1.1 billion for TF4?

[wileECoyote]

Awesome for Guardians. 250M looking good as long as it doesn't crash next weekend.

 

2.65 multiplier looks doable.

Not that great for Boyhood, its PTA crashes by 50% every time it expands. 50m is obviously dead, it might struggle to reach 25m now.

1.1 billion for TF4?

Depends on if it still has territories left to open. If not, then likely no chance for 1.1 billion since it slowed down considerably overseas.

[miketheavenger]

Was there any doubt after those China numbers rolled in?   Could be the only 1B WW in 2014.

I think Hobbit 3 will do it as well.

[GiantCALBears]

Boyhood is a serious BP threat no? That's a hefty increase.Think The Hurt Locker but w/ better BO & a better movie?

Sex Tape actually with a decent hold this weekend.

[Dragon]

Guardian was adorable. B+

[SuperBatman]

Funny when some people say Guardians wouldn't even make it past 100. Well it's going to do that in 4 days.

[ACSlater]

Biggest total weekend in August ever!

 

Full updated chart: #GuardiansOfTheGalaxy leads box office to $180M+. Biggest AUG wknd in history! http://bit.ly/w1WuEF -GiteshPandya

From the weekend predictions thread

 

GotG ($100m, seriously)

 

I think I came closest to what it actually made. I did go a little over, but at least, I was somewhat close.

Some people live in their own bubble and don't understand the real world, so not surprising.

It tripled it's theaters - it's to be expected. It might max out with 900-1200 theaters but will probably continue to do good business on the art house circuit for the next couple of months.  It would have done more around awards time but it might benefit for being in the spotlight alone for awhile like GBH and by the time  Awards come around it will be on DVD and all the voters can see it that way.

This Summer has been big a disappointment boxoffice-wise, but definitely not quality-wise. There's no film in Summer 2013 that was better than Edge of Tomorrow, Godzilla (Haters can hate), X-Men: DOFP, How To Train Your Dragon 2, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes and now Guardians of the Galaxy! I hope Sin City 2 will be the next one.

 

Tbh, I thought Man of Steel was great, but otherwise I agree.

YES and YES.

 

Box Office gross can suck it. My enjoyment comes first. This summer has been glorious from where I'm sitting.

[Godzilla]

I think Get On Up will hold very well for the rest of its run. I can see a sub 20% drop for next weekend. If it follows The Help legs it'll do $90M. It might hold a bit better cause the OW is very low.

[BadAtGender]

1.1 billion for TF4?

 

Unlikely. Its run in China is over. DOM isn't going to see much more than another $5m and most other territories are similarly late in their run.

 

It only has Spain, Japan, and Venezuela to open in. While Japan was quite good for Dark of the Moon ($54m), TF4 is probably going to come in under that mark. Spain earned about $11m, and Venezuela between $2 and $3m. (Though for all of them, exchange rates may have varied significantly since 2011.) So even if it matched TF3's grosses for those three countries, that's still less than $70m. The remaining 25m or so would need to come from elsewhere in the world.
