darkelf Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Big Friday for both Neighbors and TASM2. Especially knowing we still have half more Friday to go... Okay, okay, it's less than half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Last week NF had spidey at 35m, HR at 37, Rth at 33-35 and V at 33-36.So apart from HR they didn't really overestimate it.Question is what were there projections for Thor 2 And Cap 2 second Fridays?

Kvikk Lunsj Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I've crapped out on my SOTM question. I suck once again in that game. I forget to do the two SOTM so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep Wang Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 sorry, It totally collapse on weekdays, so a 235% is big but it's friday number is $11,5. 12 years ago SM1 made $19.5 on it's second friday.The number isn't the problem, it's the jump. SM1 got to that $19.5 by jumping 166.6% which is nowhere near this crazy 220% or whatever. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviedweeb Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Just saw Chef. It was great and the crowd went nuts over it. This may be the surprise hit of the summer. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ-8 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 The number isn't the problem, it's the jump. SM1 got to that $19.5 by jumping 166.6% which is nowhere near this crazy 220% or whatever.I would think SM3 is the better comparison. It had a 190% fri jump. When u are talking the much lower grosses of TASM2 then 220% isn't really worlds apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 This whole waiting for numbers and getting irritated by delays and wrong reports is like the "Jeopardy theme" mini-scene from TASM 2. And Nikki et al is Colm Feore. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dementeleus Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I'm feeling cynical at the moment. Sony will do anything to get those weekend estimates over 40m... because going from a 90-something weekend to a 40-something weekend looks a hell of a lot better to the eyes than a 30-something weekend. Then watch actuals drop 3-4m. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 11.5M? Wait, what? Why did they give us Saturday projection for Spidey instead of Friday's? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Jeff Sneider is gloating about calling Neighbors over TASM2. I thought everyone on this forum pretty much called this last weekend. Jeff Sneider @TheInSneider 1m NEIGHBORS... called it! Remember that @TheWrap was the first outlet to predict THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 would finish 2nd this weekend. I think we called it months ago. lol 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ando918 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I'm planning on seeing Captain America 2 on Sunday. This will be a good decision, yes? I'm usually not a big fan of comic book movies or deafening visual effects spectacles, but the 90% approval rating on RT and good word of mouth makes me believe that it has a good script that can appeal to adults. Heard that much of the film feels like a Soviet conspiracy thriller rather than a little kids movie. If this is correct, I will go see it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
