Also MIB2 is something that it reminds me of.

It already blew up with T2. That film sold about as many tickets as you can sell for an R-rated action movie.

 

Not really.

Wow you just quoted a post from a while back :PBut yeah it was a film people called it a flop for some odd reason.

I don't like IM2 at all, but it wasn't a flop. However if they hadn't done Avengers, Iron Man 3 would have definitely made less money. Marvel lucked out with Avengers being so huge.

I agree. Even if they released a BLACK WIDOW movie now with all her FAKE villains it would still make money.

Well we all know the top 3. I want to know the race for spots 4-10

[blackspider]

T2 and The Matrix Reloaded are in the same ballpark in terms of tickets sold. I think it would've been foolish for people to think that T3 could've put up similar numbers. Reloaded had momentum and hype very few films will ever get.

Whats up with all these "fakes"?

[redfirebird2008]

Not really.

 

Yes, really. Biggest movie of 1991 by nearly 25%.

I just don't like FAKE things. Fake products, fake people and even FAKE VILLAINS in movies. Sorry. Can't help myself.

Luck had nothing to do with it. It was pre-planned from IM1 with the culmination being TA. It required a lot of hard work by many. It worked perfectly but definitely not luck.

Stop crying about it?

I want to cry. Don't deprive me of my right.

IRON MAN ll was part of the plan too? And also the changing of directors?

That is true, Reloaded was anticipated as fuck.  However, it had horrible legs.  It could have made a lot more if it had been received better.

 

Just because two movies in similar genres sell approximately the same number of tickets, doesn't mean that is the cap.

 

 

Yes, really. Biggest movie of 1991 by nearly 25%.

I know, it was huge.

STID drops to 15 M Saturday because of Leo's charisma with the female demo.

Not for another 7 hours. And it really depends on Rth because Nikki usually doesn't do Saturday #s anymore.

[druv10]

lol, Kayu.  Bitching about IM3's gross isn't going help STiD. It's a disappointment and you need to move on.

IM3 and Trek were great. Better then Avatar.
