Elessar Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) I think the studio can live with lower takings for one movie when they have two movies (MJ). Edited December 18, 2014 by Elessar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Good, I still don't even know why this trilogy exists. It was specifically created to force you to waste your time in this thread 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) I think Guru has summarized it very well. <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> will likely happen unless the casual audiences are waiting until the weekend.

CJohn Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 It was moved to the On The Lot forum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Not a great number, I was expecting around 27M as that would have meant that it wasn't too frontloaded. 24.4M would probably lead to around 90M (+/- 5M either direction) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 So looks like Alvin and the Chipmunks 4 has moved to KFP3's old release date of December 23, 2015. Alvin 4 against Star Wars 7 will try to do an Alvin 2 against Avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goffe Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 nterstellar and MJ are the only films that failed to meet expectations and Interstellar was our own fault. Xmen, Cap 2 and GOTG all over performed imo simply because they delivered on quality. Looking back on this year, there was no big event movies this year so it's not like we should have expected big break outs. most films earned pretty much what was expected of them X-Men met the low end of the predictions 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 If my calculator is correct, that's a 25% drop for Mockingjay. Compared to CF's 18%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> 26% drop, looks like Hobbit 3 OD having an effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 My sister just told me all her friends really didn't like MJ1 and that it could have been done in 15 minutes, lol. She'll watch MJ2, though. But it's no surprise she skipped this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I'm a few pages behind, but ROTK was more frontloaded than FOTR or TTT. It didn't have particularly great legs post-holidays. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 BotFA sold roughly as many tickets as Divergent did on OD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 (edited) I'm a few pages behind, but ROTK was more frontloaded than FOTR or TTT. It didn't have particularly great legs post-holidays. ROTK managed to reach 300M by the time the holidays were done, with a start like that late legs were not the biggest concern for anyone I guess. BotFA sold roughly as many tickets as Divergent did on OD. And yet it will end up with almost double Divergent's final total, and 3 times Divergent's WW total.

John Marston Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 this actually one of the most frontloaded midnights to opening day ratio ever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
