#ED Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Yeah, I'd be pretty sure of that too.Catching Fire may be the only chance but it will be extremely front loaded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Not compared to TREK09. Yes but Mexican market has expanded greatly since than so this number is nothing to write home about. At this point I'm just hoping for 300M OS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 300m OS would be a huge success for STID. I think it falls somewhere around 250-300m. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Gary Scott Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I'm holding out hope for a 600 WW total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 For Trek, its domestic performance is the key now, as it always is. I'm happy with any kinds of increases over ST09 OS, 300M OS would be great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wileECoyote Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Not compared to TREK09.AgreedFair enough, but let's be honest, a 5-6 mill total in a market like Mexico isn't that great, is it?I try to think of it as a very good step forward in a big rebranding campaign. The vey fact that its growing shows some headway in changing people's perception of the franchise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackzack Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) The amount it has grossed internationally is just stunning. No matter where this ends up, it must be some record. Has a series of films ever had that big of a jump from the second part to the third part? I don't think it has. In fact, I don't think it's even close. IM3 has done something that has never been done before. It's going to double the gross of the second film. Must be Sir Ben hamming it up... That scene is so ridiculously hilarious that I forgot this is a superhero movie and Mandarin is a well known villain in the Marvel universe.

I guess you could make a comparison to Skyfall's jump over QoS, though of course that was the 23rd film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That scene is so ridiculously hilarious that I forgot this is a superhero movie and Mandarin is a well known villain in the Marvel universe. he didn`t ham it up to Blanchitto levels for sure. In fact, the character felt very natural for an attention whore stage actor. Edited May 15, 2013 by baumer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 IM3 will end up 40M+ there. In where? Mexico? Yes, that's a huge number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 In where? Mexico? Yes, that's a huge number. Yes, Mexco. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 In where? Mexico? Yes, that's a huge number. It's already at 42.3M so 50M looks like a strong possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 In where? Mexico? Yes, that's a huge number.40M+ in Mexico is huge of course, but considering that TA did 60M+ just a year ago, the number for IM3 is understandable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the numbers for films with 3 or More sequels that have big WW jumps, the only one that stands out is Skyfall. Given the JB track record this is even more amazing to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point I'm just hoping for 300M OS.Movie market has expanded, but c'mon ST made only 3.4 in its entire run in Mexico and it just opened at 3M. I'm not sure where it will end up but it looks to be well north of 3.4M. That just shows how weak the franchise originally was and how big of a hole it has tig out of.
