Not sure what the final total is.

 

It is for certain gotten number 3 spot for 2014 releases.

 

 

However not sure if Katniss is as well?

Yep comparing Matrix Reloaded with Sniper is useless in adjusted numbers.

Just sayin...

I ve seen more and more people on this board talking in adjusted numbers, well, keep doing so because that s where the truth almost lies.

10 years + of inflation nullifies any bo comparisons IMO.

I heard Clit Wood

I feel like only a series of "amazed" gifs describes this opening. And even that probably isn't enough.

[JJ-8]

But it went wide in 2015.

 

so Basically, in summary:

 

American Sniper will be counted as a 2014 film (ie. in the 2014 grosses) BUT it's Opening Weekend is in the 2015 chart.

If that Sunday number holds, that would truly be amazing.

Speaking of TRUE PATRIOTISM I watched Rocky IV last night. aka movie that ended the cold war.

It's a 2014 release.

 

It's OW wide is in 2015 so it's the first movie that opens to 90M in 2015. Because doesn't it have the January OW record? They didn't say anything about the december OW record...

I hope so, 50 percent chance.

[Asyulus]

And this is a 2014 movie, not 2015

It's total gross will be listed in 2014.

I'm sure a few people have mentioned this, but biggest non-franchise opening weekend ever. Insane.

Such confusion with the years! It's quite funny to watch.

Fun fact, WB owns 4 of the Top 5 R-rated openers ever, including the biggest three: Matrix 2, Sniper, Hangover 2 and 300.

[CJohn]

A rated-R adult war drama just opened with 90.2M in the middle of January. Let that sink in.

If I can change and you change, then we all can change.

HEARTS ON FIRE!!!! STRONG DESIRE!!!!!

[Cmasterclay]

So close to taking down the Matrix Reloaded's R-Rated record. Just a million short. And people thought 50 Shades was the only movie with a chance to do it!

[Avatree]

I'm sure a few people have mentioned this, but biggest non-franchise opening weekend ever. Insane.

Spider-Man - 114.8M

Harry Potter - 90.3M

The Hunger Games - 152.5M

Alice in Wonderland - 116.1M

Iron Man - 98.6M

There are some others depending on what you count as a franchise.

It would be a lot more weird, IMO, if it was a PG13 YA adaptation.

It's total gross will be listed in 2014. 

 

I know but the opening weekend will be in 2015, so the 90M is first opening of 90+ in 2015.
