Weekend Estimates: Thor TDW 86.1M, Ender 10.25, Free Birds 11.2, Grav 8.4, BG 11.3, Last Vegas 11.1

Recommended Posts

People were predicting as high as 150m OW for Hobbit pre-release. And once the numbers came out, it suddenly became "it was never realistic to expect 100M+ OW in December".

 

People are already predicting 150m+ or even 200m+ OW for SW7 and Aavatar 2. And I bet by the time SW7/A2 opens, once the numbers comes out to be much much lower, say even below 100M, it suddenly will again become "it was never realistic to expect 100M+ OW in December".

 

This is how the forums works. No offense to TDW or anyone or any movie, just a matter of fact.

 

Hack, "It was even unrealistic to expect STID open higher than ST09" under the similar THEORY. Nuff said.  :rolleyes:

Hindsight is always 20-20. So its easy to say after a release. While predicting ahead fanboyism causes you to get ahead of yourself. That is why we saw 1.5B WW+ for Hobbit and 1B for Thor.

 

That is why I dont see SW7 making more than Sith UNADJUSTED. I dont see it doing admission figures of prequels for several reasons. One SW does not have the same aura that Prequels carried over from original trilogy. Plus prequels aged badly(even sith aint that great) bcos acting is just HORRIBLE. Similarly I dont see it make more than 600-700M OS. I have seen folks predicting 2B WW for SW7 which is just crazy.

 

Similary Avatar/Avengers sequel will also drop. Its inevitable as the 1st flicks are too big.

That's not bad, though lower than the minimum that I thought it would at least do (which was 85M). It could still get there if it blows up Saturday.

 

But kinda embarrassing for those predicting >100M.

 

How dare you? Those predictions were fueled by people's hopes and dreams.

 

I should know. I was one of them.  :unsure:

I'm sorry, I'm thoroughly confused.Apart from BKB and a few others, I think most people expected Thor to open in the range it did (I remember arguing very hard that it's not going to open to around $100M).$82M is a pretty solid number for a superhero that doesn't have "man" in the name. Lots of franchises dream of numbers like this.
