Ando918 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 If ASM2 opens with a crappy 80-85 OW as is expected, the total domestic numbers for both How to Train Your Dragon 2 and Maleficient should probably be raised. Since Pixar does not have a movie this summer, and I also think Transformers 4 looks weak (audiences will be tired of it), those 2 family friendly movies are now looking very, very strong.

CaptainJackSparrow Posted May 2, 2014 Author Share Posted May 2, 2014 If this opens to just 80 mil then that's great news for Godzilla and X Men. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandrew Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 These new movies don't give a shit about uncle ben. He died over chocolate milk, and denis leary's death is the one Peter's all guilt up about, not uncle ben's. Hell, he never did find the guy who shot him. I forgot how that was totally dropped. Maybe they're saving it and in the third one the shooter will get a job at oscorp and fall into a vat of sand... 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) I don't think TASM had bad WOM, it was just not great enough, to generate excitement and make the first trilogy forgotten.

Ando918 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 I'm still not sold on Godzilla being a hit at the U.S. box office. Overseas? Maybe. I look at Pacific Rim or other monster movies who haven't done spectacularly, and wonder just how much U.S. summer audiences (teenage boys) care about stories from 1950. I'm not sold on its box office strength yet, and think it could only end up making 150 domestic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 Hmm, 8.7M. I was expecting more than that. But it's still a respectable number I guess. Shouldn't we already get some vague and drunkenly Friday projections by now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolioD1 Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 (edited) ain't nobody gonna laugh I'm still mad. Speaking of sheens, Michael Sheen as Doctor Emcee Baron Helmut Schnitzelnazi Strangelove or whatever that character experimenting on Electro was called woulda been awesome. Giving us some Tron Legacy realness or something. Edited May 2, 2014 by CoolioD1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Accursed Arachnid!™ Posted May 2, 2014 Share Posted May 2, 2014 My honest view on TASM has always been this. Had it been the first film in 2002 I would have been happier with it. But the first Raimi film was so good that TASM wasn't a fresh enough take to prove it had a reason to exist. It's like they took the first film and went, "well, we can take Coke and improve it with New Coke"...New Coke wasn't bad, it may have even been slightly better, but it wasn't so much better that most wanted the original replaced with it. From WIkipedia's article on New Coke: The results of the taste tests were strong – the sweeter mixture overwhelmingly beat both regular Coke and Pepsi. Then tasters were asked if they would buy and drink it if itwere Coca-Cola. Most said yes, they would, although it would take some getting used to. A small minority, about 10–12%, felt angry and alienated at the very thought, saying that they might stop drinking Coke altogether. Their presence in focus groups tended to skew results in a more negative direction as they exerted indirect peer pressure on other participants.[6] TASM is the film version of New Coke. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
