blackspider Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Damn that's a fat increase for IM3. Should do around 75-76m for the weekend. Gatsby looks like its doing right around my OW predict (54m). Overall a really good weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 So with Gatsby and IM3 is it enough to beat May 2012? I hope so. Cause that means we have a strong May. May 2012 is basically TA, barely MIB3, and nothing else 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ent Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 We've known for a little while now that IM3 is basically playing like a family movie. Given the actual context of the movie, that's pretty weird, but hey, a 75-80m second weekend in the face of a low 50s opener is FREAKING AMAZING.Kudos to Gatsby for an extraordinary frame as well. A big breakout hit. I wonder if it can play as counterprograming to Star Trek and the other male-skewing franchises and do upwards of 150m total. WOM seems pretty good to me.If Star Trek doesn't screw things up next weekend, we could be looking at a legendary May. STID has only next weekend and the week after to do major business before F6 and HGIII mess the party. So i expect Trek afficionados to come en masse next weekend. It will hinder for sur Gatsby and IM3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackspider Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 IF!! that 34 mill number holds up, it could get close to 80 mill Possible, but we all thought it was going to be a lot higher than 174m after the Saturday number last weekend. I'd say 75-76m should be the goal here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
