Hatebox Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I had no idea it opened next week. Advertising seems really muted here in the UK. Mind you, everytime I say that about an imminent big movie it tends to be as huge as expected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay Beezy Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 I'm gonna make another attempt to see it early with the premiere on Saturday. I'm gonna get there earlier, plus it's a Saturday there won't be as much of a traffic issue going in. If it doesn't work *this* time, I am going to swear off trying this again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's tracking to open over 100M anyways. If I had only made it to last night's screening, I could have beaten it to the punch.

Getting Sly involved makes it too much like a crossover with Expendables and I don't want that. Statham is the exception as he fits right in with Vin and Rock. But having Liam as the final Thanos omega level baddie would be perfect. It would have been more perfect if Paul were still around to have Liam as Brian's long lost not-so-dear-old father (Liam is Irish and so is the surname O'Conner). We wouldn't have put it past this franchise to do that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pets had 104m, Minions had 115m, JW had 208m. I still think 100m is the floor. The franchise is too solid. 125m OW for now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB33 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 $120M domestic OW, $130M the high end. Each film since FAST FIVE has had roughly a 2.4 to 2.45 multiplier so that gives it a predicted domestic total of anywhere between $288M and $318.5M. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB33 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 By the way, for anyone who is interested, the live stream for the world premiere begins on the Fast & Furious official Facebook page at 6:30PM EST, aka in about 40 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
