  1. So my early predictions for this (if this opens in China on Chinese New Year) - 

    210m DOM (I'm hoping this turns out to be a great movie with enough WOM for around this much DOM)

    450m OS minus China (I am being a little cautious)

    540m China (I am counting on you JohnnyStorm for this insane no. to actually turn out true)

    1.2B WW. 3rd or 2nd Highest grossing movie of the Year (Behind Civil War and close to BvS)

     

    Yeah my china number is a little too much but i'll see how the rest of this year goes in China. If no other movie is able to come even close to FF7's 390m, then I'll drop it down to 440m. If a number of movies come close to this and a few local movies break out heavily and a number of Foreign movies also gross more than than 200m, I'll let this stay at 500m+. Either way, 1B worldwide seems almost locked for this to me.

  2. Again, one last time, it was an observation of historical data proposing a possible outcome. That's the fun of figuring out a run, not just assuming all will drop 75% and telling other people what to ignore it. You made a comment on my post all the while publishing a prediction of 30-25-18 for the weekend. you are now saying 62-62-43. Thats 100% more (or shall I say 100% wrong (yes you fail)) than your thoughtless prediction and you have the audacity to tell me to chill down? Get a clue. Then again....

    Apparently you just did and the statement is genius, the fact that you are clueless. Most truthful thing I heard all week. Thank You

    Will you just stop No Prisoners? We all respect firedeep mich more than you. He is one of the most knowledgeable about this market and his predictions are the best, closest and most reasonable. And it was you who started the fight without any reason except for you just trying to shine out and seizing the opportunity to channel your jealousy for firedeep. He only, in a very friendly manner, said that your prediction seemed a little too off. He didn't even criticize you to the slightest for it even though it was indeed quite foolish. And you bited 'back' asking him to not think he is omnipotent and whatnot.

    I think I got everyone. 6 more hours to post time.

    No extreme optimists going for 700m DOM or 2B WW? Korea is coming back like Elvis

    I still think Europa shits the bed this weekend.

    Since there's still time I'd like to increase my OS-C prediction to 825m.

  4. Yeah I know but the prophecy about him is that Oedipus kills his dad to take his place on the throne so he could bang his mom. Oedipus is not all about the incestuous love to your mom, despising the dad to the point of commiting patricide and replace him as well.

    Do you guys actually know anything about Oedipus? He didn't kill his dad coz he hated him, it was just a mistake. Similarly, he didn't bang his mom knowingly. He was abandoned as an infant which was why he couldn't recognize his own parents. When these mistakes finally came to light, he punished himself by blinding himself and stuff. Also Oedipan Complex is a psychological term that denotes the suppressed sexual desires one feels towards the parent of the opposite sex as a child.

  5. CGV is the biggest multiplex theatre chain in Korea. They did a breakdown of the audience demography

    10-20: 2.7%

    20-30: 44.4%

    30-40: 36.3%

    40-50:16.7%

    The biggest demography is currently 30s and 40s age group. The teenage demography has a pretty low share and I think its because exams are still not over. They could boost numbers next week.

    That's good. Teens are supposed to be the target audience. If they have such a low share that means there's is still quite some room for growth in numbers.

  6. coz release schedule i think :) but i hope for a boom

    The release schedule is why we at the chinese thread didn't start saying that north of 300m$ is a lock for this movie, even though this is much more tailor-made for the chinese audience than F7, as soon as F7 started making such astonishing numbers.

    Also, most movies lose a majority of their screems by their second weekend anyways, regardless of competition.

  7. How could TA2 get only half the number of screens FF7 got? TA1 was successful in India...

    This is from the distributors -

    "While Avengers: Age Of Ultron too will have outstanding numbers from its India theatrical release, it may not be as big as Fast and Furious 7, courtesy a very simple release – the relative release size! While Fast and Furious 7 had released on the E-Cinema projection systems too, Avengers: Age Of Ultron will limit itself to the 2K digital projection platforms only, like all the major Hollywood film studios do. So, against the 2300 (approx) screens that Fast and Furious 7 released in, Avengers: Age Of Ultron may release only in about 1200 screens. However, if you look at the screen-wise collections, I’m quite sure Avengers: Age Of Ultron will score well over Fast and Furious 7."

  8. I like your optimism but it's too high I think. It will most likely be similar to yesterday which is still fine considering most films drop quite a bit on Sunday.

    I know that but I'm hoping this breaks the 'average movie' style of run and comes out to surprise us :P. Actually I'd be pretty happy with even just 1.1M too though.

  9. That's a fantastic number. Hopefully around £18m opening then, which is $27.3m. Great increase from TA's £15.6m.

    AoU's 2nd weekend falls on bank holiday weekend, Monday is a public holiday, which means the drop should be softened.

    So the second weekend can also be better than TA1's? And how good is this weekend from TA1 in terms of dollars? And could the second weekend remain atleast on flat with the TA1 in terms of dollars?
