That's great for Transformers.

Great? How? That means it might not make $250M. Which is a bad drop.

[Fancyarcher]

Hobbit is the only certain one for a big OW. We'll see how big Apes, TMNT, and GoTG's OWs are.

 

Hobbit's opening weekend won't even be that big really. Around 70 to 80m.

54% picked Optimus Prime as their favorite Autobot, while 41% picked Bumblebee.

 

 

i didn't know people had a favorite autobot

[ecstasy]

lol y'all remember Pointman v the Potterheads that summer on BOM? Good times

 

Yes. Where is Pointman? His other movie was Tron Legacy. How can we forget that guy?

You're jumping the gun, dude.

If WB hypes it up as basically the final film Peter Jackson is doing in the LoTR verse then it'll have a big OW.

[CJohn]

Dat Mark Wahlberg increased interest.

 

I think we found a new leading man for our franchise

He is the new Dwayne Johnson.

Hobbit 3.

 

 

Not many, but here are some outside contenders:Apes, Guardians, Big Hero 6, Interstellar, Exodus, and Hobbit 3. Not saying they will all cross 90 mil (though hopefully Hobbit will), the rest I see over 60 to 80 mil.

 

 

Hobbit is the only certain one for a big OW. We'll see how big Apes, TMNT, and GoTG's OWs are.

 

Thanks everybody.

What did Hobbit 2 open to? In the 70s range, right? I don't see how it'll jump to 90M+ with the same release pattern. Finale rush factor I guess, but still, that's a big jump.

LOL It doesn't mean that at all. Should have good walk up business in addition to the pre sales.

Banned I believe

[ecstasy]

Banned I believe

 

Did he have another name? I used to think he was Hands of Illumination on this forum.

Finale factor + Smaug was much better received than the first one, no?

Yeah. Also, Hobbit 3 is opening on a Wed. I see the ow in 60s.

Edit: or even 50s.

Hobbit 3 opens Wednesday. OW will be lower due to that.

Oh and I forgot Interstellar.

[Mulder]

Seeing the competition Godzilla's OW might be in the top 5 of the year as well. ((If this happens it'll be 5 though.))

[Captain Craig]

What? Whenever there is more than one of something people are going to have a favorite.

That's just human nature. 

[Sam]

I wouldn't know. My friends refused to see it with me after watching the first one. So...And I haven't heard much about it from my people last year. It was all about Oscar movies, CF and Frozen.

Oh. Did not know that. Nevermind then...
