narniadis Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Are you kidding me? Have you not looked at Skyfall's run? Ray pulled that comparison right out of his ass and you're delusional enough about how well liked Thor 2 was to believe him.http://boxofficemojo.com/showdowns/chart/?view=weekend&id=earlynovember.htmSkyfall fell 13.6% in its 3rd weekend, Thor 2 isn't even sniffing that in your biased dreams, it will probably pull reverse that number, 63.1% drop next weekend. Then Skyfall stayed strong throughout its late run and it even got an Oscar bump. Thor: the Mediocre world's most prestigious accolade would be something like a Kid's Choice award if it's lucky.You are ignorant if you assume that calendar always aligns as well. Skyfalls 3rd weekend was thanksgiving - hence the great hold - something that Thor doesn't get until week 4 they may have opened on similar dates but the calendar structure is vastly different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think what was meant in that comment was probably that Thor's 13% hold will come with a vastly smaller number than Skyfall's hold did. So instead of having a great hold off a 35M weekend, Thor will hold off a 15-17M weekend instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dashrendar44 Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 tbf it's Michael G. Scott so worst movie of the year is probably still a 3/5. I would say the contrary since Michael G. Scott likes everything most people find meh, The Counselor must be worse than diarrhea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I actually think he is right. And it could go beyond that. Thor 2 has way more better WOM than IM3 and it's doing crazy numbers for a November release. Thor 2 will keep going, and November will become a traditional date for Marvel. Regardless what reviews say, Thor 2's WOM is better than IM3. If IM3 could get $400m DOM, Thor 2 won't have problem getting to $250m+. You're delusional. It's not doing crazy numbers for a November release. It's doing less than 70% of all the Potters, Twilights, Bond, and a few other movies released in November. There's nothing crazy about an $85m in November - much less when it's in 3D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
