CA2: $10.2m Thursday Night (beats Thor2's $7.1m) | $100m+ coming?

[Dementeleus]

 

Fuck, man. Fuck.

 

[Shawn Robbins]

Fuck, man. Fuck.

 

 

You opened the door, my friend... and I graciously accepted the invitation.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Nah man. By now it should be like that condom you carry in your wallet since you were 15. You want to throw it away, but you feel like you share a history. Like you are friends.

Are you calling Shawn a virgin???

[ecstasy]

"At the most"? That seems odd. I'm fairly agnostic and I was assuming at a minimum it would do about the same.

 

Not you Tele of course. You had your finger on the pulse of the box office last night.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

BKB is surely disappointed.

[Spidey Freak]

Saw Wind Rises. Now I hate Frozen even more.

It's too early in the morning for this shit. LOL

[ChD]

Are you calling Shawn a virgin???

 

... or never use it.

There. Better?

Has there ever been an April release that beat every summer release's domestic gross?

[Spidey Freak]

The day will soon come for a new one... just not today.

 

Lol that was a tease. I thought you were going for something Marvel related.

[Shawn Robbins]

Nah. That'd be too predictable.

[Jack Nevada]

Zach doesn't carry his big belly as well as PSH did. Just look at Along Came Polly.

[ChD]

Anyway, on a totally related note. It will beat April OW record. Yay

[Fake]

Too early to assume it's going to happen, but definitely worth speculating at this point. I think we already had plenty of indicators to suggest a 2.75x multiplier (or higher). Judging by the reviews and WOM, it stands to reason this could be the third MCU flick to hit a 3x.

3x multiplier would be really something.... it's very rare for comic book sequels to get it nowadays.Well... one question comes to my mind.... is it that CA2 is overperforming, or is that CA undeperformed? CA came after people had spent so much money on TF3 and DH2 and then it had to compete with many major openers in its first few weeks. I wonder if CA could have grossed a good deal more if it had some room to breathe.

Captain America 2 is seen more as a sequel to the Avengers and not Cap 1.

I really don't see how. It is a total sequel to Cap 1. Have you seen it?

Hmm, that's a good question. My guess is that CA1 just behaved normally since it was nearly identical to Thor's numbers that same summer. It's so hard to compare anything pre-Avengers to these post-Avengers movies.

Bye bye Noah.
