Why do we even care about Cinemascore again?

 

We only care when a loved film gets a strong Cinemascore

Lots of people here were going. "Twilight made this much money , so HG will easily blow past it "

12%? I thought the first one was 61/39 female male?

Can't remember, but I'm quoting Lionsgate on that 12%.

One more reason why LG is dancing a jig right now:

Overseas, CATCHING FIRE scorched theaters w/ $64M--more than doubling the original HUNGER GAMES.

 

Amazing

They're bad at math. 41% is 5% more than 39%.

And it will.  Just not at midnight or OD, but the OW will be more than 142 and the total will certainly be more than 300.

Amazing

It's not amazing . It's expected. It opened pretty much everywhere including China. In fact bass on early numbers CF will be making somewhere in the 400s overseas and not the. 500-600m fans were predicting Edited November 23, 2013 by John Marston

boxofficemojo.com is down, boxoffice.com is incredibly slow and also down.

 

Everybody wants to know how Catching Fire did.

I wish I could like Tele's titles for this thread. They have been out of this world.

No surprise at the OS figures, I think we can all agree that was one area where the numbers could only go up.

Male audience increased big 12%.

It increased 2%........ Hunger Games1 - 61% female 39% male Hunger Games 2 - 59% female 41% maleUse math next time.

[Empire]

Really happy to wake up to a 70.5m #.

[druv10]

The only reason it's disappointing is because people were being unrealistic.

 

Part of the problem was crazy high tracking by MTC and the 200M OW club by Iceroll, these sky-rocketed the expectations but overall 70.5M is great.

You're laughing now, but you might be crying when you see what he does for ASM2 next year.

The fact it was expected does not make it less amazing

I take a small bit of umbrage with this.  

 

When Bolt runs a 9.6 in the 100 meter dash, we all expect him to do that.  Does that it make it any less amazing?  Just because you expect the numbers to increase internationally, doesn't make it any less amazing or impressive.
