Listen to ShawnMR on Movie Moan's Summer 2015 Box Office Predictions Spectacular

[MrFanaticGuy34]

JW is gonna be the next movie to "disappoint."

 Box office-wise???

[grey ghost]

The only movies they all came kind of close to were AOU and Rogue Nation.

Damn, this was made back in May. How did you know this was going to happen?

It did disappoint.

For me.

Ok....But...do you expect better for JW2?

 

Better in quality-wise?

It'd be hard to go anywhere but up, creatively speaking.

(Yes yes, I know my prediction for it was wildly off.)

Ok. There's always a case when the sequel can be better than the first one....they just need something new & good to offer.

 

Now to the next Avengers sequel, Infinity War P1.

 

What's gonna happen next time? Are we gonna overpredict, underpredict or realisticly predict the correct DOM total it should finish?

Are there any blockbusters that didn't dissapoint you? The ones you were mostly pleased with.

I haven't seen 'em all this summer. You know I loved FURY ROAD. Really enjoyed TRAINWRECK and INSIDE OUT. I'm looking forward to MI5, hope to see it tonight.

Tele's review:

Eh, it was ok. Could have been better. No Tom Hardy sucks. Grade: C

After 2nd though, no Michelle Monaghan is a plus. C+

I just found this thread.

And now, finally...

I've heard the voice of baumer, that sweet sweet siren song of box office.

My life is complete.

I also don't have three hours so, I don't know what you actually said for most of it. But I'm sure I approve!

Marvel at Shawn's accuracy on 'Terminator: Genysis'!

Scratch your head on how Ed won the 'Jurassic World' round but was still $400 million off!

Cheer for Jamie as he starts slow but makes a late charge for possible victory.

And laugh at me if you want for only getting one round right.  Just bear in mind............I beat everyone in the world on that one:)

Here's why any sub-500 prediction for TA2 is nuts - it would mean it does less than 80% of the business of the first movie. Here are some superhero blockbuster sequels that dropped more than 20% from their predecessor:

 

ASM (did 77% of SM3's gross)

ASM 2 (did 77% of ASM's grsss)

XMO: W (did 76% of XM3's gross)

B&R (did 58% of BF's gross)

 

Notice a pattern? They're all either terrible or following movies that were terrible/had mixed reactions. TA2 is much more likely to fall in the TDKR, SM2, IM2 range (i.e. 83-98% of their predecessor's gross). Hell, even SM3 did 90% of SM2's box office. Does anyone seriously think TA2 will have a worse reception than SM3?
