Don't let baumer hear you.

Meh. I should go post it in the BD2 domestic thread

[Robertron]

So apparently it opened to USD12.7m.Still disappointed. Was expecting an increase to at least AU13.5m

[Ball Lightning]

So around AU$12.5-$12.6..So do we think legs will be better/worse for BD2 compared with BD1?

[RthDeadWov]

Must remember that 12.5m is disappointing LOL, I get it some franchises later films do better, hoyts/StudioCanal dont' think its disappointing not sure what they were projection final cume to be last week I was thinking 24-28m.If you take say HP & Twilight series the multipliers are similar (HP later films)HPDH2 based on previous few, after OWe you could have said bet 50.6-53m and avg 51.4m and it came in at 52.6 (2% above average, in range)T:BD1 (based on NM & Ecl)29m-30.1m avg of 29.6m came in at 28.8m (3% below avg, less than range)LOTR:ROTK (based on 1st 2) avg 51m came in at 49.3 (3% below avg)T:DSOTM 36.8-42.9 avg 39.8 came in at 37.5 (6% below avg)Apply same as above to T:BD2 and you get range 29.7-31m avg 30.3m, so if you assumed at this point between 3-6% below avg 28.4-29.3msee if it gets anywhere near that

Argo and intouchables still going strong.....

[Ball Lightning]

Skyfall midnights tonight at work, not very big though, currently just over 20 people

[BenedictL11]

They sure are. Argo should pass $10M total even with Skyfall's breakout.

Today is Wednesday?!?!FUCK YES!!I thought it was only Tuesday.

I wonder if Skyfall will go nuts here and approach $50m or just get around $40m give or take a few million.Is there some kind of special booking on the two VMAX screens at Event George St tomorrow? There's nothing scheduled to start between 2pm and 9.30pm. There should be 5.30pm and 6pm screenings but there's nothing for Skyfall or anything else.

[Robertron]

I'm thinking 13.5m/41m

[RthDeadWov]

Yeah think its going to have to be at least that.If Sfall here performs similar to other Bond films(at least last few) against the UK we'd be looking to do 50-60m if uk does 100m :blink:normally 50-60% of UK market with Bond

[Ball Lightning]

I'm going with $13m/48m.For now

The only Sfall screenings where premiere last Friday night State Theatre and George Street last Monday.BD2 is still in both Vmax tonight except for 630pm on one screen has a preview of another film.

No way it does 50 million.

I'm referring to Thursday night. The VMAX screens at George Street have nothing scheduled between 2pm and 9:30pm. Just seems strange. I had wanted to go to a 6-6:30 session.

Skyfall opened on Wednesday?

[Fake]

There is a way. And it is called 'following the trend'....

[DeeCee]

Skyfall opened on Wednesday?

No. Tomorrow, on Thursday. There was one screening per cinema on Monday night for members of the Event/Greater Union Cinebuzz Club. Probably at other chains as well.

[Robertron]

Following the typical uk trend, we'd be looking at an OW of over or around AUD17m.. Wtf?!
