  1. Thor missing $300 mil would be a day of reckoning for Feige and co. I now want this to happen. It would take a worse multi than MoM but that doesn’t seem impossible right now.
  2. Dumbass teen me picked the username 15 years ago, but thanks for the cute jab. One individual’s abuse is another’s internet banter. I guess I am comfortable enough not taking anything on the internet seriously that I don’t see any of his statements as a problem, but given the safe space ideology that is employed here, I see why others wouldn’t. I frankly hate that this is the case because I don’t think that doesn’t anyone any favors in preparing them for the real world, but my opinion isn’t shared by many, clearly. Thanks for reminding me why I lurk and why I hate social internet platforms with a passion. Back to my hiding hole I go.
  3. I’m sorry, but I saw Empire’s baseball bat comment and I can’t believe that some of y’all think that’s an instaban worthy post. He’s clearly exaggerating. It’s like telling someone to pound sand, and the way he worded it makes it clear as day that he’s not being serious. He’s not “advocating for violence,” give me a fucking break.
  4. He’s not entirely wrong though. And for reference, I’m 31. Square in the middle of one of the demographics he roasted. I miss the Wild West days of BOM.
  5. So what you’re saying is it’s likely that the second weekend will be no less than opening day? Also, if 370 holds, and I think that’s not happening, but if it does, I’m going bold and saying second weekend Endgame > Black Panther OW.
  6. I have been following box office for almost 15 years now. I've seen some crazy stuff. But NOTHING even remotely compares to just how absolutely and unquestionably insane these numbers are. I didn't dream of this happening for at least another 10 to 20 years. What a time to be a box office fan. Also, if Deadline's 157 is in the ballpark, I guarantee it's announced as $160 million in the morning. If there's any movie to somehow make $100 million on a true Friday, this is it. 160 (60 previews) 105 95 OW: 360 Dom: 1.015 billion (yes, it's an insane number, but I think it's happening finally. 360 is too big for me to miss it.) WW: 3.015 billion
  7. In 2015, an original Pixar (The Good Dinosaur) film sacrificed itself for Star Wars (Episode VIII). In 2018, an original Star Wars (Solo) film returns the favor for Pixar (Incredibles 2).
  8. Slightly off topic, but is anyone having an issue with the BOT page causing insane CPU usage? I'm on macOS High Sierra and as of a couple of days ago, the BOT forums suddenly have started causing my computer to use 100% of the CPU.
  9. Do not doubt the power of the Asgardian, yea, for his numbers are just and his sources are sound. The Empire shall also continue its reign.
  10. Holy shit, was it really a decade ago that 300 came out? That's the first movie I really followed box office for. Can't believe it's been a whole decade.
  11. Even Nolan? (If you were to average it out per movie?) I would expect Nolan and Cameron to compete at per movie levels, but very true that Spielberg's vision and success have continued over decades .
  12. So any opening over $95m would automatically make it the biggest Marvel film (on OW at least) to not include Iron Man, correct?
  13. The first movie I really remember predicting on a box office website was 300. That was nearly 10 years ago. My, how time flies.
  14. Theatre counts: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/counts/chart/?yr=2016&wk=41&p=.htm And the house-clearing begins.
  15. Not sure Sausage can pull $5m after a $1m weekend this weekend. I mean if Sony wants to fudge it, it'll get there, but I'm not seeing $100m unless it gets some delicious chocolate fudge.
