Rudolf Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 It is hard to imagine a year with no $1b movies, when even Batman and James Bond comfortably make it. But chances are high 2013 could be such a year. W'ill see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I can see Hobbit 2 dropping from Hobbit 1 if it drops to $270m in the US and a drop in Europe too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jessie Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Hobbit 2 will hit 1b I also think IM3 has a great chance to. Transformers 3 managed to increase about 75% overseas from TF2, despite coming of so-say the worst movie sequel of all time. If IM3 follows that pattern then it would hit about 540m OS, and that's not taking into consideration that it's coming of Avengers so its bound to have had a substantial increase in new audience.

Neo Posted March 15, 2013 Author Share Posted March 15, 2013 Pacific Rim will do 1B. Lowered my predict slightly below 1B, but would be a great achievement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessie Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I can see Hobbit 2 dropping from Hobbit 1 if it drops to $270m in the US and a drop in Europe too. The Hobbit made 1b with bad trailers, not so great reviews and pretty good WOM. I think an awesome trailer will be enough for TH2 to increase. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bapi Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Pacific Rim will do 1B. *fanboy alert* I think we have only 15 1B+ movies and only one of them is 'original' and I don't Pacific Rim is another Avatar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 At least fanboys have balls. Because predicting 1b ww for your average sequel or franchise movie doesn't require any. Just sayin ' ... I hope we will have a blockbuster that surprises us this year and Pacific Rim fits the part perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishstick Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 (edited) Next 2 billion movie is more ballsy to predict than next $1 billion but I agree we need something that isn`t a prequel/sequel/zzzzquel to hit the mark. It`s pretty embarrassing that out of 15 that crossed the mark only 2 are really original (aka not based on an existing source) and only 3 are not a sequle/prequel (said 2 oriignals and AIW). It`s worth noting that original 2 are also by far the biggest grossers since they are the only ones that broke $2 billion barrier.
