Noctis Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Avengers did nearly $300m more than GoTG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennaJ Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 So you are expecting an increase? OW? Yes. Overall depends on quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Preview percentage of opening day: TA1 - $18.7m/$80.81m = 23.14% IM3 - $15.6m/$68.86m = 22.65% TA2 - $27.6m/$85m = 32.47% A lot more frontloaded. On Saturday, TA1 jumped 12% and IM3 jumped 17% from Friday business. With more frontloading this time and the big boxing match Saturday night, it's going to be very difficult for this to match even TA1's 12% jump today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayumanggi Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 OW? Yes. Overall depends on quality. I was talking about the total. Sequels normally increase in their OWs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilmBuff Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Last night I went to sleep thinking it was 95-100 mil. Now it's at 85 mil? Fuuuucckk. It's not breaking the ow now. Probably headed for 185 mil. I wanted to see a 100 mil od! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJG Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Furious 7 could still be just one of those freak results we get from time to time. I still think that several movies will make DH1s position more and more irrelevant by 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I was talking about the total. Sequels normally increase in their OWs. You can t always increase from huge, stupid numbers and Avengers OW was huge and stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmnerdjamie Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I think Coolio predicted $485m for AoU. He'll be closer than anybody here. A few of us predicted sub $500M on our podcast, if you'll remember... and got viciously attacked for it. Karma is a bitch. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderByte Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) Noctis is like Michael Jordan fans who seek out positive comments about LeBron James so they can declare victory in a fight that doesn't exist. This is so true. Edited May 2, 2015 by SpiderByte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart360 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I still think that several movies will make DH1s position more and more irrelevant by 2018 Oh for sure. I just feel that some people think 'everything has changed' with the success of Furious 7 but we don't know for sure yet if you know what i mean.

Neo Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 So it's going to do some thing like this i guess ? Thursday : 27.6m$ Friday : 66.3m$ (93m$ / +140%) Saturday : 68m$ (161m$) Sunday : 49m$ (210m$) Sunday drop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfirebird2008 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Last night I went to sleep thinking it was 95-100 mil. Now it's at 85 mil? Fuuuucckk. It's not breaking the ow now. Probably headed for 185 mil. I wanted to see a 100 mil od! I agree that TA1 will probably still keep the record. $200m is still in play though. Just needs an awesome Saturday and excellent Sunday hold (closer to TA1's 18% drop than IM3's 30% drop). Previews - $27.6m Friday - $57.4m Saturday - $63.14m (+10%) Sunday - $49.25m (-22%) That would give it a weekend total of $197.39m, which is firmly in Puerto Rico territory. If the movie can jump 10% today from Friday business, Disney would be well within their rights to report $200m Sunday morning and fudge if necessary given everything Paramount has done in recent years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
