Wknd Estimates: Nolan = 50M | BH6 = 56M+(pg 72) (who cares, our forum lives!)

Is that your son's first movie in a theater?

I was 8 the first time I got in.

No I took him to LEGO MOVIE and DOLPHIN TALE 2 earlier.

Getting him used to being in theaters. He's well behaved... Um for the most part

[CJohn]

This weekend is an exact repeat of the 2nd weekend of June.

 

One movie people were expecting huge numbers from will open with 49M, and another from which people were expecting 60-70M will open with 57M. 

[SuperBatman]

Hopefully both Rise today will be seeing both Movies today.

Movietickets.com Top 5 ticket sales:

 

Interstellar: 40%

Big Hero 6: 38%

Birdman: 2%

Gone Girl: 2%

Mockingjay Part 1: 2%

[Lordmandeep]

But that would involve paying full price at a first-run theater. I'm sure he'd prefer to catch it in the dollar theaters... more affordable.

Yes I have more money then ever but I refuse to pay more then 10 dollars for a film

I really thought 22JS would be bigger.

 

I never thought BH6 would be bigger though. I've never seen the hype and anticipation for it. I actually thought there was a good chance it would open under HTTYD2.

[Quigley]

I know this is completely insignificant but Big Hero 6 ($15.8M) scored a higher opening day than Frozen ($15.2M), and a WDAS record.

[Kvikk Lunsj]

But of course, just like TDKR is better than Lawrence Of Arabia.

 

IMDB ratings are a Nolanite joke

Or Guardians of Galaxy ahead of A Clockwork Orange

Toy Story 3 ahead of  M and Grave of the Fireflies 

Inglourious Basterds  ahead of 2001: A Space Odyssey

Batman Begns ahead of Metropolis

Elephant Man and Blade Runner only in the top 140.

Gran Torino, Warrior,  V for Vendetta, and How to Train Your Dragon  making the list and being in the top 150.

For Fuck sakes Sin City is rated higher then There Will Be Blood 

 

IMDB is the biggest joke list out there.

Not the same as Frozen opened midweek. It's first Friday was 26M+.

Not the same as Frozen opened midweek. It's first Friday was 26M+. 

 

It was also Thanksgiving week so nothing really correlates.

[Quigley]

Based on historical comparisons (Incredibles, Monsters Inc., Wreck-It Ralph), Big Hero 6 will cross $200M in North America

I never said it were the same persons. I had 22JS right where it opened, but was expecting BH6 to be much bigger.

Relatively meaningless information here, but I was expecting 22JS, HTTYD2, and Interstellar to open bigger, and BH6 to open smaller.
