Jessie Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 You can't always judge things from forums like this that are full of movie geeks and fanboys. If you asked most people who work in the movie industry, i bet the vast majority of them wouldn't of thought Godzilla would get anywhere close to a $95mil opening weekend.But im talking about people estimations in this forum so who cares what studio execs think. A lot of the times our predictions are closer than theirs anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey ghost Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 If DOFP and Cap 2 both gross way more than ASM2 can we agree that critic reviews matter? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I figured it would still be huge this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 If DOFP and Cap 2 both gross way more than ASM2 can we agree that critic reviews matter? I don't think it's the critics. It's the quality and how the auds responded to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmandeep Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 So will it get 250 million or more around 230 million? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 If DOFP and Cap 2 both gross way more than ASM2 can we agree that critic reviews matter? No. Both Cap 2 and DOFP had great trailers/hooks; offered something new to a sub-genre that's getting creatively tired and over-exposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quigley Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I must say, although I'd be very impressed if it achieved the biggest opening of the year, I'm actually more satisfied that its OW ended up between Cap 2 and TASM 2. (Below TASM 2 would've been disappointing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
