On what page are Rth's last Apes and TF4 #? Can someone please add the page # to the heading, or maybe add his posts to page 1?

Even with good reviews I don't see the appeal of seeing it

 

You will when those Oscar/GG/BAFTAS/etc noms star pouring in

[Tau Ceti]

Ya. Damn, TF4 is continuing to fall hard. I guess there's no such thing as "review proof" when you get to the fourth movie in a franchise.

Once again Maleficent with one of the best holds while TF4 with a crap one. It's going to struggle to hit 250M and it certainly isn't touching Cap or Lego.

The easiest thing is to go to his member page and check his last post if no one has put it in the thread title.

Dang, Transformers really got boned if those early numbers hold up. Looks like this is officially the summer of no $250M+ grossers. Unsurprisingly.

 

DOTPOTA or GOTG could possibly breakout and hit 250M+. 

[redgarlic68]

That's a really good hold for Earth to Echo...

[John Marston]

lol, is this a joke. Neither is reaching 250m. 

[Empire]

lol, is this a joke. Neither is reaching 250m. 

It isn't highly likely, but they could. 

[John Marston]

It isn't highly likely, but they could. 

 

 

why would GOTG make Captain America 2 numbers? And even with a 70m opening for Apes 250m is a complete longshot. That would be better legs than the first one despite more competition.

Thank you Mr. positivity.

I just don't think you can 100% say both won't until we see how DOTPOTA legs are and we see what GOTG does OW and what legs it has. 

[MovieMan89]

If DOTPOA has a 75m or so it could definitely hit 250. All it needs is the legs of the first one, which I don't think is unreasonable to expect given the caliber of the film. But is is this summer though, so who knows.

Not unless you really mix it up and make it new and fresh, a la F&F. However, if Walker hadn't died, and they progressed to 8 and 9, it would start decreasing too. It's just not possible to maintain that level of pace and consistency when it comes to gross.

This...movie is great and hopefully will have great legs.

Transformers a lock to hit a billion ... Damn lol

Man Maleficent really in a horse race now with Oz domestically. Will be at nearly the same gross through the same point after this weekend.

[La Binoche]

Begin Again's expansion was too wide, too quick. Dunno what Harvey was thinking. Should been 500 screens this w/e, 1,000 the next. 

[Kalel009Shel]

Congrats to Bay and Transformers.... Nothing can stop it now from hitting 1billion.

 How far will it go all? 1.08, 1.1B? 1.2+B?? Damn

It might have something to do with there only being one wide release this weekend maybe? There are 3 next weekend and it might have been harder to expand more then.
