Dat Avengers Effect is a strong force I tell ya. Yeah, I believe Snowpiercer will do well too even with so-so WOM. Song Kang Ho-Director Bong combo I'm sure will draw crowds no matter what. and it's not like the movie is a total disaster.Speaking about Chris Evans, would live to hear your review of him in the role too. He's also one if the reasons I'm very interested in Snowpiercer, I love him as an actor.
Yup, that's expected. I figured so is the case with Snowpiercer in its second weekend. The problem is not whether WOM is okay or not, but to hold screens, and seems like not many movies got much screens. Turbo doing well cause it's the first kid movie in months. Red 2, Lee Byung Hun, enough said. Something has to take the damage.
1. Thor: The Dark World
2. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
3. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
4. The Good Dinosaur
5. Gravity
6. Wolf of Wall Street
7. 2 Guns
8. Elysium
9. Frozen
10. X-Men: Days of Future Past
Turbo doing well is not a surprise really, it's summer, parents will want to take kids to see some animated movies.Besides, there hasn't been a single kid movie in months, which baffles me as to why DM2 and MU not scheduled for summer months to take advantage.
It'll need 40M+ from Japan for any chance at 700M. Current OS markets and US will finish with total around 655M-660M, could be lower. I'm thinking 365M OS (without Japan) and giving it 295M domestic as the absolute high end (I think it's unlikely though, 290-292 sounds like a safer bet)
