Fullbuster Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 I watched it and it was very enjoyable Not as good as the first JP but much better than JP2 and JP3, the dinos are really impressive and realistic, you could think they're not in CGI Can't wait to see its BO performance!

peludo Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 So we have a massive opening. I recognize that I had doubts with the billion WW. I did not think Jurassic franchise could rebound in this way. Glad to see this. With the numbers you are saying (+400m WW opening), billion should be locked. Great to see 3 billion films before half of the year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abra Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 (edited) PT: Jurassic World added 37 offshore markets on Thursday, lifting its international cume after two days to $65.6M. Universal Pictures and Legendary’s dinosaur franchise reboot kicked off in China, France and six smaller markets on Wednesday with $24.5M including previews. On Thursday, Indominous Rex & Co swallowed a further $41.6M, giving JW the No. 1 slot in all 45 markets where it has bowed. The Colin Trevorrow-helmed installment has scored the best opening day of the series in each of its plays. In the two-day frame, JW was at 13,551 theaters. It added 21 more markets today for a total of 66 territories going day-and-date with domestic where it is headed for a record June bow of $155M. http://deadline.com/2015/06/jurassic-world-international-box-office-launch-china-1201441355/ Edited June 12, 2015 by abra 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seduh Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 WOW, a $255-270 OS OW, HUGE! ! billion WW is locked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 WTF, it could even beat Harry Potter 8 WW OW. I had my doubts, but yes, billion is absolutely locked. To deny it is absurd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elessar Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Will it beat HP8 WW total, though? Thanks to US and China, i think the odds are pretty good. $900m OS is still a lot, though, which is what it will need to beat it. JW will kick ROTK out of the top 10 WW earners. Oh, well, it was inevitable due to how the WW market has grown... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keysersoze123 Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 JW will be stronger than AOU in developed markets. But AOU should be better in LA/Asia. it will need 800m+ OS to have a shot of beating AOU WW. Definitely possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO it's still the best movie in the Top 10 though, so that's something. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
