Honestly, has any star been able to sell literally anything, besides Tom Cruise from 1986-2006? (Fun fact: Other than Eyes Wide Shut - and Magnolia, if you count that, every single Cruise starring vehicle over that 20-year period adjusts to over $100m. Even Tom Hanks wasn't that consistent for that long.)
Will Smith got a movie about him playing a Date doctor to $360m worldwide.

It does look dull, but a big name draw like Hanks or DiCaprio or Denzel would be able to make that movie get 70 domestic. I just want people on this forum to realize that RDJ is not a draw himself like other big name actors are.
He may not be as big a draw as Denzel or Dicaprio, but he's a bigger draw than Hemsworth or Evans.

This is one film me and Squaremaster agree on.
I think this is one film you and nearly everybody on this forum agree on.

Why do people on the internet always have to beat on dead horses?
-
Well, I hope it openes above GotG since it looks 10x more appealing than that.

I've read somewhere that on Fandango Gone Girl is selling as many tickets as Gravity. Could we have another huge early October breakout hit?

Too bad that Equalizer is going to end up around 100 domestic and not catch up to Ride Along's 133 million. #1 grossing movie of the year starring a Black person will be one with an 18% on RT. But then again, movies starring a Black person in a leading role this year weren't given a lot of great opportunities. A Haunted House 2 has a 10% on RT. No Good Deed has a 12% on RT. Ride Along 2 at 18%. Think Like a Man 2 at 23%. Hercules at 60%. Average RT score for a movie with a Black person in a leading role this year is in the 40s.
Not this shit again.

Damn, Tombstones got slaughtered by The Equalizer.

Direct competition for the "older actor being a badass" audience. If Denzel and Neeson ever teamed up as co-stars...
$100 million OW would go down.

Very good for The Equalizer. Btw, as someone from Germany I don't quite understand why Denzel is such a big draw in the U.S. I mean, he's likable and all, but that can't be the only reason. His track record, especially his consistency is very impressive IMO.

Sweet, Lucy finally hits $125m domestic. Pretty good legs, over a 2.8x OW multiplier. Very impressive for a quasi action movie with a female lead and an "R" rating.
And yet we still don't have any female-led comic book movies on the schedule.
-
Sin City 2 going for that coveted 13.7m mark this weekend. Also nice drop for GOTG compared to some other movies.

that's right but you don't get the numbers in US$ there which are what most users on this forum care for I think.
And you'r eright about "Who Am I", presales are terrible, at least at my theater. atm it's looking worse than SinCity2
Surprising to me considering Elyas M' Barek is supposed to be a big draw here.
-
So $700m WW is happening. Now we'll depend on China to get to $750m.

Depending on the legs, Maze Runner could break even with the domestic total alone. Certainly a big success.
-
This second estimate looks a lot better for Maze Runner. Also, GOTG is going to surpass Iron Man 2 this weekend.

The Avengers was such a game changer. It's tough to put anything in the superhero genre above that because everything was different after TA. However, after that, your argument for GOTG being such a huge win is definitely a legitimate one.
IM was a nice hit, but it was clearly over-shadowed by TDK. TDK was a massive hit, but even though it grossed more than Batman '89, it still wasn't that far out there. OTOH, the most famous member of GOTG was probably very low on the list of famous marvel superheroes and GOTG was released in a summer where movies have had horrible legs. Almost no one expected GOTG to win the summer and after seeing the legs of the big blockbusters, almost no one expected it to come close to having the legs that it has had.
I think it's safe to say that without The Avengers GOTG would've made around half of what it will end up with now. Maybe even less.

Tomorrow my friend, tomorrow.
Although I like that picture, a picture with a pandabear would have been even more cute.

Frozen was a huge hit. A modern classic. Star Wars, however is far bigger than it will ever be and if Abrams & co. do justice to the franchise, $400 million is the floor.
about 400m thanks to 3d + premiums
I think that 400m is the minimum. 500m+ is likely if the movie is awesome.
-
45 million admissions at most for Star Wars.
What $ gross would that be?
-
It went up 61K from the estimates.
Would have been even better if it cracked $306m with actuals. Well, you can't have everything.
-
I think GOTG is very likely to be No.2 for the year DOM. Hobbit 3 will increase, but not that much and I'm still keeping my expectations in check for Interstellar right now. Anything over $250m for this should be a big success. But with Nolan, you never know.
-
Lucy and GotG are the box office stories of the summer on a WW basis. Huge numbers for both.
GotG is also the top story domestically.

Basically you're questioning Rth than. He said TF4's OW was at 97.5M.
Although I also think it was fudged, even Rth makes mistakes sometimes.
Weekend Estimates: Gone Girl - 26.8M | Dracula Untold - 23.5M | Alexander - 19.1M | Annabelle - 16.4M | The Judge - 13.3M
