Chewy Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Oh my, God! Ijack predicted like what? $130M versus our $160-$180M? IJACK MAY HAVE ACTUALLY BEEN RIGHT. Don't worry, he's predicting 400M again for the next Spider-Man sequel. So this is a one time thing 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 We sorta did just get hard numbers. Rth has never failed us and he just told us the matinees performed very similar to DH1. So basically we know it has to kick DH1's ass at night to have any chance of reaching the kind of numbers people are hoping for today (ie $50m+ Friday excluding previews). not just that but it goes with Gitesh was saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChD Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Uh yes, 12m trailer views in 1 week for the THIRD trailer, the movie was consistently in the top 10 on imdb for the last 3 months. Probably most fans of the first movie watched that trailer at least 5 times a day in order to get the best orgasm they ever had... so no surprise it has 12M views.

CaptainJackSparrow Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 No lies if CF opens below THG or just increases hardlyIt would be the biggest box office suprise to me since IM2 opening.I predicted 128 mil for Iron Man 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviefanatic Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 What did he predict OS? I can't remember 850 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitik Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 So ijack predicted 132m. This can't be right? remember folks, Rth didn't say it was doing DH1 numbers, just that it was behaving more like DH1 than THG. big difference I think 150 is still the absolute minimum here.

John Marston Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Isn't it weird that acclaimed sequels like Catching Fire and Star Trek 2 decrease while negatively reviewed sequels like DMC and Transformers 2 increase? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 You know, I enjoyed watching MOS, so obviously I'm somewhat in the minority, but this is completely true.(That being said, I don't feel particularly interested in watching it all again.)You are not in the minority at all. It is just that the actual minority is more vocal. I loved MoS, watched it 5 times in theaters itself. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How? DH1 had 24M midnights. How can it reach 150M BY BEHAVING THE SAME AS DEATHLY HALLOWS 1. Teach me your math, PLEASE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, because general audiences don't really give a shit what critics think of these blockbusters. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 I will say there is some evidence around me to suggest something is not right. If this film was suppose to be in there with the greatest openers like TA and TDK for Friday Business it should have started selling out like crazy by now in theaters around me. However 5:30 pm and 6:00 pm shows are going in not sold out. Screen count here in Canada is large but not bigger then past openers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
