
Yeah, that's bad. If the Bourne movies hadn't done it, that movie would've made me hate shaky cam. If, you know, i actually saw the movie.
-
Didn't the 1B grossing Hobbit get one, and the 2.9B grossing Hobbit trilogy got one as a whole. And the 650M grossing Interstellar as well.
We are quick to overreact.
Well, the first hobbit one was made by someone who isn't all there. Don't know about the others.
The sequels are great too. Shame the cameramen were having seizures filming those movies.
Yes. The Bourne movies single handedly made me sick of shaky cam.

Furious 7 did awesome! But I guess that doesn't count?
Not summer.
-
If that fight affected AoU ow performance, then we deserve a sunday and monday record.
No to both. And Spider-Man 2 was in summer.
-
TDK and TDKR didn't have holidays and were under 10.5%
No school on Mondays during Summer.

There's a drive-in near me. I haven't been since i was a kid, though.

So...what is a mewling quim?

Fair enough but I didn't realize this was always 100% the #s, in fact it never is on a weekend like this lol
That was before the dark times, before the classic conversation thread.
-
That wasn't my point, it's easily argued that the peak has already happened in MCU. Thus fatigue isn't far behind. Ant Man will be a great test for the Marvel brand & that theory.
Agreed. If Ant-Man can't get a 100m OD, then clearly Marvel's time is over.

Do we know what the 3D share was for Ultron?
