Well, it will still probably have a lower OW than Hunger Games...

70 is awesome.  Too many people had unrealistic expectations, so they had it at 75-80, some at 90.

[fmpro]

It will open very close to the First with that number

[Heretic]

It seems as if this ALWAYS happens for big openers now. Starts out decent, then there's a huge meltdown, and then the final number is better than expected.

70.5M?Why the fuck were people upset again?

 

150m OW is still way below expected numbers from fans.

At least now the diehards can come down from the ledge.

[redfirebird2008]

It seems as if this ALWAYS happens for big openers now. Starts out decent, then there's a huge meltdown, and then the final number is better than expected. 

 

But in this case the final number is still at least $5m below what people predicted. Some were even over by $10-15m. Then there were the loonies that were over by $20m.

[elcuervo]

150m OW is still way below expected numbers from fans.

 

Well, yeah. Those expectations are astronomical.

 

THG is a juggernaut, regardless.

STFU right now
