Monday Numbers (Actuals: Hunger Games-$3.4m, FRZ-$2.4m, Thor2-$0.53m, Homefront-$0.503m)

Decent holds for both CF and Frozen IMO

 

So today in film theory I learned four things:

 

1. Frozen is a Pixar film and ever since Pixar was bought about Disney, Disney hasn't done any of its own animation. (I actually corrected my teacher on this one.)

2. Thor: The Dark World is overperforming. Marvel expected 150M total gross.

3. Spirited Away wouldn't have won the Oscar if it weren't for Disney.

4. Philomena is currently playing in more theaters than Catching Fire.

Honestly, these posts are just starting to piss me off... How does that teacher have a fucking job?!

TF1 finished with $317m. CoTBP with $305m. Sorry, but no. 

[Plain Old Tele]

Tele is Telemachos right?  I don't know him that well.  Hopefully that will change!

 

Baumer and I go back to 2002 (early days of BOM), that's my roll dawg.  :-D

 

 

Shawn I know.  DAR, not yet (I like you put yourself on the list, nice).  

 

Yo, wassup?

[Jake Gittes]

COTBP sold about as many tickets as the first THG, though. Transformers 1 isn't far behind, either.

TF1 adjust to 373m and COTBP adjust to 407m. Sorry, try again.

[Punishment]

If Catching Fire finishes with $420m, then that would mean a 2.65 multiplier...virtually identical to THG's. Absolutely stunning and unprecedented for a sequel to an already enormous film.

Try again? CoTBP came out in 2003. Not 2012. So you try again. You are out of your mind if you think it would've done $407m in today's market. Cute, though.

I would rather watch a Disney cartoon than a Pixar cartoon. They have a charm about them that Pixar can't match.

+1 now, thanks to you.

That's funny, I would say exactly the opposite.

[Jake Gittes]

Who cares what COTBP would have done in today's market. But in 2003, it was a hit as enormous as THG was in 2012. 

[Leyla]

speaking of 2003 & cartoons

Finding Nemo is still remains 1 of the few cartoons I actually saw on the big screen

again good old times

It was pretty great year with both POTC 1 & FN

Huh? Why wouldn't it have? It was one of the more loved blockbuster in the last 25 years.

[iceroll]

COTBP: 6.54x multiplier

DMC: 3.13x multiplier

 

Transformers: 4.52x multiplier

Transformers 2: 3.69x multiplier

 

THG: 2.70x multiplier

CF: 2.60-2.85x multiplier

 

Yeah, great comparisons Goffe Luvs 1D.

The best of Disney trumps the best of Pixar.

[Plain Old Tele]

I hadn't seen NEMO since it was in theaters.... until a couple months ago, when Tele Jr started watching it incessantly. Now I've seen it a few dozen times.

What?! No, not for me. At all.
