filmnerdjamie Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Is a film like AS really going to jumo 50% on Saturday? Is it a big family film? I would think not. Until I saw families at my screening. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 You'd have been called insane after MJ1's OW that it would top GoTG. And it did. But GoTG is now going to end up being THIRD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stripe Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Nothing is wrong with GotG being third. At the begining of the year only few thought it would finsih in the top10, including me. I thought it wouldn't reach 200M DOM, so for me it's the second great story of 2014, BO wise. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing wrong with that. It's easily the 2nd biggest BO story of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Nothing wrong with that. It's easily the 2nd biggest BO story of the year. what about transformers 300m gross in china? (apparently it actually grossed 350m) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

antovolk Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) Forbes decided to break the news anyway without waiting for LGF's announcement/numbers. Yay.

picores Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Another great number for American Sniper. 50m looks definitely the floor this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druv10 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 (edited) what about transformers 300m gross in china? (apparently it actually grossed 350m) Most Chinese posters believed it would obliterate the record which it did. Frozen's(250M) Japanese run would be another contender.

John Harris Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 You'd have been called insane after MJ1's OW that it would top GoTG. And it did. But GoTG is now going to end up being THIRD. Congrats to MJ1 for taking the 2014 DOM crown, but it doesn't seem right that AS ends up being counted as a 2014 movie when it only played in, what, 4 theaters in 2014? Sure, that should make it eligible for the Oscars, but since like 1% of its final DOM BO will have actually been earned in CY 2014, it doesn't make sense to me that it should be listed under 2014 as far as its BO. Four theaters is more like an early pre-screening than an actual release! I realize that a number of movies released in late December have earned the majority of their bucks in the next year and still counted for their Release Year (like Titanic), but AS could earn 99% of its money in 2015. That makes it a 2015 movie, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peludo Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Nothing wrong with that. It's easily the 2nd biggest BO story of the year. If we talk about US, sure. But if we talk WW there have been more incredible runs like Frozen in Japan, 8 Apellidos Vascos in Spain or Roaring Currents in South Korea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Around 190M post the 2nd weekend is looking possible. If it reaches that number, then #1 of 2014 would be a very realistic target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
