Baumer's Summer 2014 Game: Top 7 Domestic Opening Weekends / Top 5 Worldwide Weekends

[JJ-8]

to be honest when i did my research, i never for 1 ever saw Dragon 2 making into the worldwide top 5 weekends.  even if made a big start domestically (which it didn't anyway but that is irrelevant).  it's weekends were all spread out... 

 

There were 3 obvious films (TASM2, Godzilla and DOFP) which were all known to be opening day and date in most countries.  and at least 2 of those films were looking for an OW (at the time) domestic of > 100m which didn't happen .  TF4 was also pretty obvious.  only question mark was maleficent which i had picked purely on the fact it also was opening day and date... my research on the other contenders including GOTG, Apes etc, showed a much larger spread of dates and yes i used IMDB for most of the dates.

 

To be honest this in my mind was a rather easy chart and the only choice which was a questionable one in the 5 i picked was maleficent.  The other 4 all made logical sense due to the fact they were opening day and date everywhere.

TASM2 was opening day and date in most countries? Really? Because I swear most countries released it on the April 18 and April 25 weekends.

Yeah your right on that one but that still made sense due to the large opening in the US.
