I'm saying that our community has always been better at extrapolating than any media outlet (which includes DHD). I was agreeing with the essence of your remark that DHD was underpredicting. DHD/Nikki/Variety/etc. all do a poor job week-after-week, year-after-year at guessing at weekend #s when they're given Friday figures. We're much better at it.

lilmac Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 The "sci" in sci-fi is "science", I definitely wouldn't put the rapture under that heading, whether you believe in it or not. Fantasy maybe... I guess you do believe in the rapture then. post-Tribulation rapture, why yes I do. Not fantasy to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klingo Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Making about $13m more isn't destroying. A non-3D movie led by a heroine which wasn't well known until last year in the movies is destroying a well known Marvel hero. Yes that is destroying. Tony Stark had the suit and 3D to make that much money, Katniss only had a bow. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She got chewed up and spit out. 1.2b WW vs. 861m. Edited February 16, 2014 by ECSTASY 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That means a drop from last week though smaller.) Edited February 16, 2014 by 23IsEverywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes that is destroying. Tony Stark had the suit and 3D to make that much money, Katniss only had a bow. Lets look at this from a different angle. Marvel's 8th at best (pre movies) most popular comic book character played by an actor whose career almost fell apart just a few years (well closer to a decade) ago was in a Superhero movie that included more PTSD than all other super hero movies combined. This movie came within 13M of a sequel to a 400M movie that is based off of a popular book series and a better movie.

A well known American hero being destroyed by a girl with a bow in American domestic boxoffice. Which the American audience was more impressed? A girl with a bow or the man with the suit?

That means a drop from last week though smaller.)Always hard to extrapolate when it's single digits. Being off as little as 200k on a single day could make a lot of a difference. If Frozen goes up a little on Friday and Rth is slightly low then it looks possible to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which the American audience was more impressed? A girl with a bow or the man with the suit? Sure American audience. But why just limit this to America. Movies are more global than ever. But we are talking about box office though. Right? And you really can't say Katniss was unknown. She is based on a hugely popular set of books. I won't argue about it though. You can have it, lol. When people say things like Catching Fire destroyed IM3 like IM3 didn't make any money I can't help but point out the overall numbers.

Yeah, looking at just DOM #s is shortsighted with the way the global box office is today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Look at WW and take away 3D from IM3. That's the most accurate comparison, imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
