fmpro Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Yes and even the self proclaimed "box office analysts" are wrong as well.I agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Cant see it doing under 30 mill this weekendI dont see how it does. It has to drop very softly to hit 30 mill. I think 29 is more likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 A 13% Wed drop is excellent but if it follows last weekends numbers it gets to about 28.5 mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 GRAVITY is currently running 24m behind INCEPTION and 29m ahead of BLIND SIDE, at the same day in their runs. Make of that what you will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted October 17, 2013 Founder / Operator Share Posted October 17, 2013 I'm thinking Thursday will be generally flat, give or take 2-3%, then a stronger Friday increase than last week (150% or more). Still liking the odds of $30+ million. Wouldn't be too reactionary to daily holds right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seduh Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 since when a 12.8% drop on a wednesday is bad or normal, it's a good drop. I think it may not have the 15% weebly drops some were pretending but 25% weekly drops will take this movie to $275 or more, an incredible number! This is the best box office surprise of the year without a doubt (until now), not only because it exceed expectations on OW, it will have a +5 x OW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumos Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 This is still on target for 300m. And I don't know why people are upset with this number. If any day confused me it was Tuesday which was down -40% from the Tuesday before. However it improved yesterday with a Wednesday to Wednesday drop of -34%, and I expect it to keep going down for a about a -30% drop this weekend.

Lordmandeep Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 300 million needs solid holds for a while. One bad hold and its done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One bad hold and its done. yo are a little extremist, it can handle one bad hold, everything is possible, this movie has great WOM, so i will expect to see what it happens. $300 seems posible but far away for the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackzack Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 Once it needs to give up IMAX screens to THOR2 & THG, the movie will take some form of hit (no pun intended). But I suspect this will play strongly into the Holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However it improved yesterday with a Wednesday to Wednesday drop of -34%, and I expect it to keep going down for a about a -30% drop this weekend.After a 30m weekend gravity needs 130m more to reach 300m. That's 40% of the gross done until 17 days. You know how many films have done that without the help of summer days or holydays?From here, it would need to drop 20% every weekend. And that after a -30% third weekend. You know its going to be very difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jandrew Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) 300 million needs solid holds for a while. One bad hold and its done. Well lets pray for no hurricanes, meteors, or polar shifts then. Edited October 17, 2013 by Twerkdrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babz06 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Still have to wait out for the rest of the week but i'd say this is still on track to make atleast 250 m domestically. Hitting 300m would be harder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloneWars Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I'm going with $290 with Gravity like a lot of Potter films and Inception. It's like a trademark of WB films to reach $290M but not $300M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vc2002 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I wonder how many of those still believe this has a chance at 400m DOM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zackzack Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Most likely it will settle at $290M which would give Warner 2 big budget hits missing the $300M milestone domestically in 2013 (The other is MoS). Warner never gets a break post-Dark Knight/Harry Potter gold rush. I am optimistic it will hit $300M eventually. It may be an IMAX mainstay well into 2014. Also of interest: There is an IMAX short on the subject of space debris called SPACE JUNK. It almost serves as a viral for GRAVITY Edited October 18, 2013 by zackzack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
