I have a hard time believing this. It would only have a $6m lead on the actual weekend over F&F7 and that one actually was received quite well by audiences AND critics. -
I think MBFGW deserves a mention in the headline, because actually, it's an overperformer this weekend.
-
I dont know if it was mentioned before, but Deadline updated the estimates: They have BvS: $80,5m Zoomania: $23,9m Weekend MBFGW: $7,7m Allegiant: $3,9m (OUCH) http://deadline.com/2016/03/batman-v-superman-opening-weekend-box-office-records-1201726300/

Let's hope RTH doesn't underestimate presales again, like when he did for SW. Any Number in the 80s would be just fine for the movie.
-
BvS opened fairly well in France with the first showings at 2PM. Big weekend ahead.

200m isn't possible without a good reception and a hype. There's no way this novie is creating a hype with general audiences with that kind of reviews. This won't work. It will be huge, but the 200m-Club is another league.

Hello kayumanggi,
earlier today, I got a warning, allegedly having insulted you.
Allegedly I called you a loser with the following posting:QuoteOh, sorry for having a discussion on topic.
I remember, that you are a loser over here doing this.
It is pretty obvious, that the "loser" in this context is me and it is self-centred sarcasm.
Now I'm having a discussion with the guy who warned me. That's one thing, to be warned for an insult, that was never written by me.What's most important to me, though, is, what you feel. Did you feel that I called you a loser in that posting or do you understand it the way I meant it?
Would be nice to respond, as it is not my intention to offend anybody and I'm surely not insulting anybody.
Would be nice, if you could respond, because it's important to know for me.
Best wishesPoseidon

No, probably , but holding the budget for a sequel is always a hint, that they safe money here and there. They made the 2nd Percy Jackson for $5m less than the first one and well, you saw, that it dropped in it's optical quality, too. And if you are looking to safe money afterwards, you always lose in quality. If you plan it from the start, seeing what's possible, it always looks better, even with a lower budget.
-
More for the cast, less for the actual movie. It is reported, Woodley got only 250k-500k for Divergent. So you can do the calculations...
-
The Maze Runner films are a great example of clever and money saving filmmaking. You don't need 300 sets to deliver an entertaining and good looking movie. But Fox has always been pretty good in keeping the budgets low.
-
$110m-$120m according to Deadline. http://deadline.com/2016/03/allegiant-zootopia-miracles-from-heaven-1201721148/ Shouldn't be a horrible Flop in the end, but nothing to be too proud of.

Divergent, Hunger Games, Twilight, Maze Runner. They all have pretty good first books, Hunger games even 2, but they all have terrible anticlimatic endings and don't feel, like they were planned from the beginning. There have been no consistant main enemies no concistant enemies. It all changes all the time. Good, bad, dead, new bad, 2 weeks good, bad again, dead etc. That's the big difference to the Potter series. It was all structured to finish in a big bang. And it did. From the beginning it was clear, Harry vs. Voldemort.
-
That's, of course, right. They want 225m? Well, they need 105-110m on OD for this. SW did 62m on Friday alone, so those are dimensions, that need an overall and general hype. Let's see, if Ben Affleck can hype up some girls in the next couple of days. But one thing is pretty sure: Forget about 200m with anything under 35m in Previews.
-
Wouldn't that be kind of expected? 80m OD could very well mean "only" low 160s.

The compareable weekend would be the Friday 26th, 2010. A lot of movies jumped by moren than 100%. Where do you get your number from? I think 2013 would be a good year to compare, with easter being on March 29th. The compareable weekend would be march 22nd, and Oz the great and Poweful jumped by 118% on friday and another 73% on saturday. So following that movie over the week from now, Zootopia would go like this: Tue: 5,2m Wed: 4,3m Thur: 4,1m Fri: 9m Sat: 15,5m Sund: 11,5m
-
I have a hard time seeing Cloverfield do 23m off a 8m Friday including 1,8m worth of previews...
-
Yeah, but London has Fallen is a movie for an older walk-up Audience, Cloverfield was a online phenomenon and this movie is marketed as the Sequel. It should go gangbusters, but there is barely anything.
-
Only 11k Want to see klicks at Rotten Tomatoes and not yet in the Top 5 at Movietickets. This movie should be through the roof online, but it is non-existent. I have a hard time, seeing this break out, if you think about the hell that broke lose, when Cloverfield opened.
-
Nice start for Anne Frank? It's a disaster on more than 500 screens.
-
They are obviously not comparing both films with each other. They probably compare Zootopia to Big Hero 6, which should have had inflated matinees because of the marvel brand and compare LHF to other recent Actionmovies or OHF and as a sequel I expect more frontloadedness. $9m for LHF looks pretty hight to me. In

Variety is saying $18m. https://variety.com/2016/film/news/box-office-zootopia-deadpool-london-has-fallen-1201722992/ I think Zootopia will go up with strong evening shows, LHF on the other hand should skew very old and so might be inflated by early matinees. I expect this to go down in the evening.

ZOOTOPIA | 682.5 M overseas ● 1023.8 M worldwide
Poseidon replied to kayumanggi's topic in International Box Office
I know by checking reservations. But now there are "official" Trend Numbers by Insidekino. Mark G. expects 550-675k admissions over the weekend. Thursday was worth around 40k. -
The Brothers Grimsby | March 11, 2016 | New Trailer on Page 1
Poseidon replied to CJohn's topic in Box Office Discussion
If this goes viral, might it help the movie in the US? Looks like a flop so far. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-brothers-grimsby-sacha-baron-cohen_us_56d8774ce4b03a405677a912 -
ZOOTOPIA | 682.5 M overseas ● 1023.8 M worldwide
Poseidon replied to kayumanggi's topic in International Box Office
It's looking very big in Germany, too. Should do more than 600k admissions on OW and easily double Big Hero 6 here when all is said and done. -
BTW, Deadpool looks very consistant. It opened with the 17th best OW of all times with an inflated sunday. The 2nd WE was 20th of all time. 3rd weekend will be 20th all Time, too. If it holds this, it'll post a 4th and 5th weekend of around $20m and $13m.
