I honestly don`t see why he couldn`t make something else before Avatar(s). At this point it really doesn`t matter if they come out in 2016 or later. Heck, he`ll have much improved tech to bring his crazy ideas to life.

Shouldn`t Victoria Day (Canadian holiday) help Sunday hold a bit and ifnlate Monday?

Totally. That Avatar 4 and no movies but Avatars talk = dellusion. So over him. So. Over!

Yes they will especially with Saturday jump which Battleship won`t have. Even if initial rush results in Battleship taking the Friday weekend will be TA`s.

That`s $280-285 mio away from $1 billion OS. can it have enough steam?

Better be $7 mio! Thsi thread was huge shock to my system this moring.

Shit, TA goes down.

:wub: :wub:We know #3 is happening WW. Question is, can #2 or higher happen dom and #3 OS?

I want minimum $1 billion OS to happen for TA.

Dude, just say the magic word - it hits top 5.

Good. Make BAA before Avatars. or Cleo.

people, stop laughing at my sig! It`s love, you should melt, not laugh, lol!

Shiekapoo died.

Obviously mixed reactions from the screening scared them.

I guess you do. It`s OK. I hate it, seriously. And this is from a major HC and FOTR fan. IMO, LOTR completely pushed him into a safe zone and PJ brand way of thinking. I mean, look at dwarves design. They are so OTT different from one another they don`t even feel like they belong to the same race or band. All because he wants more action figures. he doesn`t see a character but action figure for WETA Sideshow to make and sell. That won`t last forever, though. he`s protected by TH`s bult-in fandom but there will be a big movie that won`t sustain that bullshit and will take him down. Just watch it. TLB was close but it didn`t cost like JC although it was much costlier than Paramount admitted.

And i`m sorry that you don`t see problems that are getting bigger and bigger as PJ makes more movies. Strong source kept them in check some in LOTR what but KK was weak because they invented 1/2 of the movie and all of it was horrid filler and missing the point of the original movie and TLB is disaster of a special calibre because at that point, they really thought they can do everything better than the source and obsession with SFX reached Lucasian levels and even exceeded it. Funny, though, he ahd the strongest cast in TLB yet they gave career worst performences save Ronan who was good but had nothing to do except look sad or angushed while gazing in the distance from her fake gazeboo.

I don`t want it to crash. I just don`t want it to be Top 3, or, preferably Top 5. Big difference. I`m sick of Jackson and his bullshit. I love the book but he is really fucking up the movies with his awful juvenile humor that panders to lowest common denominator, nonsensical additional plot points and he always casts some Z-list actors whose acting I don`t find inspiring at all. I thought that LOTR cast sucked in general save few saving graces but most perforemnces were just forgettable or plain bad. So judging by the description of the footage, this is a cross between The Hobbit (good parts), Narnia and HP (bad parts). Fuck that.I`m not a purist but stuff he and those harpies made-up was infinitely inferior to what they filmed when sticking closely to the source in LOTR and judging by that sizzle reel, same goes for TH. Oh, and KK was at its worse during all the scenes that were their fiction. TLB...well, the book was attrocious and the movie was just as bad in its own right despite taking liberties (which should have improved that drek but strangely didn`t).

It`s gonna be much above after end of this week.

Yes, please.

Incredible for THG!TA made history, that hasn`t changed.

Actuals?

TA isn`t behaving like a typical SH movie OS that`s for sure. This is HP/POTC/LOTR level. So I don`t see why japan would be such a huge exception to already broken rule.

SH movies ddin`t do well OS in general until TA. None of SH movies ever came close to $600 mio OS and TA is smashing this. You are just worried that TA may deservedly win the year over your precious TH.

It`s made $628 mio OS off $95.4 mio weekend. So it should be able to pull over $100 mio weekly (7 days) for next week and close to that mark a week after. That`s conservatively $828 mio before Japan with still lots of steam left from holdovers. I can`t imagine TA bombing in Japan. Doesn`t compute. I mean, stranger things happened. TDK didn`t exactly set Japan on fire if I recall correctly. But TA is a different kind of SH, more to Japanese tastes.DS and Battleship which is fading OS obviously aren`t threats. Test is MI3. It may not seem anticiptaed domestically but you never know with OS. OST exploded OS while scoring the lowest OW and final gross of them all domestically.Also, if TA has a shot at the landmark, Disney will make it happen. I mena, c`mon, $1 billion OS is a matter of prestige. They should make it happen to twart WB`s aspirations to take the year with either TDKR or TH or both.

$1 billion OS is happening.
