Sun#s pg 230...Wknd Est: DOFP: 91M, Godzilla - 31.4M, Blended - 14.2M , NB - 13.9M [NO SPOILERS]

Your opinion of course. I haven't seen it. I'm just saying studios announce sequels then back out all the time.

 

 

 

 

 

On a completely unrelated note, I just noticed SR is at 6.2 on IMDb. That's 0.1 lower than SM3. Now, I can stand SM3 but...

 

 

It's because people remember SM3 (even if it's not in a good way), and no one remembers SR. Nothing can kill public reception of a movie like boredom.

Mark my word: TA2 Will NOT open any less than what TA did.. It's just not happening because TA is just THAT popular.. You watch..

[The Stingray]

First Atletico loses at the last minute and then Godzilla goes down like a lead balloon...

 

[Fancyarcher]

Yeah, sure it is.. That's why I'm seeing GODZILLA and DOTFP both underperforming compared to the numbers dished out.. Face it: It was a bummer of a Memorial Day Weekend this time out.. Better luck next Memorial Day weekend which is sure to be a hit with TA2..

 

Desperate BKB is desperate.

What else is opening that weekend?

Imagine it is 2002 and you witnessed a historial year in box office and the rise of cgi.  The Mummy Returns, Pearl Harbor, Shrek, Hannibal, Planet of the Apes, Jurassic Park 3, Rush Hour 2 and American Pie 2 were all contributing to something special.  The year then ends with Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings.  2002 comes alone and Spider-man rewrites the box office.  Attack of the Clones then does 80/110 and struggles for 300.  that is it.  no more hope of Star Wars reinventing the cinema.  Star Wars forever just another number.  The box office is a cruel cold world and just be happy that DOFP is at least a good movie and not a ripoff.

and then the next year Matrix Reloaded followed by Revolutions =(

I hope it gets bigger in the morning.

It usually does around the time you wake up.

People remember B&R and it's well below 4. Also, SR made a half billion less at the WW box office and has nearly as many votes as SM3 209k vs 269k. The hate ratio is higher for SR. 4.6% "one" votes to 4% for SM3. That's not all apathy, that's a lot of hate.

On the contrary, I think it is all of YOU who are desperate right now for these numbers to be wrong and that you all hope Nikki is wrong and DOTFP made more than what it really did..

You predicted this would do The Wolverine numbers.Ha...fucking...ha.You lose. Edited May 25, 2014 by kowhite

Compared to what you predicted, the movie is overperforming.

 

Out by a mile.. 75M for 3 day and 90M for 4 days..

 

For the 3-day weekend, you're likely off by at least ten million.

Personally I'm fine with that number. Could it be bigger sure, but X-Men has never really been as popular something like The Avengers.

 

At least it increased from First Class.

Anyways, wouldn't that be something if nothing does hit 100m OW this summer? If Transformers underperforms it will probably happen.

[kowhite]

You all predicted it would make more than what it did.. TOUCHE..  

Ah, the Pyrrhic victory. You must be so proud.

[Accursed Arachnid!™]

WTH does "DOTFP" stand for? Days of the Future Past? Sounds like a bad soap opera.

People remember B&R because its considered to be the worst comic book movie ever made.

 At this point, I'm rooting for no summer movie to hit it.

Scott, Jean, Wolverine love trilogy confirmed.

 I am.. It's a moral victory..

There is a world where this comment makes sense.Only one lives in this world...and his name is BKB.

[DeeCee]

I just realised I have The Call sitting on the DVR. I'm going to watch it. I hope the baumer who watched this was the baumer who watched DOFP and not Twilight.
