acsc1312 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 SATC definitely is. Predominantly female audience rush factor.My showing was pretty split between men and women. I think teens will go in coed groups, whereas something like MM was like groups of girls only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 This weekend is gonna be epic here. Gatsby over performing, IM3 dropping 60+ The two weekends after are going to jokes as well People hugely high balling or low balling Star Trek 2 and then Hangover 3 gets killed and Fast 6 gets high and low balled and then how Im3, GG and Star Trek fare over this weekend. A lot of entertainment coming up and I expect heart break. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acsc1312 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 This is gonna be a great summer here I'm still on the H3 being huge. I just need something to rub in people's faces at the end of the year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyGossamer Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) In reference to my quote of Aldrich Killian back on Page 7, between Trek, Hangover and Fast, who's the first, second and third mouse? Is there enough cheese to around for everyone? Obviously, now that I think of it, Iron Man's the early bird in this year's summer blockbuster season.

Poseidon Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 While "The Great Gatsby" may have been marketed for females, it is still an adaption of a classic novel, that appeals to everybody. This is not "Sex and the City". "Sex and the City" isn't a movie your grandparents or school classes would watch. "The Great Gatsby" is. I think this could go everywhere and those preview numbers are outstandingly well. Remember also, this is May, not end of June, when "Magic Mike" opened...

JohnnyGossamer Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) I'm going with a second weekend somewhere between $71.4M and $74.1M for IM3. With the Tobey factor, Gatsby grosses somewhere between $44.2M and $46.9M. That's where I'm at... Edited May 10, 2013 by JohnnyGossamer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 It's easier to compare the performance of new releases in North America to older ones. The trouble with many OS markets is that they're so new. Plus movies are released different times OS. Movie companies always announce the DOM date first and slowly announce the OS dates for each country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTF Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I'm going with a second weekend somewhere between $71.4M and $74.1M for IM3. With the Tobey factor, Gatsy grosses somewhere between $44.2M and $46.9M. That's where I'm at...The Tobey factor? Unless he's web slinging Leo, there is no Tobey factor. Huge # for TGG though, very interesting weekend coming up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 Looking at this May will be fun.. 2014 and 2015 May will be boring apart from tracking one film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) Tobey Factor ? I lol'ed ! Funny this guy has been in one of the biggest franchise ever and he still represents nothing in Hollywood, he is such a non entity.

ecstasy Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I'm not surprised at the Gatsby number. I'm a little disappointed. I was hoping for 5m in midnights. I guess it's good if you were expecting it to fail. But I wasn't. Oh well. Good number I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmandeep Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 You need to keep expectations in check and also remember a film like Gatsby is in smaller screens so it is much easier to sell out. If we went based on screen count to sellout ratio Magic Mike and Hangover 2 should be the biggest openers ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
