    It could also point to how much the Ledger effect had on TDKs OW.
  2. Orestes
    It's "only" doing 80-85 mil because its in 2D. I think people were underrating how much 3D was going to be necessary to do Avengersesque (or especially above) numbers.
  3. Orestes
    I agree. I don't think the shooting is having as much of an affect as some are trying to claim. I think if it does end up having an appreciable affect on the OW, it wont truly be felt till Saturday and Sunday when families normally go to the theater.

    Outside of BKB?
  5. Orestes
    No, a december movie wont have a ginormous OW, at least not by summer standards. It could end up with the record for its time of year, though.
  6. Orestes
    Think TA has highest OW attendance by a very thin margin, with TDK and SM1 behind by a nose.
  7. Orestes
    This is my feeling as well. Midnights wouldve needed to be much closer to Potter for 200m, nevermind over The Avengers, and that didnt happen.
  8. Orestes
    To be fair, some folks were holding iJacks absurd predictions for TASM up as well. If those can be held up, so can these.
  9. Orestes
    Excelftw or something like that? Think there were a couple others on WorldofKJ. They may have gone even higher. I know I know, thats like taking iJack's obviously loony predictions for TASM seriously, but it was still out there.
  10. Orestes
    Well, there were some loons predicting 210-230, but most reasonable folks shouldnt find the numbers anything but good. Its like not only is this movie suffering a little critically from following up TDK, but it seems to be suffering in its Box Office expectations from following up The Avengers as well.
  11. Orestes
    Im not disappointed, either. I predicted a 190OW. Might not hit that, but it'll still do really well. I mean, if Avengers hadnt come out, this would be the new OW record holder. Don't see what the issue is.
  12. Orestes
    How big is the family crowd on a friday though? Even with schools out, mom and pop are still at work. If it does affect family audiences (assuming TDKR is much of a family movie anyway) that wouldnt show till Saturday and Sunday matinees.
  13. Orestes
    I think if it is having an effect, its not much of one. It seems more likely that folks here were just over predicting what this would do.
  14. Orestes
    Well, if you were closer to the 230m OW side of things than the 170, its probably a disappointment.
  15. Orestes
    I kind of agree, except I would rank Hathaway over Caine. Hardy wasn't bad, aside from being hard to understand a few times, but I think he had the biggest shoes to fill being the follow up villain to Joker, and I dont think anybody wouldve been up to the task.
  16. Orestes
    These seem like pretty good numbers. Should be interesting to see how it holds up when actuals come in.As for the movie itself, I thought it was pretty good. Had trouble understanding Bane a few times, but all in all a good close to the trilogy. It was certainly better than any 3rd movie in a superhero series so far, which may not be saying a whole lot considering how awful most of those 3rd movies are, but it still needs to be said.
  17. Orestes
    I doubt it. Not in July. No school in session to keep demand from being burned off during Friday matinees.
  18. Orestes
    Im still sticking with 190.
  19. Orestes
    Apparently it features a theater shooting.
  20. Orestes
    You must be some kind of sorcerer.
  21. Orestes
    That is kind of odd, especially considering its usually white dudes who carry out these kinds of mass shootings.
  22. Orestes
    Ugh, its like something out of Final Destination.
  23. Orestes
    I wouldnt say TDK had a mediocre third act, it was actually pretty good aside from the bit with the ferries. I think it had the best 3rd act of a SH movie ever until The Avengers came out.
  24. Orestes
    Most people who've seen it twice said it got better the 2nd time.
  25. Orestes
    Think the only ones predicting that were the handful of folks who had TDKR doing 210+, but that was unrealistic.
