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

[grey ghost]

Nikki doesn't over or under predict, she just doesn't predict very well.  It could go either way right now.

Not a record.Did she ever learn her lesson.Never underestimate the West Coast when it comes to MCU.

FUCK AN AGENTS OF SHIELD THREAD ON ANOTHER BOARD SPOILED SOMETHING CAP 2 RELATED TO MEGODDAMN IT 

Sorry, man.There should be a law.

[Blankments]

Happy to see this is doing better than expected; not happy to know I have no chance to see it until tomorrow night

[grim22]

Looking at showtimes around me, they seem heavily skewed to 2D. There are 3D showings, but they are outnumbered 2:1 by 2D showings.

Good. Fuck 3D.

[Blankments]

Bye bye Noah.

Noah's gonna drop better than most expect here. Mostly because I've noticed a lot of theaters have put Cap 2 in limited 2D showings (one theater by me has 14 3D shows and only 4 2D shows). If Cap 2 sells out those shows, then Noah is the second best option

[AdamKendall]

Good. Fuck 3D.

The preview showing last night forced 3D on us ... and it was horrible.  Marvel films 3D is BRUTAL ... every 3D conversion they do simply makes the image murkier ... there's really little to no 'benefit' to the 3D.  Simply a ploy to get more $$$.

 

Opening scenes in Avengers and Cap 3 are nearly unwatchable at times due to it.  (of course, could be partially theater issues as well with presentation, I don't knowl) Thank God the story was so awesome IMO to make up for that.

Marvel needs to bring in James Cameron and whoever handled the 3D on avatar as consultants that was the only movie I thought was worth it to see in 3D.

[a2k]

IM3 od was 15.6m + 15.6 * 3.42(53.3m) = 68.9m

Thor 2 was 7.1m + 7.1 * 3.49(24.8m) = 31.9m

 

According to Nikki CA2 is 10.2 + 2.43*10.2(24.8m) = 35m od

That would be a DoS like od : 8.8m + 8.8 * 2.54(22.4m) = 31.2m, towards an 85m ow or 90m with a better saturday.

Marvel is to cheap for James Cameron. So they use person who handled the 3D in Alice in Wonderland.

You can argue that Cap 2's third act is a generic action romp. But that doesn't counter my point that it is more tightly focused and less wasting than TDK's third act.

 

Cap 2 didn't accelerate one of its hero's biggest villains into suddenly going crazy and hijacking the third act of the movie for an epilogue that only serves to kill that villain off before anything meaningful happens. Nolan created, showed, and disposed of Two-Face in a few scenes. It was a complete waste of potential and utility and it's only made worse by how Nolan takes the consequences of that ending and throws it away for his eight-year time skip for TDKR.

 

I respect your opinion, but still i don't see it that way.

You could argue about waste of potential, but in TDK at least i never wished the movie to finish. With CATWS, during those final scenes i was hoping/wishing/praying for the nonsense CGI to stop.

[Blankments]

Shouldn't waste your time with AOS shit   You'll think better next time.

 

It's become a pretty good show recently...

 

Also, I know everyone here only cares about Cap, but Divergent passed 100M

 

Yeah, I only care about Cap as well

I know I purposely saw this in 2D because every conversion Marvel has done has been pretty bad. and I honestly don't feel I missed a thing.

Hollywood Reporter http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/box-office-captain-america-winter-693851

"Captain America 2 is projected to gross $37m or more on Friday, including $10.2 million earned Thursday night."

 

That would make it 10.2m + 10.2*2.62(26.8m) = 37m
