redfirebird2008 Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Even though I had plenty of reservations about the movie, I'm openly rooting for Godzilla to stomp and roar to $250M+ DOM. I really believe a sequel could iron out the kinks and deliver something even bigger/better. Legendary is planning a sequel, correct? I believe Legendary's head guy said WB will have 100% control going forward. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiantCALBears Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Drops have to be harsh, just cannot imagine this holding well after burning off OD year record demand. Let's be real here guys about this #, established franchises that supposedly did well in CA2, TASM2 could not reach it. Just incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamKendall Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 I believe Legendary's head guy said WB will have 100% control going forward. I believe I heard that as well. Sucks for Legendary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Man, my lowballing-tactic has really backfired thus far. Both this and Neighbors perform like gangbusters, and the one I thought would do well, Spidey, really disappoints. Good news is we're getting a Godzilla sequel sooner rather than later. Oh, and no more lowballing. Days of Future Past OW over 150m. Lets go! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
