INFERNO | 10.28.16 | Sony | final gross ● 34.34 M

[MrFanaticGuy34]

The box office grosses for this franchise is pretty interesting. And i have to say, it's almost in the similar line like the Narnia-franchise.

 

First film becomes a large box office smash hit, WW-wise (Narnia: The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe = $745M) & (Da Vinci Code = $758M). Granted....Narnia 1 ($291M) did better DOM-wise than Da Vinci ($217M). The second installment drops considerably from it's predecessor, WW (Narnia: Prince Caspian = $419M) & (Angels & Demons = $485M)....but are profitable nonetheless. That's the closest comparison i could find. Oh, and both franchises are based on the books they came from (C.S Lewis = Narnia) & (Dan Brown = Robert Langdon).

 

Now we get to Inferno. And i do have to ask.........will this film be the "Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader" of the "Robert Langdon"-franchise, box office-wise? Like...the film could gross the lowest in the franchise, DOM-wise....but still come a bit close to it WW-wise, thanks to OS-appeal? We just have to see if the quality for this movie will be better than it's predecessors.

 

Granted again, Narnia 1 & Da Vinci Code were huge hits because of their own advantages they had.

Good analysis. Not sure about DOM(although I think Tom Hanks helps?) but I still think this will do pretty well OS.

You have a very good point. I could be wrong about it DOM-wise since it can go either way. It could maybe do better than Angels & Demons.....but only if the reception is a bit higher and if people like it more.....or the opposite. OS-wise....it will do good either way. My only thinking is.....will China eat this film up?

unfortunately, the book is much better than the movie...which is not that bad, but it's disappointing. 

btw: the end is mehh...the worst Dan Brown adaptation (yet)

Is it as electronic as we feared?

I liked the score. Zimmer Da Gawd. The movie was fun. If you enjoyed Angels & Demons you will enjoy this one.

Angels and Demons was good. So this is closer to that than it is to DaVinci Code?

OMG. I am seeing it on Sunday. Gosh, I am so excited. Also, I've never seen a more massive marketing campaign than for Inferno. It will be huge here, just like DVC and AD.

Pre-sales are big here for today. Should do big business.

I would say so, yeah.

I don't know how it plays in the film as I haven't seen it yet, but oh man, Zimmer 14 minutes suite is DREADFUL. Very Junkie XL-esque.

I had tons of fun with A&D so I'm curiously looking forward to this.

 

Are there any HOLY FUCK epic score moments like the logos in the last one?

I liked the score overall, especially in the final set piece. 

[MrPink]

I need Ddddeeee's opinion on this.

I think it's realistic to expect a drop. Slow marketing roll out, Sequel is too late, so the real question is, what will that drop be? Will inflation alone keep it over $100m Domestic.

Flip side

Some reasonable expectation for a minor increase. Hanks is coming off of Sully, reminding audiences of his star appeal/power. Some absence from the character triggers modest "nostalgia". $150M+ Domestic with inflation also being a factor.

I'm seeing the movie on Saturday and my CD should have arrived by then.

 

I love the first two scores so I need this to be good. Samples not promising.

Based off the samples I've heard, you should be very afraid.
