I don't get why people laugh at others' predictions they're only slightly off. They're called predictions for a reason.
$700M vs $600M+ is not that far off.
It's not like those people who are LOL-ing haven't been wrong before.
I'm not telling Baumer, I'm telling everyone and I didn't say you're wrong, I just said that if you were disappointed with IW then there's no point trying to convince you not to be disappointed with JW2
IW did freaking $2B WW, +$500M from TA, +$600M from AOU, +$900M from CW and Thrylos still find a way to be disappointed so don't argue with him about JW2
I wouldn't call $2B new $1B (maybe new $1B compared to early 2000s, yes)
In order for a movie to reach $2B, it need miracle in some countries. I'm not talking about record breaking, I'm talking about "miracle". Like IW breaking all time record by 70% in Brazil.
TFA has DOM & UK
IW has Brazil and several asian countries
Avatar has 10 countries over $100M
People, when Mon is already too big, Tue increase will be muted or even decrease. This happens again and again with TA, JW, TFA, IW.
Stop freaking out, $600M is likely imo.
