Nov 22-24 #s CF: $158,074,286 actual | Dark Knight triumphant after all

Wow. Wall Street really had crazy expectations then. Guess this forum's members are not the only people who ratchet up expectations.

 

That should stop people from trying to play revisionist history. It wasn't just crazy people on here that were predicting much bigger numbers for the film. Investors actually opened their wallets because they were confident in a much bigger opening.

Shitty weather = power outages.

 

and the American Music Awards along with Catching Fire.

I wonder what gave Lionsgate that impression?

155 mil is in no way bad. what looks bad is that 6 mil drop from the estimates LG, that's just embarrassing man

[tonytr87]

How is anything between 155-160 million bad? If you think that, that's your fault, not the movie's. 

[Dementeleus]

All these lame BKB impersonations. BKB uses words like Marvel and Avengers as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline.

 

Come on, Stingray, throw away that chicken-shit gun. You don't just want to pull a trigger. Put the knife in me and look me in the eye and see what's going on in there when you turn it.

[Shawn Robbins]

Who said it's back down to $155m?

Sunday  number s a lot lower than projected

Who said it's back down to $155m?

RTH

Could this be the actual? from Deadline.com

 

"Shares are -7.7% at mid-day, and that’s partly due to the opening weekend performance of Hunger Games: Catching Fire which grossed $160.6M at domestic box offices and $147M internationally"

[ecstasy]

RTH

 

 

Um he didn't give that number.

[CJohn]

Who said it's back down to $155m?

Rth said Sunday was just 32-33M, while Lionsgate estimated a 37M+ Sunday.

Stayed over 160m, How?

RTH

 

Thanks, just double checking.

[grey ghost]

155 m OW for CF.

 

The nationwide Nolanite boycott must've worked.

 

Oops, I've said too much.

[ecstasy]

Why are people saying it's 155m? LOL

 

Rth only gave a Sunday estimate  of 32-33m.

 

See how rumors get started.

That would be funny if it is. Short of TDKR by $200,000. THG peeps would lose their minds if that happens. "Why didn't you fudge it?!!!!?"

[CloneWars]

Man, 2014 is going to be a shitty year. No film will likely hit $400M. We might not even get a $150M OW.

That figure, I think, comes from a Lionsgate e-mail that still says "estimates". It sent out very early this morning, clearly another move to make sure media report it over $160m before the actual results come in lower.

 

EDIT: Never mind, that e-mail still says $161.125m.
