Why does no one contemplate that TWOW could come close to Avatar's $50M 4th weekend.
What do you mean, no one? I could name a few.
Welcome, btw.
It is a somewhat different calendar setup than during the original's run, which makes the comparison a little bit more tricky. For instance, A1 had more people off work and school in the first week because it opened closer to Christmas.
A2 so far is having great legs for a huge blockbuster, no doubt, but it is not having A1 legs. Both had similar 3rd weekends despite A2 opening much higher. It is that bigger opening which A2 has been benefiting from the first two weeks. However, A1 has pretty much caught up with it now (day-to-day) and i might be wrong but i highly doubt A2 will be able to keep pace.

I felt the same way after my first screening at around an 8, but now I'm an 8.5-9. The characters are so, so charming and the emotions are so high on a second viewing. Really looking forward to seeing what you think upon rewatch!
It gets better on 2nd viewing.

...excuse me?
No excuses.
For me superstar is the upper echelon of stardom, like Tom Cruise. I don't consider him being in the same league. But maybe that's a regional thing, me being from Europe.

Plus superhero fatigue plus The Rock lost his super-star status after consistently making too much garbage.
Rock was never a superstar.

Avatar 1 had amazing WED drops. I think tomorrow will be more telling...
Hopefully, less than -30%.

OS Tuesday 28m ,insane
I knew Monday was somewhat helped by China's Holiday, still i had hoped for a 30+ tuesday but maybe that was unrealistic. Ultimatey, it was just an arbitrary threshold.

I am of the mindset step by step. First Last Jedi then JW and so on.
Ditto. I might also be a little superstitious in this regard. Don't want to jinx it.

$1.88M
That should be SAT-SUN, because in Japan weekends are 2-day.

Whatever happens, it surely is a fun ride. In terms of forum engagement, this is defintely an event.
And i love the fact that it still has a shot at the domestic yearly crown, albeit a small one, imho.

I have a feeling Sunday will be much stronger than shown in the estimate. And while it's Tuesday afternoon, I don't think I've seen the Sunday estimate change since Monday AM or Sunday late PM.
Sunday estimates went up by a few millions yesterday and the same happend today with monday estimates. Early projections that are basically guesswork were updated based on actual data.

When can we expect actuals?
I'm really curious about Sunday & Monday. My gut's telling me 3-day is going to get really close to 70M on actuals.
That would be +3m from estimates, not gonna happen. Estimates will be pretty close to actuals. Pretty much the only time estimates are off by that much is with sunday (and in this case holiday monday) early projections but we are tuesday afternoon already and estimates just got updated.

I'll be honest - superhero fanatics and haters are probably the worst in terms of toxic discourse, but the true Cameron loonies on this board manage to take word salad cult-like monologues to a whole other level. Nowhere near toxic, but quite headache-inducing.
There's really only one person like that. Best to skip his posts.

so is there a reason monday gross jumped more than 100% from last weeks monday. Do we expect this trend to continue for the rest of the week?
As far as i know, monday was a holiday.

An important factor in that, though, is that Avatar premiered closer to Christmas, which means that the weekdays in the first week was more inflated.
That's what i said ("different calendar setup").

what exactly will an Star Wars Episode 10 bring to the table that would result in such huge grosses? They already played the “long awaited return of Luke, Han, and Leia” with Episode 7
Agreed, nothing will top the hype of TFA (old gang is back). Or Episode 1 (1st movie / content since the OT).

It's hold better than A1 did the last 7 days
Because of different calendar setup (and the storm). A1 had about similar first midweekdays than A2 despite a much smaller opening. That tells you how much more inflated those days were.
Hey, don't get me wrong, i'd love for you to be right but you are not making much sense.

Just now, IronJimbo said:
yes exactly, you're putting contraints on A2 that don't need to exist
We had this discussion, A2 is not holding as well as A1, why would it suddenly start dropping better than that film?
-
So, some are predicting a better drop than A1's post holiday drop. Okaaaay....
