Cedarpoint1111 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 same number as last year so 150m is on target. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkelf Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Wow, I bet almost no one expected it to go that high. Great number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redfirebird2008 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 So the meltdowns were way too early. That's a great number. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Panda Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Much better than early projections. I'm curious to see where it goes from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 That is a phenomenal number. I did not see anyting to see this matching CF. Fewer shows and fewer sellouts and still hit the same previews. Probably OW will be in the same ballpark 150-160M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasanahmad Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 (edited) Same OW crowd as last year. the question is not the OW, the question is legs and how part 1 being slower than first 2 movies and more talk than action than first 2 will affect the repeat value. This might be the Iron Man 3 of the Franchise Edited November 21, 2014 by Hasan Ahmad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray G Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 The die-hards are the ones who go to Thursday previews, and the die-hards are still there. Not surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAR Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Great number. Remarkably consistent franchise. I imagine Lionsgate is calling Suzanne Collins saying are you sure you don't have another story to tell in the Panem world? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Binoche Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 This is good. And with no Frozen-sized behemoth opening on Wednesday, it should do well over Thanksgiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elcuervo Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I never took those $15 million estimates seriously. Let's see how WOM affects its legs. It seems pretty positive so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen didn't affect CF. Frozen originally appealed primarily to kids/families in its opening weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
