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

[Ball Lightning]

BTW, it's a huuuuuge if, so it's probably not worth considering yet, but if it comes in at the high-end of Rth's estimates, with Walmart that puts it really near IM3's first day. Which is just shocking, really.

 

Are we sure that it doesn't include walmart's numbers?

[Dementeleus]

Watch, Rth will be all "PSYCCCHHHH, it's really headed for a $38m Friday".

[BoxOfficeZ]

Seriously guys, think about this. Possible 130+ OW for a reboot of Superman in June. AWESOME!

Why is Nikki projecting 20.8M for the 3-day for TITE with an 8M Friday? There aren't any previews in that number since it opened on Wednesday.

[Dementeleus]

Are we sure that it doesn't include walmart's numbers?

 

Yes. From the very first predictions (from Nikki, THR, and Rth) they've always separated Walmarts out.

Will this go down as the BO story of the year? Not referring to biggest movie, but biggest surprise; it's exceeding most of our insanely high expectations!

 

Yes, this is in play to be the biggest positive box office surprise of the year.

 

This opening is MUCH bigger than many here anticipated, including myself.

I love that whenever you search a new movie on Twitter during opening weekend, the first result is always (enter new movie) sucks.

If it hits $55m, I'd say yes. That would be the biggest OD for a reboot by $20m, and that's not even including the Walmart money.

[RobinHood26]

The hype was real.

[lab276]

Yeah and it shows

How are other movies doing?

[ZattMurdock]

I'll go with 50-55

I hope that my newfound hope in this film pays off. C'mon Kal-El, don't let me down.

[Cmasterclay]

Incredible. Outstanding.

 

Also, I'm bout to shoot up in the BSG! Thank you, MOS!

[Eraserhead]

It'll be interesting to see what WOM is like, if it's extremely positive (and the current projections hold up) it could have a good shot at beating Iron Man 3 domestically. 

 

I think it'll be too mixed to pull that off though.

[DAR]

Increible

[sdeezy]

55 mill? holy hell

[4815162342]

Just got back. Is that 50-55 number with or without the Walmart?

[Eraserhead]

How are other movies doing?

 

There are other movies? 

[jse]

51M! My 125M prediction is still alive, and with TS3 drops could even go as high as ~130M.

 

9M - mids

42 - Friday day business

40 - Sat (-5%)

34 - Sun (-15%)

125M Total

 

But with TS3 drops:

9M - mids

42 - Friday day business

42 - Sat (-0% flat)

36 - Sun (-13.5%)

129M Total

55M + Walmart = Could have been 67M OD?lol,..

[BoxOfficeZ]

Just got back. Is that 50-55 number with or without the Walmart?

Without. They've been counting Walmart as Thursday now.
