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

[Blackout]

How much does an IMAX release usually add to a movie's gross?

[K1stpierre]

94M??? I hope that's true!!!I think this has a great chance at having 3X multiplier. A lot of great WOM, fantastic reviews. Not to mention there isn't much going against it. Ninja turtles are a maybe, The Giver nope, Expendables nope, if I stay nope......

Rank*	Title	Friday 8/1 (Estimates)	Saturday 8/2 (Estimates)	Sunday 8/3 (Estimates)	Monday 8/4
1	GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY Buena Vista 4,080	$37,800,000 -- / $9,265 $37,800,000 / 1	$31,000,000 -18% / $7,598 $68,800,000 / 2	$25,200,000 -18.7% / $6,176 $94,000,000 / 3

 

 

Saturday was overestimated, it won't rise much with an estimated 18.7% Sun drop.

 

 

Yeah, not much play there to go higher with that drop. 

 

A fantastic number and a great Saturday increase for a summer movie.

[Kvikk Lunsj]

Which means, WB really should get Batman vs Superman the fuck away from Captain America 3 now.

WB will just move to the untitled Marvel movie in July. 

[picores]

The Saturday retention is still phenomenal and the Sunday drop plausible. I hope it stays over Godzilla. Amazing OW, shocker of the year. The saddest summer ever had one last shot.

[KATCH-2D2]

One small stumbling block - I think it only gets IMAX for one week -  it loses it's screens to The Turtles

I don't think it'd matter much, family audience probably prefer to see it in a cheaper format anyway.

 

But I'd LOVE to see it in IMAX, there isn't one in my city. Poor me.

GOTG is #41 on IMDb's Top 250. Sandwiched between Modern Times and Sunset Blvd. The end must be near.

 

40. Modern Times (1936)8.5    

41. Guardians of the Galaxy (2014) 8.5

 42. Sunset Blvd. (1950) 8.5

The irony of that placing! You couldn't make this shit up at how bizarre this is.

[eXtacy]

This has stopped Summer being incredibly boring and breathed some life back into the forums

 

Guardians up to 37 on IMDb now

AKA Dr. Strange starring Joaquin Phoenix.

Lists and placings like that on the IMDB are really :lol: . IMDB though is ruled by fanboys and people who only watch and rate new movies so it's expected.

Is Joaquin Phoenix confirmed because that would be fantastic

[FTF]

Hmm...surprised that Sat # is a couple mil less than rth's late update last night/early this morning.Regardless, $94m+ ow is pretty incredible and well done Guardians.

When asked about it a representative straight up smiled and walked away from the interview, so it's almost definitely the case.

[SuperBatman]

Isn't that going to be Dr strange.

[miketheavenger]

Hmm...surprised that Sat # is a couple mil less than rth's late update last night/early this morning.Regardless, $95m+ ow is pretty incredible and well done Guardians.

It's not quite $95m, but I know what you mean.

[TalismanRing]

No, no confirmation - but no denying either...

Not for the films quality though.

 

GOTG and DOFP top IM3 in EVERY WAY except the money it made. HTTYD2 is better than DM2 and MU and Godzilla kicks WWZ's zombies arse.

[FTF]

Oh yeah haha for some reason I thought the estimate was $96m :/

Learn your colors Chewy!

Hmmm. I;m a girl, and just the other day, my cousin, who is also a girl, and I had a spat over colors. I said something like, I like the pinkish one, and she goes "It's fuschia," and I was like, "It's still fucking pinkish!"
