REVISED Weekend Estimates 6/14--6/16: Man of Steel OW $116.7M($128.7M including WM)

Awesome number.

[#ED]

It's BS that BOM isn't counting the Walmart grosses at part of the midnights; it's the same situation as 9PM Iron Man 3 shows...

 

8PM as well.

[#ED]

Regardless, it did beat every movie this year in terms of Previews + Midnights.

 

Frontloaded? Hopefully not.

Sources telling us that MAN OF STEEL - fresh off it's huge start last night - is headed a gross of -2.7 million today. This would be the first time in film history that a movie reported negative results on the day. Studios say the cause of the negative gross is "mass refunds from last night crammed screenings".

 

:angry:

Walmart tickets are still tickets, right?

Is it discounted? 

[Blankments]

Even if I end up hating the movie, I'll always love this tune

Zimmer's score is phenomenal, but this track does take the cake.

 

 

8PM as well.

 

Oops, that's what I meant haha.

Walmart paid WB for the tickets, and then acted as a reseller to the consumer.

[Dipper]

Do you think that since WB has shared the actual Midnight number, that studios will slowly share midnight #s for other films released in the future?

There's nothing quite like authorized ticket scalping

Nikki may put an update up soon(12PM PST update).

[ZattMurdock]

Winter is coming!

 

Christmas comes in Winter!

Winter is coming this June, 21th here in Brazil... but the night is dark and full of terrors. 

[Biggestgeekever]

Going to be gone for the next 4 hours. Would anyone kindly text me any early numbers?

It happens all the time for sporting events and concerts... don't see why movies are all that surprising.

[Ozymandias]

So, 130m+ is likely?

How much those tickets cost relative to regular ones?

[kitik]

This x 1000.  If a precedent is set, follow it.  Regardless of how the money is made.

 

Isn't the precedent that BOM always separates out preview shows from midnights when the numbers are reported separately, like here with the distinction being made between 12 and 9M?

don't we always hear midnight numbers?

[ZattMurdock]

I'm sticking with +- $100m likely.

[ban1o]

Guys the numbers were reported spearetely. BOM isn't doing anything wrong.
