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

There's no way a press release puts out that sort of information without announcing the actual numbers first.

Or the studio prompted, and this has nothing to do with the actual data

I would laugh hard if they put out some kind of press release claiming to have the biggest admissions weekend for 2013. Talk about an obscure record.

[Shawn Robbins]

I would SO love it if a studio tries to come out and say it took an admissions record.

Just checking

Shawn did the right thing. He didn't want to come off sounding like a bitter Nolanite.

"Bitter Nolanite" would probably be the best representation of the forum as a whole though.

Hey, it's definitely got the YA admissions record!

If so, then we can officially reposition all the records to (rightfully) put Gone with the Wind back in first place as biggest movie of all-time.

"Lionsgate announces they've broken the record for biggest opening for a Lionsgate movie."

Even that might be very close. DH2 adjusted for inflation and 3D is around $156m.

I have a question?Wasn't it almost assumed that cf would sell more tickets then im3 opening weekend?Not that big a deal?

Allow me to channel Noctis for a moment: Potter came out in the middle of summer when matinee business was stronger. It still wins.

[grey ghost]

"Um, it's clearly been overestimated fucktards." would've been the way to go imo.

 

I prefer, "I would say, take your obvious fudge and shove it up your asses. But you're already full of shit...so".

In conclusion TDK still has the most admissions in the last 10 years...

Ha, not a record! Take that McConaughey! 

 

Umm....

Fine fine.... YA OW in November!

 

(btw, I just realized that if CF drops it basically fucks me out of a bonus in the Winter Game).

The bigger deal would be if it falls under IM3 admissions, which it will if Friday/Saturday stay flat and Sunday drops $5m.

Um nope.

Don't let a TA or Spider-Man fan hear you say that.

It actually doesn't... (Avengers).

 

Sorry, Ed.
