Weekend Numbers: GOTG - 94M (PG 180) [25.5M Sunday (Spatula) Cancel the Godzilla legs!]

[#ED]

That would be twice as large as the biggest saturday decrease experienced by a MCU film. Is that good enough reason for you?

11.2M leading into 36M is also showing that it's more frontloaded than recent MCU movies. Is that logical reason for you?

[Chewy]

I'm trying to find an example to compare but nothing really comes to mind when we start talking increasing without previews(July/August).

 

We haven't had a comparably large opener in July/August that had the "previews" (since they're a post-2012 construct). Only opener over 80 was DM2 which opened mid-week

[#ED]

So let's say Tele is right, 29M Saturday.Still a -17% drop. That's still more than any recent MCU movie.

If it gets to RTH middle range it will be on par with CA2. I'am extremely confident this will cater well to families and Saturday should be good.

And so everyone is forced to come back down to Earth. The important thing to remember is that these are still incredible numbers.

This has been the story of 2014.

Not exactly down to Earth. Anything above 80M is still a breakout.

i'm worried i'll run out of likes before i make it to the last page , started reading an hour ago  (on page 18 now)

 

damn i don't think i'll be able to contain myself, i might have to ask a benevolent family member to buy me a ticket to go see the film

this weekend ....

 

until i see it , i'll be unconsolable 

 

 

         

 

and with all the crazy buzz and the weekend thread promising to be a fun ride !

[Kalel009Shel]

Nope 2014 is determined to give us another 90M 99M OW

Amen Augustus.... Katniss will obliterate them this year and there may be other breakouts left for 2014.

.. Also the Hobbit 3 should be huge as well

[Olive]

Come on , at least open over 90M.

[#ED]

If I had to take a huge guess, and eXtacy is right... GOTG should hit RTH's high end and stay on par with the rest of the MCU movies.With an 11.2M Thursday previews, I was not expecting anything less than 40M.

what if marvel released a film in each diferent month (January, february, march...) All OW records for Marvel?

[#ED]

Godzilla is easily had the worst legs this Summer. Horrible. 65% drop on memorial day weekend? Had it not been for the holiday, a 70% drop could have happened.

Disappointing, I was hoping it'd crack the top 12
