haha Cjohn was being sarcastic...unless you were being sarcastic as well

 

I was

No no no, 350m is huge. HUGE. Especially off a 130m production budget. While I'm sure they wanted more, Lionsgate will be rolling in their CF money.

I was kidding

Who's comparing this to TA? BBallman's meme was about how wrong early numbers can be. Or at least that's what I thought his intention was. Personally, I'm not gonna do a meltdown until I see studio estimate under 60m. And probably not even then, since I'm not really invested in CF's success.

 

Same here.

haha yeah that's what I thought

RIP Jennifer Lawrence's career. Lionsgate will cancel the last 2 movies.

It was a valiant effort

But those Avengers numbers were at 12:45, it's now past 5pm on the West Coast.

[Heretic]

Oh wellz. There's always Divergent.

[grey ghost]

Lmao for days if this opens below THG.

or under IM2.

[Dragon]

I gotta drive to Boston first thing in the morning tomorrow. When I get there am I gonna find the city in flames and aDIM and k1stpierre leading a band of cannibal rapists or something?

You'd find it if you got here now.

[Jandrew]

Going ahead and seeing this tonight since i cant concentrate anyway. Theaters busy, sold out till 930, imax too. Still lol at Variety, even the pessimists were optimistic.

So Catching Fire making 155M this weekend will be a disappointment?

And everyone knew those Avengers numbers were off, as they were watching the sellouts pile up

[Jonwo]

Wasn't Chambers of Secrets lower than The first Potter? To me, that's a better comparison than Twilight which has a more rabid fan base, I wouldn't worry about it too much, Lionsgate will be pleased how it has performed overseas although they're only getting a portion of the revenue as they sold most of the OS rights,

[ecstasy]

Now Tele you know its too early for that. Lets see what the 7pm looks like

[Mojoguy]

We all agree now that RDJ as Iron Man will be top dog at the boxoffice this year right?

[alisson23]

How is it gonna make 350m?

 

By fudging.

No no, with legs of day of thanksgiving, christmas, new year, day of the President, Valentines Day, Easter and Memorial day.

[rockNrollaDIM]

If this really opens under 140m. I don't even. Full blown meltdown.

[John Marston]

So Catching Fire making 155M this weekend will be a disappointment?

Compared to even industry expectations. Yes.

[redfirebird2008]

Anyone watch that show House of Cards on Netflix? Started it a few days ago and it's pretty damn good.
