I also think RN is making 200 even if it takes its whole run to get there. Can't see it missing 190m at any rate, unless UNCLE was some big surprise breakout.

80%+ 2nd weekend drop is happening for Fant4stic. Good god what a terrible Monday # for it.

Wasn't D Train a last minute wide release that got decided after the game started? I don't think it should count if so.

I'm sure at least one maybe two of the three oscar bait dramas (Jobs, Black Mass, Bridge of Spies) will do it, but yeah probably not all. Don't see Everest missing 100 with the major push its received. The Walk is the biggest question mark out of all in that month. Could breakout huge, could tank huge.

I'm interested to see how the September 18th through October 16th releases play out. I feel like in that span Black Mass, Everest, Scorch Trials, Hotel Transylvania, The Walk, The Martian, Pan, Steve Jobs, and Bridge of Spies all have 100m potential. But I highly doubt we can have 9 100m+ releases over that short fall period. Would be really fun if we do though.

Everytime I see Gravity criticism a part of my soul dies.

I think the trailer just emphasizes how much Ridley's movies aren't appealing to the GA these days. And then there's the whole Mars movie curse.... So yeah, definitely out. Maybe it can pull 40m OW if they market the heck out of it, but I don't think any more.

Honestly that sounds like something a middle schooler would think was cool. How college aged students can still act like they're 12 is forever baffling.

That being only 5 years ago...

I can't resist calling this the "Hateful Eightful."

True, that is one thing AotC has. Beautiful theme.

Grievous on the Sith cover sticks out like a sore thumb though. The rest are very aesthetically pleasing as well as significant characters, and then you have one of the most insignificant and poorly designed characters getting his own cover. At least they don't go for Dooku on the Clones cover. That would really suck.

I hate on TPM more probably because I think there was potential for a great movie. Opposed to Clones where it's like mediocre was the best we were ever gonna get there.

Maul's whole look was so damn flawless. Criminal how poorly utilized he was. So much potential there. TPM actually had a lot of potential in general when you think about it. Unlike AotC which never had much of anything going for it.

Lol, are they trying to tell us something by featuring all villains on the covers (excluding Yoda)?

Wow. Imagine if Home had done as badly as most everyone thought it would.

Then you'd think Fox would really want to re-release them and cash in on the sequel trilogy hype as much as they can.

They clearly want to take out Star Wars with the AoU expansion and move one more rung up the top ten. Hopefully that doesn't happen. SW needs a re-release soon, it's getting way too close to falling out of the top ten for the first time in damn near 40 years.

They better push JW hard. I want to see a ship sink dammit.

Exactly. There would be absolutely nothing wrong with a 155-170m OW for it. That would be a huge success considering no Superman movie has touched that range and even the beloved TDK/TDKR are only in that range. But some people's expectations for it are just too high.

I honestly think it's going sub IM3 OW. I know way too many people that are still nothing but skeptical about it. DC is far from proven yet at the BO and there's been virtually no universe building for this like we got with TA. People underestimate how much the two IM movies and Thor and CA did to build up the hype for TA. BvS is the MoS sequel. I mean just let that sink in for a moment.

The Thursday night gross for TFA will make DH2's midnight seem quaint.

TFA could obliterate TA/JW's OW. BvS? LMFAO.
