Chewy Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 I really wish Kal was here so we could all learn more about how Tobey will contribute to Gatsby's success 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 While watching this movie, for 15 odd minutes ending with the gif you posted, I could not believe this was actually happening in a Spider-Man movie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattrek Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 13-16 would still get it to mid 40s this weekend. That's perfectly good.I can guarantee right now there's no way it's OD is that low. There's already lots of sellouts for tonight and the buzz is off the charts for this movie. It will also have a huge front-loading factor with the rush to see it. I literally can't see it doing only 10-13m for all of today when the midnights/previews did 3.3m last night. The math doesn't add up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted May 10, 2013 Author Share Posted May 10, 2013 Nikki reports early numbers: http://www.deadline.com/2013/05/the-great-gatsby-overperforms-for-3-250-late-shows-breaking-record-for-female-driven-films/ I'd like to know what records Nikki speaks of. Apparently IM3 set some kind of record last weekend and now GG is setting a record this weekend. I'm going to have to check the record books.

Poseidon Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) We have been fooled by sellouts many times. Iron Man is surely still playing in the biggest theaters. But that early numbers are really quite low, I can't see 13m incl. previews happen. 16m, that means it would probably not even open in the 40s.

I'm going to have to check the record books. "Pic is already is a record-breaker, doing more Thursday 10 PM / Friday midnight business from approximately 2,000 theaters than three other recent female-driven films." Sounds like some obscure record that nobody was ever checking for. You know, kind of like they do in sports. What were the 3 other recent female driven films that would even be on the radar?

I'm going to have to check the record books. I like to imagine Baumer going down into a vast cellar lit by candles. To the right, a massive bookshelf against the wall. Rows of large binders with a year written on each of them. Filled by every conceivable box office stat, his fingers gaze them as he tries to select the one he needs to figure out the truth....

MovieMan89 Posted May 10, 2013 Share Posted May 10, 2013 (edited) At a 5:00 Gatsby showing, theater is packed. Probably about 70 percent women. Edited May 10, 2013 by IronMan89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
