Fake Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 DH2 would have passed $400m in its sleep had it had the minimal competition BD1 has had so far.Totally agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) hmm, What is this desire I see on this board to make it look like BD1 is disappointing or underwhelming at the box office? I don't even like Twilight, never read a single book or saw any movie, yet I notice this sort of bias against itBD1 is doing very well for a fourth installment and for the first part in a two parter.

John Marston Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 (edited) Good. DH1 had to face a $63m 5-day opener five days into its release. BD1 had such lofty competition it's actually shocking.Plus, this makes me more impressed with DH2's domestic performance. It managed to get a 2.24 multiplier after having an OW that was 20% higher than DH1 in admissions. Plus, it received STIFF competition.DH2 would have passed $400m in its sleep had it had the minimal competition BD1 has had so far.Harry Potter is the biggest franchise around. It is meant to be competition to other movies, other movies are not supposed to be competition to HP. People though CA was going to get eaten alive by HP Edited December 14, 2011 by Shriekofthevulture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think they'd stop now the series is over. Even threads about completely unrelated movies have been taken over with HP discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I have done no such thing, I only noticed DH2s sales seemed to be lagging behind the recent Twilight movies today. I posted shock at this because I was expecting the last Potter film to be huge on DVD. I am no DVD expert so don't blame me for trying to find some kind of excuse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
