Lol completely agree with Shawn on Terminator Genysis... it just looks epicly bad... but I wouldn't be surprised if does even less than 90m.

[Avatree]

So the predictions for Avengers 2 are...$520m, $492m, $485m, and $479m.

Under 500m predictions are laughable

[filmnerdjamie]

Under 500m predictions are laughable

 

They were for The Dark Knight Rises too...

[CoolioD1]

pretty much lines up with my prediction of 480. already said before that anyone who thinks that's underwhelming is a lunatic.

[John Marston]

Not the se. Avengers made nearly 100m more so it TDK had less to drop from

Totally the same. You just don't like the comparison, but it's there. Too blinded by fanboyitos.

Guarantee there will be a WWW thread if it misses 500m.  But to me, the novelty of all the superheroes being in the same movie was spent with the last movie and the trailers look really generic and formulaic so I wouldn't be surprised if it does miss 500m.

People might just see it as a sequel to Iron Man 3. Hell, that movie was kinda already a sequel to Avengers itself. The GA seems Iron Man as the main character.

You think John Marston is a fanboy for The Avengers? You really don't come here much, do you?

[Deep Wang]

Just listen to it.  You can always find random predictions on the thread.  This is always worth a listen.

I'm not a fanboy but I share that opinion. Under 500 is absolutely nuts.

Maybe some people don't have 3 hours to spare?

I agree! Regardless of whether you like Avengers or not, the likelihood of the sequel decreasing by more than $75 million DOM is fairly low.

 

Under $500 million for Avengers 2 is something I would have predicted... if it were released last year or in 2011  both of those years will go down as doomsday for blockbusters in terms of doing $275 million+ DOM. 

 

In a year where American Sniper and Furious 7 could both do $350 million DOM roughly... and where SpongeBob 2 does $160 million+... and where Home, the film expected to do $50-60 million over its entire run, is on its way to $170-190 million... I can't predict anything less than $550 million.
