a2k Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Thor 2 had a lower Thur (7.1) so ASM2 would have to have much bigger Fri-Sat bump. 40%+ instead of 30% True, it becomes 41% bump for ASM2 compared to Thor 2's 29% 7.1 + 24.8 + 32(+29%) 8.7 + 26.3 + 37(+41%) So recalculating, Thor 2 like performance gives 8.7 + 26.3 + 33.9 + 23 = 91.9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orestes Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 QUIK QUESTIONIs Men In Black in the same deal as SpiderMan, where Sony has to pump out movies to stop the rights going back to Marvel I don't think so, unless they have a really long window. There was 10 years between 2 and 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 QUIK QUESTIONIs Men In Black in the same deal as SpiderMan, where Sony has to pump out movies to stop the rights going back to Marvel 10 years between MIB2 and MIB3....I'm gonna say "no". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJG Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 10 years between MIB2 and MIB3....I'm gonna say "no".So they own MIB 100%.And marvel only made 3mil off the first 2 movies.Honestly it's probably Avi Arads fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ando918 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Forget dollars: Just imagine how many fewer tickets this is selling than Raimi's Spider-Man 2. I know moviegoing ain't what it used to be, but let's reminiscence about the golden days (10 years ago)! Yeah, adjust for population increase in U.S. / Canada as well. I would guess that the population has boomed 5% in the past decade. Combine that with IMAX screens, and Raimi's Spider-Man 2 would have made over 460 million domestic adjusted for the year 2014. Also, it had a 4 times multiplier and Roger Ebert named it his #3 best film of 2004, up there alongside his art house Oscar pick films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXtacy Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 If this behaves like Spider Man 3 it will land at around 83.5m based on 33m OD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAtGender Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Whatever deal is involved with Sony having the MiB film rights, it well predates any connection Marvel had to the series. I wonder if the Lowell Cunningham gets any kickback from the films, now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orestes Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Damn you eXtacy, before I was content with TASM2 merely opening under Cap2, but now I really kinda want it to open under Thor2. :/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 If this behaves like Spider Man 3 it will land at around 83.5m based on 33m OD 200m would be a squeaker with 83.5m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Multipliers are always better for mid-week releases. Would have opened to around $120m with a Friday release, which would be a 3.1 multiplier. Great for the genre, but not quite SM1 level (3.5).

kayumanggi Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Regardless of how the film series goes, we at least know there's an endless supply of wonderful Spider-Man gifs to keep us entertained for years to come. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I have a bit of a hard time computing the reality of a Spidey movie opening under a Captain America movie. With the early OS reactions (or lack thereof) and competitions ahead, I know that legs won't be pretty, but I always thought that OW should be mostly unaffected. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonytr87 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 The way it's trending on Twitter you'd think it would have a 100m opening day. I've been told that the kids in junior high and high school these days use Twitter more than Facebook. If there's any demographic that wouldn't be put off by a second Spider-man series so soon after the last, it's them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 The way it's trending on Twitter you'd think it would have a 100m opening day. I haven't time to look at Twitter yet. So it's busy recently? Cause last time I checked, I found that Twitter activity was strangely low for a big movie opening early OS in many territories. Tumblr, which is pretty much a Marvel-filled land, has been on the quieter side as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
