Any REAL doubts that SUPERMAN vs. BATMAN will crush every record in existence?

[Sam]

I don't give a shit.. When you look at the number I just layed out, that's more than fucking winning for any superhero movie that Batman vs Superman even wishes they would achieve..

:lol:Just pointing that your predictions contradict your earlier statement

[Michael Gary Scott]

Well im excited for both movies even if I dont trust Snyder can deliver a great movie

[Kvikk Lunsj]

Yes based on how MOS opened it will be quite front loaded but even so the numbers should be massive.

 

TA2 will be front loaded but it benefits from having 2-3 weeks to itself so its going to have a decent Multiplier no worse then IM3 I imagine and that is fine considering the massive opening weekend it will have.

 

 

 

I think the major advantage TA2 has is family audiences, we saw this with TA2 and with IM3, the Marvel brand has successfully become insanely popular with the Disney age crowd. 

Avengers could have a worse multiple than IM3.

Avengers could have a worse multiple than IM3. 

unless TA2 is terrible, I can't see a worse multiplier than IM3. No big movie will be brave enough to release at least two weeks after TA2 OW. IM3 had Gatsby, STiD, TH3 and FF6 of competition

What's the point of this thread?

MEET THE FOCKERS..

Meet the Parents wasn't a record breaker BKB.

Jurassic Park 2: dropped

Empire Strikes Back:  dropped

TDKR:  dropped

Harry Potter 2:  dropped

Spiderman 2: dropped

Jaws 2:  dropped

 

I don't feel like doing research but this is off the top of my head.

[Master Scottb]

I think The Avengers 2 and Star Wars Ep. 7 will beat this.

[baumer]

I don't doubt that the popularity is there but history is not on your side.  

[peludo]

Well get ready to see the 1 time where the sequel actually outdoes the original cause TA2 is going to do it without skipping a beat.. It's just too insanely popular right now and MARVEL'S Flagship movie for this not to occur after the staggering amount of $$$ it's made.. It's clear the GA loves it and this is undisputed..

As baumer said, I do not doubt of Avengers popularity and if there is a movie with chances to surpass 623 million is TA2 (IMO, it has more chances than Avatar 2), but recognize that it is a very difficult challenge.

[Sam]

No matter how popular or loved TA is, I just can't see an increase. The novelty is not there anymore, and that is, IMO, the biggest factor that lead to repeat viewing business, which help TA's gross immensely. I think it'll open big again, 210M+, and with virtually no competitions in sight, as long as the movie doesn't suck badly, it'll reach 500M. But I don't see any numbers pass 550M at the moment.

Meet the Fockers didn't open on a Friday, so it skews matters up.

Fockers isn't a record setter.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Fockers isn't a record setter.

I'm just Saying...

[baumer]

So am I.  

[cheesypoofs]

That's impossible.  Find me a record grossing film that had a sequel with better legs and or a better opening for its sequel.  Just one.  

Nothing is impossible, but it's not likely.

[Lordmandeep]

TA 2 pretty much will still make 1.5 billion WW.

[peludo]

TA 2 pretty much will still make 1.5 billion WW.

IMO, it will do quite more. I think 1.1-1.2 billion OS is the target. So, it should fly to about 1.7 billion WW. If the movie is as good as first part, I would not rule out 2 billion. It would be quite difficult, but not impossible.

[#ED]

2 billion?...

Batman Superman has zero chance of competing with Avengers 2. The only chance it had of competing is if they had brought back Bale and made it some loose sequel to the Dark Knight Saga. Since that is not happening, forget about it. There won't be any competition here
