I don't know Avatar 2 will need to push the envelope visually to do that well. I don't even think it will reach half what the original did in the US. I can't see it doing too much of am increase in China even with the vastly expanded market.
The people I have talked to about TGD outside of the forums aren't looking at it like a Pixar/Disney/DreamWorks animate film, but more as something like Planes. I don't think that the film is getting Pixar's usual crossover appeal, and could be losing even the older end of the target audience on this one.
It is the ebb and flow of the forum that posters rise and fall come and go and it is on this night that we look upon ourselves and prey for the return of the gods old and new. We ask for their return and that they bless us with their presence and their numbers. The last hope is on the horizon, if the force does not awaken them I don't know what will.
These are bound to be unpopular: The star wars prequels were more entertaining films than the Hobbit movies. Also The Kingsman was better than any of the Bond films.
So let's see for FF
10.3 Friday
7.8 Saturday (a bit higher than Friday sans midnight)
6.4 Sunday (20% drop)
24.5 max OW
I can't see this even clearing $25 for OW
I can honestly say Lucy was my least favorite movie I have seen in theaters. Its pseudo intellectual plot and cinematography clashed heavily with its assumption that the viewers wouldn't understand any info that they weren't spoon fed. The early action was good but later action scenes were dry and pointless. The movie couldn't even reach the so bad it's good catagory, and worst of all the film wasted a talented cast.
I think I read it wrong, I assumed market was the number in Yuan (I am only about 60% sure it is) and I forgot to multiply by market share (assuming box office accounting is market share not certain of that) It would by 152*.94=142.9 yuan
I am tryjng to avoid reading any spoilers, so sorry if its mentioned earlier. Should I watch the agents of shield episode that came out the tuesday before AoU before I see AoU?
To be honest, most of the investment media sucks at covering box office information (at least when it comes to predictions) The small time investors will see it as a win. Whether the big money investors do is the question. They are likely more focused on merch potential and the earnings report on Tuesday.
edit: Though some sites have been mentioning high DOM predictions as of late. It will probably end up slightly down if they invested based on those predictions. Dis was up $1.80/share Friday so it may dip a bit. The big factor will be Tuesday's earnings report.
I'd say CA3
Current WW = 7786.8
final AoU-current AoU=800 (for a total of $1.4267B probably low) 8586.8
$550 M Antman $9136.8B post antman
if CA3 > $863.2M it will be CA3.
I think CA3 will get at least $1B because of Iron Mans involvement.
