kitik Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 It has already passed Thor2. So what is the weekend looking like? A 1.77M Wednesday should mean a weekend right in the 14-16M range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilmac Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 http://www.boxofficemojo.com/news/?id=3826&p=.htm These numbers are too optimistic. $290 for Xmen?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalismanRing Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 http://www.boxofficemojo.com/news/?id=3826&p=.htm These numbers are too optimistic. $290 for Xmen?? I'd believe that more if it was backed up with better reasoning. Yes X3 adjusts to that now + #D but that was coming off the very popular X2 and the series was at the height of it's popularity. None of the X-Men films since then have come close -. even the very well reviewed ones. I could see a 50% jump but over 100% from First Class?

Captain Craig Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 With $207.1 million, 'Captain America' sequel has now earned more than 'Thor 2' at the domestic box office: I like it. I like it. I like it. Still wish Thor2 had gotten closer to $225m though. Plus Cap2 is only losing 200 screens in it's 4th week which puts it's theater count still well in excess of 3K screens. Hoping with the right hold and some underperforming debuts the longshot of a 4-peat might still yet happen. #thatdivergentaffct 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talkie Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 I enjoyed Thor 2 but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. The people have spoken. I found Thor 2 mediocre and liked it less with subsequent viewings. The second time I saw it in the theater I found myself wishing desperately for a remote so that I could fast-forward most of the earthbound stuff. It simply doesn't hold up. Had it been as good as Cap 2 it would have done better against the competition it faced. Like most Marvel films, the audience for TDW skewed male and thus it could have fared better against the female-centric THG sequel if it had been better received by fans. I'm beginning to think that Marvel should shift its release strategy and lay permanent claim to the first weekend of April since CATWS has done so well there. Easter won't always fall so late in the year, but the loss of the holiday weekend could be offset by the relative lack of competition. Of course that would change once other studios decide that the time frame could be lucrative for their films, as well. For now it's a good release date and Marvel's presence might possibly scare off direct competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
