CJohn Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 STID and PR also caused some pretty huge meltdowns. Nothing I've seen is going to top Scream 4, though. Scream 4 OW was legendary on BOM. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I'm expecting GOTG to have numbers around 55M OW / 175M Dom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miketheavenger Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I seriously doubt it. Guardians of the galaxy is not exactly your typical Marvel movie. I think most people are expecting moderate numbers out of it. There are only a few loonies you think it will do a typical Marvel movie gross. You're probably right. But if it fails to crack $100m domestically, it will still be a disappointment for most people. But I realize that disappointment =/= meltdown.

CJohn Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 GotG will do typical Marvel numbers for first movies (Thor and CA). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#ED Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 GotG will do typical Marvel numbers for first movies (Thor and CA). Should do less than both. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Anything under Hulk's total for GotG would be a fully legitimate dissapointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJohn Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Should do less than both. It won't. It is gonna do fine. People are too worried about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattrek Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 That was hardly a meltdown.when crystal skull had a 28 million dollar opening day or whatever it was there were meltdowns of epic proportions and I was the leader of those meltdowns. I have not seen a meltdown like that seriously since then. If anyone can think of one please let me know.Transformers 3's OD was pretty bad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I can totally see GOTG doing about 140m. Which is still good for that type of film (Sci fi comedy) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I can totally see GOTG doing about 140m. Which is still good for that type of film (Sci fi comedy) I wouldn't call it a sci-fi comedy. It's a sci-fi adventure with more elements of comedy than usual. It's still closer to Thor and Cap than movies like Paul. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattrek Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Scre4m takes the cake though as far as I can remember. People expected it's OD to make more then it did on it's entire weekend. That was epic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tawasal Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Looking at weekly drops r key for summer films. U r referring to weekend drops. I think that is what is saving the weekend drops and is getting it to 100m. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
