kayumanggi Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Too early to tell especially since we don't know who will be Batman. If they get Bale back (Never say never, people), if its Levitt or its someone else together like Hammer or Manganiello. I see the possibility of THE AVENGERS: AOU dropping but not really much.

filmnerdjamie Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I see the possibility of THE AVENGERS: AOU dropping but not really much. You can't repeat that kind of business twice. $400M is locked, I'd say. Nothing past that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAR Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 AoU could do 475-500 and would likely be labeled as a disappointment. (Not by me) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmnerdjamie Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 OW isn't locked to pass the first 1. Far from it. Remember when The Dark Knight Rises was "locked" to break the 3 day (long before Avengers opened)? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted July 27, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) Far from it. Remember when The Dark Knight Rises was "locked" to break the 3 day (long before Avengers opened)? I still think it would have handily topped DH2, but... I agree with your point.

Chewy Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 How many sequels have had smaller OWs after their predecessor broke the OW record? Batman & Robin, Chamber of Secrets, and I think that's it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Avengers AOU won't drop that much in my opinion. It will make about 610 to the first one's 623m. I think it will definitely have more hype and will outgross the rushed looking Batman/Superman movei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman & Robin, Chamber of Secrets, and I think that's it? As far as Friday openers, I think that's it (off the top of my head). AWE probably wouldn't have reached DMC's OW though even with a regular Fri release, though. Edited July 27, 2013 by ShawnMR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 How is Batman/Superman rushed? For all we know Snyder and Goyer could have been working on it while during MoS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just looked, Jurassic Park 3 as well (but TLW had... less than stellar WOM) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Nevermind, JP3 was a Wednesday opener, so it's hard to compare it Here's the OW champ chart, btw http://boxofficemojo.com/alltime/weekends/pastrecords.htm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatebox Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 Has Batman vs Superman been confirmed for 2015? That does seem pretty quick. I mean, Goyer's involved so it's hard to expect great things anyway, but still... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted July 27, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted July 27, 2013 I still would have loved to see what Phantom Menace, Sith, Spidey 2, Return of the King, etc. would have done with normal Friday openings. It's funny to think how much esteem is given to past OW record holders when they partially benefited from many other movies not opening on the "right" day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
