K1stpierre Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 It's in no way a meh number. That's a pretty fantastic number for Marvel brand movies. This could be bumped to 92M OD for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Exhibitor Relations @ERCboxoffice now16 seconds ago AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON debuted with a mighty $27.6M last night--far above the original's $18.7M. Midnights only versus 7pm though. Looking at Tele and Spizzer's sellout count I thought 32-35M was on the table since it had more show times and sellouts than BD2 and TDKR with additional 3D bump.

CJohn Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I really hope the boring numbers end here. Either go over the OW record or crash. Right now I am thinking 195-205M witch makes me sleepy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aplandg Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Surprised at the IMAX record considering it wasn't filmed in IMAX whereas DKR was. My goal for this has been simply to beat the $207m of Avengers. I still think it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Midnights only versus 7pm though. Looking at Tele and Spizzer's sellout count I thought 32-35M was on the table since it had more show times and sellouts than BD2 and TDKR with additional 3D bump. Based on the urban reports from Tele/Spizzer and the actual revenue, you have to conclude that the rural areas didn't do as well for previews. Probably will be a lot more backloaded in those rural areas over the weekend. That said, it's a very good number and I dare say something crazy like $250m isn't off the table by any means. IM3 and TA1 both had a 11 multiplier from their previews to weekend total. $27.6m x 11 = $303.6m. I think it will be more frontloaded than those two, but even so it has the potential to put up a truly jawdropping number this weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poseidon Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Still can't believe the expectations. IM3, that worked as a direct sequel to Avengers, with a big boost in OW, "only" did 15,6m. Age of Ultron literally crushed that number and people act like it did an Interstellar here. That number is spectacular and pretty much nothing else. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 44% 3D share. In the expected 40-45% range. Avengers had a 55% 3D share in 2012. However nowadays movies don't get that high a share anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
