baumer Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 (edited) When making your predictions, please be aware that grosses only count in this game from May 1st (early start times for movies) until Labour Day. So for example, Grim brought up a good point. ASM2 opens this weekend internationally. Anything made before the game starts, does not count towards international grosses. Thank you. Changed my mind.

Jake Gittes Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 That seems like a needless complication to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 19, 2014 Author Share Posted April 19, 2014 Sorry. But grosses count from start of the game till the end of the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 That... makes sense, and creates an interesting wrinkle. Let me make sure I've got this right, Baumer: let's say that TASM2 makes $100m between now and the beginning of the game, and $1 billion overall. Its BSG gross would be $900m... right?

baumer Posted April 19, 2014 Author Share Posted April 19, 2014 Yes, that is correct. Just as grosses end LD, which makes you think twice about films like GOTG, EX3 and TMNT (August openers), you also have to think about Spidey's staggered release prior to the game.

Filmovie Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Well, so in absolutely every question in which the OS number of TASM2 is involved we shouldn't consider numbers achieved before May 2nd! Understood! Thanks for the information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 25, 2014 Author Share Posted April 25, 2014 Anything it grosses after Sunday will count, because technically, that will be opening week. Don't worry I'll make this very clear to everyone come next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ-8 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Forgetting the fact that TASM 2 has under performed to date anyway, no idea why people are predicting 800m to 900m for TASM2 ww. That means they must be thinking that TASM2 is gonna make 1b or more (expecting TASM2 os to be > 100m after this weekend. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 WHATEVER IS REPORTED TODAY AS THE INTERNATIONAL GROSS, WILL BE TAKEN OFF OF ASM2'S TOTAL AT THE END OF THE SUMMER. ASM2'S GROSS IS WHATEVER IT MAKES GOING FORWARD. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
