Ent Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) TF3 really did it...but again coming from TF2 with $440+ millions is more complicated to double the take. Edited May 12, 2013 by Ent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPink Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 (edited) A lot of people? A lot of people knew the Dark Knight was going to be only the 4th movie to break a billion? Though I suppose doubling Begins WW wouldn't be so unreasonable. Edited May 12, 2013 by MrPink Unchained Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 A lot of people?When that teaser came out I don't think no one knew how that big that movie was going to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiantCALBears Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 One more thing, the fact that IM3 is already at $949m WW shows how important the Asian markets are for ANY future summer movie. Such a massive source of revenue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By opening week, maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
