Robertron Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 256M away, should get it by Sunday.That's just incredible. THE AVENGERS, of all films, could potentially be the fastest film to a billion.Only a few here thought it would reach that for a final total - it will be roughly 60-70% of its final gross WW :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 in 2013, will any movie pass 1 billion besides The Hobbit: There and Back Again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Catching Fire has an outside chance. Aside from that it's probably limited to the summer animated crop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for animated films I only know of Monsters University but 1 billion seems like a stretch for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloneWars Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 in 2013, will any movie pass 1 billion besides The Hobbit: There and Back Again?Maybe Iron Man3. It will be in 3D. I see $400M Dom, min, and TA might add enough OS boost in popularity for that character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I doubt Iron Man 3. 800m is where I see that ending up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for animated films I only know of Monsters University but 1 billion seems like a stretch for thatIf we're being real than CF will likely more than double THG's OS take the way Twilight to New Moon did, so that puts CF at around $500m OS. Now $500m DOM may be a stretch for it but it's by no means whatsoever impossible considering THG made 400, so yeah there's certainly a chance for CF to hit a bil.

MovieMan89 Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 yeah but that likely will not happen and is way too optimistic. Any others?But remember THG also has China coming up now. It's OS take will likely get near the $270m mark. CF could go as high as $550m OS with a Twilight-New Moon multiplier. And why wouldn't it have a similar OS jump as that? The books are becoming far more popular now OS than they were before THG came out and it's now starting to catch up to the popularity it has in the US in a lot of countries. So CF might only need to do about as well as THG or a little better DOM to hit a billion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you've learned nothing from THG's success? There's every reason for it to have a similar OS increase as Twilight to NM. I mean for starters it had a similar OS gross as Twilight.

Fake Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 - Twilight was a comparatively smaller hit in markets like UK/Australia and there was much room for the sequel to grow (very much like US) and NM increased 2.5x in those markets. THG was already a huge hit in these markets 1.5x increase for CF will be excellent.- NM had some crazy jumps in markets like Brazil and Russia (~5x increases)... it would be very difficult for CF to repeat that.NM had a 2.07x increase OS overall. CF will do well to get 1.6-1.7x. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 800M, maybe 850M for CF. I don't see it hitting 1B WW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Begins, Twilight, Pirates, Ice Age, and Shrek being some examples. THG wasn't massive OS meaning there's plenty of room for it to grow if it was well received, and I definitely think it was.
