John Marston Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 All the kids saw Spidey last weekend. not sure what this means. Family audiences usually are the ones still driving these comic book films in later weekends as the fans are the ones that rush out and see it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 wait what, Spider-Man 3 made 58m second weekend. Obviously from a much bigger opening No, Spider-Man 3 made 38M. Search your feelings. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrPink Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) So... I hope you people all have Skype accounts because tonight is going to be the first official Skype Weekend Box Office Audio Chat hosted by #ED and me! When is it? 8PM PST/10PM CST/11PM EST How many people can fit? Technically 25! What if this ruins the weekend thread? I have the full intention of still posting so I can whore some likes! What will we talk about? My love life and Christopher Nolan. Maybe some numbers too. What if I don't have a Skype account? It's very easy to create, you can download it or it's already integrated with your Windows 8 ready machine. What if I don't have a Webcam/mic? Well....shit. You and your clique is ruining box office! Sorry Edited May 9, 2014 by MrPink 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PDC1987 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I think that Friday is a projection based on the 1st Friday to 2nd Friday drops for similar titles and for some reason they're ignoring the film's actual weekday grosses. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I hope ASM2 hits those numbers, but I'm slightly doubting it. I'm not slightly doubting, I'm strongly doubting. I don't think the people at the studios who leak these "projections" to the media really understand the box office as well as most of the posters on this site. If it actually manages a 230% increase, that would be incredible. But I strongly doubt it happens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing that's making me doubt is that Sony lies so fucking much. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#ED Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 You do NOT NEED a WEBCAM. A Mic is good enough. ______ Are we back to making Summer numbers up? It seems like every year, Variety, THR, Deadline all just get numbers out of a hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) In May of 2004, Mean Girls jumped almost 500% on Friday. I have no idea what was going on with the box office a decade ago. http://boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=daily&id=meangirls.htm So this would be by far the biggest jump on a Friday, from a film that opened in the first weekend of May, since Mean Girls in 2004.
