Dementeleus Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Wtf... What happened to fucking 25m? I sense the birth of a great new meme. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iceroll Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Oh no, you mean the movie won't gross its budget for its OW? This franchise is a gigantic profit-making machine. It could be doing half the numbers, and it would still be very profitable for Lionsgate. We can chuckle about it underperforming our expectations, but make no mistake, Lionsgate is perfectly happy with their swimming pools of cash.

CJohn Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Well if this opens to about 130M, I don't expect it to at all. MJ2 won't even crack the 100M OW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Mockingjay 2 can go back up to Catching Fire numbers but it won't go higher than that so it would be sad if people make crazy expectations 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockNrollaDIM Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Well in other news I got rejected from that job I was interviewing for, only took them 4 weeks to let me know. And then the next day my work asked me if I want to join a project where I would have to move to Singapore for a year. And I have until Monday to decide. So. Yeah. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seduh Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 it's a lower number than expected, expect around $45 on friday to a $62 OD, then a $48 saturday and a $32 sunday for a $142 OW. It's a drop from CF but that was sort of expected, also it will fall harder so i expect around $350 finish. OS the number will be very close to CF. Part 2 will rebound but not so much domestic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ando918 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 As someone who has not read THG books and is not a major fan of this series, I can say that I really have no interest in seeing this movie....but I do have a lot of interest in seeing Mockingjay Part 2 in theaters. So if this movie under-performs and only totals 350 domestic, feel free to blame moviegoers like me. I was the same way with The Harry Potter series....saw Goblet of Fire and Deathly Hallows 2 in theaters, but never felt the buzz to see the other ones in theaters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 What would have to be the weekend numbers for Lionsgate to decide to convert MockingJay 2 to 3D? I would think below 130M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
