CJohn Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Damn... that is terrible. Comparing it to The Avengers Monday makes it look even worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 It could do half of Avengers' #s from here on out and still approach 400m. Just saying. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 It could do half of Avengers' #s from here on out and still approach 400m. Just saying. It's got no chance of missing 400. Then again, if it has Spider-man 3's 2.22X, it will make 386. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narniadis Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Ouch - expected a little more than that - Being in May skews the numbers a bit more.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

junkshop36 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Well, there goes 400m!! This isn't quite the Avengers. It'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 $12m would be a pretty good number. That would be a smaller Monday drop than IM1. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatebox Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 To not hit 400m after that OW would mean a terrible multiplier, I'm sure it'll get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pensivepenguin Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 So are we chalking up this drop to WOM or this being more of a family film than previously thought? Its WOM will not be anywhere near TA but as baumer, it's also not as toxic as SM3's. Or is it too early to tell still? The LA Times is reporting that it played more as a family film than The Avengers did last year (27% family ticket buyers vs. 10% for The Avengers), which I personally found surprising because it didn't play like a family film to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is definitely less of a family film than TA and that will bear itself out as the film progresses through its run. I would say what you saw on opening weekend was a bunch of families that loved TA showing up for IM3 when they maybe didn't see TA until later in its run (or even on home video). That being said, I think it's too early to start making assumptions about WOM. We need to see how it does through Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatebox Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Very curious to see the second weekend drop. Gatsby's more of a threat than Dark Shadows was but, all things considered, there could be much worse competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
