Under the 1M mark: - TheWayWayBack: what a PTA! - Epic: closing 20+M under Robots is just a terrible shame for BlueSky (coming from a IceAge fan). - IronMan3: can it still catch HungerGames? - MuchAdoAboutNothing: Whedon's little pleasure will get to 5M+! - TheCroods: never dies. Over 185M is cooler than dying at 184,9 or something.

Hey, that's my kind of symetric post! Missing: in ***insert date***, Bay directs a film falling like a rock.

Pain &Gain at 50M... A Bay movie with TheRock & Whalberg flexing their muscles still closing UNDER a 40+years old Halle -alwaysmockedhere- Berry thriller!

**True!** I like it because it keeps the symetry: Summer 09: 2 movies Summer 11: 2 movies Summer 13: 2 movies But it breaks the " 2 100Mmovies" pattern. Well, he won't have any 100M grosser this summer, so...

4 years after the Wolverine/Proposal summer... 2 years after the GreenLantern summer... I can't wait to make the balance of his 2013 summer!

Pixar releases with consecutive days over 10M / 1M: MU: 6 / 17 (and counting) Brave: 3 / 31 Cars2: 3 / 31 ToyStory3: 10 / 45 Up: 3 / 45 WallE: 3 / 31 Ratatouille: 3 / 38 Cars: 3 / 45 TheIncredibles: 3 / 24 FindingNemo: 3 / 59 MonstersInc: 3 / 24 ToyStory2: 4 / 19 ABug'sLife: 2 / 12 ToyStory: 2 / 19 orange = winter releases - Since Cars, 31 or 45 seem to be the norm for the 1M days (Ratatouille excepted). - Cars2 is the only sequel to not get more than 3 10M days. - Finding Nemo 1M days record is still standing one decade later...

Arghhh Too much "bad" in MU-related posts.

Whao... I wasn't posting in june but i remember some saying/asking/shouting 60-70M TOTAL for this one. Well done Brad!

True! But what about the "3weekends movies"... A big feat followed by bad consequences, as we see it now. SharkTale: bad reputation HappyFeet: Part2 crashed & burned Shrek4: Franchise "killer"

Zombies & Brad * vs Jaegers & Charlie * = my choice

Oh yes! Really want to see that one. And Gravity is coming in the end of the year... If only SandraBullock could do again the one-two punch of 2009 (Proposal + Blindside) Not talking about oscars, just dollars. 2 150M movies in 1 year. Actress over 45. What a feat.

Animated movies staying 1st 2 weekends in a row (last 20 years): 2013: MonstersUniversity + DespicableMe2 (for now) 2012: TheLorax + Madagascar3 2011: Rio + TheLionKing3D + PussinBoots 2010: Shrek4 (3weekends!) + ToyStory3 + Megamind 2009: CloudywithachanceofMeatballs 2008: HortonHearsaWho 2007: none! 2006: IceAge2 + Cars + HappyFeet (3 weekends!) 2005: ChickenLittle 2004: Shrek2 + SharkTale (3 weekends!) + TheIncredibles 2003: none! 2002: none! 2001: MonstersInc 2000: none! 1999: ToyStory2 1998: Antz + ABugsLife 1997: none! 1996: none! 1995: ToyStory (3 weekends!) 1994: TheLionKing 1993: Aladdin (3 weekends!) I think the "none" situation of 2007 will be the last ever...

The same that evaporated, this year, in front of Olympus & 42's eyes... Everytime a movie finishes between 95M & 100M, i'm all i'm a 100Millions$sucker, i guess. (i know, 42 is at 94.6M but still)

Ok, thanks! The more we have 100M grossers this summer, the better!

How can this resist until 100M? Will be hard.

It seems that summer2013 will quite rule the "Biggest movies not opening in 1st" charts...

So, as facts or projections, in may2013 releases, we have: 1 400M movie 2 200M movies 3 100M movies And in june2013 releases, we have 1 300M movie 1 200M movie 2 100M movies July2013, for now: 1 300M movie 1 100M movie *****Give me more!*****

Oh! So, no 300M. 2 animated in 2 weeks. It was too much to handle.

PenelopeCruz was bland in Pirates4. Screen presence? Screenplay? Funny: A real life couple in 2 Bonds in a row. (Bardem & Cruz)

Will Diesel have enough fuel to last again & again ?

DM2 just under 100M, then? lol Meltdown, indeed. It would have spare us all these "Illumination is the new Pixar" talk.

I hope EmmaThompson gets luckier with this one than with BeautifulCreatures. I'm curious for this movie!

And comparing to another modest-thriller-with-an-actress-over-40? (Cellular)

So many shocks if it was the case: - A gross in "2" like the "officialparamountsummertentpole" StarTrek. - A gross in "2" like TomCruiseoblivion... Worldwide! - 1st time for BradPitt - 1st time for Marc Foster
